Also I Am 100% On Board If You Ever Wanted To Co-write It - Tumblr Posts
GIRLIE, WHAT IF I TOLD YOU ED MIGHT HAVE KILLES ONE PERSON IN THE PROCESS??
Maybe they entered on a torturing session when they rescued their dad and Ed and Al stood frozen- think like, when they saw Tucker after what he did to Nina? How Ed just jumped at him and might have almost killed him?? Yes, i thinking he might have killed that one person even if he was't the one in charge. I think Ed might have a crisis so Mama Riza ™️ helps him cope through that part? Because she was also young when she took her first life, ( aka 19ish ( i headcanon younger.)) and Ed is like 15-16 so she helps him, maybe Roy does too?? Since he was also young when he was deployed to Ishval ( i headcanon him 17 or 18 when he was sent there.)
But like, you are so right, Riza will be like one night, “ alright boys, i will be back by dawn, If you need anything, call Pinako.”
Ed, Al, Roy, “ ??? Mhm okay.”
Riza at 1 am, *fires her sniper at a few generals.* “ Oops. My hand slipped.” But seriously talking, i don't think Ed or Al would have minded Riza murdering these people. Maybe they take them to court because they have kidnapped a state alchemist and hurt an officer and from what i know that is illegal and should be punished, so maybe she kills them after court because it wasn't ruled out fairly? Hmm
ALSO I AM THIS 🤏🏻 CLOSE TO MAKING HIS MEN TRAITORS BECAUSE I LOVE THAT TROPE SM, IT HAS SO MUCH ANGST I WOULD SCREAM
but also like. His men are wholesome so i feel bad, but imagine the guilt they have? I truly liked your idea so so so much, and maybe they feel guilty after Riza comes?
Like they deliver Roy To his “ mission.” aka his kidnapping, they don't really think about it, but when Riza comes back from her mission and asks them what they were thinking, they feel this guilt and they try to fix things but 3 hot-headed blonds are very protective of their black haired man ( i know like, the 03 has Al as a brown haired person but god i love him as a blondie.) +Winry is there with her wrench ( beacue why mess with her uncle/ future father in law??) and Pinko is pissed “ don't come at my patient!”
Somehow the team, knows about the Mustang-Hawkeye-Elric family (or as i like to nickname them the Pegasus family.) and they come in visits and FOUND FAMILY DRAMA. I also want Roy To yell his guts out especially to his ma ( if we ever include her because i think that she is very interesting and she could be a good mother or bad mother!) i am just feeling the feels right now 😭
ALSO, i am just thinking about how evil the military was for Roy while he was a captive for like, maybe few weeks/ a couple of months? They could have absolutely destroyed him oh my god.
I am just imagining that first time Roy sees Riza and they don't talk, right, Because they are that close, only eyes are talking. So it is in Roy’s bedroom ( ahem Roy and the boys’ bedroom.) and she just sits on his bed and looks him in the eyes, and cups his cheeks and he breaks down ugly sobbing
This shouldn't be this fun but i am having so much fun. Also i am playing with the idea that Roy has some sort of memory loss the first few days after the rescue until he sees something in the Rockbell’s house that triggers him and he remembers?
Gonna be real, but i cannot stop thinking about recovery fics and how beautiful they are. They are amazing, the way we see the character gets better always just makes me feel so inspired, the way that they learn to get over- or get around- the thing that hurt them. The way that they learn to be alive and living. How to love themselves and embrace what happened to them.
As much as i love these types of fics, i only wrote like, two maybe? With this idea (I love and have written torture more than recovery) . And it got me thinking… why not write a whole recovery fic?
It is no secret that i love parental Roy and Riza to the Elrics, and how they take him after he was being hurt and help him recover and be better and feel better.
BUT
But.
I am proposing another idea. Same child parent dynamic. Roy And the Elrics. Here is what i am thinking:
Evil Millirty hating how good and you Mustang is and they know he is a threat + them setting up to kidnap him by evil gang or something + team Mustang for some reason not being that loyal in finding him + Elrics stop their red stone research and to find their missing dad CO+ THEM SAVING THIER ADULT + FAMILY DRAMA AND PROTECTIVE SONS™️= my new fic idea
Which has traumatized Roy who is trying his best not being so traumatized but in the middle of it all, the Elrics discover How badly hurt thier adult is!
WHO IS WITH ME!!?
