To me, this is a very multi-layered scene, where especially Richard shows a variety of expressions and emotions. *Attenborough-voice*: So, let's take a closer look, shall we?

Richard lifts his guitar up to let Paul try the effect button on his guitar. First, Richard is nodding (approvingly? You can see that here, but the GIFset has lower quality https://mrsfitzgerald.tumblr.com/post/753659161850609664/nijmegen-180624 ), but after Paul tried it a second time, he just shrugs and shakes his head, which looks to me like „well, I have no idea!“. I assume, that the effect doesn't work as planned or at all, Richard definitely looks a bit speechless, as if he did everything he could but that instrument doesn't do what it should.

Paul just looks at Richard and smiles, without saying a word.

The thing with the guitar seems to really bug Richard, because once more, he shrugs again and this time, he looks even more helpless. He pulls down the corners of his mouth, lifts his eyebrows, even raises his right hand to gesture. It looks as if he wants to say , „I can't do anything, doesn't work, I have no clue what's going on actually!“

I'm not sure if the arm gesture is just a general „this sucks, wtf“ gesture or if he is gesturing and looking towards the sound engineers...but I think they don't sit opposite the stage but under the stage...

And before this can upset Richard even more, still grinning Paul is probably thinking „this man definitely needs to be kissed right now!“ He was looking at Richards silent lament and is now raising his right arm to initiate a kiss.

Richards eyes are back at Paul and he immediately stops complaining when he realizes what Paul is up to. Pauls hand lands on Richards neck right behind his ear, his fingers tucked up – I think probably because of the plec he still has in his hand – in situations like this I always wish it would be gone so that he could wrap his fingers around Richards neck properly...

Both grinning, they kiss on the lips, eyes closed.

Paul is backing away after it, still grinning – and this whole scene has such a „oh dear, don't complain – I'll kiss you and everything is fine again“ - feel to it...and damn, this is so, sooo lovely and wraps like a warm blanket around me. This is food for fanfiction. Like, the perfection-seeking Richard is complaining about little things not being perfect and Paul listening, just smiling silently...and all he does is kiss him and Richards world is fine again. How heartwarmingly sweet is that...

Richards reaction is the absolute best. In the second GIF, right after the kiss, Richard looks down, raises his brows and does a little „jep“ with his mouth – this is such an honest, spontaneous reaction. I interpret it as the moment where he realises, that his worrying about the guitar wasn't worth it and his slight anger is gone.

He then in the last GIF „celebrates“ the kiss, raises his hand with an erect finger, first points to the sky and then to Paul. His lips are pursed first and his expression changes from what I read as „oh yeah, this was good stuff!“ to „welp, props to THIS man who knows how to handle this/me/people!“.

It goes from celebrating being kissed to appreciating the man next to him.

I read this appreciation from his suddenly raised eyebrows and how he slightly tilts his head, like he suddenly had a really important thought, like „HE is a really good one!“ Richard then turns away with a content smile.

I LOVE this scene, because I could see so much in it. Richard being annoyed because something isn't working as he wants it to. Paul just listening, being slightly amused and defusing the situation with a loving gesture. It gave me room to imagine, how this scene could have ended during „Mutter“-times – and how it ended now, after so much personal growth on both sides.
