Alright I rewatched the godforsaken movie for the 21st? time a few days ago, and for some reason I decided to count how many times Alex lips his lips because I noticed he does it A LOT.

So! Like any sane person, I took tally on how many times he did it and in which scenes it occurred, so here is my hopefully accurate counter:

All interrogation scenes with Sally: 7

All jail cell scenes with Sally: 2

Assembly scene where the headmaster calls Alex and Josh out for talking during announcements: 1

Argument between Reverend Donaldson and Alex in religion/history(?) class: 1

In total, we've got at least eleven lip licks from Alex throughout the entire movie. Obviously, I may have missed some, but I counted every one I noticed.

As an expert in the field of severe anxiety, I've observed that Alex licks his lips in tense situations where he feels uncomfortable, put on the spot, or peeved.

Obviously, in every scene with Sally, she's trying to get information out of Alex regarding very recent and VERY distressing events, leading Alex to feel uncomfortable and upset. Also, given that Alex is likely twisting the story to save his skin, he's more than likely nervous. So, that more or less supports the hypothesis that the lip licking is an anxious tic.

As someone with an anxiety disorder, this absolutely tracks. When in high-stress and uncomfortable situations, my number one outlet for that nervous energy is lip licking and fidgeting with my hands. Since Alex is chock full of pride, he's probably less likely to outwardly show that nervousness in the form of anything else but lip licking- it's subtle enough not to attract much attention.

I also observed that Alex never licks his lips in scenes with Nigel. Coincidence? I think not! Since Alex so obviously regards Nigel as a freaky outsider, he likely feels a certain level of control and power over him (i.e. raising his voice at Nigel, scolding him, punching him, pushing him around), and therefore has nothing to be nervous or uncomfortable about. So, there is no anxious energy- or not enough anxious energy- to warrant tics such as lip licking.

On the other hand, in the interrogation scenes, Alex has nearly no power or control over anything besides the story he tells Sally. He cannot easily get himself out of that situation in any other way than telling half-truths, so that anxious energy builds and seeps out in the form of lip licking.

In conclusion, Alex's #1 anxious tic is lip licking, and this post is absolutely unnecessary but I made it anyways because I observe far too much🫶

CROWLEY SSR THOUGHTS

there is zero basis for this, but I can't get this thought of my head

I don't know why I decided to draw it this way

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #(these will be relevant in a moment)#this isn't going to happen. but WHAT IF.#anyway i didn't get him (damnit birdman come home) so i had to look up his story #and let me tell you friends my findings were SHOCKING #crowley canonically likes vegetables which means that the crowley is revaan theory = BUSTED #crowley is sailor venus = CONFIRMED #(i know 'whip of love' is a saying but that's where my mind always goes)#DISCLAIMER: this is (mostly) a joke please continue to hold whatever theories and headcanons you want #but look. c'mon. look over here at this whiteboard i've covered in red yarn.#revaan being a picky eater has come up multiple times and there is an entire whole bit about how much he hated jerky and refused to eat it #and now they've made a point of talking about how crowley will eat almost anything and loOoOoves wild game meat especially #it's SO stupid but i can't help but read way too much into it #(this is tumblr if you don't want to see incredibly stupid overanalysis of anime guys then why are you HERE)#and i gotta hold on to something because otherwise whenever malleus and crowley are onscreen together i just keep going 'same hair color...#unless this is like. some kind of deep cover thing.#lilia doesn't recognize him because he saw him eat a green bean once and revaan would NEVER #crowley's secret is safe for another day #(serious hat on: i do think they're probably connected in some way)#(but there's something deeper going on that we're just not clued into yet that will hopefully explain things)#man forget revaan what if crowley whips off his mask and it turns out he was meleanor this whole time #wait hold on meleanor loves jerky. IT ALL FITS...

I can't believe she turns into a FUCKING bug and no one told me

#so insane to me that i haven't been spoiled about this 500 times from awesome fanart #that i had to immediately stop reading and spend 4 hours making this #anyway. i made the arms of the flight pack squidy cause by the time i got to them i was so sick of drawing buggy legs #wormblr #taylor hebert #my art #traditional #digital #i would've also added bugs around her but its almost midnight and im tired #oh also! originally she didn't have a buggy abdomen and her guts and intestines were kinds hanging out and flopping around #but it got really hard to keep track of it all and it looked stupid

the way kaladin is like. the only character who gets an arc relating to overcoming his prejudices but it’s…him overcoming his “prejudices” against lighteyes…like huh……?

#every time I remember this i feel like I’m reading the books wrong #and I just missed something crucial #alas I do think this is correct! and it boggles my lil mind!!! like HUH????????#stormlight archive #ellie reads #shallan is RIGHT THERE #shallan would be like. I can’t be bigoted I’m friends with kaladin 🙂#😒😒😒😒😒😒😒#I just…..tired. it’s tired!!!!#don’t even get me started on the ‘fuck moash’ stuff….#moash defender til I die also it’s stupid to hate a character bc they’re too morally grey for you….like it’s fiction.#sorry moash made the story INTERESTING !!!#stay mad kaladin wouldn’t be interesting w/out him!!!#im kidding I love kaladin but you get it.#the subreddit hates moash way too much it’s so annoying #like it’s fiction………#they also think Brandon Sanderson is above critique which is also annoying #anyways. love these books bc they’re well written the world building goes crazy and! they’re interesting from this angle and I enjoy #thinking critically about them.

i love when ppl draw bumblebee like the happy little creachure he is but also i love when people draw bumblebee like he's had 500 beers in the last 1 hour and still the pain won't even ebb

#bonus when they do both by making him just utterly psychotic but he smiles so no one notices #i am a shameful idw bee enjoyer but like in the tired af ppl pleasing libra girl who needs a therapist so fking bad but #has 700000 billion duties and 900000000 billion expectations and mean bitches in his ear telling him hes stupid #sense #and not the he feels like an officer sense like no my queen is just a teachers pet doing her best which is her worst im afraid #anyways i love bee hes very indignant and a bitch but also im gonna stand beside her sorry #u do not understand how powerful it was to give him a cane . a literal crutch to hold onto to feel stronger even when ratchet says he doesnt #have to anymore but yet bee still insists bcs he doesnt have time for the repairs itll take when others cannot survive #and 2 it comforts him with support and also power and so he cradles it close with the idea of him being weak & needing smthing else #to make him strong #even tho at this point it's rlly just for comfort but he cant afford to allow himself to have comfort when others cant #or dont need it in his heroism ideals (specifically optimus being seen as so much stronger than him)#optimus also had bee tho. had him. but bee is so self conscious he just sees all his failures surrounding optimus & views himself not a #crutch to lean on but a crutch to optimus' character #he rlly needed rodimus and his fiery upbeat persona so they could fake it till they made it together and he left & fucking exploded #(in bees eyes)#like idk im just obsessed with this little tryhard loser #he islike a sad little clingy mother who refuses to think herself as human. she is just mother. lives off evrryones accomplishments #never her own #idk like hes so interesting tonme i want to kill him teehee #chew on him like sponge cak #bumblebee #transformers #tf bumblebee #tf idw #idw #tf #????#maccadam #i hate not knowing waht tag to use
