One thing that really adds to a messy scene for me is if the model strikes "helpless hands" poses as she receives the mess. Below you'll find a treasure trove of "helpless hands" pics that I love. Please post some of your own faves!
(Because my tastes are very pie-dominated, most of the pics I've selected lean heavily to the pie side. But if you're more of a slime or gunge fan, or whatever other substance you favor, feel free to post helpless hands pic from those genres.)
Helpless hands are absolutely my favorite reaction! The best reaction hands down (pun not intended) is when the victim's hands go up far too late, in a totally futile attempt to block a pie that's already hit its target. That image is truly a chef's kiss!
So, this is interesting to me. I never noticed or paid much attention to "helpless hands" before. That is, until someone on this forum mentioned them. And now not only do I notice it, I really like it. And that may have been you Gurph Morlicks!

I had the exact same realization. Turns out quite a few models go to that reaction organically!
i also realize now i love these pics! and scrolled through 2/3 of the wifies albums and now see she usually keeps her hands at her hips, on legs, or knees, but rarely has them up. and some are posed like to said keep your hands up or say "IDK?!" but if shes cool with it ill upload some or all, she makes that final decision or says ok with edits. also feel like it could also be "jazz hands" maybe it was all the coffee today and lack of sleep / staying up WAY to long past bed time
also is it considered helpless if her hands are bound together? or more like i don't know what to do with my hands and the models or our wam partners know not to wipe to block the pies/ slime/ gunge?
I've always enjoyed this sort of reaction in WAM (I try to use it in illustrations when I can), although I strangely can't recall many occasions where I saw it discussed or given a name (I think I once referred to it as an "exasperated shrug"). Great to see that there are other connoisseurs out there!
While queueing up some future download release scenes this morning, rememembered this thread, thought people might like this one. Friday has just lost a round of the game she was playing, so Miss Abigail is filling the front of Friday's lovely white tennis dress with cold gloop, and Friday has to just sit and let it happen, and her hands are saying it all!
Thanks for the great response to my thread, so happy to see how many people enjoy the helpless hands as much as I do! Here's a second round of helpless hands pics from me.

It probably was me, Man. I'm always going on about my beloved Helpless Hands in threads and in comments on pics. A lot of the pics I comment about this on are, in fact, your own work! Your models seems to be especially gifted in this area. I realized that I haven't featured much of your work in my earlier posts in this thread, so I'm going to overcompensate in this one with a bunch of pics from Man + Wife productions, because you have tons of great helpless hands poses in your scenes!

Thank you for the compliments and shout out my dude!
Interesting take on reactions. Went through many AI pics and found few with "helpless hands". Resigned is the most common, which reflects what's on the world interweb.
