The People's Alchemist on YouTube

Summary:

The People's Alchemist, an internet-famous political vlogger known for his explosive temper, sharp insights, and scathing commentary, runs into smooth-talking Fuhrer Candidate Roy Mustang in a supermarket, of all places, and sparks fly.

Luckily, his dedicated fans are there to document the whole thing.

Notes:

I've had this idea floating around in my head for a long time, but I didn't have the confidence in my fluency in social media to write it until November last year, when I made it my NaNoWriMo project (severely overestimating how many words I would be able to squash into a Social Media Fic). Which, Disclaimer; I swear I finished this in November 2019. I felt more than a little prophetic when the whole Covid mess hit, ngl.

But then the UK election in December happened, and I couldn't even look at this fic without feeling sick to my stomach and angry enough to chew rocks and spit sand. Because (I promise) the people in this fic get a happy ending, but reality didn't. But I finally calmed down enough to look at it again, and decided I might as well post it.

OMG you’ll never guess who I just spotted in the freaking supermarket! #ThePeople’sAlchemist

 

KayDan @thecakeisalie

Replying to @monstergirl

Lucky! Get his autograph!

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

It’s so weird when you see celebrities doing normal people things

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

OH HOLY SHIT I think I’m about to witness a murder XD Politician spotted ahoy, and #ThePeople’sAlchemist is on the warpath!

 

Doctor Meow @kittenlover310

Replying to @monstergirl

Oh, dear.

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Dude! He just walked right up to him like ‘you’re that Mustang guy, right?’ and then just started fxcking interrogating him!

 

Jenny Woodall @sn0wb04rd3r

Replying to @monstergirl

omg for real?! what’s he asking? what’s mustang saying? give us the deets, girl!

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

@sn0wb04rd3r Ok, so 1st he asked Mustang if he actually gives a fxck, or if he’s just ‘in this to win the country’s biggest popularity contest’

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

@RoyMustang actually said both, smarmy fxcker, so the People’s Alchemist asked why he’s not stopping the privatisation of the healthcare system

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Omg, he didn’t let @RoyMustang get any further than ‘it’s a complicated issue-’

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Of course, smooth xsshole wasn’t phased by the rant, just stepped in with a segue about funding and taxes, and making sure money gets to where it’ll be most useful

 

KayDan @thecakeisalie

Replying to @monstergirl

Lmao, big mistake!

 

ProfOak @hollyking

Replying to @monstergirl

Oh, look, @RoyMustang ducking out of making any commitments at all, what a surprise

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

#ThePeople’sAlchemist challenged him to explain where he thought ‘most useful’ was

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

‘Where it will benefit the people, of course’ Yeah, yeah, @RoyMustang, I’m with the People’s Alchemist here ‘GIMME SPECIFICS, BXSTARD’

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

…Okay, give him credit, @RoyMustang didn’t even hesitate to roll out those numbers. I got kinda lost there tbh, but it looks like someone’s finally got his game face on

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Oooh, the People’s Alchemist just brought up the Creta civil war, asking for Mustang’s stand on ‘interfering in another country’s government’ and if he thinks we should continue funding that

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

God, I wish @RoyMustang could give us a single straight answer. He’s just acknowledging both sides of the argument and not actually taking a damn stand.

 

Cowgirl Jesse @cuddleslut51

Replying to @monstergirl

Hey, at least there’s one politician who isn’t just throwing his weight around, backing whatever screaming mob he thinks will get him more votes.

 

ProfOak @hollyking

Replying to @monstergirl

What sides? Like, specifically, what is he saying?

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

AHAHAHA @RoyMustang’s FACE when #ThePeople’sAlchemist brought up that badly covered up bombing of a hospital

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Replying to @hollyking

He said that ‘assuming one knows best about someone else’s problems is always dangerous’ and so on, but then added ‘letting violence be done in front of you and doing nothing to stop it is not a neutral act’

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

@RoyMustang recovered quick, though. Looked appropriately serious as he brushed off any sort of culpability - ‘I certainly plan to run a tighter ship than the current government once I’m Fuhrer’

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

‘And while we’re on the subject of cover-ups, got anything to say about the government’s policy on human experimentation on convicts in death row?’ #ThePeople’sAlchemist BRINGING OUT THE BIG GUNS!

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

LMFAO Honestly never seen smooth-xss fxcker @RoyMustang ever look so poleaxed so often in one freaking conversation

 

KayDan @thecakeisalie

Replying to @monstergirl

HOOBOY! This is why #ThePeople’sAlchemist is the best!

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Holy shit though, @RoyMustang actually took a fxcking stand on something! ‘Bodily autonomy is a basic human right’

 

Jenny Woodall @sn0wb04rd3r

Replying to @monstergirl

too damn fuCKING RIGHT IT IS

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

OH SHIT! #ThePeople’sAlchemist just keeps upping the ante! Quote in next tweet, cuz I ran out of characters!

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

‘So you consider criminals people, then? Yeah? Because if they’re people, they oughta have the right to fxcking VOTE FOR THEIR GOVERNMENT like the rest of the fxcking PEOPLE in this fxcking country, RIGHT?!’ #ThePeople’sAlchemist

Replying to @14khaleesi14

That’s DISGUSTING! I can’t believe I had to read that with my OWN TWO EYES! YOU’RE SO WRONG, but IF YOU WEREN’T I would THROW DOWN to defend #ThePeople’sAlchemist from skeevy-ass politicians!

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Replying to @14khaleesi14

Uh, I really don’t think so? Anyway, why would a soulless politician be interested in someone who actually has a brain and, like, uses it to form sensible opinions based on facts?

 

Dany’s Darling @14khaleesi14

Replying to @sn0wb04rd3r @no1alchemistFAN and @monstergirl

i’m just saying, he looks impressed, not angry or disgusted or anything

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

‘It could be said that if one isn’t willing to play by the rules, one shouldn’t have input into the crafting of said rules’ Oh, fxck off, Mustang, show me a single politicians that’s EVER played by the rules

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

‘Even if that was true, which it fxcking isn’t, by the way, it’s not about whether they should or shouldn’t, it’s about NOT INCENTIVISING THE INCARCERATION OF PEOPLE WHO DISAGREE WITH THE GOVERNMENT!’ #ThePeople’sAlchemist

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

The rant was a LOT longer than that, but that was the Teal Deer

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Omg, I hate this guy! ‘I said it COULD be said, not that I agreed with it’ @RoyMustang THEN WHY EVEN BRING IT UP FFS

 

Vote Mustang @avery777avery

Replying to @monstergirl

omfg, get off ur hatetrain, he literally jst said tht he doesn’t agree w denying criminals the vote, n ur still findin sht to b mad at him about? wtf make up ur goddamned mind n stop attacking the only decent politician we’ve got!

