Sorry if this has been discussed but I'm just wondering about the postures and body langauge in ME2. Most of the time, the chars, NPCs would have generic gestures ;

crossing arms (protectionism? defensive?)
leaning to one side (half-receptive?)
rubbing back of neck (embarrassment?)
shrugging (atypical)
shaking of head (atypical)

Then there would be some few varations, noticeably on 3 occasions when Shep was subtly touched on the right arm by 3 Asari; Liara, Shiala, Aria. Whether it's of significance or no on the part of the Asari, or simply just an offhand gesture is the question (other than they are obviously the more tactile race than the rest). The rest, including Samara, have no particular gestures, there's always the maintained distance. One could only get the most clues of their emotional state from their voices, especially Tali. Mordin, of course, has fast actions (rocket hamster Posted Image) while Grunt is well, just grrrr. stomp, stomp. Garrus doesn't stand out though he should. Thane reminds me of a lizard. But they don't seem to have a .. quirk, so to speak, that marks them out. Perhaps I miss them but have the rest of you noticed any?

-Mordin's *sniff*s: Indicative of feeling strongly about something, or to tease those who know what the sniffs mean.

-Tali's head-positioning: Same as humans, she just does it a lot more because she has to, being in the suit.

-Grunt's fist-pounding: GRUNT SMASH!
