Like isnât that so fascinating? The phrase âIâm not some animal!â Is actually a thing but ??? Yes we are! And itâs so fascinating!! Hereâs some things to think on:
âąWe literally have packs. Whether it be family, close friends, friend groups at school, etc. we all need human interaction, and even some of the most introverted people are included in this. People have been known to die from loneliness!
âąWe all need strong figures to look at and mold ourselves after. lacking a motherly, fatherly, etc. figure can largely impact who a person grows up to be. Without someone to look up to, a child wouldnât learn useful lessons from them, whatâs right and whatâs wrong, etc. We rely very heavily on others!!
âąWe are EXTREMELY territorial. Have you ever thought about this? Signs are placed around fences designed to keep other humans out saying âtrespassing will be insert bad thing hereâ because humans they donât know arenât welcome in their land! Even though itâs really not our land, we pay money to âownâ it in the eyes of other humans!
âąAttraction. With a few exceptions, (hello asexuals! :D) humans experience the desire to mate with others, but not just anyone! While not everything is about looks, they are a contributing factor! For example, âskinnyâ people are considered attractive because statistically the less fat an individual has, the higher the libido. Biologically, people like this because A) more sex, and B) more offspring, even if you donât want children! Your body is still designed to want lots of offspring to keep the human race going. Another example is what society claims to be âbeautiful.â Shiny, thick, healthy hair is considered pretty because the offspring an individual with this hair would produce will also have lovely, healthy hair! This goes the same for long legs (for running well) and more!
This list could go on absolutely forever! Feel free to reblog and add some more things :)

Hereâs something for your soul: Every single time Ed is cold, Royâs jacket is on him within seconds. Ed doesnât even get to FINISH the complaint of âits cold/Iâm coldâ the jacket is already on his shoulders. Itâs like a reflex or an instinct. It gets to the point Team Mustang jokes around and says âyou might as well just give it to him every time he steps into the officeâ and flustered Dad Royâąïž is just like âI just donât want to hear his annoying complaints, okay?!â
I pretty much answer to the philosophy that Ed stole one of Royâs jackets and drags it around everywhere, and Roy saw that he was happy and warm so he let him keep it and got a new one. Then, SURPRISE! Alphonse gets his body back and g u e s s w h o gets THAT one.
Basically Roy has many jackets and has passed them all onto his sons
Fanfiction recommendations?? Love your blog!

feel free to add on!!
Itâs a few days following the Promised Day. Al is regaining his strength, although it happens slowly. Ed, save for the occasional spike of pain through the puncture wound in his arm and the dull soreness in his body, is more or less back to normal. He still has a lot to do before the two of them can leave for goodâaccounts to close, resignation forms to hand in to the military, personal budgets to balance, tabs to pay. What may be weeksâ worth of paperwork he needs to get sorted out before he can finally close the military chapter of his life. He plans to get the jump on it while Al recovers, so the two can return to Resembool as soon as Alâs ready.
So hardly 72 hours following his defeat of Father, Ed is standing at the hospital check-out desk, running through a mental laundry list of loose ends he has to tie up. He flies through the hospital check-out formâname and date of birth and signature and home town. The secretary at the desk takes the papers and makes a small noise. It stops Ed just as he turns to leave. âYouâre not 18 yet, are you?â she asks.
âNo. Why?â âThen you need someone to sign the parent or guardian line. You canât check yourself out until youâre 18.â âIâm a state alchemist. Iâm pretty sure that qualifies me to check myself out of a hospital if I want.â âSorry. These are different rules.â
Biting back a comment, Ed twists back down the hallway. He keeps his eyes peeled for the names on the door, hoping (though he knows heâs wrong) that maybe Hohenheim stuck around for a suture or two. He passes Mustang, who canât help but comment, âYouâre in a rush today.â âOf course I am. Iâve got about 800 different forms to sign before the military cuts me loose, and I canât even check myself out without a parentâs signature. Whereâs my stupid excuse for a father?â
He doesnât stop to gauge Mustangâs reaction. He rounds corners, climbs stairs, sharp eyes bouncing back and forth from room card to room card. Nothing with âHohenheimâ on it. Nothing even close. His arm achesâboth do, actuallyâbut he hardly notices past the aggravation brewing in his mind.
