Red being the worst at acknowledging his feelings on "Death" was so funny but also very sad ? Like, at the end of the day, they both were in denial to certain levels, but yellow goes through the process of grieveing more properly. Sure he is unfair to Stain but he is lashing out in frustation mostly. When he caves in at the end of the song, is because memories aren't enough atp.

But is not unreasonable, they know Duck is still there, and it hasn't been even a day, digging him out is him mostly thinking out of the box and going against the lesson.

But Red is full on "This is fine 🙃" display, he kinda recognizes some of his feelings but tries to move on fast. Even when he sings part of the song too, he little by little tries to change Stain. He is so determinted to look unaffected but it ends up looking worse for him at the end.

It's hilarious and so sad too like💀

like stain said "...I feel like you have some ...issues you need to work through" to red, indeed stain, indeed

sorry, I re-watched the ep and they are so mean to stain for no good reason lmao

YEAH EXACTLY red is so incredibly repressed but he is so fucking bad at repressing. for someone who speaks almost exclusively in monotone it's always so extremely obvious whenever he is upset and trying not to let it show.

his main coping mechanism is trying to ignore it whenever something painful happens, which makes me very sad, but what is sadder is that it includes whenever he Feels something painful. which might be why, in the rare instances where he loses his shit, it happens so Loudly and frustratedly. bc bottling it up means it's gotta burst at some point even if it's toward unrelated stuff like a Clipboard

i think he doesn't like acknowledging his feelings bc he knows that doing so is Dangerous. every time red gives the world a piece of himself he knows it'll either be undercut or twisted into something horrible that he can no longer love. so he can't be as unreservedly genuine as yellow and he's not adept with adapting his feelings into something palatable like duck. so for him it's easier to just maintain that bored exterior and that means Moving On From Anything That Could Break It.

also he seems to have assigned himself The Levelheaded One? he Does value kindness and it seems like he wants to be a safe place or a grounding presence for his friends. even during his full-on breakdown at the end of transport he's trying to soothe or bicker in between outbursts. even when he's having a breakdown he's trying not to.

but even though he has all of these goals, he just can't keep his feelings from leaking through! he sucks at hiding them! he tries so hard but he is so transparent! it sucks. this sucks. let's put red somewhere nobody will neg him and let him scream for a while

Your presence on tumblr is a little comforting to me. I know that may sound sort of weird considering we’re strangers and never held a proper conversation. I remember when I first got into skz, they had just debuted and there really wasn’t a ton of content of them on tumblr but there were a few creators that I noticed often. And though I never really interacted a whole lot with those creators, it was nice to see them and get to know them from afar. I feel like many of those creators are either now inactive or deleted their account, which bums me out. You’re probably one of the only people who’s still here. And I’m not exactly sure what it is but it just feels a little comforting that you’re still around on tumblr. Maybe it’s the fact that we’re close in age? I did send a few asks in the past too and I remember you being very sweet to me…I actually just reread one of your responses to me and it made me cry a little (in a good way) since I’m not doing so great right now. Anyways, thank you for being here! I enjoy your content (including your rants) and I think you’re hilarious and sweet
