An audio-visual trope found primarily in cartoons, the [[Alertness Blink]] is a short chirping sound played when a character becomes aware of something. Usually associated with a flash near their head as a visual cue. Commonly comedic in nature. This trope originated in [[Western Animation]] before the advent of dialogue as a visual indicator of shock or surprise. It would often be accompanied by a sharp [[Mime and Music Only Cartoon|note]].