 

Kimas @no1alchemistFAN

Replying to @avery777avery

He’s being a smarmy tricksy weasel, and I bet he just said that to get #ThePeople’sAlchemist to back off because he couldn’t deal with so much TRUTH being thrown in his face!

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

#ThePeople’sAlchemist totally dragging @RoyMustang for his ambiguous bullshit rn, and I am NOT the only one watching.

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Oh, they’re back on taxes now, Mustang segued into it with talk about there are a lot of things he’d like to do but he ‘can’t make any promises’ because of uncertain funding. Coward.

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

OMG I’m C R Y I N G #ThePeople’sAlchemist just brought up his Milk Tax idea!!!

 

ProfOak @hollyking

Replying to @monstergirl

Christ, I wish he wouldn’t keep bringing that up. Everything else he says is so sensible, but that makes it so hard to take him seriously.

 

Jenny Woodall @sn0wb04rd3r

Replying to @hollyking

omg he’s not SERIOUS it’s just a joke! lighten up, ffs

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

‘You know, I think that’s the first genuinely ridiculous thing you’ve said to me’ At least @RoyMustang can recognise SENSE when it’s YELLING IN HIS FACE

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

OMG WHAT. WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!

Just because you maybe don’t like someone’s career doesn’t mean you should hope for violence. I hope everyone’s okay?

 

Leviathan @monstergirl

Have you considered that his vague language and deliberate avoidance of committing to anything controversial might be a clever tactic to keep the rabid right-wingers from slandering his good name until he’s already in power and can’t be ousted for a full term of office?

calmdownponyboy

Is it just me, or do some of these quotes sound eerily similar?

 

aqua_vitae

Help! I can’t see the gifs?!

 

littleredridinghoodie

First gif: A boyishly good-looking, dark-haired, pale-faced man in a simple blue suit, sitting on a beige couch with one arm braced over the back, windows showing the Central skyline at night behind him, smiling flirtatiously a little off to the right of the camera, caption says ‘I think it’s vital that the government strive for transparency and accountability in the coming years.’

Second gif: A tanned blonde-haired young man with yellow eyes in a too-big bright red sweater and baggy black trousers sitting cross-legged on an unmade black bed with a mug in one hand and a poster of the periodic table on the cream-coloured wall behind him, he’s gesturing wildly with his free, automail hand and glowering directly at the camera, caption says ‘What we really need after all this shit is some goddamned fucking honesty from our own fucking government so we can hold them accountable properly.’

Third gif: Same man in the same setting as the first gif, but this time leaning forwards, elbow braced on one knee, cheek propped on his fist, caption says ‘In most of the civilised world, the death penalty is considered barbaric, so I do have to question whether there ought to be a death row at all.’

Fourth gif: Blonde from the second gif pacing in a small and fairly cramped kitchen, brown tile floor, pale yellow cabinet doors, off-white countertops. He’s in black boxers and a black tank top and his hair is in a braid, his right arm and left leg are automail, and the caption says ‘It’s fucking barbaric that we still have the death penalty here, and I don’t care what crimes they committed, it’s wrong.’

Fifth gif: Same man and setting as the first and third gifs, arms crossed and leaning back into the couch, giving the camera an innocent smile with one eyebrow raised, and the caption says ‘It’s the government’s job to guide and protect the community, and the community needs it’s communal spaces such as parks and libraries in order to stay a community.’

Sixth gif: Same man from the second and fourth gifs, but this time lying on a probably-was-green-once couch with a hole in one of the arms leaking stuffing, and a bookshelf crammed with textbooks behind it, he’s wearing black leather trousers, black boots, and a red coat, and he’s looking at the ceiling. The caption says ‘Libraries are the foundation of community and knowledge in our society, and they’re trying to destroy them.’

aqua_vitae

At the risk of setting off a Discourse(TM), I gotta ask, cause I know everyone on the actual video was making jokes about voting Mustang just cause The People’s Alchemist is gonna, but do y’all really mean it? He seems really insincere to me, is all, and All Politicians Are Liars after all, so, I get that his policies (at least those he’ll actually make proper promises about) look good on paper, but… I’m still not convinced, is all.

 

lucifermorgernstern666

Honestly? Yeah. If Mustang is good enough to convince The People’s Alchemist, he’s good enough for me. I’m not really good at politics and all that stuff, too gullible or whatever, but The People’s Alchemist really gets what, well, the people need and want. If he thinks Mustang is the best way of getting some of that, I trust his judgement more than I trust anyone else’s. Idk.

 

rrrubyrrredrrrose

I was gonna vote mustang anyway tbh the people’s alchemist just made a better case for why than I could’ve. best of a bunch of bad options, and all that. he’s smarmy and insincere, sure, but I can’t actually find proof that he’s lied to us. everyone else? proof. it’s out there if you’re willing to look for it. they’re all fucking liars. I’m taking a chance on the new up-and-comer.

 

thecakeisalie_noreally

What @lucifermorgernstern666 said. I really don’t like him, but, dude, if I could vote for The People’s Alchemist, I would. Since I can’t, who he’s going to vote for is a the next best thing, yeah?

 

hollytheoakking

The faith you guys have in The People’s Alchemist is really heartwarming, but I’m still not sold. I really don’t like how unwilling he is to commit to much of anything. Little things, here and there, but nothing really substantial? He keeps saying he’ll ‘look into’ this or he’ll ‘consider options for’ that, but that’s really freaking vague, okay? We have no idea which way he might fall on any of those issues. Does he actually want to give criminals the vote, or does he just want us to think he will so we’ll vote for him? And that’s not even getting into how he won’t even comment at all on Ishval. I’ve been watching more of his interviews and public appearances and so on, since The People’s Alchemist endorsed him, and it’s the least subtle thing about him, the way he’ll change the subject the moment Ishval comes up. I suppose it is better than being outright racist like some of the others, but I still don’t like it.

 

stareintotheabyss

wait, he wants to WHAT NOW? you’re actually planning to vote for someone who wants to give criminals the vote? tf?

 

hollytheoakking

Democracy Or Dictatorship

The Problems With The Justice System

Stuff That’s Illegal That Shouldn’t Be

Death Row Experiments

Just a few examples of some very articulate rants about why stripping criminals of the right to vote gives the government a vested interest in arresting political dissenters. Which, by the way, if you can’t figure it out for yourself, is bad . It means we’re not actually living in a democracy, and as the people with a voice, it’s our duty to speak up for those without. Criminals deserve the right to vote.

