A blend of limply and listlessly, I suspect. There may be some other ingredients in the mix I can’t put my finger on. Perhaps helplessly?
Matt is presented as the likable lead but he’s not. He’s a loser who limplessly falls victim to peer pressure.

Great portion of brushetta and fish carpaccio starters, excellent mains of salmon and ravioli and a free fly floating limplessly in the oasis of house white wine

Not having a limp would normally seem pretty positive, and yet has the opposite effect in your examples for some reason. The situation could be worse of course.
With hands and feet floating limblessly in the air, Ed is a naturally humorous character.
