I don't concern myself with optimization if it's under 15mb,
but thank you for the convenient condensed version.
I'd have rather used pattern dither, but it kept putting dark artifact pixels in her eyes on quite a few screencaps,
it was pretty annoying.
Getting the color gradient colors in her eyes to blendproperly was my main reason to dither this gif to begin with.
Noise can be bad if you look too close,
though I think it is also fine sometimes, especially for 'moody moments' like this.
