oh my g-d, i need to add on.
the fact that the way it's nearly identical. they squint almost exactly the same, the way a real parent and child might. the fact that you can practically see the bells going off in their heads, and the fact that it only really happens when they are addressing each other specifically. it can be easy to miss things when you're addressing a group/being addressed as a group, but when it's just you, it's easier to pick up on things like a distantly familiar voice or just something familiar in someone
once again,,, emmy deoliveira and ryan hurst,,, i'm obsessed
ooooooooh my g.ooooooood, i'm rewatching the mysterious benedict society and just,,, it's so, so subtle, but the immediate hints about milligan and kate the moment they meet,,,
milligan sorta squints and tilts his head, something clearly ringing a bell, and kate's expression changes when he says hello, almost exactly the same, sans the tilted head. it's genuinely incredible to watch the earliest hints knowing he's her dad
#i may already be misremembering but when milligan is telling his story the camera does slightly linger on kate's reaction#it also doesn't hurt that (in my mind at least) ryan and emmy do look slightly similar#like idk you could tell me they were distantly related irl and i'd probably believe you if i already didn't know they aren't#(grammar ??)#idk they just act those little moments so well. the moments where if you know you go 'omg'#or if you're looking back... you can also go 'omg'#or if you're watching w/o the context of either you could maybe figure it out (and go' omg'-)#emmy. ryan. ... i'm obsessed <3#the mysterious benedict society#tmbs
