who’s gazing who?
One of my favorite things about The X Files is watching Scully watch Mulder and watching Mulder gaze at Scully. Why is it so damn entertaining and adorable?! I’m torn between GA and DD being great actors and adding these micro expressions in naturally; or that they get bored listening to the dialogue so they just entertain themselves by staring at each other. Both actors seem to legitimately enjoy looking at each other acting or not (David talks about how Gillian’s nose moves when she talks and he loves watching it), so it could really go either way. To their acting credit GA doesn’t seem to stare at costars in her other roles and DD does a modified version of the pining gaze after Karen in Californication but it is definitely distinguishable from the Mulder stare. Would love to hear thoughts on this, but I definitely appreciate there are other MSR voyeurs in the fandom because the gifset creators deliver incredible gaze content.