(Not that Mustang has ever said he’s going to reinstate the right to vote for criminals, just that he might not agree with the notion that they shouldn’t have the right to vote. Typical.)

 

kimas_the_alchemist_fan

Well said! I am definitely Voting Mustang now. But I bet y’all knew that. The People’s Alchemist’s word is L A W on this blog.

He votes Mustang, we vote Mustang!

 

sugarcoatedfecalmatter

i barely knew this guy even existed before the people’s alchemist did that video but if you actually read the sources and shit he linked in the description he’s not pulling that analysis outta his ass or anything. if you like the shit the people’s alchemist has to say which i figure you gotta if we’re even talking about this then mustang looks like your best bet of getting a half way decent government in the next election. he might be wishy-washy but honestly i think that’s a good thing. he’s actually real careful not to commit to anything unless he’s real sure he’s gonna do it if he gets in. when was the last time any other politician took that much care in wtf ever they said on tv huh?

I’m so glad Mustang’s getting some new supporters! You guys give me hope that the next election isn’t going to be a total trashfire

BREAKING NEWS – EXPLOSIONS IN GOVERNMENT LABORATORY

 

[IMAGE]

 

In the early hours of the morning, the defunct Laboratory Five collapsed, causing tremors all throughout Central City and damaging several nearby buildings, including one of Central’s top security prisons. Several people were taken to hospital, despite the fact that the building should have been empty.

The collapse was caused by a series of explosions, which began around 03:15 in the morning. The first explosion was the largest, and believed to be responsible for the collapse of the building. However, several smaller explosions followed on from the initial blast, causing more damage to the surrounding buildings. Central Prison, which is right next to Laboratory 5 was the most damaged, aside from the Laboratory itself, with one exterior wall completely collapsed, and several more structures damaged.

The prison confirmed that all the inmates are accounted for, although several were injured and taken to hospital in the wake of the disaster. Exact numbers of casualties are not yet available, and the hospital refused to comment on the state of patients wounded in the explosion.

Fuhrer Bradley himself was witnessed overseeing the clean up crews and reassuring residents of a nearby tenement building whose homes were damaged in the tremors caused by the explosion. He was not taking questions from the press, but his representative went on record saying that there were plans in place to demolish the building, but that something must have gone wrong with the charges. “The Government will take full responsibility for this terrible accident, of course, and there will be an inquiry to determine exactly what went wrong so that we can prevent further tragedies,” spokesperson Lyra Dantes tells us.

The demolition was outsourced to Blackburn Demolition And Excavation, which has been unavailable for comment on the accident. Further information will doubtless become available as the rubble is cleared away and the investigation can get underway.

I know! I seriously got chills watching this vid. not that I don’t get it, though, you know?

 

Betta Fish

you should only be scared if you’re part of the government, so don’t worry
if you ARE though, worry A LOT, cuz yeah, this guy got murder writ all over his face

 

Lomasi

He should be more angry than ever! Everyone should be! I know I’m pissed off as all hell. This is the most disgusting disregard for people’s lives the government has shown since Ishval. Nothing in the past decade even comes close, and that’s really fucking saying something.

@Aoife Laroux Not contacts! Rare genetic variant! Originates from Xerxes!
Dr Alphonse Elric actually wrote a paper on it a while back!

I’m really impressed by how deep The People’s Alchemist dug into this. Like, the whole trail from the fake demolition cover story to the whole history of the lab to how it connects to that medical experiments scandal to the deliberate inflammation of what’s been going on in Liore because they wanted to test stuff, to all the names he managed to put to this. That’s a huge amount of investigative work he must have done, no wonder it’s taken him a few days to get this video out. I’m surprised it didn’t take longer, actually.

lots of conspiracy here so why is no one asking if that explosion was deliberate? i mean it’s a really bad (or good, whichever) time for this to start coming out, with the elections coming up. that’s a pretty obvious motive for foul play, right?

Who are you thinking of?
Bradley’s out, because he’s the one responsible for this mess.
Grand was implicated, too, so I doubt it was him.
Armstrong could’ve, and she’s the most likely to have known about it.
Halcrow might’ve, and he’d benefit most from anyone else losing voters.
Mustang might’ve, since he’s Bradley’s strongest opposition.

If you’re worried, come see Dr Marcoh! There’s a link in the video description to his page. He keeps his location updated so people who need him can find him.

 

The People’s Alchemist

Here’s what you can do to help keep yourself safe:
1) Get a medical mask, or if you can’t, use a scarf or something to cover your nose and mouth
2) Filter or boil your water before you drink it
3) Wash stuff. A lot. (In filtered or boiled water, obviously.) Your hands. Your food. Just keep clean.
4) Stay calm.

sneksnootboop

Wait wait wait WHAT? Can’t see the pictures on mobile for some reason, can someone…?

 

marigold_and_thyme

Oh, shit, sure, sweetheart

So, all the pictures were taken in The Copper Vine, which is really famous for it’s antique theme and mood lighting. Everything’s amber-toned because of the authentic gas lamps, the tables are all dark mahogany, the floor is herringbone patterned and the walls are red with metallic copper-wire patterns. It’s a pretty cosy atmosphere for one of the more expensive restaurants in Central. And, of course, sitting right at one of the cute little seats-two tables right beside one of the white-veined red marble pillars are Roy Mustang and the People’s Alchemist. (Does anyone know his real name?)

They’re both dressed up fancy, Mustang in a three-piece suit and tie with his hair slicked back. The suit is black and the tie and the pocket square are red, which matches his date’s red shirt. The People’s Alchemist is in a charcoal waistcoat and slacks over his red shirt, and he’s got his hair up in a ponytail.

In the first picture they’re still waiting for their food, and the People’s Alchemist is obviously talking very enthusiastically about something, gesturing widely and leaning forward a bit, all intense energy, and Mustang is sitting across from him with his cheek propped on a fist, smiling a small, soft little smile that makes him look entirely besotted.

In the second picture, Mustang is laughing, eyes squeezed shut and head tipped back, sitting a little lopsided because he’s got one arm around his ribs, the other has very clearly just put his glass down a little too hastily, if the red stain on the tablecloth is anything to go by. The People’s Alchemist is watching him, grinning rather bashfully. (Mustang still has half his meal left in this one but The People’s Alchemist’s plate is already just crumbs.)

In the third picture, they’ve got their deserts (the People’s Alchemist has some sort of cake-and-ice-cream monstrosity drowning in a red syrup, Mustang has a tart covered in dusted sugar) and Mustang is holding out a forkful of his own dessert for the People’s Alchemist to try. The People’s Alchemist is blushing darkly and scowling, but he’s also leaning forwards with his mouth open, so he’s obviously not that upset.

