OKAY SO HERE WAS THE THING I WAS EXCITED ABOUT FOR DEBU

I got some inspiration from RTTS's centaurs and parasaurolophus and wondered if Debu could talk through their noses as well as their mouths. I may abandon speaking with their mouths altogether and have their double tongues be like the Uniima where they're manipulatory (though not HALF as dexterous) but It was really appealing to me because their heads are so rectangular and weird and big - It's a DJMM trait but I wanted a reason for it, and with the fact they sing for mates this was something cool i could flesh out!

They have a seperate vocal sac specifically for their nose-speak in their throats, and their nostrils are as flexible as human lips. Which gave me the opprotunity.... to expand on their expressions!

Flaring the nostrils was always a form of expression, but I decided to take a step further and add a dark rim around it, and although it is not shown, the visible area of "inside" the nose isn't pigmented at all - instead of two toned lips, Debu have two toned nostrils.

Flaring the nostrils is generally just an intensifier, and a generally positive one since it implies that you're going to speak loudly, either with pride, excitement, or anger. Closing your eyes and flaring your nostrils is a sign of contentment, but flaring your nostrils with your mouth agape is a sign of excitement. Opening your mouth can be a threat but that's only when the lips are flipped inside out, which means that you are trying to make yourself look bigger by expanding your mouth-glow. Otherwise, you're either shocked or so very excited when your mouth is wide open.

Sadness and the expression of submission are one and the same! When you've already gone low enough to submit, you may as well try to garner pity. The face scrunches up and the nostrils are held a little tighter which implies your voice will be quieter, it is a visual indicator of your soon to be stuffy, squeaky noise. The lips tighten to make the mouth-glow smaller to signify defeat and when in emotional distress, Debu drool. This gives off the look that something is very wrong, because it makes them appear sick.

Then there's disgust. The nostrils just completely close, very helpful to block out smell, and the top lip tries to hide the nostrils too. The eyes are scrunched in the attempt to shield them from what they saw. Disgust.
