HELLO IT'S ME, SHIO, AND I HAVE AN UNFINISHED ROYAI LYRICSTUCK. AND I WANT YOU TO SEE IT.
For some context, if you were around in the pandemic you might remember that the pandemic was my Royai brainrot era. I unleashed my creativity and put it all in the FMA fandom, specially Royai.
I was in Discord servers, I read a lot of fanfic, I created a playlist, etc. Normal things to do when you're in a fandom. But you know, life, I moved on... I think many of us did, and I found myself these days remembering that time, five years ago... And that's how I found something.
In that "phase" I started A ROYAI/FMA ANIMATIC... kinda, it is more like a set of drawings accompanying the lyrics of a song. That song being "Like Gold", by Vance Joy. I REALLY MEANT TO FINISH IT, because it was looking very nice, but I didn't have the stamina to do it, so I left it as-is, hoping to finish it some day.
Today I really asked myself if this is the time to do it, and I realized... I can't do it alone. I'm not the same person as I was 5 years ago, I don't find it in me to be as passionated about a fandom as I used to anymore. That's why I want to show you what I already have, to get it out of my system and for you guys to enjoy it in it's rough state.
(Have in mind I have my own headcanons of how their childhood might have been, and this reflects a lot of that.)
So buckle up! We're going for a ride. Hit play on the song and just scroll slowly. The fun starts in the chorus:
So that's it! What do you think? Would you like to help me finish it? It's ok if you don't, I just want to give this to the world. I thought it'd be kind of selfish of me to not share it only because it's not finished, specially now that I accepted that I won't be finishing it by myself.
I hope you understand why that's the case. If you are an artist and you see potential in this and would like to collaborate, please let me know! That would be the only spark needed to ignate the fandom flame in me (??? (you get it? haha because of Roy lololol)
No but fr, just if you think it'd be fun, I'm open to collaborate just for the fun of it. Otherwise, it's fine if it stays just as it is, I think it holds its own and is very emotional even in its current rough state.
Let me know your thoughts and feelings!! I really miss Royai. I hope you enjoy this, it's made with love :') ♥
okay so i know that in canon we have alanzo speaking in italian when his feelings are just too big for him to express himself in english but i also cannot stop thinking of him adding italian curse words into his banter with jack. the italian language has a beautiful repertoire of curse words and insults that i think they both would have a lot of fun with
another reason jack and alan didn't fuck on the lyric is that jack force fed alan his entire bottle of lube when he was unconscious and didn't have any more
(meanwhile there’s alan, waking up on the floor and a beautiful man is pointing a gun at him and his mouth inexplicably tastes like olive oil and he’s gotta be like “okay either a microaggression happened... or the ancestors are speaking to me and they want me to fuck this man.”)
Nicky was always looking at Toby. Jem knew that because he was always looking at Nicky.

Alt text for the book copy below the cut:
Ella is a haunting.
Murdered at sixteen, her ghost is furiously trapped in her father's house, invisible to everyone except her stepmother and stepsisters.
Even when she discovers how to untether herself from her prison, there are limits. She cannot be seen or heard by the living people who surround her. Her family must never learn she is able to leave. And at the stroke of every midnight, she finds herself back on the staircase where she died.
Until she forges a wary friendship with a fairy charm-seller, and makes a bargain for three nights of almost-living freedom. Freedom that means she can finally be seen. Danced with. Touched.
You think you know Ella's story: the ball, the magical shoes, the handsome prince.
