You know, i think the weirdest thing about people tagging my art “parental Royed” is that they clearly don’t mean it. it’s never about exploring any actual relationship these two characters have, it’s just a panic-label lest Someone online sees two men standing in the same image and instantly accuses the reblogger of pedophilia (never child soldier endorsement tho. Funny how that works). They’re like “if only I forcibly smush anything I see into the Found Family box then surely nobody can accuse me of homosexuality i mean being seen with the devil i mean UnChristian Thoughts. Surely this will protect me.”
Genuinely, if you see an image of two men interacting in any way and your first thought is “oh shit, I better make sure there’s no GAY PEDOPHILES in here!!!!”, consider who and what ideological position you are serving
#literally it’s never about the characters themselves. Guys cmon i thought we were in fandom#’ parental roy ‘ the man is a war criminal who literally only notices ed’s existence when it impacts his job and ambition.#if you want to explore this as a parental relationship to ed then EXPLORE IT! THERE’S JUICE HERE! ANOTHER DEADBEAT DAD!#AMAZING PARALLELS AND CONTRASTS TO HOHO!#don’t just go oh well if i slap the Parent tag on this freak then that’ll be a magic spell to keep freaks out of my inbox!#bitch the freaks will find your inbox regardless. All they do is look for inboxes just block and move on with your goddamn life#yap yap#fma#also nobody ever fucking remembers Al in the goddamn Parental Roy circus#for the best tbh. He’s off bowling with Sig or whatever while Ed and Roy are frantically struggling trying to escape the Parent Handcuffs
