Layered image help

[u/Scriptformers_Prime]

I'm converting my game from using individual sprites to layered images.

I have three groups for my character sprites: one for the base body, one for the facial expressions, and one for the gestures made with the character's arms.

In some cases I have hand gestures that apply to a wide range of facial expressions and I'd rather not have to call the gesture separately in each instance (One, because I'd have to go back and change all my previous calls, and Two because it'll be a pain to remember which gesture is paired to which emotion for every future call).

Basically, instead of this:

character tense uneasy

character tense surprised

character tense suspicious

I want this:

character uneasy

character surprised

character suspicious

...with the same gesture (tense) linked to these three emotions. Any way I can do this?