 

sneksnootboop

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

rrrubyrrredrrrose

that’s so romantic I love it I love them

 

hollytheoakking

Well, I suppose it’s good to know why the People’s Alchemist is suddenly so biased in favour of Mustang. I’ve got to admit, though, I’m a little disappointed he’s so easily swayed by a pretty face and a smooth pick up line. Does anyone know where I can find a less biased breakdown of Mustang’s policies?

 

kimas_the_alchemist_fan

OMG HOW DARE. Seriously? Do you SERIOUSLY think the PEOPLE’S ALCHEMIST could EVER BE THAT SHALLOW?! Have we been watching COMPLETELY different channels this whole time?! Like, dude, I am as shocked and confused as anyone – AND OBVIOUSLY MUSTANG ISN’T GOOD ENOUGH FOR HIM – but are you seriously trying to imply that he, what, sold out or some shit?! The People’s Alchemist? IT’S LIES AND SLANDER, I TELL YOU, LIES AND SLANDER! He would never!

 

hollytheoakking

I’m not trying to malign his character or anything, for god’s sake. I’m just saying, he is biased, okay. He’s dating the guy, of course he’s going to be biased. But I don’t want to base my political opinion on what Mustang’s boyfriend has to say about him. I don’t think that’s unreasonable.

 

absolutecuddleslut51

Um… but if they both only got to know each other because they’re both involved with politics, surely they wouldn’t have started dating and all that if they didn’t already have compatible viewpoints? Isn’t it more likely to be that their political views are influencing their relationship than that their relationship influenced their political views?

 

hollytheoakking

I don’t think that’s how it works. I just want to double check that my opinion hasn’t been influenced by bias, that’s all. I can’t go to the official news, because if it’s not blatantly pro-Bradley, then it treats Grand as the only other legitimate candidate, I don’t like a lot of the talk shows, and there aren’t that many political reviewers that focus on Amestrian politics. The People’s Alchemist was my go-to about politics because he was the least biased source I could find, but now he is biased, so I need to look somewhere else. I wondered if anyone had any recs, that’s all.

 

fullmetalfootupyourass

Unpopular opinion incoming, but for fuck’s sake guys, the People’s Alchemist isn’t actually a reporter, you know? He’s not a fucking news channel. It’s all his own personal opinions. Yeah, he backs his shit up with facts because he’s a bloody scientist, and that’s how that shit works, but it’s still just his fucking opinion. He’s biased as all shit about politics because he’s fucking disabled, just for a fucking start. So, yeah, he probably is being influenced by Mustang’s opinions and shit, that’s how knowing people fucking works, but, like, the same is probably true in reverse, too, you know? Mustang probably wouldn’t have taken such a firm stand on the whole Lab 5 thing if he hadn’t been dating someone whose mum died in a fucking a plague, right?

And here you go, @hollytheoakking, some relatively unbiased news sources for you:

Avarice (pretends to be a gossip rag, but they’re actually serious journalists, and they cover politicians from time to time)

The Oasis (Ishval-centric, so there’s bias there, but again, serious journalists, stick to the facts, not funded by anyone affiliated with the government, a by-the-people for-the-people type deal)

Vote For Who (this place has links to the official manifesto of every party running in the election, no opinions, no gossip, just what each candidate has officially stated they’ll do if they get voted in)

 

lucifermorgernstern666

His Mum died in a plague? When did he say that? I thought I’d watched all his videos.

 

kimas_the_alchemist_fan

He mentioned it in ‘Why Alchemy?’ but it’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment.

PLAYBOY POLITICIAN AND HIS MYSTERIOUS NEW LOVER?!

 

[IMAGE]

 

Who is Roy Mustang’s new flavour of the month?

The internet has been exploding the last few days after an intrepid fan managed to snap a few pictures of the infamous love ‘em and leave ‘em playboy and Fuhrer candidate Roy Mustang on a date at The Copper Vine with even more infamous youtube star and political vlogger known as ‘The People’s Alchemist’.

This is, of course, not the first time Roy Mustang has been seen out and about with a pretty piece of arm candy clinging to him, but it definitely is the first time said arm candy has been male. Perhaps he just has a thing for blondes, because there’s no denying that this young man is a bombshell.

Who is the People’s Alchemist, though? As an internet personality, it seems he’s taken care not to give away too many personal details. However! Following a trail of connections, we can now reveal that Roy Mustang’s new beau is actually a student at Central City University, one Edward Elric, of the academically renowned Elric brothers, sons of the famous historian and philosopher Dr Hohenheim Elric.

Born in a sleepy farming village called Risembool, not much is known about Elric’s childhood until he came to Central and became one of the youngest people ever accepted into Central City University, for a dual Bachelor’s of Chemistry and Quantum Physics. Quite the heavy courseload! But it seems he rose to the challenge magnificently, despite his age, and has continued his education the University all the way up to the doctorate level, despite causing no little trouble on campus, up to and including starting a few brawls, with students and staff. Yikes! It seems his short temper is not simply an act for his online persona.

Beauty, brains, and brawn! It seems Mustang has found himself quite the catch.

Mustang and Elric began their dalliance a couple of months ago, after a confrontation over political opinions led to a coffee date in a quaint little café by the name of Bean There Done That, where they apparently continued to debate politics until near to closing time, according to one long-suffering barista. Given that they’ve remained together long enough to have dinner at The Copper Vine only two days ago, this has set a record for Roy Mustang’s Longest Relationship Ever.

Is the clock ticking down the seconds until he gets bored of his new fling, or has Roy Mustang finally met his match in Edward Elric?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA

 

marigold_and_thyme

For those of you that can’t see the gifs, they’re from two different interviews, one from ANN ambushing Elric on Central City University grounds, and the other was from the Central Chronicle interviewing Mustang in some sort of office. They’re arranged side-by-side for comparison.

First gif: A white brown-haired reporter in a plain black suit is saying ‘there’s a lot of concern that Mustang has coerced you into an unhealthy and possibly illegal relationship, given that you’re so much younger-’

Second gif: A pretty blonde woman in a pale pink pencil-skirt suit sitting on a plain blue chair is asking ‘You don’t think the age difference, the power imbalance, between the two of you is a serious matter?’

Third gif: Edward Elric spinning on his heel to face the camera, with a very alarmed-looking blonde girl standing beside him, and starting to yell ‘WHO THE [BEEP] ARE YOU CALLING SO SMALL HE COULD BE MISTAKEN FOR AN UNDERAGE CHILD?!’

Fourth gif: Roy Mustang in an ergonomic office chair behind a desk bearing several stacks of paperwork, elbows on the desk, fingers interlaced in front of his mouth, and the subtitles say ‘Actually, I do think that there is a very serious problem in our current cultural climate of powerful men taking advantage of younger, more innocent people.’

