#his expressions this whole scene

[skoulsons]

When I was a bit older than you are now, I watched everything I knew burn.

#BUT NOW HE HAS SHIN!!!!!!!! #I don’t give a FUCK what y’all say #his expressions this whole scene #he had to have had a padawan. #HAD TO #the way he nodded at certain parts #the way he was smiling #it’s ALL giving me such a sentimental vibe #and not just for the Jedi #because he does tell shin he misses the idea of it later #but it just. it screams lost padawan to me #yes the Jedi and the values and people he knew all died #BUT JUST. A PADAWAN. IT MAKES SENSE. #IF HE DIDNT HAVE ONE I DONT THINK HED BE AS SENTIMENTAL???? #anyway losing it over this ep!!!!!! got the content I wanted!!!!!!! #ahsoka tv #ahsoka spoilers #baylan skoll #shin hati #also #as your local physical touch girl I am indeed losing my absolute mind about his hand on her shoulder #AND TEH GENERAL PROXIMITY #THEY WERE SO CLSOE TO EACH OTHER ALL EPSIXOE #AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH #im so awfully annoying about them I’m so sorry

Okay this shot of Colin is giving me the vibes of this little part of their first night together:

He's figured out that he loves her before this moment but he's just feeling so much that he also can't believe it's all because of Penelope, his lifelong friend who he didn't even see any other way before this season. He's like: "What the fuck and how the fuck are you making me feel these things" and I LOVE IT

He also looks like he was crying (or maybe that's just me) but that would also bring the whole scene on another level

#that little wonder in his face is absolutely incredible #i've said it once and i'll say it again #luke newton is an absolute genius #his micro-expressions make the whole scene so much better #cause its clear he's not just hot for pen in that moment #he's also like wow i love you so much and im not even sure how that happened #polin #bridgerton #bridgerton season 3 #bridgerton s3 #luke newton #nicola coughlan #bridgerton 3 #colin bridgerton #penelope featherington

patented 'not that I care that much or anything so there's no need to dwell on it too too much ahaha *sweats nervously* but tain would you pls consider not murdering my mom (and the mother of your child) for absolutely no reason whatsoever? no pressure tho of course you know best! :)' smile

(it's so dark but also so funny that when tain keeps on Hinting Ominously, garak's reaction seems... slightly exasperated? more than anything, under all the tension fsdjafsl. this exact conversation has definitely happened multiple times over the last thirty years, lending horror an edge of 'oh this again huh' ennui and hilarity. 'I should have killed your mother before you were born'/'so you've told me, many times'. I think it's the turnaround time from 'I've missed you, Elim' to this that drives it from straightforward psychological horror sneaking dread to still that but also kind of hilarious. it really took tain less than five minutes to go there didn't it. wow. well, actually. I think maybe the real horror part is that garak still loves him and doesn't know how to stop. somewhere in there is a five year old whose heart is a desperate stupid little moth and his father is a ruinous forest fire in the night, brighter and closer than any star. of course it burns you to touch it that's just what love is, right. *spots a smiling julian bashir in the loading bay holding a box of chocolates out of the corner of his mind and experiences something harrowing and existential he simply cannot unpack right in this moment thank you* right???)

#the tain household is a very very dark comedy if you squint at it just right. also a tragedy and a horror of course #star trek #star trek ds9 #ds9 #elim garak #garashir #yeah it got in there I just can't help myself. in my defense that's all right there in the ep lol #his expressions and body language in this whole scene. a gold mine #he's so still and controlled most of the time (in the 'don't eat me' way) and there are moments where he suddenly looks much much younger #you just know he looked at tain exactly like this when he was five when he was fifteen when he was twenty five #and also the half light half dark lighting across his face doing its thing -- man what a good two parter this is

[mayhasopinions]

this is what happened right

#rewatching moominvalley and snufkin's reaction to moomintroll being mad at him is SO FUNNY #bro really went🙁 #snufmin #snufkin #moomintroll #snufkin and the fairground #moominvalley #moomins #he just STOOD THERE staring at him like that during that whole scene #bro just got so pissy his bf expressed mild annoyance with him

[daily-hanamura]

