Al: How to leave a table without being rude?
Roy: Eat the table
Maes: Good advice
Sometimes I say self loathing things to my therapist and he looks at me dead in the eyes before saying “You fucking moron.” and tbh same
Ed at age 40: What do you MEAN I can't be cuddled by my dads anymore what am I, an adult???
remember that time in the Manga when Roy was told to lay low bc Scar was trying to kill state alchemist and instead Mustang was like “oh no my sons.” and ran straight at Scar instead of trying to stay alive by laying los
How could I forget it’s my absolute most favorite scene in anything ever. You want to know why?
Roy Mustang is a very calculated man. Very calculated. I know we all like to pretend that he’s an idiot, and sure, sometimes he is. Sometimes he’s an absolute moron, but he’s not about to throw his life away just to prove a point. He called all attention to himself, okay? He knew that it was raining; it’s his biggest weakness and Roy Mustang does not do weaknesses that he can’t combat. He was perfectly aware that it was raining and he knew what he was doing. He knew what he was doing from the second that he stepped into that car at Eastern Command.
So, he called attention to himself. He shot a bullet into the air and took all attention away from Ed, even though Edward was currently at Scar’s feet and about to die. He handed his gun to Hawkeye (who hopefully knew what he was up to or at least had a clue) and made himself vulnerable. He didn’t have faith in his abilities; he knew it wouldn’t work. He made himself an easy target. Because now, Ed is forgotten about. Ed is at Scar’s feet but completely forgotten. Roy hasn’t just made himself a target, either. He is the target. This man has been running around killing State Alchemists, saying it was against his god, so he made it clear who exactly he was and why exactly Scar should be targetting him.
And it works!
After all, whether they knew who Scar was or not, they knew that he was punishing State Alchemists for their acts against his god. Ed is not as big a ‘sinner’ as Roy is. And Scar, an Ishvalan who dealt personally with State Alchemists and who knows that Roy was one of the worst of the bunch, shifts all of his attention from Ed to Roy. Now, Ed is safe. And now Riza, who is better than Roy is with guns, has two of them and a drive to protect. Putting himself in danger like that was the only way to ensure that they all got out of there safely.
tl;dr Roy Mustang absolutely knew what he was doing; he purposefully put himself in danger to ensure his sons’ safety, while keeping his foolish young upstart facade perfectly in tact.
Okay so I know I literally already sent you a request and you can ignore this but you did 1920s, now how about 1980s???? Roy with a mullet, Riza's hair teased up to high heaven and hairsprayed until it's hard as a rock. Edward wearing terrible punk fashion while Winry wears all those iconique fashion trends. Everyone has shoulder pads.
I LOVE YOU FOR ASKING THIS, THANK YOU <3
