yeah I have no excuse except that toby put this line in the game

and this allows a lot of room for her to express with just her eyes, letting them be wide open to showcase a huge variety of emotions:

or express something more subtle, more nuanced:

(don't even get me started on how well her mouth is positioned on her face)

it's even more interesting when you look at her chapter 1 faces vs chapter 2

her eyes add a completely different energy to what should be the same expressions. her neutral face doesn't feel so cold anymore. her smile has a genuine, awkward softness to it rather than being very visibly joyless. even when she bares her teeth there's this new edge of mischief to it...

i think one of the most important things her sprites convey is how actually happy she looks after chapter 1.

her pupils are bigger on this sprite than any other, her mouth gives just the smallest grin and her whole look is so... soft. she doesn't make this face often, to the point where ralsei is caught off guard by it when she (arguably sincerely) makes it during a bit she does with kris.

(he also refers to it as "using that face" which. ralsei how much do you know)

it's just so heartwarming that you can see how much happier she is. she explodes with emotion and expression after being shown so much trust and kindness for the first time in what could be her whole life. someone jumped to take a bullet for her! they changed her life!! and now she would undoubtedly do the same for them! and when she comes back the next day she's SO EXCITED TO SEE THEM AGAIN!!!
