I lost my MIND when Milady de Winter confidently strolled into the room to falsely testify against Ninon, and there you have Athos in the background
Stoic, composed Athos, performing as nothing less than a perfect soldier
And the second he hears her voice the façade melts away like candle wax
The acting skill alone !!!
For his mask to just slowly drip from his features and reveal all the layers of emotion left behind. Disbelief, grief, guilt, fear, anger all in a matter of seconds.
That's probably one of the only times Aramis and Porthos ever saw Athos so completely vulnerable to his own emotions, and even still he doesn't tell them the truth afterwards which demonstrates just how much control Milady has over his psyche that he'd almost reveal his darkest truth.
Just !!!!! Will be thinking about that scene for a long time
