Mob Psycho 100 (モブサイコ１００)

i see a lot of people talk about edward being disabled in fma, but it's less often talked about how alphonse is also disabled. i think it's partially because alphonse doesn't experience physical pain like edward so for a majority of the series, he's not having any of those kind of symptoms, but he is still disabled. also because alphonse's experiences are unique. like you don't see ant walking, talking suits of armour in real life (unless they're piloted by a human being physically inside them) and in world, there are about 3 others like alphonse).

alphonse is dependent on edward's survival to function. after fighting scar for the first time, alphonse is literally in pieces. he can't walk or anything until edward is in a position to fix him. similarly his body is dependent on nutrients from edward's body. like there's the point towards the end where edward gets impaled and alphonse collapses. furthermore, these periods where alphonse collapses start to become debilitating towards the end of the series and massively alter his daily living.

also, alphonse constantly talks about how upsetting it is for him to not feel any physical sensations. yeah, he's not feeling physical pain, but he's also not feeling the warmth of a fire, the sun on his face, or the fluffiness of the cats he keeps petting. he talks a lot about not being able to eat or sleep, and how there's a lot of foods he wants to try.

there's another thing that highlighted by edward at one point. alphonse's body doesn't regenerate at all. the parts scar destroys are gone forever; edward stretches out the metal that alphonse has left to repair his body. and obviously human beings don't regrow limbs, but imagine if your skin didn't ever heal over a cut. how long would your body last?

also alphonse gets told several times that his body is great throughout the series, and he literally argues against it every time, because to him it is shit. like he is missing some of his senses just for some supposedly immortal body that isn't even immortal.

even once alphonse gets his own body back, the amount of physical therapy the boy has to go through. his body has essentially been doing nothing and only receiving what nutrients it can get from edward for years. by the end of the series, he's still using a cane as a walking aid. it's unknown whether he requires that cane for the years to come, but for at least a period of time he requires a mobility aid. I don't know enough to say what effect muscle decay from inactivity and severe malnourishment during a major portion of his teenage years would have long term.

i cant remember/find the post, but there was one that was like “dramatic twiyor reveal except they instantly freak out about leaving anya alone” and. yeah. i agree

buy me a coffee

I'm thinking about this idea a bit more, and I think instead of Shigeo enrolling into UA, even if the General Studies course, I'd like to see Teru take a crack at it actually. Shigeo's off in a non-heroics high school just working on bettering himself while Teru goes straight for UA's Hero course, after all he's worked with Seasoning City's totally legitimate hero and psychic Reigen Arataka.

Teru's already had his development in middle school, and now he gets to impart this wisdom upon the kids of UA, he's an amazing fighter with excellent control over his powers (are they still psychic powers or a Quirk here I haven't decided yet) but most importantly he's a great rescue hero. He always makes sure to get civilians to safety and does what he can to subdue threats, he's gotten plenty of practice in after all the stuff that's gone down in Seasoning after all.

The whole idea of Hawkeye, Mustang, Ed, and Al being a kind of pseudo-family unit will never not be both hilarious and adorable. Ah yes, Mr. and Mrs. War Crimes and their not-children, the unstoppable force and the immovable object.

espers and their auras 💜💙💖💛

FMA Modern AUs are so fun to me because there's just something wonderful imagining Ed having access to the internet. What do you mean he can have a mini computer in his pocket now. He's gotten too powerful.
