i feel like the edling side of the fma fanbase completely ignores the comedic potential of your brother being swallowed and sent to a hellish other plane of existence with your weird hungry friend and as soon as he comes back and you get to talk to him hes just like “im gay”
and you ask for elaboration and hes like “we ate my boot and i realized i was gay” so now you have so many questions you dont even know where to start
Showing ppl your writing is such a different, more nerve-wracking experience than showing ppl things you’ve drawn bc you have to wait for them to finish reading it and you’re both just sitting there like
“I also think it’s weird in movies, when someone has amnesia, and they wake up in the hospital, a lot of times surrounded by friends and family, but when they open their eyes they go ‘WHO ARE YOU?!’ because that’s not how you act when you don’t recognize somebody. That’s very rude. It would be chaos out there if every time you saw someone you didn’t recognize you went ‘WHO ARE YOU?!’. I always try to be really polite in life, so if I had amnesia, you’d never know it! I’d wake up and they’d be like ‘Hi John, we’re so happy you’re awake’ and I’d just be like, ‘Oh, hey man… How’s it going? Oh hey dude, nice to see you again’ because that’s how you act when you can tell that someone recognizes you and you have no fucking clue who they are.”

Excellent point.
John Mulaney woke up with amnesia once and never told anyone because he was too worried about being rude
The problem with trying to come up with realistic rules for falling damage in your tabletop RPG is that falling doesn’t follow rules. There are people who’ve survived falling from airliners at cruising altitude, and there are people who’ve died falling out of bed. Falling is, fundamentally, bullshit.
