THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT, I THINK ALMOST EVERY TRANS PERSON CAN RELATE TO ALPHONSE ELRIC. WE KNOW WE’RE NOT IN OUR ACTUAL BODIES, SOME PEOPLE DON’T TREAT US LIKE HUMANS, WE ARE VERY UNCOMFORTABLE IN OUR BODIES, AND WHILE SOME OF US ARE GRATEFUL FOR AT LEAST BEING ALIVE, WE STILL WANT OUR TRUE BODIES. THIS MAKES ME WONDER IF ALPHONSE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SYMBOLISM FOR TRANS PEOPLE OR SOMETHING, BUT I’M PROBABLY JUST CRAZY
