Well first sh-shut up you can’t make me happy by saying things like that baka.

Secondly yes, you can, I love strange questions, mostly because I am so very, very strange. I have a lot of very strange habits and hobbies, but being an animator one of my favourite strange things is what I call ‘people watching’. More specifically; watching little nuances that make people who they are, that reveal things about them. Sometimes it’s how they walk, sometimes it’s how they light a cigarette, lick their fingers before they turn a page, tilt their head forward when they’re thinking how to put something politely or back when they’re trying to remember. I’ve been able to deduce that someone had a spinal injury from their limp and that someone had recently lost their ring just from watching how they behaved.

One of my favourite responses to analyze is when someone is eating something new or really delicious for the first time. Everyone reacts differently, but humans are odd because they try to disguise things a lot of the time; with food, they can’t. It’s much harder to hide what you think about a piece of food, especially in the first few microseconds that you take a bite. It’s literally a chemical reaction, so it’s much easier to see a true response. Afterwards of course you have the 'acting’ part, pretending you like it or aren’t so impressed; but it’s actually the genuine, involuntary movements of people’s faces that intrigue me.

Aka I am a creepy fuck and like watching people eat nice things. Sue me.
