The "(/□＼*)・ ゜" emote or "Shy And Thinking" emote is a Japanese emoticon that represents a person who is feeling shy and contemplative. The two square brackets represent the person's hands covering their face, while the asterisk represents a sweat drop on their forehead. The forward slash and backward slash represent the person's arms, which are pressed against their body in a shy posture. The dot and circle represent the person's closed eyes as they are lost in thought.
