FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST: BROTHERHOOD, OP 1 They're her family, and something horrible happened to them. And... that kind of means that something horrible happened to her, too. — Milena, LM Reactions

I used to think that was kind of dorky‚ but now I realize- #-it's to communicate that Winry was just as affected by the events‚ just not physically'' #because YES! that's IT! #i used to also not get the wind thing and chalk it up to 'they had to put winry in there' but this makes so much more sense #my gifs

This is a brief exploration of "Zanzo tests SPECTRA on himself". Maybe canon compliant, maybe not.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"SPECTRA is designed to work on humans. Last I checked, I'm the only one with a brain in this room!" Zanzo drops into the office chair. He opens a panel on the underside of his bicep, exposing both a USB port and the rechargeable battery housed within. "Hook me up."

The PGR-101 on standby raises a hand. "Are you sure about this?"

Their boss rolls his eyes. "What kind of follower would I be if I weren't willing to sacrifice myself for the cause?"

The PGR-101 opens their mouth only to close it again. Pointing out that Zanzo tends to put his employees on the chopping block before himself is unnecessary at this moment. "Of course, sir." The plug clicks in the port, its attached wire snaking back towards the terminal.

"TODAY, please."

With the hit of the enter key, Zanzo's body slumps forward. Then he straightens up with a jolt, seeming alert apart from dull, unfocused eyes. "I am a proud member of the Vandelay family," he recites in monotone. "The labor I provide for this company is invaluable." Zanzo rises to his feet. With near mechanical motion, he widens his stance. One hand on rests on his hip and the other on the side of his head. He speaks again. "I don't see what you're upset about. This is how we progress. Human experimentation is a necessary step. I would think a scientist should understand..."

Click, program complete. Zanzo goes limp, collapsing into the chair. If PGR-101 had skin, it'd be crawling. "Boss?"

"It works," Zanzo says flatly. He repeats the phrase with a slow nod. Chilling compared to his usual excitement regarding projects. He yanks out the plug, shuddering as it clatters against the laminate floor. "Get out. I need to write an email." Zanzo dismisses the PGR-101 with a flourish of his wrist. Back to himself, like nothing happened.

Zanzo wheels over to the monitor, pulling up the email to draft a message for Kale Vandelay. So I finished testing SPECTRA and it works exactly as it should, Zanzo typed. Ready to move into the next phase whenever you are.

Press send. Wait. Zanzo shivers in his seat. This AI changes everything. The ability to seal away another's free will, their freedom of choice. It's out of his hands now.

You’ve faced several life or death situations…

But that does not make you an adult.

Finding more fallen-out hairs on your pillow…

Watching your favourite stuffed bread disappear from the convenience store…

The accumulation of little despairs is what makes a person an adult.

Please understand this.

Being a child is not a sin.

“I think you’re actually more of a pompous bastard than you were when I left,” Ed commented cheerfully. “Yes, Ed, that’s what happens when I no longer have a subordinate determined to poke tiny holes in my ego.”

Ed and Roy (chp. 1)

From the Worst of Times by Batsutousai (AO3) Fullmetal Alchemist – Mature – Edward Elric/Roy Mustang #Post-Canon #Canon-Typical Violence #Original Character Deaths #Explicit Language #Edward Elric Swears

“From the worst of times,” someone had once told a young Roy Mustang, “always come the greatest of gifts.” There were times in his life that was all he had to cling to, but it always seemed to hold true, one way or the other.

The plot thickens...

The thing here is, I'm almost certain that wasn't what Alphonse was going to say (I assume he wanted to say something about how trying to bring back Trisha wasn't comparable to this at all... I'm reminded of 12-year-old Ed with Tucker)

But a not unfair point is being made in the context of the military/Ed and Al's involvement with it. Thus far, the Elric brothers haven't liked the military, but as such have seemed to feel that their being tied to it (and appropriately disliked) for each other's sakes is a necessary sacrifice/a mature choice (as I've said before, they seem to view maturity/kindness as equivalent to ignoring your own wants or needs for someone else).

But I think when Lust equates sacrificing the prisoners with Ed being a state alchemist (and Al having wanted to be one), it puts things in a bit more perspective for Ed? Because Ed + Al are far from the only people at risk here... It's not just about their lives, it's about the people who the military is actually targeting-in this specific instance, these prisoners

So Ed refusing to follow orders with this in mind (even when Al was on the line) was probably the primary reason why Scar chose to help him escape (though ofc Scar seeing himself and his brother in Ed and Al was also part of it)

#there's a quote later on that ties into this a lot #but tbh I don't fully remember the context it was said in so I'll wait till I've gotten that far to comment on it #every time I try to analyze this series in any way I wonder. is all of this just obvious but also simultaneously incoherent #adrien says stuff #fma #fma 03 #fma rewatch #idk #Definitely talking to Marcoh and that guy from ep16 Ed has admitted that his journey was foolhardy #and obviously by this point he's been considering the moral ramifications of the philosopher's stone for a while now #but for the most part thus far he has given very little thought on whether or not he can morally be a state alchemist #well I mean. in the flashback he did quit over Nina #but I mean more recently with him entirely rejecting Scar's beliefs by default #sorry this post was meant to be about Elric brother views on maturity + Lust's thoughts on humanity but I got distracted #headcanons analysis au ideas and such

Hughes: Can you do me a favour?

