Still convinced the most unrealistic thing in Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood is that all the alchemists could draw perfect circles on the fly.
I fully believe in Ed and especially Al being able to do so, but also, that's part of why I think Mustang wears gloves with it already embroidered (painted? Stitched?) On. If mans had to draw a perfect circle he might blow himself up instead of his target
Yeah but then Mustang went and managed to carve a perfect transmutation circle onto his hand while bleeding out that one time.
Which H O W.
It's because he's g- I am forcefully removed from the podium
I propose that making perfect circles is a genetic trait in the FMA universe because any alchemist that CAN'T make a perfect circle leaves the gene pool very very rapidly
This suggests that there could be a future or an alternate universe where children are tested for "perfect circle" gene and turned into killing machines to fight a losing war
that's just the state alchemist exam
i took an art class once where the teacher walked in and drew a giant, perfect circle on the chalk board. everyone gasped. he then drew a small perfect circle, and kept doing that for about a minute, until everyone was yelling incredulously.
then he explained that he once wanted a studio job where the only test was to walk into the room and draw a perfect circle on command. it's extremely difficult, but you can learn to do it if you spend a couple months doing nothing else with your life. the studio wanted artists that would make that commitment, and this teacher made it.
'so we can do that?' someone asked.
'anyone can do this,' the teacher says, 'if they're prepared to spend all summer learning how.'
anyway, i still can't. but i know now that it's possible and it takes about four months. if drawing a perfect circle was the gateway to doing actual magic on a government salary, i think you wouldn't have a shortage of people practicing their circles.
me looking through my own blog: fuck i was so real for this. op your mind is so beautiful. you are always so right.
“are u okay?” no i need more money
looking at your bank account is so scary...like when I spend money it goes away
"It is what it is" I say as I almost vomit from anxiety
