Q: Can we dance on tables?

A: Technically the tables are in world, so yes...^[7] – Steven Sharif

There may be emotes associated with mounts and pets, such as petting, hugging, or playing with them.^[8]

In alpha one you might have seen some of the anims on the rider of a horse that they went down and patted the side of the neck, or they would pet those; but those would be separate actions that you could potentially do as just additional emotes, but interfaces with a mount or pet that you have active.^[8] – Steven Sharif
