Thinking About How Wrath's Arc In 03 Ends With Him Begging For A Way To Do Human Transmutation So He

thinking about how wrath's arc in 03 ends with him begging for a way to do human transmutation so he can bring his mother (sloth, trisha) back and then losing his arm and leg to the gate; and ed—who had insisted that homonculi weren't people, who originally wanted wrath to give him back his limbs and insisted that wrath didn't have a mother, who got hit with wrath screaming at him "she was your mother too!"—ed's last act before he sacrifices himself to get al back, is to ask rose to take care of wrath and bring him to resenbool where ed knows wrath will be cared for. ed's eldest half brother is gone, he is about to sacrifice his existence to give his younger brother a chance to live, and i think that by sending wrath to resenbool he is in effect acknowledging wrath as a brother as well. he can no longer call wrath (or envy for that matter) an interloper or fake, and i think that by extension he is accepting that when he killed sloth, he killed a person; he killed his mother again. wrath himself called her their mother—after accepting that he doesnt want to be human, ironically, he also recognizes ed as a person now, instead of a body to steal! and he does so because of the agony ed has chosen to inflict on both of them! recognition of the other through the ability to inflict and share pain.

full circle for both! they are both their mother's child, they are both cognizant of the other's personhood and struggle, they share the same pain and love and agony. all is one, one is all.

Hii hii hi

I have 3 songs stuck in my head at once: Bratja (FMA 03 OST), Sis Puella Magica (Madoka Magicka OST), and Ray' Retaliation (TPN OST)

Uhh @f15hyw15hy , @jojojooo33 , uhh idk who else to tag off the top of my head ; you also don't have to join if you don't wanna, don't feelxpressured (km like half asleep rn it's 1:53 AM)

ATTENTION

If you see this you are OBLIGATED to reblog w/ the song currently stuck in your head :)

People need to talk about how cool of a name 'roy mustang' is

the way al seeks reassurance from scar in fma 03 kills me. like of all ppl, al asks scar if he thinks al is human. and later on, when he's turning into a bomb, al says "i'm scared" like the little kid he is, and scar tries to calm him down.

RAHHHHHH I LOVE THEIR BOND SO MUCH

You can’t just cherrypick the bits of 03 you like, attribute them to BH and then pretend like 03 doesn’t exist. It really bugs me when people do that.  Like when BH die-hard fans draw Envy with GReen hair and then when you commend their art and inquire if it’s 03 Envy, they don’t even respond??? Like wtf? Tbh that fucking annoys me. most act like 03 doesn’t exist and will completely ignore you if you bring it up. Or when Brotherhood lovers/03 haters will use 03 screen caps like they belong to Brotherhood. I’m just like “Bitch, you wouldn’t have those great screencaps if it weren’t for the 03 series existing, so you can show a little appreciation, you fucking hypocrite.”

I just don’t have time for people that hate on the original FMA series
