One of my favourite hcs that's going into this fic is that as a human now, Greed has extreme memory problems. A human brain isn't really made to hold ~200 years worth of information (plus anything 'pre-programmed' into him by Father) and now that he doesn't have a philosopher's stone that would otherwise be storing everything, his brain gets overloaded and he loses track of things a lot. It's not in a linear fashion either, sometimes he gets mixed up on which memories are what's going on in the present, which leads to consistent problems in remembering that he's not a homunculus anymore even years into living as a human. He draws and writes things down with dates/names when he can remember them, to declutter his thoughts and have something to reference when he gets confused. No one really realizes that it's going on for a while since most things can either be assumed to be him being weird on purpose, or he would brush off as still getting used to things, which would be enough of an excuse for most people
#this all tangentially connects to that one hc i've talked about on my main(?) where he has a sixth sense for his possessions#which he doesn't have anymore and causes a lot of anxiety as a result#so he labels basically every bit of storage and shelves that are his with extensive detail on what should be there#(this isn't foolproof because he misplaces things a lot but he's trying)#i was gonna post a snippet with this but i don't have a good one rn so i'll do it later i just wanted to put this out here <3#greed fma#it can go in one (1) main tag as a treat