Fifth gif: Edward Elric advancing towards the camera in a very threatening manner while the blonde girl beside him grabs his arm in an attempt to hold him back, yelling ‘I’M TWENTY-[BEEP]ING-THREE YOU A[BEEEEP]! I’M A FULL-[BEEP]ING-GROWN, FULLY LEGAL ADULT!’

Sixth gif: Roy Mustang now spreading his hands to gesture in a vaguely welcoming gesture, saying ‘Absolutely no one in such a position should be exempt from a proper investigation if such a blatant abuse of power is suspected.’

Seventh gif: Edward Elric now so close to the camera that one shoulder is out of frame, still advancing and then drawing back his automail fist as he continues to yell ‘I HAVE A [BEEP]ING DOCTORATE, FOR [BEEP] SAKE, SO STICK THAT UP YOUR [BEEP] AND SWIVEL YOU HOMOPHOBIC PIECE OF SH-’

Eighth gif: Roy Mustang leaning back in his office chair to smile blandly directly at the camera, saying ‘I’m sure that all of my friends and colleagues, and my opposition of course, are willing to allow that scrutiny on their personal lives to ensure that no vulnerable persons are being hurt.’

Ninth gif: Edward Elric nearly falls over backwards as the blonde girl pulls on his braid and then gets him in a headlock to begin dragging him away while he continues to flail. The caption is in two different colours to indicate the different speakers, and the first part says ‘You can’t just attack the press, Edward!’ and the second part says ‘HE CALLED ME SHORT! I’M GONNA KILL THE [BEEEEEP]!’

Tenth gif: Roy Mustang’s smile suddenly begins to look very cold and sharp, and one eyebrow goes up in challenge as he says ‘Because, well, only someone with something to hide would object.’

 

khaleesidaenerys4eva

OMG they’re like fire and ice! mustang so clam and collected but savage and elric just gOING OFF ON ONE READY TO PUNCH A BITCH! i love them so much i hope they get married and mustang gets elected and then he can just do everything his husband tells him and the country will be saved and everything will be perfect eeeeeeeeee

 

hollytheoakking

Don’t you think that the People’s Alchemist’s reaction was a bit over the top? The reporter didn’t actually say anything homophobic. He was only pointing out that there has been a bit of an uproar on the internet about their relationship.

 

kimas_the_alchemist_fan

Really? THAT is what you took away from this?! That dude was CLEARLY being all provocative with that ‘possibly illeeeegal’ ASSFUCKERY! ANN can’t even DO THEIR REASEARCH properly, making insinuations like that when – AS THE PEOPLE’S ALCHEMIST EXPLICITLY SAYS! – he’s TWENTY-THREE (23)! Hell, I’d be pissed if everyone on the net started accusing someone I loved of being a pedophile just cause I HAPPENED to have a case of babyface (HE’S NOT SHORT, GUYS!) going on. Like Mustang doesn’t have a babyface either. It’s one thing to have the idiot-collective we call the internet SPEWING PREJUDICIAL BULLSHIT because oh no, TWO GUYS had a CUTE DATE somewhere NICE, but to have it coming from ANN and the Chronicle? Shiiit, dude, your bias is showing! Maybe get off the back of the guys who did NOTHING WRONG and go harass the assholes who are ACTUALLY likely to be HIDING SOMETHING?!

TL;DR: THAT WAS A PERFECTLY-NORMAL-SIZED RESPONSE FROM A PERFECTLY-NORMAL-SIZED ALCHEMIST!

 

sneksnootboop

Omg he’s like the little chihuahua that wants to fight ALL the other dogs lol

 

calmdownponyboy

Whatever you have to say about Elric, you can’t deny that Mustang was in top form in that interview. So damn smooth, man, just catching the hit and slinging it right back in their faces. Does anyone know if any of his opposition have had anything to say about that interview?

In conclusion, Halcrow is definitely hiding something, and social services or whoever should get on that

Bradley’s hard to tell, because he laughs everything off, so someone should check just in case

And Grand is actually, for once, talking freaking sense

(Armstrong had nothing to say that I’ve seen, because she’s above such petty mudslinging)

 

thecakeisalie_noreally

Petition to have Halcrow investigated for abuses of power! Lol

 

hollytheoakking

You know that petitions don’t actually work, right?

 

thecakeisalie_noreally

We know it’s not actually going to get him investigated, but it IS going to embarrass the fuck out of him, and since that’s the POINT, technically, it IS working, so there XP BLELELELELE

 

kimas_the_alchemist_fan

Rebageling for the PETITION TO EMBARRASS HALCROW!!!

 

flowersoflight

Halcrow and Bradley should be investigated. If petitions don’t work, surely there’s some other way to get the authorities to look into the matter?

 

hollytheoakking

Other politicians slinging mud isn’t really a basis for an official investigation. Unless someone they’ve hurt actually comes forward and takes them to court for it, I doubt anything is going to come of this. If Mustang whips up enough of a mob then Halcrow, at least, might end up resigning due to the pressure, but that’s not the same as him actually being held accountable, it’s basically just bullying him out of office.

 

philosopherofthemidnorthnortheast

I wouldn’t have expected Grand to actually agree with Mustang

 

hollytheoakking

The one good thing that can be said about Grand is that he does actually have a code of honour. He does things by the book, it’s just that the rulebook he’s playing by is very pro-military and anti-socialism. So we probably wouldn’t have had the Lab Five Disaster under Grand, but only because he’d have been a little more responsible about researching new ways to torture and kill entire populations. Not sure that counts as an improvement, really.

He came out looking pretty good this time, though. Not as good as Mustang, of course, because daaamn was that response absolutely savage. I love it! Drag them, Mustang!

Central Chronicle

BREAKING NEWS – HALCROW ACCUSED OF RAPE

 

[IMAGE]

 

In a lawsuit filed Monday morning, party leader Richard Halcrow has been accused of physically assaulting and raping a young woman who volunteered at the Church of Leto, a central point of contention in the civil strife in the region of Liore, during his well publicised visit to aid in arranging a ceasefire four years ago.

The woman in question, Rosé Thomas, currently 21 years old, was not available for comment. We are told that she no longer visits the Church of Leto, and is instead currently studying nursing at the local hospital while her son, notably three years old, attends nursery school.

When asked about the significant delay between the alleged events and the lawsuit being brought, Riza Hawkeye, the attorney responsible for filing the suit, told the Chronicle that “She was scared. Mr Halcrow is a powerful, wealthy man who holds the ear of many more wealthy, powerful men. My client is one woman from the second poorest and third-most war-torn area of Amestris. I don’t blame her for being afraid she wouldn’t have the clout to get justice for what was done to her.”

