Embarrassment

The prompt

Cel-shaded comic-book 3D animation close-up of a burly space pirate with a braided beard and a glowing cybernetic eye on a starship bridge, bold ink outlines, locked camera. 0–2s: he holds a communicator to his ear and listens with a confident smirk. 2–5s: his eyes widen and his mouth pulls into an awkward grin as he glances sideways toward his nearby crew. 5–8s: he lowers the communicator, drops his gaze, and tucks his chin bashfully, cheeks flushing pink. Throughout: cool teal and violet bridge lighting, blinking consoles behind him, fixed camera.
