The "(つ﹏<。)" emote, also known as "Nervous #4," is a Japanese-style emoticon that typically represents anxiety, nervousness, or sadness. The character "つ" represents hands clasped together in a pleading or praying gesture, while the upward-slanting eyes and downturned mouth convey a sense of distress or unease.
