If a Tabaxi PC is knocked prone and then uses their turn to get up without moving anywhere else, does that let them refresh their Feline Agility racial ability?
Getting up uses half their movement speed, but they don't actually move anywhere.

Best Answer
Getting up from prone uses movement, but is not the same as moving.
The Tabaxi's Feline Agility trait states (VGtM, p. 115):
While standing up from prone uses some of your movement, it is never described as "moving":
All other uses of your movement are described as moving:
I've emphasized the crucial bit: moving involves distance travelled, which is deducted from your remaining movement appropriately. This deduction of movement is mechanically distinct from the deduction of movement for standing up from prone.
Conclusion: You can use Feline Agility after a turn where the only movement deducted was from standing up from prone.
