He's not looking at the protagonist; how do they know what he's feeling? He could just be bobbing his head or recognizing that he heard the protagonist or he could be flinching.

Battle narrator is a baddie, unlike overworld flavortext narrator. c': Yeah, I don't want to play the RPG  game where I can't trust the battle narrator. The BN is a cornerstone in giving you every important piece of information regarding the battle. I think snowdrakes mom is just special in that regard to instill a feeling of discomfort or fear in the player.

If we can't trust the BN in the ASGORE fight, we can't trust them in any other fight, meaning we have to disregard all the info we learned in those fights.
