I can't say completely, but in the first book Estela didn't trust anyone and as things progress she has learned that she can trust this group of people. . . well, most of them. There are still some she doesn't trust, like Aleister, but for the most part she trusts them. I think allowing herself to trust them lets her show more emotion. She always had the emotion, but I think the anger (which was absolutely there) hid the sadness and especially after book 2, she still had anger, but it's entirely pointed at Rourke, so when we aren't dealing with him, we don't see it that much. I'm pretty sure anytime she's been around Rourke, the anger is upfront and center. I'm not sure what you mean by the part about her being surprised or looking straight ahead though.