Which begged the question of why she decided to come forward now, and the answer appears to be that the recent outcry against the controversial relationship between Roy Mustang and Edward Elric, and Mustang’s ensuing comments about his fellow politicians, inspired Thomas to reach out. She first spoke to Elric through his internet persona of ‘The People’s Alchemist’, of whom she is a long-time fan.

“Yeah, she asked me for help,” said Elric. “She didn’t know what do to, how to even begin getting [Halcrow] to face justice for what he did to her, so I put her in touch with the best [expletive] lawyer I know.” That being Riza Hawkeye, whom he met through Mustang, as the two were childhood friends.

Halcrow himself, when questioned upon the possible truth of these allegations, declared them to be “absolute rubbish” and postulated that the charges were fabricated by Mustang as revenge for Halcrow’s concern over the man’s relationship with a much younger man.

The case will be heard in court on the 2 nd of September, but no matter which way the courts rule, the mere fact of these allegations may have irrevocably damaged Halcrow’s bid for the Fuhrership.

@1000eyes There’s no standard of behaviour that Nuri has to meet to ‘prove’ he’s not like Halcrow. It’s already going to be hard enough for him what with how public this whole mess has become. Don’t make it harder for him by constantly comparing him to the guy that raped his mum, okay?

I really hope all this publicity doesn’t come back to bite her later. I’m really glad she got justice, but being a publicly known figure for something like this is going to be difficult, and I’m not sure it was the best idea to drag Nuri into it. He can’t exactly consent to being made a public spectacle, and this is probably going to affect the rest of his life, sometimes it ways that aren’t great.

Really convenient for this girl to just suddenly pop up right now. Really convenient that she got in touch with Mustang’s boyfriend. And was represented by Mustang’s friend. Isn’t it obvious this was staged because Mustang is a petty asshole who wanted to get back at a respectable man for expressing concerns about his obviously inappropriate relationship? This is ridiculous!

Christ, really? You’re one of those ‘the moon landing was fake’ people, aren’t you? Christ.

 

Holly King

You’re reaching a bit there. Aside from the fact that despite being four years out of date, the evidence was still enough to condemn Halcrow, rape accusations are rarely ever false. This culture is so ready to victim blame someone who was raped that honestly there are so many easier ways of getting someone you don’t like in trouble.

 

Official Roy Mustang

If Halcrow is your notion of a respectable man, madam, then I think I’m quite glad you seem to think I’m reprehensible. A more glowing recommendation of my character I could not imagine.

 

No.1 Alchemist Fan

@Official Roy Mustang BOOM! MIC DROP! You know, you’re really not bad for a slimy politician.

 

Official Cat Lover

You say it’s ‘convenient’ like those things couldn’t possibly be connected without some nefarious purpose, but of course they could. Of course Hawkeye agreed to represent someone her friend asked her to help. Of course the People’s Alchemist went to a lawyer he knew. Of course he knew her because he’s dating Mustang. Of course Rosé reached out to someone who seemed well placed to help her. Of course the People’s Alchemist was well placed to help her because of the attacks being levelled at him because of his relationship with Mustang. OF COURSE it all connects. None of that changes the fact that Halcrow attacked and violated a young woman. None of that changes the fact that he brought this on himself, not just by being the sort of person who would rape someone, but because he couldn’t help but try to accuse someone else of the very thing he was guilty of.

Transcript

Interviewer: There’s been a bit of an uproar about your recently revealed military history, hasn’t there?

Mustang: There has.

Interviewer: Were you expecting this reaction from your supporters? Is that why you chose to hide it?

Mustang: I never hid anything, I just refused to brag about it. In all honestly, I was surprised by how quickly people forgot.

Interviewer: People are wondering why, given your history, your policy has nothing to say about the issue of Ishvalan immigrants.

Mustang: People have always accused me of having an ego, and perhaps I do, but I do my best to keep it out of my policies. My goal in standing for Fuhrer is to give the people the best this country has to offer. My personal history and my personal opinions don’t have anything to do with what is best for the people.

Interviewer: So you plan to do nothing about the immigration problem?

Mustang: I didn’t say that at all. If, as you say, there is a problem, then that would be the government’s duty to fix, wouldn’t it? I certainly don’t plan to spend my tenure as Fuhrer napping in my office, much as I would like to.

/End Transcript

I’m getting so tired of this guy dodging the question every time. This is the most he’s ever said about Ishval in any interview ever, and the very next thing he says after that clip ends is to turn the conversation around to better management of local councils.

 

marigold_and_thyme

I don’t know, I think it says a lot that he wouldn’t even play into that lady’s game calling Ishvalan refugees a ‘problem’. He’s never given any sign that he’s anti-Ishvalan, and given that the only other candidate who isn’t an obvious racist is Armstrong, who’s just as much a warmonger as the rest…

 

thecakeisalie_noreally

He’s never given any sign except KILLING ISHVALANS. Christ, the contortions people will pull to excuse genocide as long as whoever’s doing it is pretty.

 

rrrubyrrredrrrose

sorry if I’m changing the subject or something, but… is there a single politician in this country who isn’t military or ex-military? because if there isn’t, that’s just depressing

 

hollytheoakking

Nope. It’s because up until really recently, Amestris was technically a military state. There was a parliament, which the people were supposed to be able to vote for, but they couldn’t actually do anything without the Fuhrer’s say so, and the Fuhrer was originally the title for the head of the army. So, even though we’re moving away from that military dictatorship, there’s still a lot of influence there. People who weren’t military really struggle to get enough clout to even make it onto the stage of politics, never mind making it as a Fuhrer candidate.

 

aqua_vitae

Wait, so then doesn’t that mean they were ALL in Ishval???

 

thecakeisalie_noreally

Bradley was the one who ORDERED Ishval.

Grand was there, I’m pretty sure.

Mustang, yes, as we’ve fucking established.

Not sure about Armstrong, though.

 

mirrormirroronthewall

Armstrong spent her entire military career up in Fort Briggs, so no.

 

thecakeisalie_noreally

Only Valid Fuhrer Candidate Olivier Armstrong

 

hollytheoakking

Except that Armstrong’s stance on the Creta issue is ‘crush them and then they won’t be a problem any more’. That’s an actual quote. And it’s a terrible stance to support if we want to carry on moving away from a military dictatorship.

 

thecakeisalie_noreally

Don’t tell me you’re still going to vote Mustang, even after all of this bullshit?

 

hollytheoakking

‘Still’ implies I was ever going to vote for Mustang.

