Pressing lips together
“... which forced me to press my lips together...”
“...I pressed my lips together...”
“She pressed her lips together.”
“She pressed her lips together, fighting more tears.”
Raising eyebrows
"I raised my eyebrows , allowing that. “Is it as cold as everyone says?”
“If you’re speaking of the winds, yes, they can be brutal sometimes. And if you’re speaking of the general public . . .” He raised his eyebrows. [Both in ch 7]
“Silas raised his eyebrows, looking over at me.“
Smirk
“I saw Delia Grace place a hand on her hip, her smirk saying everything.”
Few paras later
“I smirked at that before turning to Delia Grace.”
Squinted
“Do you know about Crowning Day?” I squinted. (Ch 15)
I squinted up at her. “Where’s Delia Grace?” (Ch 16)"
She squinted at me.
“He squinted his eyes,”
“He squinted,”
“I squinted.”
Nodded
I nodded.
He gave a little nod before stepping back.
She nodded,
Lady Eastoffe took in the horror on my face and nodded once.
"He nodded.”
I nodded again,
I nodded.
He gave me a quick nod of his head.
Smile
“He smiled.”
“His smile didn’t seem as genuine as it had before.”
“He smiled. “...”
He gave me a very thin smile.
"I smiled. “You are the most important thing in my world.”
“He smiled with a shrug.”
“I watched as his eyes settled on the red dress, a smile almost spreading across his face before he realized the girl in it wasn’t me.”
“She smiled, loving the praise. Valentina was a new person when she smiled.”
“When she smiles, you two could pass for sisters,”
"Judging by the smiling faces and relaxed shoulders around the room, it seemed most people in the court did.”
“Jameson smiled slyly.”
"I smiled“
“He smiled down at me,”
"And how he smiled, as if he wasn’t holding anything back, saving his worry and care and affection for anyone else.”
"I feared that something about the set of my smile or the shade of my eyes was going to give me away.”
“A whisper of a smile crept onto her lips.”
“Her smile faded."
When her smile was unguarded, she looked younger, more hopeful.“
“ I supposed the people had never seen this smile.”
“That bright smile disappeared in an instant, and all the light around her died.”
“I gave her a sad smile.”
“He hasn’t smiled that much in ages.”
“Valentina was smiling, wiggling a small leather purse.”
I commented with a smile.“
“I caught him smiling at her a few times when I was very young.”
“I smiled.”
“Ah,” she said, her smile humorless.
“...he offered, a slight smile on his face.”
No,” I said firmly, trying to smile.
He smiled,
Keep your king smiling
I smiled up at Jameson,
“I forced myself to keep a smile on my face."
"I forced a smile and nodded.”
He gave me a small smile, and I did the same in turn.
Delia Grace gave us a thin smile before doing her next steps.“
“I clutched my hands in front of me and worked to pull a smile to my face.“
“I gave her a weak smile.“
“But I smiled to myself,”
“I giggled.”
“She nodded, a whisper of a smile on her face.”
Jameson would expect smiles when I returned, smiles for the rest of my life.”
I smiled“
I smiled. “Yes, it is.”
I smiled at her in gratitude
“but he smiles for me sometimes”
“no one—in the Isolten court could get her to smile”
He smiled.
He smiled, and the world felt right.
“They weren’t smiling.”
It brought a weak smile to my lips.
I couldn’t help but smile at her thoroughness.