Roy: I would literally cover up a murder you committed, plant my DNA at the crime scene, and take the blame for it if you asked me to.

Hughes: Can you wash the dishes?

Roy: No.

Dear Generic Cough Syrup Manufacturer whose product I consumed at 12 am last night desperately seeking relief,

I’m sure that this message will reach you in vain as the only way I can possibly imagine you committing such a transgression would be intentionally, on purpose, to be cruel, but I have to try anyway.

Are you aware that ‘mint’ and ‘cherry’ are two distinct flavors that do not need to become one within your liquid?

You can just choose one. It’s okay. I don’t need both. I’m not that greedy. In fact, I really barely need a taste at all. I appreciate what you’re trying to do, as I’m sure the natural taste of this medicine is awful, but honestly at this point you’re kind of overcompensating and creating something that might actually be worse than the alternative.

Whatever rogue alchemist you have concocting your brews really needs a talking-to because the experience I had last night was as follows: I could not breathe because there was so much coughing happening. I stumbled out into the kitchen desperate for any kind of intervention from a higher, medicinal power. I found your creation. It was bright red. Perhaps where my first mistake lay was that I did not have an accurate measuring tool by which to dole out your dosage. I had to eyeball it in a shot glass. Generic Cough Syrup Manufacturer, I’ve never drank due to a history of addiction in my family, but consuming your products might drive me to it.

The first thing that I experienced was the sticky and unpleasant medicinal “cherry” flavor. I put cherry in quotes because I don’t think it’s at all accurate to how cherries taste, but it is red. So it has that going for it. This would have been bearable, if it was not for the fact that shortly after my tastebuds became acquainted with cherry (grimacing and shaking hands politely but uncomfortably) that you decided mint had to come along too, like some sort of wayward fraternity reject intent on crashing the party. My tastebuds recoiled. It was nauseating. I felt like I was going to throw up. I dry heaved at least once.

Generic Cough Syrup Manufacturer, you are aware that in order for your product to take effect, it has to stay down, yes? People have to be able to stomach it. It should not make me compulsively go through the “I’m about to be sick” motions. It should not have an aftertaste that haunts my mouth for eight long hours during a fitful sleep (because your product did not even do what I wanted it to do) and reminds me of its presence in the morning.

Why did you do this? Why did you decide that these two flavors have to coalesce? Were you coerced into doing such a thing? Have you simply never eaten food before and don’t know what tastes are? Are you cruel and trying to punish me further? I don’t know. I really don’t. I’m going to have to take two more eyeballed shot glasses of your repulsive, awful, mint-and-cherry’s-bastard-lovechild-bursting-out-of-mama-like-alien concoction tonight. I’m not looking forward to it. You sick bastards.

pick a pile: how you secretly intimidate others ⛓𓌹*♰*𓌺⛓

this is a general reading & for entertainment purposes only, take what resonates and leave what doesn't. scroll through the images & choose based on your inner guidance and gut feeling. ⛓️

♱☾pile one☽

“don’t call me baby! im not your baby!”

you intimidate others with your individuality. There’s something about you that’s very weird or kind of quirky. not in the “oh im not like other gwurls 🤪” cringey way. but rather you’re kind of blunt even when you don’t mean to be other people might think that what you say is too harsh or direct. This seems to be some thing that might throw off men as well but at the same time it’s also make some desire you. That free spirit can be seen as something that other people want in their life but it’s not always with the best intentions. It’s kind of like they want you to fulfill something for them. Kind of like to conquer you in a way. But it seems like that literally never happens because instead, you’re literally a tower moment for other people in their lives.

Just by being you, you unconsciously force other people to reflect on certain things in their life. you guys people specifically to reflect on their insecurities, and also their childhood. You could find that people, especially women project onto you. they could look at you and mumble under their breath or too each other like “what the fuck is their problem” or talk about how you think you “know it all”

it seems like people are just really intimidated by your knowledge and what you have to share with other people. you might have some Aquarius placements. Whether what you share with others is topics about religion or spirituality or “taboo” subjects, other people could be thrown off by your words, while at the same time secretly want to hear more.

this pile, gave off a lot of scorpio and/or aries and/ or libra & taurus energy and 8th house/ pluto aspects energy. when I asked about qualities people associate with you I got “ regeneration, suspicion, passion, beautiful, art, experimentation, intelligent, creativity, wisdom.” 🕯️

