Edward Elric is a great character (like everyone in FMA but this post is about Ed) not just because he suffers and struggles and goes through so much pain before the end of his story. But because this little dude feels so human!!!
He has a short temper. He sucks at drawing. He hates milk. He’s loved science since he was little. He really likes making gaudy as fuck weapon designs because he thinks they’re cool. He wears three layers of clothing in the fucking desert because he refuses to ditch the badass red coat. He loves his little brother more than life itself and is willing to die for him at a moment’s notice. He lashes out because he’s 15 and doesn’t know how else to handle all the things he’s Feeling. He’s a teenager who’s had the responsibilities of an adult forced on him since his mother died and hasn’t let himself be a kid since then. He loves dogs. He bonds with a little girl because she wants to play with him.
He’s a person. He feels like one. He’s so easy to sympathize with because he’s so much more than just his suffering. You see all his little character traits, and you see a whole person there!! He’s a kid!! He acts like a real kid who’s in way over his head and doesn’t realize it. He’s doing his best. Someone hug this poor dumbass.
For a second I didn’t realize it meant “high” as in a stoner–I thought “High Geologist” was like a rank of geologist or something and he was insulted you would challenge him to naming stones
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
