one does wonder though, he got stabbed through the hands….how can he snap?
that had to hurt.
Yeah I imagine it hurt like a bitch but this is the man who was stabbed through the stomach, basically set himself on fire to burn the wounds closed, carved a transmutation circle into the back of his hand using god knows what kind of sharp object and then walked quite a long distance and remained standing for at least five minutes whilst he killed a homunculus.
In both of these instances Roy must have been in a lot of pain but he ignored it because he needed to help people he loved who were in danger. I have this headcanon that although it’s a sort of running gag throughout the entire series, Roy hates nothing more than being seen as useless and is actually really affected by people calling him useless. Therefore he’ll do pretty much anything to be of use to people who need him. That’s why, despite being in so much pain and having no eyesight, he still insists on taking part in the final battle; because he wants to be useful.
This all links back to his promise: “I’ll do anything in my power to protect the people I love”.
iirc the sharp object he used to carve the transmutation circle in his hand was a corkscrew
What’s funny is when you read articles about what happened, they never mention how Yahoo promised no ads only to put in ads anyway, pissing off and alienating users. They never mention that Verizon’s idea of “no adult content” was to implement poorly trained bots to clear the site of anything that looked like a tittie, which utterly failed at clearing the site of adult content or spam bots and instead forced millions of SFW users, especially artists, off the site. Instead they just say “Verizon’s decision to ban adult content upset and alienated many users.” Like no, that’s not even remotely what happened. I get new porn/spam bot follows daily even now, the problem is the worst its ever been, Verizon failed spectacularly at doing what they said they’d do (including protecting artists etc. from being targeted by their algorithms). The news wants the public to believe that we all threw a hissy fit and left en masse like a crowd of depraved neckbeards when tumblr banned adult content, driving the site into the ground as we left. Not a single article I’ve seen has discussed how Verizon/Yahoo is at fault. Not one.
… do they not know that it’s their own fault?? Do they genuinely think that we’re all mad about the “lack of pornography”???
