Here’s something for your soul: Every single time Ed is cold, Roy’s jacket is on him within seconds. Ed doesn’t even get to FINISH the complaint of “its cold/I’m cold” the jacket is already on his shoulders. It’s like a reflex or an instinct. It gets to the point Team Mustang jokes around and says “you might as well just give it to him every time he steps into the office” and flustered Dad Roy™️ is just like “I just don’t want to hear his annoying complaints, okay?!”
I pretty much answer to the philosophy that Ed stole one of Roy’s 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
We’re indoctrinated from childhood with the idea that staying home sick is somehow suspect or lazy, and that morally superior people never have their productivity schedule compromised lol, when the reality is that going out in public when you’re sick is a terrible thing to do to immune-compromised and chronically ill people (and “healthy” people) and staying home is a good thing and a right we should all have, not only for our own sakes but for others’
hot take: ‘chivalry’ is fine as long as it’s adapted to 21st century values. if you are a male, you SHOULD be aware that your female friends face certain issues that you as a male dont. acting on that awareness in a way that keeps your female friends safe, isn’t a bad thing.
like… opening doors isn’t rly chivalrous when it’s just a thing you ought to do for everyone. but real 21st century chivalry might be, like, standing between your female friend and the guy that’s trying to get her drunk, or offering to walk her home when it’s late.
if the ‘chivalry’ inconveniences everyone involved and you’re just doing it for your over-inflated male ego — ie, “no you’re the girl here, you HAVE to let me hold this door for you and do all these things for you even when you can do it yourself and im just slowing you down” — then it’s just outdated misogyny.
