You need to gesture like you want to talk, it’s kind of a lean and eye contact thing, open mouth as well.

The only way I can picture this: Face the talker, lean forward at the hip joint as far as balance allows, rotate both arms like V-22 Osprey propellers, mouth wide open without making a sound.

Wait, this is a thing people do when they want to say something? Shit, I need to reevaluate some things. Socializing is hard.
