Damn, I remember the first time I watched FMA 03, when I was 16 or 17, I stayed up until 1 am to finish it, and today, watching episodes 38 through 42 turned me into such an emotional mess that I have to take a break lmao what happened??? My own emotional traumas, that's what happened
I'm feeling so many things again
In episode 38, when Ed and Al are fighting, Al drenches Ed in water and he says "it's going to rain!!!" and I'm like haha no don't try to pull a Mustang on me I know this episode won't make me cry and GUESS WHAT the flashback with Trisha convincing Ed to go and find Al so they can talk things out and Al looking so happy that Ed isn't upset with him anymore it's so cute I CRIED
I need -- no, I DEMAND a spin-off series where Winry and Scziezka solve murder mysteries together (I'd love to write it myself but I know I'm not nearly good enough at coming up with mystery stories lol), they're adorable I'm so happy they totally get together post CoS
Martel's death hits SO MUCH HARDER than I remembered holy shit, she and Al actually got close, we see more of her, her death is so horrific and hearing sweet sweet baby boy Alphonse cry just BROKE MY HEART I never wanted to hug an armor so badly
Scar's brother's last moments, the way he looks so terrified and desperate to protect his little brother from Kimblee and Scar being so devastated when he dies I just-- *clenches fist*
Sloth using Ed's PTSD against him that's so UNFAIR; also I was thinking that I was a bit disappointed that this anime did not include the nightmare that Ed has at some point in the manga where he sees his mom saying "why didn't you make me right" etc but this is it, this is this scene, and it's worse because he's hearing it for real, he is very much awake, he has the real voice of his mom in his ears and she's saying this to him and I'm-- *clenches fist harder*
Rose's story, I'm still so mad, she deserves all the happiness in the world
Speaking of Rose, it's so funny how the moment Al is like "I wonder how Rose is doing" the show just full on goes "Ed/Rose shipper" mode lmao, with Ed blushing while pretending not to remember her, him being so awkward when he speaks to her just before they go on their separate ways and her son just smiling and giggling when he speaks (first time we see the baby laugh, he had only been crying up until then) :') To be honest it feels a bit out of the blue to me but idk
Dante sporting Lyra's white ass in the town of brown people and speaking as if she was part of them just because she's following Rose around to manipulate her is incredibly cringe, but then again, it's Dante, she's the villain and we're already supposed to know something is up with "Lyra". But still.
Very random but Al pulling objects from or putting objects inside his armor from behind the cloth always looks very awkward lol
I used to never really care about Scar but I have learned the errors of my way as I now realize he is actually one of the best characters in this goddamn series, even with the orb of knowledge and the three arm losses, and Mangahood!Scar being much more villainized and ending up working with the military will never come even CLOSE to 03!Scar using his last bit of strength to save Alphonse to honor his love for his lost brother and take his ultimate revenge on those who murdered his people in the goal of protecting oppressed people, all of this while an epic music is playing (honestly it even feels like Ed is made to be seen as an obstacle as he tries to prevent the soldiers from entering Liore lol)
Sorry but Wrath is annoying as hell, I know that I'll probably have a different opinion if I rewatch CoS after that, but for now I hate him
We're finally entering the "Rewrite" era of the show and I had forgotten how much it rocks (Ed's hair animation at the beginning fhjkfhkdhjk)
I only have 9 episodes left but between Lust and Sloth in the upcoming episodes I'm not even sure I'll be able to watch it all in one go lol. Still excited to see more of Winry and Scziezka and remembering how much Hohenheim is absolutely useless in this x)

also slowly turning around in my brain how rose said she was going to stay with the doctor forever, and then later donna says the same thing (to martha!! the doctor doesnt even hear or know!!! it would make him so happy but hurt him so much if he did!!!!!!), and then when she tells the doctor shes going home in sontaran stratagem he immediately assumes it means shes leaving him for good and accepts it but also launches into all the things he still wanted to show her.
and i know its played for a joke like haha silly martian thats not what i meant! but this is the same man who, when he needed to turn human, loved someone SO DEEP AND HARD that he didnt think he'd ever fall in love again. ever. even with his memory erased. so when you take that moment of "oh you're just popping home for a visit" and like ACTUALLY look at it you're like. this man gets so so so attached to people, and is so incredibly scarred by losing these people he loves that he has no choice but to let them go when they want to leave on good terms, because he knows how bad it could get for them if they stay, no matter how much he wants them to stay.
anyway donna's forever and rose's forever are just different flavors of the same "i need you as much as you need me, so im in it for the long haul, bad stuff included" and its chefs kiss

little idea, a small concept even
Ash weapons easily scar fae, even high lords.
Usually high lords are extremely hard to scar. Their powerful magic healing the wounds, even against the most potent weapon.
Rhysand, when he was shot by those arrows (they were ash if my memory serves me right) took a bit to heal, small round scars covering him but even they faded eventually.
But when Tamlin was stabbed with the ash dagger by feyre he wasn’t at his full power, the wound healing at a snails pace. Even when amarantha was dead and his power was back the damage had been done.
He has a small scar across where his heart is. Left permanently by the mortal girl he had loved.
(its rlly late at night and the creative brainrot is hitting me)

:0 your blockdads au is so fun! Any thoughts on who Kanaya's parent would be?
Tyty!! So I had the idea that all the patron trolls would get the members of boatem, with Sollux being a weird exception since he was going to be a patron troll before vriska stepped in so he gets impulse and iskall. I had chosen everyone else before I got to kanaya so that left her with pearl! But tbh it’s still a good fit- pearl is still prankstery but she doesn’t go quite as crazy as grian, her builds, imo, are the most beautiful of any hermit’s (because I’m biased towards the natural organic look) so kanaya would appreciate that, and also I feel like she can be even-tempered like kanaya when she needs to be :)

Slightly obsessed with the idea of Rose having secretive government employment in Rebirth but still hanging around her old flames. Like real “coming back from the war” vibes.
Like I’m just imaging Rose getting like 2 weeks shore leave from Stormwatch because she did really well on a mission or whatever and her just appearing in front of Cassandra’s apartment one day still wearing her costume and carrying like a duffel bag over her shoulder and Cassandra not being the least bit bemused by this.
Assgjshdvs like Rose spends the entire 2 weeks giving Cassandra the best strap of her life before leaving again like nothing ever happened. They don’t see each for three months after this and neither thinks it’s weird or considers themselves the other one’s bootycall. Actually they both think “ah yes I’m totally getting a good grade in romance” and literally no one else thinks they’re dating because they never talk about each other or even go on dates ahajhshw
