People are gonna hate me for this
But I headcanon that Rob killed someone before.
When someone draws a tawog group picture but they don’t include Rob
rob's static 📺
if you're not aware, rob's static changes with his emotions, so i decided to analyze it for fun in a stupid post with gifs <3
dark: rob's static turning dark is generally for negative emotions, but not exclusively so. it's most often shown when he's feeling grumpy or evil, but also can indicate sadness, guilt, pain, realization, physical effort, or just being theatrical.
bright: his static getting brighter is often for joy or confidence. it's associated with adrenaline like excitement and surprise, as well as distraction, confusion, and tension. in the case of intense, aggressive anger, his static turns bright instead of dark.
flashing: his static flashing quickly between bright and dark most often indicates intense anger. the static having a single bright flash can show sudden pain, especially if followed by darkness. a slower flashing can mean fear or panic, like a warning signal.
rapid: the static speeding up significantly is like a heart rate speeding up, and is another sign of intense anger. it also occasionally means fear, excitement or confusion.
okay so "dead" and this next bit aren't really emotions, but they are worth mentioning. when rob is dead (or at least paralyzed?) his static goes dark and very slow, and because he was literally turned off with the remote, a power sign is displayed.
as far as i know this only happens once, in the scene shown above, but his static can zoom in/out to display him tensing up and relaxing.
and that's nearly all i have to say about that! btw the animators don't do things with his static in every scene, sometimes it just stays, well, static LMAO
here are some extra examples from the show:
