The "( ̄ー ̄; )ゞ" emote, also known as the "Fine But Upset" emote, typically represents a person who is trying to appear calm or indifferent on the outside, but is actually feeling upset or frustrated on the inside. The raised eyebrows and downward mouth suggest a conflicted or uncomfortable emotional state.
