Other ways to have your pet emote:
-use of the passive voice (if your pet is doing something to you). For instance, "Duerma is poked by her imp."
- You do something while your pet does something. "Duerma giggles as her imp bites %t on the leg."
My pets have always been extremely active in my warlock's life - she's a narcoleptic, and she has them specially trained to wake her up when she falls asleep. XD

You can also do something like this:
Duerma 's succubus says, with a smirk, "Is that an Arcanite Reaper in your pocket or are you just tickled to see me?"
Duerma says: "Ugh! Enough with the stupid jokes already."

Also, while it's not exactly the least cumbersome or most innovative method, my friends and I used to RP 'on behalf of' our pets by using brackets to denote their names.
Two examples:
My Troll Hunter, Marwan, considered his pet tigress, Leilani, his 'little girl.'
Marwan [Leilani] paws at Duerma's feet, starved for attention.
My Human Warlock, Adalrich, used to actually put some effort into training his demonic 'companions' to behave with some semblance of manners.
Adalrich [Zhar'krast] bows respectfully and backs away quietly.
On a totally unrelated note: David, thanks for continuing to share some RP love. I haven't played 'Warcraft' in at least a month (canceled for personal reasons back in December) but your articles always make for great reading for those of us who like to write and RP.

What the hell is up with all these double posts today? I keep getting some stupid error message here at work that says 'Zero sum' or something like that. How annoying!
