Percy's little head shake when he realizes he has to leave Annabeth behind? the way he presses his lips together like he's trying not to cry and his jaw is trembling? hello???
but then his exhale when he sees that she's there with him on the beach and she's okay? the way his lips start to turn up for the beginning of a smile and all the tension leaks out of his shoulders immediately? HELLO???
there is so much to be said about the way i feel you linger in the air discusses queerness and queer allyship in a historical context and i can't really put it into words right now but just know it means EVERYTHING to me
No I'm not done. Bryce Pinkham, you little shit, why are you so good?
No seriously... as sad as everything was, drunk Stolas is probably my favourite Stolas so far, and a lot of that is because of the voice acting from one Mr. Pinkham.
Last episode was a Brandon Rogers episode, he slayed his voice acting in full moon, but Apology Tour is all Bryce's finest moments (to me at least)
He's always been fantastic at singing his emotions but we do have a few fantastic moments where his overall acting just shines so bright. Previously, my favourite examples of this was:
- Him trying to explain to Octavia and stumbling hard on his words in Loo Loo Land ending on "I'm sorry, I- I don't have the words". That line felt soo real and hit me deep.
- His rant to Stella in s2e1, honestly the entire thing is great but when he starts yelling it's fantastic.
But this one... especially as drunk Stolas (cus what a fucking convincing drunk he made. Honestly they all do, drunk Moxxie and drunk Blitz are both great). But just...
- Stolas' "oooh lucky me!": fucking gold, great comedy 100/10
- "why did you show up there? why did you show up here?"
- His rant about the party and how much people cared about Blitz in order to hate him that much. "They throw an entire fucking party about hating you, EVERY YEAR"
-"Oh fuck you..." after his dramatic telenovela moment.
- Just... "You! Why are you here? I don't want you here, go home pls...." actual tears... what an actual tearjerker. I had the exact same expression as Blitz.. man.. I wanted to hug him so bad.
Man you two weirdos really bring your whole ass pussy into your performances, don't you?
dude I was looking through clips for a reference image and it literally makes me sick with anger that Genndy chose to portray Africa like That. Literally racist caricatures like come onnnn man. The worst part is that I really want to LIKE that episode aside from the art direction. His mentor is a very sweet guy and I like Jack’s little rivalry with the other kid. I dislike that Jack has to save everyone and the other tribe is portrayed even worse, but at least Jack isn’t fighting by his fucking self the whole scene. there was so much potential in this episode if Genndy hadn’t been so fucking racist with his character designs. I do not fucking understand why he chose to make them absolutely pitch black in color. That’s not what humans look like. It’s like how he colors Jack straight up yellow sometimes. I know during the time this came out it was not very likely for bigotry to get called out but that had to have made some people uncomfortable. Jeeeeesus Christ. The guy portrayed China more respectfully than he portrayed literally any other culture including Japan lmao. Actually I take that back he gave quite a few Chinese characters racist accents. The man wanted a ‘multiethnic’ feel to his show but could not fucking stop being white and racist for it
I forgot that the point of Digital Circus is that it’s supposed to be super fucked up under the bright colors but honestly I was not prepared for any of that
