Emote

Most of the text that's not someone talking is based off of this.

Yes, the displayed message is stored on the datum, it would cause problems for emotes with a message that can vary, but that's handled differently in run_emote(), so be sure to use can_message_change if you plan to have different displayed messages from player to player.
