i think edward elric entire military experience can be summarized as john mulaney’s “horse loose in the hospital” bit

there is a CHILD ALCHEMIST LOOSE IN THE STATE MILITARY!

NOBODY KNOWS WHAT THE CHILD IS GOING TO DO, LEAST OF ALL THE CHILD!

HE’S NEVER BEEN IN THE MILITARY BEFORE!

I love Roy Mustang as much as the next person, but every version of FMA hinges on him looking at a traumatized eleven year old amputee who just committed a class A felony and thinking ‘Let’s enlist him into the military immediately’ 

to be fair

  • he initially thought that Ed and Al were in thier 30s based on bad intel
  • he was gonna probably just report back and tell intel off for wasting his time if Ed and Al hadn’t. Done That.
  • seriously, Edward and Al managed to pull off one of THE GREATEST alchemical taboos with a shockingly low amount of consequences
  • Ed lost an arm and leg while Al lost his whole body, and Ed bonded the soul to a suit of armor with basically NOTHING
  • Roy’s options were essentially either put Ed in jail, put him into a state orphanage, or bring him into the organization where he can keep an eye on him and possibly get him the resources to fix the massive fuckup that happened (and prevent Ed from becoming a Shou Tucker or Kimblee style monster hopefully)

Basically Roy took one look at these kids and said “I’m your dad now,”

someone who hasnt seen fma describe this screenshot

Fuck you, dad

troubled war veteran is, quite literally, haunted by his former emo phase

the officer passed a no goth rule and his mortal enemy – his son – seeks revenge

twink about to make his move on a potential sugar daddy

either you’ve all seen the show or this is a testament to the power of art

the government overthrow at the end of FMA:B is funny bc, like, a lot of people thought Roy was rlly dumb and shallow, which he made sure of on purpose, so to the majority of soldiers it’s kind of like abruptly getting caught up in a coup thrown by Elle Woods from legally blonde

“What, like it’s hard?”
