i was looking at the mcr official website from 2004 thru the wayback machine and i found a contest that the band had held for fans to design a single cover for the song of their choice and this was one of the winning designs hand-picked by my chemical romance.

I need to talk about Mustang and all the men in Fullmetal alchemist

ok we all know the mangaka is a woman and like one of the best mangaka ever so everyone is so well written but like when you look at these characters there is so much that is show not tell that you honestly don’t notice until you really take a close look at them and it adds a whole new layer to the atory

like we all know Roy Mustang. Womanizing mini skirt loving PTSD filled Riza loving man. Ok take a closer look

his womanizing play boy act is an act, a persona he puts on to become unassuming and make people belive he would never be a threat. It’s honestly a great job he does to make sure no one knows of his plans to become the leader of Amestris.

where did Mustang grow up again? A brothel you say. A brothel that doubles as a spy and intel gathering operation. Where women used their sexuality to make themselves unassuming and unthreatening. Oh you know like Mustang does in the millitary

and this shit is never said out loud. The fact that Roy’s fake womanizing comes from the women who raised him and taught him all his secret trades. And it’s not something that is too touched on. Mustang growing up in a brothel is more of a joke in most of the fandom if anything but god you can see the impact of it on his story and personality in the millitary

I fucking love FMA

Certain words can change your brain forever and ever so you do have to be very careful about it.

microscopic living stars made of glass that eat the sun. and they're all around us. in every body of water. glass sun-eating stars.

[crabussy]

I like them a lot. they produce up to half of all earth's oxygen. the air you breathe is thanks to sun-eating stars made of glass. and that's pretty cool.

Iron Man 1 really said "the actual bad guy is the white capitalist who is selling arms under the table to both sides in order to extend the war and make as much money from it as possible," and Iron Man 2 really said "the white capitalist who gives a platform to people with bad intentions in order to make a buck is the reason the bad intentions have the opportunity to prosper and cause untold damage," and Iron Man 3 really said "the real terrorist is the white capitalist who will create and use fear to manipulate governments and the public in order to sell a product," and I really don't think enough people recognise this.

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.

that's my fucking guy unfortunately

[shittysawtraps]

how was my weekend? ah, actually, i got put in a saw trap. yeah… luckily it was minor. chewed too loudly in a restaurant near john kramer, so i had to extract my own wisdom teeth. bloody stuff, you know? i mean i needed them out anyway, just would have preferred to do it with non-rusty tools. yeah i had to go get a tetanus shot. huge pain in the ass. luckily this was on saturday and i had all of sunday to recuperate so i could come into work today. i don’t think being saw trapped is covered under FMLA and i’m all out of sick time so i would have been shit out of luck. but that’s life. anyway how was your weekend? oh, you went to the planetarium? that’s pretty cool.

I’m never going to get over the final scene with the gate of truth. How when asked to play god, the correct answer is giving up your ability to play god. 

It even cycles back to Ed’s dialogue in chapter one, with the story of Icarus, because in that metaphor Ed is Daedalus. And just as Daedalus hung his wings in Apollo’s temple, never to be used again, Ed surrendered his alchemy with full knowledge of he’d done, and what came about from his mistakes.

So many people fuck up the story of Icarus when they use it thematically but Arakawa gets it so right.

I quote this and laugh to myself very, very often.
