Ignore my previous post. My favorite character isn't Homelander anymore - it's this guy.

I'm so serious.

I've rewatched this scene about a dozen times now simply because I get a kick out of seeing 'Homelander' moving so freely / fluidly. Don't get me wrong, I love how composed the real Homelander is (almost) all the time. Hands behind his back, sometimes on his hips if he's feeling really sassy. . .

But I tend to draw him in some very exaggerated poses ( flaunting some pretty out-there color palettes ) so getting to see an iteration of him moving so animatedly while wearing this delighted me on what can only be described as a primal level.

#Smarty Watches The Boys (S4)#This is not to say that Toni Starr's performance *isn't* animated #He's extremely expressive - It's one of the core reasons why I love HL as much as I do. But . . .#Homelander's flying can look a bit stiff at times #and then we have this guy on screen for less than four minutes and he's gliding around so smmmmooooth #. . . It scratched a very specific part of my brain just the right way. I DON'T KNOW.#I am not immune to Eric Kripke jingling car keys in front of my face. I ate this up.#If this is how people felt during the musical number in the last season - I apologize. I get it now.
