When you walk into NPCs, they get moved a tiny amount. Moving in between a NPC and a wall speeds up the process. (The gap between the NPC and the wall has to be small enough to where you can't fit anymore)
Steps to Reproduce
Walk into an NPC (e.g. Flitt) (Movement is more noticable when moving in between a wall and an NPC)
Keep walking into them in a single direction
