Verb Actions
SNAP (body nose) First Person: Cupping your face with your hands, you slyly press your fingers to the bridge of your nose while sticking your thumb inside your mouth.

You coordinate the noise with the motion of your fingers, creating the illusion of snapping your nose back and forth.
No messaging for second person.
Third Person: Cupping <his/her> face with <his/her> hands, <Person> presses <his/her> fingers to the bridge of <his/her> nose. Suddenly, <he/she> pushes <his/her> nose to the right, creating a horrible snapping noise! <He/She> repeats the motion to the left and cracks it back into place.
