Deer-in-the-headlights Affect
So comfortable with that dazzled look. Mind, not just a look, mind you, not false, for false would be sly, but the daze comprehends him.
To say this is affect would be to speak half-truth - somehow, it is worn entire. Space without a breath. Meanwhile, a consciousness stirs...
Properly estranged from these facts, it smiles, you will be yourself again.

I must add that there do exist some genuine cases -- most of them in the academia.
There was this deer we knew ... a math grad hint hint. I once observed him cross a busy street oblivious to the traffic. When a car came to screeching halt, nearly running him over, he gave a start and stared as if it was the last thing he expected to see on a road.