And after 20 minutes of rounds, he ends up back at the secretaryâs desk, more flushed than before, arms folded over his chest. âMy dadâs not here. How much do I have to pay you off to let me go?â She looks up at him, somewhat confused, and somehow much more tired than before. She blinks behind dusty glasses. âOhâŠNo, youâre free to leave now. âŠI guess.â
âWell why didnât you tell me before?â Ed asks. She pulls his form out and pushes it back to him. Ed takes it, turns it, scans it. All the parts heâd filled out are still there, but the bottom has changed since he last saw it. On the line, in tight blue ink, is âCol. R. Mustang, (Military Commander)â Ed blinks, brow knitted, because the line goes on: âLt. R. Hawkeyeâ is looped in neat cursive beside it. Black ink below: âIzumi Curtisâ then in thick blockish letters, just the word âSigâ. Taking up the most space, and done in the neatest, most brilliant cursive font: âMajor Alexander Louis Armstrongâ. To its right is an almost flat line, with just enough bumps to perhaps say âGen. Olivier Armstrongâ. A flowery âMaria Rossâ and a messy âDenny Broshâ (both in to visit Major Armstrong). A âZampanoâ. A âJersoâ. A âHeinkelâ. A âDariusâ. âTim Marcohâ is squished in the paperâs dwindling space. âKain Furyâ âHeymans Bredaâ âVato FalmanââŠ
Ed glances up to the secretary, who looks suddenly so tired. âWe just⊠At least one of those isâŠprobably valid. Youâre free to go. Youâre released.â Ed nods, smiling and peddling backwards. His one metal leg clanks with each step. âRight, thank you!â
The secretary leans over her desk, shouting to keep up with his happily retreating figure. âJust so you know, these are official documents. Patient protocol is not a game. It doesnât reflect well on me if your Colonel thinks itâs okay to round up half the hospital to signâthis is not a âget wellâ cardâjustâŠPlease tell him not to do this again!â
âOh sure thing,â Ed shouts back. âBut that depends on how difficult you plan to be with Al.â
Okay but it makes me so fucking mad that we dont acknowledge the fact that rhodey watches as Tony disapears?
You think he doesnt feel that? You think he doesnt worry? You think he doesnt see that punk kid he adopted during his college years and never let go of? Hes known Tony since they were KIDS.
Hes known Tony when his parents died. You think heâd welcome Cap back with open arms, after he held Tony as he cried in his arms, saying ârhodey, I dont-i cant-im 21, ill never be enough-i miss her, I never told them-â
You think that heâd just go âyeah, thatâs cool,cap, you helped RUIN my best friend but weâre okayâ
And you think that he doesnt see Tony and thinks âI should be there, I should HELPâ
Like I dont care if you ship them or not, the fact that we so blatantly disregard how rhodey must be feeling in that scene?
He wants his fucking best friend back. He must be fucking devastated inside, but instead he cracks jokes and does what he can, instead of being torn up with worry, instead of showing it.
The thing I love about rhodey+Tony is the pure level of trust and comfortable aura they have? In age of Ultron, as soon as rhodey shows up, the tone changes entirely. Tonyâs cracking jokes, hes happier, hes caring, Hhdhdhrhjrjrururh
And so yes, Steveâs lines are iconic and yes I stan, but at the same time, can we stop pretending that rhodey wouldnât be doing anything and everything to get his fuckinf best friend back?
He watched him drive off in the desert and come back a different man. You think he doesnt think of those 3 agonizing months as soon as he sees Tonyâs gone? You think he doesnt fucking love him?
You think he wasnât thinking, âwhat if this is it, what if the last time we talked was the last time, what if hes gone forever?â
God. I couldnât imagine what Rhodey must be feeling in that scene. But instead he tells jokes, and he does what he can, because thatâs what Tony would want him to do.
