occupational therapist (rehab therapist) coming in to be annoying and say that alphonse’s full recovery probably didn’t happen until well into a year post-promised day. he likely needed hours on hours of physical and occupational therapy and even some swallow/slp too. when you lose that much muscle mass you are unable to walk, eat without aspiration, carry/hold items, do much of anything without feeling extremely short of breath. he probably had some neuropathy too as his body went years without any tactile input. i bet he experienced allodynia (sensation of pain from a stimulus that is usually non-painful), parathesias, and other odd neuropathies. he probably had extreme range of motion limitations, including a contracture or two in his upper extremities, meaning doctors or therapists (probably occupational therapists) would order night splints. now this is me applying modern day med to the early 1900s (when occupational therapy wasn’t even solidified as a profession until 1917) but my general point remains: al had a lot of boo boos that would have realistically taken at least a year to heal completely
Do you think the rockbells could have helped them? they do have experience with physical therapy, granted its for automail. That being said, they are very very learned in the science of anatomy to be able to make machinery compatible with the human nervous system. Im not saying this would make it any faster, im just suggesting that they could have been the ones heading it.
SonicFox won console player of the year again they really said trans rights!!!!

hope you guys know that sonicfox not only said trans rights, but is trans themself. a black nb gamer took their rightful reward right in front of all those racist and transphobic gamer bros out there and im living for it.
my biology professor has such a chaotic energy about him, last week i went to his office hours and somehow we ended up on the topic of gay marriage:
he said that when he lived in texas they changed the law to define marriage as “between a man and a woman in a house of religious worship with the intention to have children” so he filed his taxes as single and when they called him up like “you filed married last year” he was like “you changed the law, i was married by a judge in a courthouse and i have no intention of having kids” and they told him “you know who that law was for” and i guess he hung up on them and did not, in fact, pay taxes as a married man that year
Chaotic good
NO! This is Lawful Good! He is following the LAW! Chaotic doesn’t just mean cheeky!
this is like how Sweden stopped classifying homosexuality as an illness because people started a campaign of calling in gay to work
malicious compliance is one of the best tools in the arsenal of civil rights activism
i am not immune to the “character’s eyes glow when they use their powers” trope
i have this disease that makes me find it hot as fuck when a character’s eyes glow as a warning when they’re really angry or upset and about to use every last shred their power to absolutely waste the shit out of the target of their rage it’s called having excellent taste
