I love how fma villains just assumed they were a thing

Edward Elric is a great character (like everyone in FMA but this post is about Ed) not just because he suffers and struggles and goes through so much pain before the end of his story. But because this little dude feels so human!!!

He has a short temper. He sucks at drawing. He hates milk. He’s loved science since he was little. He really likes making gaudy as fuck weapon designs because he thinks they’re cool. He wears three layers of clothing in the fucking desert because he refuses to ditch the badass red coat. He loves his little brother more than life itself and is willing to die for him at a moment’s notice. He lashes out because he’s 15 and doesn’t know how else to handle all the things he’s Feeling. He’s a teenager who’s had the responsibilities of an adult forced on him since his mother died and hasn’t let himself be a kid since then. He loves dogs. He bonds with a little girl because she wants to play with him.

He’s a person. He feels like one. He’s so easy to sympathize with because he’s so much more than just his suffering. You see all his little character traits, and you see a whole person there!! He’s a kid!! He acts like a real kid who’s in way over his head and doesn’t realize it. He’s doing his best. Someone hug this poor dumbass.

Can't stop thinking about how these two scenes parallel each other. Here we have two older brothers, two great alchemists, desperately looking around themselves and trying to find someone, anyone that could help them because they're suddenly alone in the world. And the only thing they want then, the only thing that matters at all, is that their little brothers live. They both lose an arm – their right arm – to get their brothers back. Scar's brother gives it to Scar, so that he may live and continue his work, and sacrifices his life for him. Ed gives it away to Truth, as the price to get Al's soul back, at least – and we know he was also ready to lose more, as he says “Whether it be an arm or a leg, take it! But give him back! He's my only brother!”. And as I said, they're both desperate because even though they're not experiencing grief for the first time, losing their brothers would make them completely alone.

With you I fall down

FMA has really strong "this was meant to be a tragedy but all the characters loved each other enough that they changed the entire course of the narrative" energy

No cause this has probably been pointed out already but can you believe Taylor Swift wrote The Great War about royai?