 

ilovesalamanders

I still agree with the People’s Alchemist. Mustang might not be great, he might not even be a good choice, but he’s still the best of a bunch of shitty options.

 

kimas_the_alchemist_fan

But does he STILL think that?! He couldn’t have KNOWN about all of this before! He would have mentioned it in his video if he had, right?! He would have TOLD US if he’d KNOWN! RIGHT??? AAAAAAA!!! I wish he would SAY SOMETHING about this mess! This radio silence is starting to get scary!

Personal Responsibility by The People’s Alchemist – VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

 

[Edward Elric is sitting in the bend of a dark blue L-shaped couch in jeans and a Central City University hoodie with his hair half pulled up, one bare foot propped on the edge of the couch seat, his arm curled loosely around it. He looks very serious.]

 

You guys have been fucking pestering me for my opinion on this whole Mustang in Ishval mess, and I figure, what the hell, if you want my opinion that fucking badly, you can have it. You’re probably not gonna like it, though. People usually don’t like this one when it’s not hypothetical.

 

[He takes a deep breath. Shifts. Leans forward slightly. Drops his knee from upright to lying across the couch, his foot tucked under his other knee.]

 

Yeah, I knew Roy had been stationed in Ishval. Pretty hard to miss when the second night I spent at his place, he woke us both up with nightmares in the middle of the night. And before anyone has a fucking fit, I’m not saying that for sympathy. It’s a fact. Roy still has nightmares about Ishval.

 

[He runs his hand back through his hair and glares at the camera.]

 

Most of you are probably thinking ‘good, he deserves it’. And you know what? You’re probably fucking right. He probably deserves worse.

 

[Long pause. He looks away, jaw working, looks back at the camera, frowning.]

 

But it’s not about deserving, because no one really deserves what they get. The Ishvalans didn’t deserve to die, and Bradley didn’t deserve to be Fuhrer, and no one deserves the good or the bad that comes their way. Shit, that doesn’t even sound like a fucking word anymore. Sorry. Point is. People do horrible shit. All the time. People are fucking awful. To each other. To themselves. To anything they can get their fucking claws into. We’re shit.

 

[One side of his mouth lifts in a smile. It looks wry.]

 

That’s why we’ve gotta… we’ve gotta dedicate every day to making it better. To doing better.

 

[He sighs again. Folds the other leg up so he’s sitting cross-legged on the couch, hands curled around the front of his shins.]

 

I don’t really want to talk specifics, because that’s Roy’s personal business and unless you’re one of the people who lost someone to the Ishvalan genocide, you don’t have a fucking right to any of it. But I’ll try to get the point across, anyway.

People make mistakes, people do bad shit. Sometimes they do it because they were told to, because they were goaded, because they weren’t thinking right, because they were desperate, because they fucking could. They do it for whatever stupid dumbshit reason, and then it’s done, yeah? It’s happened , and you can’t- you can’t change it. You can’t take it back. It’s done . And some people are so fucking dead inside that they don’t even notice the hole that carves into you. But it does. It takes something from you that you’re never going to get back. Innocence, maybe.

 

[He snorts and shakes his head.]

 

And it doesn’t fucking matter if you were told to, if you were ordered to, if your parents told you that’s just the way it had to be. You did wrong . And if you still have a fragment of your soul left, if you haven’t sold it all to the devil, of course that shit’s going to hurt. That’s just… the basic law of the universe. Pain is just the warning that something’s wrong, and sometimes, you get that warning because you made it wrong. And you have to deal with that, you have to- to own that. You have to look at the shitty ass mess you made and go ‘I did that. I am responsible for that.’

Some people don’t. I know that. And that’s what shit like prison is supposed to be for. People won’t recognise that they did wrong? Then there’s nothing fucking stopping them from doing it again, is there? So we stop them. We stop them from making more mistakes in the world, because that’s what we do . As people, muddling about together on this stupid fucking planet. We try, every goddamned fucking day, to make it a little bit better.

And that’s hard. It really is, because the first thing you do, the first fucking thing, when you’re looking at a mess, is think ‘how do I fix this?’ And the shitty thing is; you can’t. You can’t change the past. You can’t make the mistake un-happen. You can’t un-break the world. You can’t bring people back from the dead.

 

[He leans forwards, elbows on his knees.]

 

You can say you’re sorry ‘til you’re blue in the face, but it doesn’t mean shit unless you can back it up. Sorry is just a fucking word unless you put yourself out there, into a world that you helped break, and try to do right in it. Sorry has to mean that you’ve learned from your fuck up, that you know how to not break the things you touch, and the only way to prove that is to keep fucking trying.

You have to pick yourself up, and keep moving forward. One step at a goddamned time. Into a future that we’re building together, out of the scraps left behind by our mistakes.

 

[He lowers his head, looking down. His automail hand curls into a fist. Then he looks up, smiling faintly.]

 

And that’s what I believe in. People. Fucking up and trying to make things better. Walking forwards .

 

[He straightens, pauses, shrugs, rests his hands on his knees. His tone changes from entirely solemn and serious to something a bit lighter.]

 

Obviously, I can’t speak for my finacé, and like he said, personal opinion doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with a political platform, but, you know, given a choice between the guy who dropped racial slurs on national television – and yes I’m fucking talking about Bradley – and the guy who looked like he’d bitten into a lemon when said racial slurs were used in his presence?

 

[He grins fiercely.]

 

I know exactly which horse I’m betting on.

This is a really interesting perspective, but there’s a flaw in your argument here. You say that sorry doesn’t count if you don’t act on it, but has Mustang acted on it? So far as I can tell, he’s basically just washed his hands of Ishval and called it a day. That doesn’t look much like trying to make things right to me.

xcept he resigned from the military, like, right after n went right into politics w a socialist stance. that is just what the ppl’s alchemist said here about making shit better for everyone. dunno if u noticed this but everyone includes ishvalans. that looks like acting on it to me.

The People’s Alchemist is right, though. In comparison to the others, he really is the best choice. Whether he’s doing ENOUGH or not isn’t really the question being asked here, though, is it?

If your options are a bunch of people who are on the other end of the spectrum to your ideals and one man who’s hovering near the middle, doesn’t it make sense to support the one in the middle, since he’s the closest to your ideals? Changing the world can’t be done if you refuse to engage with anything less than perfect. You just have to keep nudging things a bit closer to what you want.
Oh, dear, now I’m starting to sound like him. Someone save meee!

you are totally right and you should say it

Idk, I mean you have a point but… no one’s perfect, you know? And I think he is trying.
That’s the important part, right? That’s what the People’s Alchemist was saying.

