The real heroes 👉🌲🌲

I’m sometimes reminded of the fact that the Maria Ross Prison Break Fake Death Incident never happens in ‘03, and so that moment where manga/BH!Ed realizes he actually can trust Mustang never comes to pass (until possibly after he goes AWOL? I haven’t gotten to that part in my rewatch so not sure, but either way it wasn’t as impactful). In ‘03, Mustang never really earns Ed’s trust (because he’s literally so much more of a horrible person!!! lol) and so Hughes (and to a lesser extent Armstrong) is actually the ONLY PERSON IN THE WHOLE MILITARY he can at least halfway trust and who he has some real respect and admiration for. Which makes it so much worse that he DIES on him. It just kills me how Brotherhood is about Ed learning to trust and open up to those around him, while ‘03 is largely about how he’s forced to close himself off from the untrustworthy people around him and isolate himself from everyone except his brother (he even leaves Winry behind after the kidnapping incident, to keep her safe). And then, towards the very end (when he makes the decision to kill Sloth) he finally shuts his brother out, too. And then he wears that incredibly sad wistful/resigned look on his face for the entire rest of the show.

New merch anyone? 😶💀😨

watching fma 2003 again :)

the first law of tragedies: the end is already written and inevitable. the second law of tragedies: your actions are all your own and you can choose to get off this ride whenever you want. the third law of tragedies: we both know that you are never going to do that.

I think about this scene a lot. Genuinely.

something i can’t stop thinking about is ed’s internal reaction to his little brother being 5 years younger than him now instead of only 1 year lmao

“WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU’RE 13???” I’M THE RESPONSIBLE ADULT NOW???”

I made another one in boredom