#p4 #persona 4 #p4g #persona 4 golden #hanamura yosuke #yosuke hanamura #god do i have so much to talk about in this scene #first of all yu's hug kills me because thats a very intimate hug thats not a bro hug where you put your arm around their shoulders #thats a hug where he put his arms around yosuke's waist!!!! #when yosuke says that's for girls... i kind of see what he means? personally id only hug my romantic partner the same way but hey #second of all and more seriously i think this is a really good example of how Yosuke's words frequently fail to match up against his action #yosuke might complain about how the hug is for girls but it doesnt stop him from holding on #the scene fades to black and yu says they stayed on the riverbank until yosuke calmed down #so they mught as well have hugged for the whole time? #idk im personally obsessed with the contradictions between what yosuke says and what he does because expressing himself is not his strength #Yosuke's words cannot be reliably taken at face value but i think his friends - and yu especially - come to learn and accept that abt him

#raphael #bg3 #raphael bg3 #raphael baldur's gate 3 #baldur's gate 3 #bg3gifs #this whole scene is amazing and super insightful but i'm OBSESSED with this one look he does #that's different from every other expression that i've seen from him throughout the game #a look of pure utter disgust in a way that's so final #they really did a good job in making you feel like an utter dumbass with this #like you refused his offer earlier but STILL ended up betraying the emperor anyway... and Raphael shows up like “you stupid motherf*cker” #and then if you decide to still refuse him he just gives up on you... realising you're hopeless and not even worth it anymore #good stuff

Me: Finally acquires everything i need, including inspiration, to actually fucking make an animatic

Also me: brain has decided my first ever animatic is going to be a minimum of 13 minutes long due to the specific audio that has made said brain go ‘brr’, thusly i do not get a choice in this

Me: somethings never fuckin change huh

#luka rambles #its a sun & moon show animatic too lol #aka if anyone is familiar with that alternate dimension evil lunar episode. 13 minutes is his rough screen time amt #i got ideas and literally 7 whole pages of expressions alone for evil lunar #let alone the 4-5 pages of scene planning for an important chunk of one scene #and i took some liberties with all the kinds if shit his eclipse put him through #>:) #slow and steady wins the race though #i’m almost a minute’s worth of panels into the project so wish me luck jugjhg #i genuinely hope to finish it

rewatching S6 in bits and pieces for current fic and ahhhhhhhhhh but the whole Jack, Diana, Mosley and Lizzie final dinner is so *viscerally* fucking satisfying on every sensory and intellectual and emotional level of consumption.

#every single movement facial expression breath flick of an eye the choice of 'mosley' not 'mr mosley' #the way mosley says 'lizzie' for the first time #jack's buildup and his mad fucking innuendo just before diana and oswald show #particularly how every drink is taken and by whom and when #lizzie constantly holding herself back the entire time from Saying Something all these flinches and half-breaths #insane #INSANE #as much as the end of S3 is roaringly wrenchingly furiously emotionally good #this dinner is something else #this whole episode is pretty much something else though fffffffffffff #jack's patronising constant reference to tommy as if he's a much younger man/boy when you look at these two guys and jack looks younger?? #by design i am sure #in the scene with the tie before the dinner.the way tommy's face says one thing while facing away from lizzie #then he puts on that mask as he turns to face her and you can SEE HIM DO THAT jesus #it would a writing exercise and a half to actually try to capture that scene in writing and work out what needs to be said/described #to carry the same effect because @coffeeatnight23 -> this scene is totally Tommy ripping his own heart out then eating it with relish :) #it *is* the saddest thing but also a fucking *reclamation* of something that tommy hasn't had since his suicide attempt. there's lots of #small reclamations of self that happen in post-Ruby S6 i seem to recall. despite flicks old trauma/foggy memory wandering also this- #-sort of structural shift/acceptance he is who he is and that is how he has agency (not solely money?) #anyway it's not triumph but there is *something* that i haven't found the word for yet #acceptance is one word but there's something more vicarious and dark in it that acceptance doesn't connote

Had a stressful day and then spent the rest of the evening making a compilation of Terra eye closeups to cope. Did not even remotely help with making me feel more normal but at least now I have much more extensive and obvious comparisons of his ffucking enormous prettyboy disney princess lashes oh my god what is his ISSUE

