My Character's Facial Expressions

Could anybody tell me if you've noticed that your characters permanently change their facial expression and stay like that until you re-log your game? It happened to me twice: once I was selling stuff to merchants and the other time I was crafting. When I switched to "third person" view and looked at my hero he had a strange grim on his face. He looked "upset" with his brows lowered and his nose snarled :)

I'm curious if it's a bug or a feature :P and if any of you had this sort of thing happening to your characters.

    Only time I seen my characters express any emotion is when I make them twirl in the character selection screen.They really don't seem to appreciate it. :D

    He isn't a Nord is he, because that would fit in with the Nord character. :\

    I have noticed this. Sometimes my character will look angry or upset about something. Other times she looks serene and peaceful. I've just decided that she's moody and temperamental.

    Have you noticed how your character will move their mouth some while sitting on horseback?

    I have only noticed this after using the blacksmithing station. My character's face gets stuck in a grimace. When I re-log, the face is back to normal.

    My character randomly looks angry until I relog. I think it's because she doesn't like the eyebrows I picked.

    I find it really funny when you're talking to an NPC and their jaw will get kind of unhinged and stay that way until you close the dialogue.

    Seriously, my character is cross eyed. I look at his eyes for about 10 seconds and they seem to be moving in different directions. I just ignore it, maybe he really is cross eyed.

    I think it's a problem with the character creation itself, if I don't max out the distance between the eyes (Khajiit and Argonian excluded) then they look a bit cross eyed. Also only a male problem. I may be wrong, but the average distance between the eyes of males when creating a character feels a bit too close.

    Do the /sigh emote that changes it back to normal.

    By the way, I wonder if there's a reason why more attention wasn't given to character emotions/facial expressions to a game that is so story/acting focused.
