This is absolute water, so this will be a very low effort thread.
Some greys/blues on this site might believe, as I have previously, that infraorbitals and supraorbitals are distinct bones. In reality, the infraorbital is the combination of the inner-facing part of the zygomatic bone and the outer-facing corner of the maxilla. The supraorbital bone is simply the absolute bottom of the frontal bone.
The orbitals as a whole are more complex, and are the intersections of multiple bones(7, in fact).
