[image description: the original post is a series of screencaps from Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood where Riza works out who Pride is.
1. Riza, intensely focused: that boy is—
Pride, off screen: you figured it out?
2. Riza’s eyes widen in shock.
3. Riza stands still. In a corner behind her, Pride’s red eyes are seen.
4 and 5. Pride, only his feet visible on screen: I don’t know what I’m going to do with my stepmother. She loves to talk.
6. The screen has panned up to show Pride’s face.
Riza, off screen: Selim Bradley…
7. Riza: just who exactly are you?
8. Pride, as Selim but with a black hand of his shadow form across his face: my name is Pride, the first homunculus.
9. The scene pans out to show Selim smiling while Pride’s shadow form, of large eyes and grins, take over the darkness behind him.
The reblog has screenshots of posts the original poster, ‘Buckets’, before they knew who Pride was.
10. Ask: I am 2000% sure that if someone was to actually tell you who Pride was, you’d think it was a fake spoiler.
Buckets: that is super concerning oh my gosh
11. Ask: I want to see you find out who Pride is!
Buckets: man the Pride hype is real! I’m excited to find out too!
Tag reads: and I’m sure y’all are excited to see my reaction!
Ask: oh God, I can’t wait until Pride makes an appearance! I think it’s pretty soon (wink emoticon) Everyone whose seen F M A B knows what I’m taking about.
Buckets: I keep hearing about Pride ever since I first heard them speak and now I’m both really excited and full of fear.
Tag reads: Who is Pride? Why are y’all so obsessed with them?
12. Ask: the upsetting thing about the whole ‘I was gritting my teeth because this bitch of a kid was loud’ scene with Wrath made me sad though because he has his own kid and appears to be a loving father towards him. It’s kinda sad when you think, oh god, what happens when Selim finds out his dad is a homunculus. I mean he wants to work under his father as a state alchemist and this kid is like nine years old so he has no clue what’s going on.
Bucket: yeah, I’m not looking forward to that at all (the all being dragged out).
Tag: that essay scene ripped out my heart and beat me with it.
Ask: your live blogging of F M A B I’d amazing and you’re adorable! I’m cackling through the whole thing! Random, but please share your thoughts and feelings on Selim and Mrs Bradley?
Bucket: ah thank you! I am…sad, because they seem so nice and unaware of who Bradley actually is? Like, ugh, I’m gonna die when they finally find out, the dramatic irony of the scene where Selim reads out the essay on Bradley was like a punch to the gut.
13. Tags read: Poor Selim. I’m worried about how he’ll react. And his fate. (Inserts sad emoticon).
