i am going to say something so brave. but i think fanon hohenheim sucks actually and the fandom’s perception of him is so fucking wrong bc they only hone in on the deadbeat dad thing and ignore all of his backstory and character development .

#like don’t get me wrong yeah he’s a shit fuckin dad! but he is not an inherently bad person did anyone actually read the manga #or watch the show. hello.#like. people act like if he Stayed then everything would be okay #but the promised day would’ve happened regardless of if ed and al preformed human transmutation.#they just wouldn’t be directly involved in the plan anymore. hohenheim however Would be #he didn’t leave out of hatred for his family. he left bc he knew there was a lot he had to do in order to stop father’s plan hello #HE DIDNT HATE HIS SONS!! HE WAS TERRIFIED OF HIMSELF AND THATS WHAT HELD HIM BACK #PEOPLE HAVE NUANCE DAMMIT #LIKE YEAH HES A DEADBEAT DAD BUT CAN WE USE. CRITICAL THINKING.#i’m not a hohenheim lover but i’m also not a hohenheim hater u feel me #i just feel like it’s okay to feel bad for a dude who was unwillingly turned into a human philosopher’s stone #i saw someone call him a creep bc he’s immortal and got with trisha who is Not immortal and i #you can dislike a character but don’t erase all of the nuance in doing so hello #sighs. anyways.#good morning tumblr nation :D