#saltfish speaks #kingdom hearts #kh #kh terra #kh bbs #twirls hair. babygirl we'll get you some brown contacts dont worry #95% of these are from bbs bc i think almost every character's model looks significantly better in the classic style but also #i couldnt not include an image from that one scene in kh3 his expression there fucking destroys me every single time #the tangible grief and gratitude and relief. aaaaaahhhh (dats me yelling) #also if youre wondering why the quality on many of these is so ass its bc i zoomed in on a bunch of screnshots #and scrubbed through youtube cutscenes to grab some more later. so the jpeg artifacts ate a lot of them. tragic #*SCREENSHOTS im not retyping all of that god bless #also im not tagging The Nort bc hes not the focus here even though i could honestly make a whole new post analyzing his catchlights alone #maybe later. heart emoji #scopophobia #CANNOT believe i forgot to tag that initially i am so sorry

like yes totk is technically much darker than other zelda games, but is there any emotional weight to it? when the plot consists of these out-of-context cutscenes that you can collect in any random order at any point in the game (or not at all) with zero impact on the plot or link himself? somehow the silly toon zelda game managed to make toon king daphnes of hyrule's sacrifice more heart-wrenching than king rauru of hyrule's, and the toon guy was literally a boat for most of the game

#loz #finding the memories is completely optional. does not change the story at all. #you can't just put disjointed scenes of dark things happening in a storyline we're not part of into the game like optional collectibles #and point at those like ''see look how dark our game is'' #maybe you should've let us play some zelda sections to develop more of an emotional investment in that storyline #or maybe given link the protagonist of your game an emotional investment in that storyline #does anything dark even happen outside of those cutscenes #that like. means anything #puppet zelda could have been really creepy if link wasn't standing there like 😐 the whole fuckin time #in botw it made sense for link to be more emotionally detached bc he was an amnesiac and it was part of the tragedy #still could've explored his character more (like in the original japanese) + shown more expression at the end to complete his character arc #but it was a more minor complaint in botw #in totk it's like does link even give a shit abt anything that's going on

a friend who'd wait :)

#im posting this very late because i was sort of weary of how it came out and ended up messing w it until it was like 4am oops. #and i have plans tmrw so... oh well! i did my best and ill put it out while i can! #and i tried to make the scene match barnard's colors lol #finn's ocs #finn's art #i know i said id do more sillay stuff with the simpler screentone only style but i had a couple more of these in me #and this is the first piece im making thats like an actual part of the story too rather than just setting stuff for fun #i wanna write something to go with it too but for now ill just sort of briefly explain the context in the tags here: #barnard has a pretty bad case of OCD and his compulsions have made it difficult to make friends in the past #he was never outright bullied or anything but people just didnt really have the patience to deal with it #he has compulsions that include stuff like walking through doors until it feels right and needing things to be perfectly aligned #which in group settings has lead to people having to wait for him to finish his rituals and join them #they might find it tolerable at first but eventually they grow impatient and hes just... not invited to stuff anymore #but juno is a newer member of the guild who ends up frequenting the same library. hes also kinda a little weird #and they dont become fast friends or anything but just sort of naturally spend time in the same place #though they never plan meetups they eventually fall into a routine. around the same time theyd just both be at the library #and read next to each other. and maybe talk a bit. and eventually they end up walking back to the guildhall together #since theyre going to the same place after all. and juno always waits for barnard outside the door #eventually barnard asks if this bothers him. juno kinda just tells him 'of course it does' without any malice or anything. just a statement #barnard is surprised and apologizes and juno says not to. but the next day juno doesnt show up at the usual time. #barnard assumes hes committed somekinda more by bringing it up. he ends up staying there late reading to get his mind off it & not ruminate #but when he leaves juno is in fact still waiting for him down the hall (see pic) having collected a bunch of books literally abt ocd #he fell asleep bc barnard stayed later than expected. and hes an eepy guy generally. and also one very bad at expressing himself #but now barnard gets that juno's 'of course it [bothers me]' had the implication of 'but its worth it' which no friend has previously done. #and from the interaction juno was also able to understand that this isn't something barnard just does for the hell of it so. he studies. #and checks a bunch of stuff out because he thinks it could help his friend too (theres ocd workbooks and such- i remember working w them) #and thats the point where they became more ''friends'' than ''pleasant library acquaintances'' #from there on they also do get into juno's problems. whole other bag of worms. but this specific scene is more about bernard from his pov #sorry about when i said briefly explain. i lied </3 #but compared to the whole sequence im picturing its brief so shhh

I think he’s discussing a very serious WW2 submarine mission in this scene, but you wouldn’t exactly know it on mute. 👀