Why does this seem kind of personal? Like, this video is way more serious and toned down than your usual, and weirdly self-deprecating, so it just seems like maybe there’s more to this than just the whole Mustang in Ishval thing. Like, I’m pretty sure you’re too young to have been in Ishval too, lol, but…

Okay, I know I doubted, but… Let me just say that after watching this video, I am fully prepared to vote Mustang in the election, despite the whole shitstorm about Ishval. I know he hasn’t said anything personally about, you know, remorse for what he did or actively speaking up for the Ishvalans, but, well, he’s MARRYING THIS GUY. And I really don’t think the People’s Alchemist would marry anyone who was okay with having been part of a genocide. I just don’t.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

THEY’RE GETTING MARRIED?!

THIS IS LIKE A DREAM COME TRUE!!!

 

hollytheoakking

I don’t think you can attribute an opinion to Mustang like it’s a virtue when he’s never actually acted on it. Maybe he does regret what he did, but what is he actually doing to show that? Nothing. He’s very, very conspicuously not commented on Ishvalan issues. If he really did feel like he needs to right his wrongs, then he should be advocating for Ishvalan rights, not ignoring them.

 

sneksnootboop

Maybe he feels like he doesn’t have the right to speak on their issues?

 

thecakeisalie_noreally

This post is like… three different arguments dressed up in a trenchcoat, lol. And I disagree with all of you. Because that is a TERRIBLE excuse and if it’s true Mustang shouldn’t be running for Fuhrer in the first place. But not commenting on Ishvalan issues doesn’t necessarily show indifference, just tactical planning. Do you really think Mustang could get voted in as Fuhrer if he was running about adovcating for Ishvalan rights? Pfft. He’d be more of a joke than Halcrow was. Buuut that’s exactly why I’m still not voting for him. He’s hiding something until he gets to be Fuhrer, which means there’s no reason his entire political stance isn’t a lie, and I don’t like it. At least Armstrong is fucking straightforward about what she’s fucking doing.

 

kimas_the_alchemist_fan

Exceeept Armstrong’s a liar just like all the rest? The People’s Alchemist did a video on it!

lucifermorgenstern666

I think you’re right that it would be ideal if he would take a stand on Ishvalan issues, but also that it wouldn’t get him very far. Most Amestrians don’t really think about what was done to the Ishvalans, so they just follow the government line on immigration being a problem without thinking about what’s actually going on. I know I was like that before I found the People’s Alchemist channel, because it’s really hard to question that sort of stuff when it’s what everyone’s saying.

And, I mean, because of that, I think that you shouldn’t really just dismiss Mustang as a liar or whatever out of hand? If he’s hedging on a lot of issues, it’s probably because he wants to get to where he can actually make a difference before he starts alienating voters. I don’t know, it seems reasonable to me.

 

hollytheoakking

It’s dishonest, that’s the problem. If he were actually doing things properly, he would present his policy, and let the people vote on which policy they want implemented. Instead, he’s trying too hard to win everyone’s votes, but all that means is he’s not actually committing to anything and so we don’t actually know what we’re voting for.

 

calmdownponyboy

But we’ve already established that all politicians are liars. Why does the fact that his lie isn’t actually a lie, it’s just a refusal to commit to a lie, make it worse? imo it ought to make it better.

 

sugarcoatedfecalmatter

besides it’s not like the ishvalan thing is the only issue here. it might be kinda important especially if you’re ishvalan obviously but there’s a lot of other things to consider when voting. like the fact that he wants to reduce funding to biological weapons research and put it into better healthcare for everyone instead. or the fact that he wants to decriminalise some of the victimless crimes. or that he wants to make the government more transparent so it can be held accountable to the people. these are all really important issues that he has taken a stand on and just because he hasn’t taken the stand you want him to on one particular thing doesn’t make those points any less valuable. I know ishval is an important issue but it’s not the only issue, okay? so stop whining about how he’s too vague or whatever and look at what he has actually taken a proper stand on and ask yourself ‘would I trust the sort of person who would make these particular changes to make other changes more than I trust any of the other assholes running for fuhrer?’ and if the answer is yes (which it fucking should be if you have even a fragment of a soul left) then ffs stop dithering about how problematic he is and fucking vote mustang.

 

daughterofthedesert

Given that Ishvalans don’t actually have the right to vote anymore, that was kind of a stupid thing to say. But if you want my input, as an Ishvalan (bearing in mind that we’re not a fucking hivemind and my word isn’t gospel) then, yeah, if I could vote, the first thing I’d look at is where they stand on me and my people. Obviously. And obviously, if you vote for Bradley, you’re supporting genocide and you’re a genuinely terrible person.

The rest of them are all at least marginally better. Grand wants to dump us back in the wasteland he and people like him made of our homeland and leave us to it. Which is marginally better than an extermination order, but not by fucking much. If you vote for Grand, you’re an asshole with no compassion. Armstrong doesn’t care if we’re already here, we count as Amestrians to her then, which is a BIG step up, but she also prioritises the military that was responsible for the genocide, and wants to close the borders and smash anyone outside them that causes trouble, which means the family I left behind to come here would be on her ‘people to smash’ list, and I’m not fucking okay with that. And then there’s Mustang. Now, I’m too young to actually remember any of the genocide, but you know what I do remember? I remember the burns that disfigured my mother’s face that were from a new type of explosive that Mustang invented.

Did you know that the type of explosive he invented technically counts as a biochemical weapon? Because they’re actually an airborne gas with just a spark mechanism to make it explode. So the fact that he’s said he’s going to reduce funding for that is a point in his favour for me, but it’s still not great. He hasn’t said anything on the topic of Ishvalans, and he hasn’t really committed to anything about immigration, either. But he has said that he wants to move the influence of power back towards the people, which means away from the military. He has said he wants to provide healthcare for everyone, which includes my people. He’s implied that he thinks prisoners should have the vote, which means he probably thinks free Ishvalans should, too. And he wants to make life easier for the poor, which includes my people.

So if I could vote, which I can’t, I would vote Mustang. I hate him and I really want him to suffer for what he did to us, but if he’s actually going to do half of what he’s said he will, that’s a good start towards making up for what he’s done, and I’m willing to give him the chance to try. It’s not like we have any better options. I can’t speak for my brothers and sisters out there, but that’s what I think.

 

milestogo

I’d vote Armstrong, if I could. She wasn’t party to wiping us out, and she treats us like everyone else. Mustang’s unreliable. With Armstrong, you know exactly where you stand, and it’s no lower than anyone else.

I’ll admit, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the things Mustang has been doing. Some of them are a bit radical, but I think they’re mostly good things, so as long as general public outrage from the masses doesn’t do too much damage, I’m actually feeling kind of hopeful for the future. It’s rather novel!
