| Perpetual Frowner | comment |
A character whose default or most frequent appearance/model is him/her with a serious upside-down smile, even in the most pleasant of situations. Though it can be compared to The Stoic, Perpetual Frowner differs in the simple fact that rather than wearing a face of indifference, the character perpetually expresses the biggest, ugliest frown he or she can make on their face. Usually comes in three varieties: mopey and listless, angry and angsty, or focused and serious. In many cases, the look of extreme tension continues even when they're asleep. For series where character background and development is allotted, it may later be revealed that the person expresses the demeanor as a result of living or having lived a harsh or tragic life. Extra points if the character also displays a habit of keeping his arms crossed along with the constant frowning for that extra pouty look. If the Perpetual Frowner actually does smile, it either signifies that the character has found a reason to be happy and enjoy life again, or it is one of the most potent sources of Nightmare Fuel you will ever come across. The smile may also be forced upon another by someone. If the expression is not voluntary but the result of damage to nerves or the like, it falls under Frozen Face. Compare the Aloof Big Brother, the Deadpan Snarker, The Comically Serious, and The Eeyore. Contrast Perpetual Smiler. See also the Death Glare and the Clint Squint. |

Terry Hall was well-known for this in The Specials and The Fun Boy Three. The title of his solo album Laugh played on this reputation, and its cover photo of Hall actually laughing stands out as a notable Out-of-Character Moment. | |

The Quiet One | |
| Perpetual Frowner / int_1da5941e | comment |
Overlapping with The Quiet One, the ten year old Elesis/Ellie from Tokimeki PokéLive! and TwinBee has one of these of the focused and serious variety on her face when she enters her rarely seen secondary "serious mode" personality. Subverted in that she's usually the smiling, cheerful and talkative type character otherwise. | |

Sad Clown | |
| Perpetual Frowner / int_3f89452c | comment |
"I snarled", "I glared", "I scowled"... Harry Dresden is very much this. This is notable, given the fact that he spends most of his time cracking bad jokes—though part of it might be to do with the fact that he puts great store by intimidating the monsters he deals with on a regular basis from the off, so they're less inclined to try and have a go. | |

Rocky rarely shows any happiness and even scowls in his sleep, possibly because he's Surrounded by Idiots. There's also the fact that his youth was much more traumatic than he lets on. | |

Mike Warner has smiled about ten times over a ten year period of existence. These smiles only appear when he's completely hammered. The comment section following this comic and Amber's reaction kind of says it all. He has smiled twice while not drunk (warning: both links are disturbing) and only looked truly upset once (warning: link contains major spoilers). | |

Star Wars (Franchise) | |
| Perpetual Frowner / int_816a4e80 | comment |
Mace Windu from the Star Wars prequels looks like he never learned how to smile, even before the Clone Wars began. According to the novel Shatterpoint, it's been years since anyone's seen him smile; he makes one half-hearted attempt early on, but quickly gives up. | |

Ultra Magnus, stern lawman to a fault, is never seen smiling (except twice, the first he regretted ever since, and the second was to save everyone's life). It's been so long since he smiled that the parts of his face responsible for changing his expression have rusted in place. | |

Subverted for Kyril. He's a Consummate Professional who leans towards The Stoic with the emotionless visage, giving the impression of seriousness or mild annoyance all the time, but he does give a thin smile underneath his bandanna more than once. | |

Broken Bird | |
| Perpetual Frowner / int_d08595d3 | comment |
The protagonist Gray starts the story as a Broken Bird with a perpetually stony expression, only broken by an angry scowl or, on a very rare occasion, a smug smile after defeating one of the local bullies. His Character Development is shown most significantly when he not only starts to smile, but does so regularly. | |

Psychotic Smirk | |
| Perpetual Frowner / int_d485cb13 | comment |
Thanos is a mixed bag — like in the comics, he's capable of a Psychotic Smirk and Slasher Smile, but most other times, he has somber frown or a scowl on his face. At the end of Avengers: Infinity War, he has a peaceful smile after killing half the universe. | |

Despair Event Horizon | |
| Perpetual Frowner / int_dda99fa8 | comment |
Lord Droon, the villain of Dr. Seuss's early picture book The King's Stilts, is described as a "scowler," mutters that "the lines at the corners of the mouth should go down," and loathes smiles, fun, and anything that seems unserious or undignified — so much that he endangers the entire kingdom by stealing the titular stilts, pushing the king toward the Despair Event Horizon. | |

Opposite-Sex Clone | |
| Perpetual Frowner / int_e9702c83 | comment |
Logan's Opposite-Sex Clone X23 smiles even less than him, mainly due to her Dark and Troubled Past toughening her up and giving her intimacy issues. Averted with later comics where Laura can be seen with the occasional smile on her face, the X-Men have rubbed off on her. | |

Miss Sanchez from Shark Tale, mainly because she's annoyed by any stupid thing Oscar did to ruin her life. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| Perpetual Frowner / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Initially played straight with Drax and Gamora, who have near permanent frowns on their faces just like the comics, but thanks to Star-Lord, they both brighten up immensely. Drax in particular, despite his Dark and Troubled Past, is capable of fits of laughter. | |
