ppl who say freddie doesn’t do emotional rp or is only just doing it now since taylor cried are doing a MAJOR disservice to freddie’s rp talent. that guy’s been rping emotional moments since early s1 (ep 28 with the phonecall is a classic + ep 23 i think? where he reveals morgan is dead) and just because it isn’t a crying breakdown or a panic attack doesn’t make it any less emotional
also while taylor’s been more emotionally resilient than other characters he’s still not an “unbothered king” (gets angry at link when it’s revealed he bugged him for the FBI, is angry occassionally throughout the season but especially at scary during ep 27 onwards) he just filters everything though the lens of anime so it’s easier to process
freddie does an amazing job at showcasing subtle emotions and combining humour with devastating moments (ep 62(?) on the beach where he reveals his “book of wins and losses” and shows that it’s just All been losses - a moment played for comedy but it’s devastating when you think about it) and while the jokes about him being allergic to emotional moments are kinda funny (glenn IS a character who avoids dwelling serious emotional moments to the best of his ability after all - which is what makes him so interesting and 3D) i’ve seen wayyyy too many people take it seriously recently
glenn’s BEEN emotional. taylor’s BEEN emotional. he’s been angry for serious reasons and not so serious reasons, he’s been insecure about the reason his dad left (ep where scary has to insult them), he’s been scared (FBI base - sold out the daddies when threatened with lasers + ran from nicky), he intentionally put on that he was okay with link’s sacrifice until nick was gone because he knew nick would stop him from going back to save him
and if i tried to list every moment of glenn’s i’d be here all day because that’s 69 episodes to get through of emotional development rp. anyway. give freddie the credit he deserves please. just because there’s a comedic tinge or the character likes to repress doesn’t make it any less real of an emotional moment
