[QUOTE="zakael19, post: 9676695, member: 7044099"] This is one of the things I really like about the narrativist games that DH has taken a lot of cues from, especially in its Agenda and Best Practices. I play exclusively online without ever looking at my player's faces; and I have multiple AuHD players as well. Relying on things like "[I]creating a meta conversation[/I]," "[I]tell them what they would know,[/I]" "[I]cultivating a curious table [/I](especially the "foster an environment of creative inquiry")[I]," and "gain your player's trust [/I](particularly the checking in with your players when you're unsure what they intend)" all help me move things from tone & voice alone to explicitly stated moments. Eg: I communicate body language and expressions with words and then add the emotion behind it, I'm always stepping into the meta conversation to check-in; ensure we're all on the same page goal wise; see if anybody wants to set up a scene; etc. I'm always asking questions about character's internal lives - feelings, emotional resonances, all that good stuff, and encouraging others to do the same.
