Danny Devito and Jeff Goldblum both give off chaotic energies, but in opposite directions. One is the yin to the other’s yang. However, both are everyone’s uncle
FMA has a lot of subtle symbolism but the least subtle is probably the “Ed has a lot of issues with his father” symbolism. The FMA manga starts on the Leore arc and ends on the Promises Day arc so what I mean is Ed started and ended the series by pummeling the shit out of someone named “Father”
I love all the FMA arcs in fact
Father Cornello arc – bad dad tries to cultivate religious army. Ed punches.
Shou Tucker arc – bad dad is the worst dad. Ed punches.
Hughes dies arc – good dad is dead dad :(. Ed punches himself emotionally.
Greed arc – Greed dad bad dad.
Ling and Mei arc – These two share a bad dad. They fight about it.
Hohenheim returns arc – bad dad, source of all Ed’s bad dad problems, returns. Ed punches eventually.
King Bradley reveal arc – Bradley is bad dad. Ed doesn’t punch but he did fake-assassinate him once.
Ishval backstory arc – Riza’s dad is bad dad. Ed’s not available for punching.
Promised Day arc – Boy Does Ed Sure Punch This Bad Dad
And Santa’s all like, “You know, I can handle a few spelling mistakes, I got this,” and Lucifer is like “They’re addressed to me, fuck off, I’m doing it.”
Lucifer being protective of his fanmail is ceaselessly entertaining.
*deep and booming Satan voice* “Belphagor!”
“You summoned me, Your Infernal Majesty?”
“Belphagor, do we have any Barbie dolls in our stores?”
“We certainly do. Would you like one whose eyes glow red or one that chants Your praises in the middle of the night?”
*deep and booming Satan sigh* “Ugh, are all our Barbies possessed?”
“I am pleased to say so, Your Infernal Majesty.”
“Well, un-possess one of them. You heard me! Melody Lian wants a veterinarian Barbie, the one with a cat not the one with a dog. And Belphagor! Make sure the cat has the right number of limbs this time.”
“And let us see, Isaiah Stanfield who asked for a musical instrument will be receiving… a kazoo?”
“The instrument I judged to be most annoying yet still within his likely ability to play, my lord!”
“So young Isaiah will receive this miserable piece of plastic, apparently the finest gift you think I can offer him from my vast holdings, on Christmas morning only to have it confiscated by his parents by New Year’s. Leaving him with no present at all.” *Satan grows even taller, his voice drops dangerously* “Do you wish to make a fool of me, Belphagor?”
“N-no, Your Infernal Majesty! Please, mercy!”
“You will have a suitable present for Isaiah by the time I return. And I expect no more mistakes.” *Satan storms off, muttering* “A million demons at my beck and call and I still have to do everything in this Pit myself…”
Captain Buccaneer’s smirk and salute when Major General Olivier Armstrong rolls out of the elevator in a fucking tank is arguable one of the best scenes in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
me, waking up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night: the rockbells trained den to be a therapy/support dog for automail patients which is why pinako trusts den to watch ed and why den always follows ed around when he’s in resembool
