envy’s death might just be my favorite scene in all of fullmetal alchemist?? it’s so brilliant every time i see it. this evil character who has done nothing but harm has such a heartbreaking end. envy, who looked down on humans. envy, who finds joy in the pain of others. envy, who could never understand human foolishness. he was jealous of them all along. and he couldn’t handle being understood by the same beings he was envious of. and in the end, he’s crying!!! he is the one who destroys his own philosopher’s stone, because he can’t bear being understood by what he loathes so much, and he can’t let himself be killed by them. in the end, unlike the humans he was so jealous of, he wouldn’t keep fighting. he gave up. he’s the opposite of his brother greed, who accepts his true desire for friendship and connection, and leaves the world feeling content. instead envy is cowardly and leaves the world in such a miserable and sad way.

It was really lucky for Envy that Ed took a while to figure out how to portal out of Gluttony. Imagine a giant green monster suddenly exploding out of the street into Central City in broad daylight.

brothers in arms (1, 2, 3, 4)
except they literally hate each other lmaooo. brotherhood gone wrong i guess. interesting how these two both wanted what humans have but sought after it in such different ways. anyways the idea of the homunculi as a family has always intrigued me. what were they doing all these hundreds of years of being alive.
