Hi! As someone who loved all those recent headcannons covering fma’s cast and the ones about the chimeras - Heinkel and Darius specifically - I wonder if you had any more you’d thought up about those two? I don’t blame you if it’s not a ton, but curious!
HI HELLO HI YOU WILL REGRET ASKING ME ABT THIS EHEHE ☺️
ok I've made a post about this one before but:
- Darius and Heinkel are actually chill with Greed. He's a little strange but he's easy to understand and he's oddly... chummy with them right off the bat. The one thing they don't really get about him is his fascination with Ling Yao, who is deceptively unsettling and makes their fur stand on end. That kid never says what he means and 80% of his expressions are carefully curated lies -- TERRIFYING.
for some miscellaneous things:
- I think Heinkel's life before and during his military service was incredibly structured and stifling. Both he and Darius don't talk about wanting to return to their families like Zampano and Jerso, so I assume they were either not close, dead, or had a Really Really bad relationship with them. For Heinkel I think it's the first and for Darius I think it's the last. Darius is one of the only characters in fullmetal that's implied to be gay and I doubt his Amestrian parents would be cool with that. Him fucking off to Central and enlisting makes sense to me.
- Because of Ed, they're able to start fresh and as a result they'd pick up random hobbies during the camping trip. Heinkel starts carving and Darius gets into charcoal drawing.
- These guys are the pinnacle of boring middle aged yaoi to me. They join a circus and people think that means their lives are chock full of wacky shenanigans-- but no. They are married all but legally and days not working are spent doing the most mundane activities ever. Like sitting together in the living room and listening to the radio for five uninterrupted hours kinda shit. (My reason for this is I think it is Funny for the chimera men who can shapeshift to be two of the most normal people in the series.)
- I think Darius is good with kids and Heinkel is Not. Darius is the fun uncle that gives piggyback rides and throws them into pools and shit. Heinkel is the stiff adult at the family function that struggles not to explain the concept of death to your five year old. So that being said, I don't think they'd have kids of their own. (Ed, who became a father literally 2 seconds ago with the birth of his son, does not understand this choice.)
