i finally got around to messing with clip studio paint's settings in an attempt to eliminate brush tapering and i've been rewatching fma 03 recently, so i doodled ed a few times to test it out.

The real antagonist of Fullmetal Alchemist is the nameless Xerxian alchemist who bought a teenage boy to sweep his floors and then was like "hey, I'm going to take your blood to try to play god, you can't legally say no because I own you. If this, say, backfires horrifically in 20 years time, then I guess it's you and your descendants' problem since it's your blood lmao"

a tag left by @paragonrobits on this post ages ago is still the most insightful comment on FMA's plot I've ever read

Most of the mischaracterization Riza suffers from wouldn’t be nearly as popular if people actually understood why she follows Roy and it isn’t just love and loyalty.

One of the main reasons she stays by his side is because she sees herself as the guardian of flame alchemy. She’s trying to make sure of two things: 1. no one ever gets their hands on it again. and 2. the only person who can use it never misuses it again. That’s why she follows him. She has to. She’s watching the weapon she helped create.

And she has to keep him alive not only because he’s the one with the political power (meaning he’s her only real way to make sure the trials happen), but because he has to live long enough to atone for what he did with flame alchemy. The power SHE gave him.

From Riza’s point of view, every crime Mustang commits is hers too. Every time flame alchemy is used to kill that blood is on her hands too. Every person he killed is someone she killed by proxy.

She’s not just guarding him. She’s sharing his guilt. It’s like she’s trying to atone for her own sins, but he has to atone too so she can atone through him.

I think this Hannibal quote fits them really well: “You and I have begun to blur. Every crime of yours feels like one I’m guilty of.” Like yeah she obviously loves him. But reducing their relationship to just that completely flattens what’s actually going on.

Instead of talking about a fascist that got his karma handed to him, can we talk about the obvious fucking rise of anti-Black violence happening even more so? Trey Reed was MURDERED; it was not a "suicide." This was a fucking lynching by some white man who broke both of his arms and legs and had him hanging from a tree.

No investigation

No public news broadcast highlighting this

His own family having to fight to say he didn't do this to himself.

Nothing.

Not. A. Damn. Thing

I don't want to hear about fucking "compassion" or "understanding" and all this other bullshit when it comes to fascists, white supremacists, white nationalists, and anything that coexists within pure, unadulterated racist hatred. I want you to have that same motherfucking energy when it comes to people who ACTUALLY should be having that, that we should ACTUALLY be fighting for and highlighting what really MATTERS.

Whether you are white or a non-Black POC, if you actually give a fuck and are not performing, make this known and speak on it because damn sure no one listens to us when we say it.