🕸️𓆩♡𓆪🕸️ tip jar 🕸️𓆩♡𓆪🕸️

♱☾pile two☽

“no, I’m killing boys.”

people are secretly intimidated by the way you can rise from the ashes and transform completely after going through super traumatic shit. The way you seem to be able to recover from stuff that can be straight out of someone’s nightmare and manage to come out on top is inspiring but also it makes other people feel insecure. pile two, other people seem to think that you somehow just “get lucky” when something really good happens to you. People might think that you didn’t have to work that hard for it. They could secretly send you evil eye and think oh I wish that would’ve happened to me instead..

shit I’m not gonna lie I feel in awe and a little shook reading these cards describing your energy. you are literally an alchemist. You transform everything you touch and you transform after every experience with a lot of grace and harmony. lmfaoo the quote from “what? like its hard” from legally blonde popped up. The thing is that it actually is hard but you’ve been doing it for so long. There’s no other way for you to really function. You manage to continuously strengthen your spirituality over and over again.

and there’s a certain element of privacy that you also keep when it comes to your home life and the space you live in and also in regards to what you’re even thinking. It kind of leaves people in constant speculation of who you are what you actually do or where you even live. but this privacy seems necessary to you, sacred to you actually. Your personality, ego, and the way you view yourself are in a constant state of fluctuation. But never in a way that ends up being super detrimental to you. even when you “mess up” you learn something and get better.

you are someone that is very strong and I don’t wanna say that like in a corny “omg ur saiuuir strong u went through so much :(“ pity way. I literally mean just a very unique kind of perseverance within your spirit where time after time you just can’t be knocked down. And other people wonder about that, but they’re not even close to being able to dissect it & that intimidates them.

You could be someone that has a lot of 12th house or fourth house placements, as well as Jupiter, Sagittarius, or Pluto prominent in the chart. when I asked about qualities/ words that people associate with you, I got “independent, knowledgeable, transformation, roots, subconscious, potential, hope” 🔐

♱☾pile three☽

“how do you feel about yourself now stupid motherfucker? you couldve had some pussy.”

people are secretly intimidated by the way you run shit. You have a very straightforward and innovative, and out of the box solution for many of the obstacles you face in life. Similar to pile 2 there is resentment in response to the way you succeed. But when it comes to you it’s more because of the way you do things. people might think “oh it’s not fair that they did it that way and won..” but in reality, you have a unique power being able to bounce back really fast from shit. you don’t mind being someone brand new every single day or changing your habits or routines, or the way you connect with people were your resources very quickly.

In fact, you’re constantly flowing in these spaces of rebirth and attatchment and security. and that intimidate people because they wonder well how is it possible that you’re changing your character and your appearance and your own self all the time and YOU dont care if people label it as a fake or weird. Like I’m not gonna lie this piles giving off someone who has such a range of random aesthetics that ppl r like seeing u as someone who dresses up or is wearing a costume when in reality you just feel transformed by your experiences so frequently.

its giving “im not the person who i was yesterday” so don’t try it today energy. it intimidates people that you’re not ashamed of changing your mind and being like “ well actually I used to like that and now I don’t like it anymore, so can you please respect the boundaries I set up now.”

you TRUST yourself. and not only does that intimidate people but it also makes them MAD. chiron aka trauma, wounds, healing, pain etc popped up, so it doesn’t mean that all your life you had this confidence or ability to listen to yourself and your intuition. If anything you suffered a lot and had a period of time (especially in childhood) were you were taught to not listen to yourself or your intuition. where you were told that if you showed leadership and willpower, and if you used your anger and embraces your anger, that bad things would happen.

But then, finally, you did and you realized that you get so much more from life when you show people how to treat you from the start. And other people want to be able to do that. And you securely inspire them to do that but it’s also a mixture of envy as well thats included in those feelings toward you. oh well. protect your peace! you could be someone that has aries, first house, 8th house and 2nd house placements. 888 also popped up if that has any significance to you. when I asked about qualities/ words that people associate with you, I got “secure, possessive, leader, warrior, loyal.”⚖️

“Please don’t tempt anyone to shoot you,” he murmured to Ed as the others hurried to catch up. “I’ll consider it,” Edward promised, which was really just a variation of ‘fuck you’ in Edward Elric-speak, but Roy didn’t have the energy or time to beat diplomacy into his former subordinate’s head, so he had to make do with that.

Ed is still playing to his strengths (chp. 1)

I haven't see Fullmetal Alchemist, all I know is that the series' name drop is fucking badass.

You know.

"Sacrifices are necessary; you can't gain anything without losing something first. Although, if you can endure that pain and walk away from it, you'll find that you now have a heart strong enough to overcome any obstacle. Yeah... a heart made fullmetal."

I don't even have the full context for it, I just know, that's a super cool name drop.

Also, again, I have not watched or read Fullmetal Alchemist, but it pairs really well with a quote from the Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho:

"Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity."
