this expression update is A LOT ;___; (tv vs. dvd/br)
with his eyes not meeting yuuri’s, it was easy to read insincerity or hesitance into his expression, and i always hated that—it didn’t fit with how i read the episode overall or where i believed their relationship to be at this point. but now! there is so much love in that face! he is tired and the last 48 hours have been an emotional rollercoaster but he has so much love for yuuri and feels so much through yuuri and it all fits now, this face shows exactly where victor is right now and reframes this scene to say what i’d always wanted it to mean
