The operations include associating the audio file with an avatar that represents the first participant. The operations include presenting an interactive visual indicator of the avatar among a plurality of messages in the communication session. The operations include receiving, by the messaging application, input that selects the interactive visual indicator of the avatar. The operations include, in response to receiving the input, rendering an animation of the avatar speaking the speech input while playing the audio file.
