Well it being black history month is reminding me how I wanted to doodle something like this down for a while. Since it’s been a lil detail I always take notice of in drawings. These are very simple depictions but I hope it’s enough to give the general idea! Feel free to reblog

Was waiting for class to start the other day and had the random inspiration to draw these based on FMA AUs I made a while back
I have em in order of time they were made. The doodles are a bit rushed.
Just some bare bones (more like crumbs) there's a lot of details obviously not included I just thought they'd be fun to make. I haven't decided if I wanna elaborate on some of my AUs here yet (my friends have dealt with my rambles about them though)
Under the cut I'll include some silly doodles based on these AUs
Sidenote: psychic Brothers Au is the only one of these three that doesn't have terribly heavy themes and is much more chill
Spirit medium Au things (I've already shown more doodles from this au in that other post of mine lol)
Undead Ed Au (including the more comical ones bc most drawings I have for this au are on the bloody side of things)
Psychic Brothers Au (don't actually have many doodles for this au surprisingly)

I love Spirit Hunter: Death Mark's approach to the amnesia trope and the question of "If you can't remember who you were, are you even the same person?"
A lot of narratives play around with the weight of that, only to turn around and say "Of course you're the same, who else would you be?" The character gets their memories back and they're suddenly exactly as they were before, maybe with a life lesson along the way.
But Death Mark doesn't. Without all the knowledge and experiences of Masamune Kujou, Yashiki is fundamentally a kinder and less apathetic person, without any sort of prompting. Even when confronting dangerous spirits out to kill him, he takes the time to learn their stories and show them some small form of kindness. He listens to the recording of who he used to be, and he can't reconcile the callousness that Masamune had towards the deaths caused by his mistake with the way he feels about them, to the point where he doesn't even go back to using the identity that he's worked so hard to remember. Even when the game gives you the option to forgive Masamune, the options are still "It had to be done" and "I can't forgive him" because Kazuo Yashiki and Masamune Kujou are not the same.
And I think that's a way more interesting take than the protagonist just reverting back into the same person they were despite all the experiences we saw them go through.

This was in my drafts. I kept drawing this poor man. I've since been drawing a couple other fucked up little guys but like... Why not post these.
These particular ones are class doodles
