[X2]

The Gif Galore thread is now back! You do not need to feel obligated or required to post in this thread. However, as I am more of a visual individual, I personally love finding gifs from my characters human counterparts, to kind of show off and explore the different expressions my characters have. I usually think about these things while I'm RPing and for me, at least, it helps me learn more about my character, helps me explore more of my characters personality, as well as gives me ideas and aids me in my RPing. And considering how rusty my RPing skills are, I need some inspiration. You don't have to go Gif CRAZY, all you have to do is show just a few basic emotions to start off with, if you prefer.

You can add as many as you want, or as little as you want. And heck, if you find more gifs showing off your characters expressions, that you didn't post before, go ahead and continually respond to this thread with more gifs. (I'm not gif crazy or addicted, honest.)

Don't know if this needs to be stated, but here goes:

Don't stress yourself out over finding gifs, perfect or otherwise. This thread is purely to have fun exploring your character or characters and to learn more about other member's characters.

Munkustrap is the "boy-scout", the moral compass that tends to think he's always right. He's a bit on the serious side, and tends to see the world in black and white.

Munkustrap

First up is his resting face. The normal face he tends to have while he's walking around, patrolling, or sitting idly by. Bluntly, it's his thinking face.

 

While he is speaking. Munkustrap doesn't always make or maintain eye contact. But during a conversation, he usually stays engaged.


Munustrap is serious much of the time, considering that he is on the 'job' most of the time. Though this does closely resemble his resting face, one still does not want to cross him when he's got his no nonsense, game face on.


Munkustrap has a nasty tendency to teach the younger generation, right from wrong. Its why he's usually chosen to be the story-teller at the ball. So he does get a particular look when he's about to "school" the younger generation.


Confusion. He gives this cute little quirk of the eyebrows when something puzzles him.


When Munkustrap gets annoyed, it's pretty clear. He doesn't really lash out when he's annoyed, merely walks it off.


Guilt. Munkustrap carries a lot of guilt. And he'll try and keep his stoic serious face, but slowly his crestfallen face will fill with shame.


Munkustrap can get upset, like any normal character. It gets mixed with a bit of disbelief. Munkustrap fights against intense emotions, mainly because he never knows how to handle them.


When Munkustrap does fall victim to sadness, he will still fight the tears, and then sit silently and weep. He does not make a scene or draw attention to himself.


Alert. Being a Protector of the Jellicle Clan, he has taken it as his personal duty to keep the members of his tribe safe. So he tends to be alert and ready for action. He cannot be hyper-aware of his surroundings all the time, but he gives it his best shot.


Happy. Munkustrap is not devoid of happiness, no matter what Tugger might say about him. However, his smiles whether they're small or big, tend to be simple and usually short lived. His happiness is a lot like his sadness. Silent, as to not draw attention to himself. He doesn't shout it to the heavens, he doesn't need to.
