The contrast between these two dances!! They both lead Angel in a dance but it's night and day:
Angel's Dance with Valentino
Angel doesn't have a choice in dancing with Val. It's purely for work
You see these moments of discomfort and worry but Angel quickly puts on a mask. It's choreographed and things are prettied up (just the environment and angel's outfit) it's very artificial all the way around for this spectacle/performance
Valentino isn’t just leading, but quite literally is dragging him on a chain
Val’s also not really dancing with Angel, it's closer to Angel doing a performance for Val's entertainment. There's no real connection between them beyond the chains
Angel's Dance with Husk
It's starts more as a small offer to dance, very old time-y gentleman at some formal dance kinda thing
It's this goofy, little spur of the moment kinda of thing just for them. The dancing is a little awkward and imperfect but they're having fun and just a nice moment together.
Husk gently guides Angel through the steps
Husk and him are on even footing, they're both hand in hand and are trying to go through the motions/steps together. This is the beginning of them forming a genuine connection
Listen, I can’t explain it, you ever watch River Monsters? I love this man.
He doesn’t kill the fish, it’s all catch and release to teach us about fish. He has a British Accent and he speaks a bunch of other languages so he can speak to locals. He’s like sixty years old and he’s like “I’m gonna catch a 250 lb shark” and then the shark bites him a lil and he goes “wow, what an amazing animal”. He’s so considerate of indigenous people, going so far to get a full health examination before he even comes into contact with remote tribes so he does not harm them. He’s gotten into a pool with Piranha just to prove that myths about them being aggressive and bloodthirsty are false. He’s gotten into a river with Boto just to find out if they’re worthy of the anxiety that locals have about them.
I. Love. Him.
And I feel like he’s underrated.
This dude is a modern day, fish-oriented Steve Irwin.
