alchemists as a whole. we really are horrible creatures, aren’t we? there’s a side of me that’s desperately trying to crack the theories of human transmutation right now. i think i understand what drove those boys when they tried to…bring back their mother.

10 Most Powerful Lines from the Fullmetal Alchemist Manga

↳ (3/10) Roy Mustang: "He would never subject Alphonse to it."
I’m genuinely upset that they didn’t incorporate this part in the anime (Brotherhood). I feel like it’s very important for the character development and story. It sheds a light on a different perspective of Ed. In both the manga and anime, when he performed human transmutation, Ed was seen as really brave and selfless when giving up his arm for Al’s soul. But what about before that? This is what this scene shows. That Ed was alone. He was scared. He was terrified. Which is so realistic since he was so young at the time. And Mustang’s line of, “he would never subject Alphonse to it,” shows just how much Ed cares for Al, and also shows how the people around him (re: Mustang) can see that too and understand him so well.
