Envy Scale 👁
Home: 5/10
While he's content to seeing you and is grateful for the attention you give him, that doesn't stop him from wishing he could actually walk, talk and interact with you like the others.
🏠 you'd sometimes feel his eyes on you, and when you'd look over, he'd have a bit of a sad expression.
🏠 He's happy when you pat his roof and speak to him like another neighbor, shown with fluttering his window shutters and slamming his door with a happy look in his eyes.
🏠 Uses "puppy-dog eyes" from time to time to get himself some love from you.
🏠 sort of annoys Wally, but he chooses to ignore it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wally: 9/10
Even though he loves his dear friends, when it comes to you, he finds himself becoming increasingly... impatient with them. He knows that sharing is caring, but he would really rather have most of your attention.
🍎 He doesn't show his impatience, but becomes increasingly close and clingy to you as time with the others passed.
🎨 He'd often make plans to have either picnics or painting sessions so he could get some alone time and to converse with you only. [Gets inwardly annoyed when someone asks to tag along]
🍎 When around other neighbors, he'll either stand close to you, pressing into your side, or if he was sitting on your shoulder, he'd press himself into the crook of your neck, watching you converse with the others unblinkingly.
👁 Is constantly looking for ways to go home with you, so he could have 24 hours of you to himself.

Barnaby: 0/10
Has no problem with sharing you; in fact as long as he's in your presence, he's very happy. Besides, his puns and jokes are for everyone.
🐶 if your sitting or laying down, he can simply sit himself next to you. And occasionally roll onto his back.
🤹♂️ Feels a sense of pride when you crack a joke or pun, either as a response or inadvertent, as that is a sign he's rubbing off on you.
🐶 Even when not being spoken to, the pep in your voice when speaking to the others makes him smile. Your laughing makes his tail wag, and he'll chuckle as well.
🤹♂️ at some point dosed off on you during a conversation with his friends, just focusing on your voice.

Julie: 4/10
She doesn't really mind sharing you, and is in fact the one to invite anyone nearby to join in on her playdate, but at times she'd want to be alone with you for your full attention.
🧸 Sometimes during downtimes, if someone were to join in your conversation between you and her, she'd pout slightly and wait. Sometimes, she might jump onto the conversation between you and the other neighbor without thinking.
🪀 if she's unable to successfully butt in to a conversation, she'll be a bit pouty and lean against you, tracing little shapes on your side, or playing with your hair if she's sitting on your shoulder.
🧸 Unlike Wally, she's not overly good at hiding her pout from you, and when you recognized this, you'd try to include her more in your conversation with the other neighbor, and play with her in your hands as you spoke. [I.E. Letting her swing on your finger, lightly twirling her hair or idly tapping and fiddling with her horns]
🪀 Inwardly fangirls at the attention and giggles like a schoolgirl throughout the duration of the conversation. {👁 This may cause Wally more impatience}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Poppy: -5/10
She has no issue sharing you, there's enough of your presence to go around. As long as you're safe, and she's within range of you, she's happy.
🪶 She's literally content to just perching herself on your back, shoulder or lap, knitting to herself while listening to your conversing.
🍪 she's happy to be involved with your conversations, and she's very careful with her words.
🪶 sometimes, she'd absent-minded preen your hair during the times she's not being spoken to. She won't even realize it until someone points it out.
🍪 sometimes senses tension with the more envious of neighbors, and will discreetly try to include them into to the conversation.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Frank: 0/10
Even with his reserves about you, he's grown comfortable with your presence. But he's more comfortable with others around.
🦋 is normally with Julie and/or Eddie when around you.
📚 he doesn't talk much; he's content to just listening in on the conversation. He likes it when you talk about things from your homeland or facts about yourself.
🦋 when he does speak, it's normally just questions or comments towards whatever subjects you're talking about.
📚 he hopes one day he'll be able to converse with you one-on-one without being scared of you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sally: 8/10
She cares deeply for all her neighbors, but to be the center of your attention is something she yearns for most. So, it's slightly difficult when you're not completely focused on her.
🎭 having experience in acting, she's very good at hiding her irritation if someone were to snag your attention away from your conversation with her.
☀️ she'll try harder to butt into conversations, as well as try to regain your attention back to her, and is more successful in doing so due to her knowing what to say to pique everyone's interest.
🎭 though there's no true bad blood, she kind of competes for your attention with Julie and Wally. They shoot each other some knowing looks, while they converse with each other, sometimes trying to top each other when talking about things they did.
☀️ discreetly gives smug but playful smirks towards Julie and/or Wally you give her an considerable amount of praise, and giggles softly at Julie's little play pout. However, she feels uncomfortable with the hard staring Wally gives.

Howdy: 5/10
He has no trouble with you having company around, but due to him nearly always working and having little time to spend with you, it's hard not to feel the slightest bit of envy at seeing everyone converse with you.
🐛 whenever you were around, he'd try to be outside as much as possible, sweeping the storefront or stocking the outdoor crates. He's always happy when you greet him.
🛍 sometimes when he's washing his window, he'd watch as you'd converse with others, choosing to be content with watching at how happy and peaceful you looked.
🐛 sometimes you'd catch him watching and invite him to take a break and join, to which he'd happily oblige. It didn't matter if the others were around, he was simply happy to be included and in your presence.
🛍 sometimes you'd just lay out by the store front to converse with him as he worked outside at times.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Eddie: 1/10
Not really a jealous type, as he valued the term "sharing is caring," but sometimes he spent more time than he'd like in the post office rather than you or Frank.
✉️ When he did his routes, he'd do them with a bit of a haste, as he wanted freetime to spend with you.
💌 He's slightly embarrassed, but he enjoys it when you let him ride on your shoulder or satchel to speed up his routes.
✉️ Though he likes to converse with you very much, he finds Frank's flusteredness around him to be equally enjoyable.
💌 He especially enjoys the playful teasing you do towards Frank, and would join in on it, much to Frank's dismay.
Idea is from a reader from my book.
Still open for suggestions~
