“You’re not Hayate”

Full of Mettle by Thornback

[irondadgroupie]

Did you notice how in the beginning Roy's team is just him, Hawkeye and Havoc. And after the timeskip Falman, Breda and Fuery joined?

I headcanon that the three were put into the team when Mustang was stationed to East City. And because of this the team had to learn to work together. Of course with them it was quick since they shared working space but Ed is travelling the country and just never has the time.

So it takes a few months until HR decides the team should spend a few days in training, like Special Ops style. Sleeping in tent, training missions and such, it would be a bit like bootcamp but the purpose was to hitch the team together.

Fuery and Breda, who have yet to meet Ed, are afraid the boy might be arrogant, he is a prodigy after all. Ed is worried they won't like him and will 'baby' him.

"Chief is fine, he will go from 0 to 100 in a millisecond but you'll like him" Havoc says.

Hughes tries to tell Ed that everyone is excited to meet him and to Fuery and Breda he says "the kid is all bark and no bite." He even offers to be a supervisor during this training.

And on the first morning Edward shows up in cargo pants, jacket, shoes and a shy smile and every adult in their head's vow to protect that child forever.

Some other notions, feel free to add:

- Ed has amazing survival skills, he outshines everyone. He can identify every fish they catch and make a fire using nothing but sticks

- Ed is also good with maps. Their training missions includes finding four pitchstops and he quickly becomes their main navigator

- Hughes advices others that the way to Ed's heart is to ask for the boy's help. Fuery takes this advice and includes Ed in his tasks and soon they are deep in talk

- Mustang has already suspected Ed can't swim due to his automail and gets confirmation when the boy absolutely refuses to go to the lake despite it being a scorching hot day. By the last day and after lots of convincing and promises to help if need arose the boy gathers enough courage and enters the lake

- Mustang is already planning deep water rescue training

- Ed is the first to crash at night, which is not too surprising, although he makes a valiant effort to stay awake and is pretty much sleeptalking by the end.

personally I'm annoyed by the socioeconomic conditions that made words like "unalive" necessary but simultaneously impressed by the linguistic adaptations young people have made to continue talking about important things while subject to those conditions and I think if you can't hold both of those thoughts in your head you might just be old man yelling at cloud

[antianakin]

There's a popular fandom trope where the idea of "letting your emotions go" or "giving your emotions to the Force" is taken VERY LITERALLY and the Jedi seem to sort-of literally be able to just... magically send their emotions into the void and stop feeling it somehow as part of their training and abilities. And it really just doesn't work for me.

Because it makes it seem EASY. Emotional regulation is SO HARD, it takes constant effort to recognize your own emotions and choose how to react to them in the moment without letting those emotions dictate your behavior. And the emotions don't just... disappear into a void. They're not gone. You don't just stop feeling them. That's not what "letting go" means. The emotions are always STILL THERE, regardless of how you end up choosing to react to them.

That's what the Jedi are trying to teach everyone, it's a large part of what they encourage others to practice in order to make better decisions and live happier, healthier lives. But if the Jedi have a magical ability to just make their emotions disappear into a cosmic void, that makes them feel like hypocrites because it's SO MUCH EASIER for them than it would be for anyone else.

And the whole point is that it's NOT. It's not easier for them to regulate their emotions than it is for anyone else. In fact, since being Force sensitive seems to involve a certain level of empathic ability to sense other people's emotions, without them even needing to be NEARBY, it's arguably HARDER for the Jedi to regulate their own emotions and reactions than it is for anyone else. But their teachings and beliefs prioritize things like mindfulness and non-attachment, so they end up being experts at it most of the time which can make it LOOK easy to an outsider.

The Jedi are an ideal to aspire to, and that doesn't work if the beliefs they espouse are hypocritical bullshit. They can't magically send their emotions away, they're just constantly working to make sure that their actions aren't dictated by their emotions.

the backrooms are simply not as scary conceptually if there is Something In Them

[toastyglow]

the whole reason why they're so unnerving is BECAUSE there's nothing in them!! because they're unrelentingly liminal and lonely and uncomforting. there shouldn't be a monster guy in there chasing you. you should glimpse other humans (?) from a distance but they walk away before you can close the gap and then they're gone. things should run away from YOU. do u get it

[toastyglow]

"and there was a MONSTERowooowwohhhh" the monster is isolation and banal beige sameness and uncanny valley architecture. you fool. you rube. you're putting a hat on a hat and the second hat is not only unnecessary but it ruins the first hat!!!!!!! "there's a monster in there" great so now it's just another place for a monster to be. ridiculous

[toastyglow]

fine I will concede: you CAN actually put something in there while maintaining the vibes, but it should complement the location instead of just being a generic scary guy you could put literally anywhere

the next day after exerting myself too much because i felt good for once

[milliekenobi99]

it’s relatively common fanon that jedi aren’t very physically affectionate with each other, and that may be true and that’s fine, but I like to think that physical affection not being expected or on any kind of pedestal also affects the culture inversely, where casual intimacy is also no big deal for jedi, and overt physical displays of affection might not be thought of bc everyone is already so used to taking care of each other. jedi will bathe their mission partner after a particular rough assignment. only one bed? we’re jedi, we didn’t even notice, maybe a pillow wall if we care about personal space. lost my socks? I can ask my neighbor for a pair even if it’s the second time we’ve spoken, that’s my fellow jedi:)

We need to isolate and start selectively breeding the plastic eating bacteria so we can optimise their efficiency, and then somehow splice their DNA into the gut bacteria of an obligate carnivore, so we can put it in our cats gut biomes so they'll finally be free of having to choose between whether they want to eat plastic or whether they want to live.

[partywithponies]

My woke take, as someone who has worked in both a public library and a school library, is that we desperately need both more books that are at a higher reading level but a less mature subject matter, and more books that are at a lower reading level but a more mature subject matter, because 8 year olds who are advanced readers are still 8 year olds and don't want to read about graphic violence and torture, and teens and adults who have learning difficulties or who are just later readers for whatever reason are still teens and adults and don't want to read about Billy the Bunny going to school or whatever the hell.

Eridians can't see*, smell, and hopefully can't taste. Does this mean they only have 2 fucking senses?

I thought Grace would already be freaky with just the ability to perceive light alone but it would probably be way worse when it gets learnt that he has three additional senses over Rocky and all other Eridians for that matter.

Like,

Rocky: Constructing the biodome will be easy. The only thing we'll struggle on is sight since humans have 3 senses instead of 2.

Grace: 5.

Rocky: what?

Grace: we have 5 senses. debatably 6, though its unproven. sometimes people even think we have a 7th.

Rocky: what.

[ellowynthenotking]

Imagine perception of the passing of time is one of those senses, and it turns out that's why eridians "sleep at random" they actually all sleep at set intervals, but they don't know what those intervals are.

Also humans being able to minorly sense electromagnetic fields (part of "ghost" sensing) and sounds below our hearing range, it's the "someone's walking over my grave" sensation but when the eridians are intentionally talking below Grace's hearing range and he keeps telling them to cut it out, and they have no idea how he knows! He can't hear in that range! They've checked it so many times! And yet he can still tell...

Sugawara forgot his umbrella right at the start of rain season. Luckily for him, Daichi is there to offer to share his, and how could Suga possibly refuse?
