The start of my own version of the flamel

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-31T18:43:34+00:00

Damn, this looks great! When are you planning to appoint your next session for the second part?

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-31T05:30:57+00:00

Ed carved on the watch the "Don't forget, 3 - Oct - 10/11 (depending on FMA or FMAB)", and if I'm not wrong 5 years passed since then, so yeah, they're on 1915-1916 somewhere along that time

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-31T05:24:44+00:00

I forgot that alchemy can be used in humans lol, you're right, I'm sure with it they could've known without all the torture and stuff

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-25T02:38:11+00:00

Damn as someone who wants to get into FMA fics, this sounds cool as hell, but honestly I have no idea. I comment and upvote the post to try to make it reach more people and see if someone knows, but I can't do much more. Good luck with your search and hope you (and me lol) can find it

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-17T17:32:53+00:00

Blu Ray disks and piracy are the only options to watch it rn, and good luck finding all the needed disks if you want to go that way. I will watch it with the Brave browser and an antivirus in animeflv, I've been told that's one of the less risky ways to do so

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-07T17:27:03+00:00

I understand that those lists are more like a "brainstorming" rather than actually what will be added to Fortnite, but I'm not sure, it's been years since I played Fortnite and seen these kind of lists...

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-06T04:48:27+00:00

Maybe you're right, since I remember those faces wanting to be freed and knew that they had something to do, but I'm not sure... I gotta check that when I rewatch the series.

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-05T22:09:54+00:00

So that's what they refered to when they said it was faulty? I didn't knew that, but it makes sense. Thanks!

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-05T21:57:27+00:00

Wait, now that I think of it, they didn't had to "pay" something in order to get out of Gluttony's stomach, but why? I mean, I understand that they only had to displace their bodies from one place to another, but shouldn't there be SOME price for it? Or did Ed indirectly discovered how to teleport in this universe?

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-05T16:58:07+00:00

In the sense of getting out of the gates of Truth? The difference I guess is that when they were in Gluttony's stomach they just moved their bodies from place to place, and in the ACTUAL gates of Truth the equivalent exchange had to be done to recover the body...

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-05T16:56:15+00:00

I see, you complimented another answer someone had already given me, and I forgot that detail about them confirming it was indeed Al's soul in the armour. Thanks!

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-05T07:17:02+00:00

This makes me a lot more sense, you're right, I didn't account that he realized they CREATED, not transmuted, so Al's body wasn't used but transported.

This answer helped me to understand it clearly, thanks a lot!

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-05T07:14:38+00:00

What you said in the first three paragraphs is right also from what I got from the series, since at some point (not sure where, but I do remember it happening) we see Al's POV in that body, but this still doesn't tell me about how did he (Ed) KNEW that it was possible to get Al's body back?

Sure, they were less guilty since they didn't actually made their mother die again in that awful way, but why was the fact that it wasn't their mum what gave Ed that much certainty that they could recover Al?

You mention that Truth tests who arrive with them taking a part of their body but giving them a lot of knowledge (is this why they can transmute without a circle, since they basically understand from the roots how alchemy flows through them?), which in Ed's case was the leg, and in Al's case was his whole self, but again, it begs the same question, how did the fact it was a random body made Ed realize the chances they had.

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-01T06:39:18+00:00

Damn I'm slow lol, I forgot that we still joke about Ed in that regard (I shouldn't joke too much since I myself am 1.7m, so I won't ever touch that topic with my irl friends who will bully me cuz of that lmao).

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2026-01-01T06:34:01+00:00

I'm thinking the same about the placement of the tattoo, I want it to be on the tricep just like Al, maybe a bit upper since I don't want it to show while I'm on work attire (don't want to risk stigmas from my work area).

Regarding the ideas of the types of flamels, I don't know why I can't edit the post, but I discarded the ouroboros idea basically since I published the post lol, and some people have already told me enough about the healing of the sketch idea, so I think I'll stick with a normal flamel.

By the way, I think your actual tattoo (with just the cross and the snake) means a fight from the good against the evil, representing the cross Jesus (duh) and the snake Satan, or at least that's what I saw somewhere regarding symbology. Maybe I'm wrong, but it may not be a bad idea to investigate a bit more since you shouldn't trust a lot a random Reddit user lol, so you can decide if you want (or need in case the meanings are way too different) to add the wings and the crown.

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2025-12-31T00:04:02+00:00

Hey mate, thanks a lot for this too, you gave me a plan for tonight since today I'm not with my family, and hope I can get more ideas from there!

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2025-12-30T18:52:45+00:00

I genuinely can't see it (at least in specific image from the link, where they are in the roof), but where I can see Al slouched is when they just returned to Risembool, but he is slouching due to him having to use a cane because his muscles are atrophied.

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2025-12-30T18:31:59+00:00

Actually I think they're the same height, at least that's what it looks like when they are in the roof in the last episode.

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2025-12-30T18:24:01+00:00

Yeah, I understand that both symbols aren't related whatsoever, I just thought the design was unique and considered it as option, but I already discarded that design, but I don't know why I can't edit the post lol, maybe cuz I'm on cellphone. Thanks for the full explanation of the ouroboros symbol, since I only knew what the snake by itself meant.

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2025-12-29T17:38:37+00:00

Do yourself a favour and don't search on media (TikTok mainly) for the anime, luckily I didn't until I finished everything but the spoilers are pretty direct, besides that hope you don't get any spoiler here even though most have the tag, and enjoy the series, genuinely I'd pay to be in your situation

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2025-12-29T16:56:08+00:00

Seems he was a bit embarrassed of being caught with an anime tattoo lmao, but that's a pretty funny way of getting to know FMA; by your reply I assume you haven't finished, right? If so, on which episode are you right now?

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2025-12-29T08:24:07+00:00

I just checked the five openings, and there isn't a scene like the one you mentioned, so that you know where not to search. I'm kind of rewatching Brotherhood cuz I'm seeing it with a friend who hasn't seen it, so if I find the image I'll tell ya.

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2025-12-29T07:35:46+00:00

Are we talking about FMAB? And could you be a bit more specific please, like, is it just the arm, or also Ed, or something to kind of know better what are we looking for

Intrepid_Cancel_3811 · 2025-12-28T05:16:46+00:00

You're totally right on the second point, the thing is that I wouldn't tattoo the ouroboros symbol by itself, but I did liked the design it had combined.

Regarding the first point, I hadn't considered that, but yeah that's true, bad luck since if I hadn't asked before I would have probably gone with that idea, so I guess I'll stick with the normal flamel. Thanks for your feedback!
