The emotions you conveyed in these characters are really impressive, especially Laudna and FCG. You could really see Laudna’s inner-turmoil/conflict through her face and through Delilah, and at 1:51 when her reflection is on one of FCG’s lens. That’s a really nice element, paired with the quote, “This isn’t who you are.” It’s like she’s fighting herself on who she is as a person, whether she is alive or not, or if her friends are going to betray her or not. Also, I really love how FCG started from looking like a small child who doesn’t know what they did wrong, to blind-rage. Honestly, well done. :)

Seeing Laudna, who is normally such a nice person, suddenly grow a deep intent to hurt, shows how quickly she grew attached to the group and how much it hurt for her to hear what F.C.G. said. She might be the most optimistic member of the group but when she falls, she crashes hard. I like that detail. She isn't naive due to the life she led, but she gets hurt easily when her friends are being angry or mean to her (which based on F.C.G. and Imogen, might actually happen a lot).

I feel like this is FCG unintentionally parroting back insecurities and fears he's picked up on from the party. We've seen them get mixed up with their identity before, muddling the troubles of those closest to him with his own personal thoughts. Letters has a drive to experience empathy, to understand and help the people around them through their troubles, but as an imperfect creation, I wonder if he isn't internalizing those troubles in a much more direct way than we can see...

It takes what was a ten minute scene when everyone was deliberating or talking in session and only shows the results in world, so FCG was *way more responsive* than Sam made him seem. I suppose that makes sense with robots thinking faster than everyone else. Ashton with the fucking dive tackle though, wonderfully done!! Also holy shit I didn't catch Fearne being her younger self for an instant as she was listening to him because what he said hit home. (Also I know this is a long comment but those sound effects!!!! Love the one FCG made when he whirred up and spun around to attack)

I love this scene so much. Simply because it’s so different from everything thus far. We’ve had players vs player before but this stands out to be something entirely different, because normally that’s due to differing opinions or wanting to solve something. This is done purely out of newly lit hatred and piling stress. And the way FCG insults and burns the party with his words makes you clearly feel the emotions and difference between how he normally is Whag also helps is that the mood around this party prior to this was just fun and happy, even the action of Chet hitting FCG was just funny and had no hostile intentions, until it makes a full 180 to complete murder
