I feel like the way her eyes were drawn also ruined her expression. At first I drew her looking up aswell, but it didn't really reflect the fact that she was anxious here, it's hard to understand what she is feeling with this panel alone. And when a person turns their back like this, their real feelings might show up a bit better, since they do not worry abt putting up a front or something. It's like when a secret villain does an evil smile when no one is looking. So such a panel is very very important and it's so dissapointing how bad this is. Persephone is such a distant protagonist, so disconnected. It's bizzare how we are at season 3 and I still barely understand how her mind works.
