Ling Yao is one of the luckiest sons a bitches in FMA, he has repeatedly been in situations that if it wasn’t the right place and time he would have fucked entirely fully and completely up. to wit: been very in jail when a serial murderer just so happened to pass by and convincing him to not only let him out but also not murder him! as just one of the examples. His entire “”””plan””” is to make an incredibly rash decision and then roll nat 20s through the entire encounter until the event is over for him and it Works pretty much every time.

It is amazing. 

but fucking Actually though 

dude straight up arrives in a foreign country with no plan, no money, no food and no sense and when he passes out in an abandoned alley instead of being eaten by rats like any respectable member of society he instead gets literally plucked up by not one, but TWO alchemists that just so happen to be two thirds of the total number of living people that know the secret of a philosopher’s stone and Aren’t in on the massive government conspiracy to murder everyone 

from the second this asshole entered canon he was already bending the laws of reality to his will while face down in the dirt
