No way the art style makes it very empathetic to humans and I often put myself in the fluffies place when making this stuff which makes for some interesting facial expressions! Like imagining pure terror? IDK maybe like imagining being eaten by a shark or mauled by wolves it’s hard to explain
Having read the story about Melissa and the green foal in can several times , the last time I read it, I felt profound pity for the foal. The terror and fear really shines through his facial expressions, eventually that even an abuser may feel something other than just a murderboner. Great work manages to elicit many emotions out of a single frame.
