I felt terrible (putting it mildly) because I had a really severe episode of my delusion coming back (so much so that I was googling if you should break up with your partner cause you’re in love with your friend) and it brought back all the crushing guilt and grief like crazy. But I walked down to the ravine and waded in the river and screamed along to Lover, You Should’ve Come Over and then I felt better

So. As something of a connoisseur of depictions of the 7 Deadly Sins in media, I was just mulling over FMAB and thought, “I don’t know if anyone as crossed this over with OM before, but that would actually be kinda fire though.”
Like, imagine each of the brothers with the destructive powers of their respective Homunculi.
~♡♡♡~
Lucifer coming off as the most normal at first, until MC catches how his shadow bends and curves to avoid harsh light. They swear they sometimes hear him chuckling in the dark corners of the House, but they never actually find him anything there when they check. Red eyes reveal themselves in unlit rooms and follow them through the halls, all the while they keep wondering how he always seems to know where they are whenever he's away…
Mammon hardening his skin to be tougher than diamond, then using it to reinforce his claws and smoothly cut a perfect circle into glass display case. Him letting himself get punched when things don’t matter, but instantly hardening his cheek to break the assailant's hand whenever he starts getting serious. Or literally using his body to protect MC from harm as their first man and loyal shield.
Leviathan having a MASSIVE aquatic beast form that he shoves into a normal sized body, making him feel even more distant to others. Using transformations to regularly make himself look like his favorite anime characters/idols since he can’t stand the thought of looking at his true form. Yet, he still has that conservation of mass going, so he can simultaneously look like a 12 year-old girl and kick a car down the street like a soccerball.
Satan using his gifted sight to become an absolute force of nature. Not just a mere brute, but a sophisticated and effective killing machine with the wit and reflexes to mow down entire armies before breaking a sweat. Never blinded by fury, but harnessing his rage behind every inescapable strike. Him silently vowing that any threat to MC or his family will barely get to finish a thought before he's cut them down with precision and grace.
Asmodeus mostly using his extending nails for glorious manicures, but not being afraid to pierce the heart or lungs of anyone he doesn’t much like. He hears an incubus talking shit from a few tables down and stabs a hole through the jerk's skull while never looking away from his milkshake. His fights with Mammon getting 1000 times more destructive as his razor sharp claws bounce off his brother's skin and dig into the walls and furniture. The only thing he hates about them are how long it takes to scrub the blood off his nails afterwards.
*silently contemplates the possibility of Beel ripping himself in half to reveal a nightmarish second “stomach” capable of sucking anything into a blood-filled pocket dimension of which there is no light, hope, or escape* … Okay, moving on.
And of course, for those unaware FMAB Sloth could run at like the speed of sound which was threatening because he was also a behemoth. However, Belphie probably weights 125 pounds when wet, so… I admittedly get a giggle at the idea of him giving Lucifer a speed-of-light drop kick from across the House. That is probably all he would use it for, too. Him just getting those horns out and going into ramming speed… What a menace
Bonus: Wonder what kind of alchemist Solomon would be?

rereading vnc volume 8 and thinking about
well
The scene right after where Noé’s like “I’m glad you’re the person you are now” always lives rent free in my brain and soul but rereading this just hshdjdjdjdj
You’re telling me noé specifically has a flashback to when vanitas SPECIFICALLY says the thought of anyone liking him romantically disgusts him and immediately says “well I still don’t like you or anything” WITH A SMILE ON HIS FACE and an even softer smile on the next page
and I’m not supposed to go insane
like
come on
vanitas’ face after noé’s small pep talk is interesting too 😭 we all know how when he asked roland and Olivier of all people for love advice how he panicked and ran away with Roland’s very Direct Self Love Approach
Noé basically said the same thing roland did about how his past doesn’t have to control his future but vanitas actually looks like he’s listening in this panel
And sure, maybe you could argue that noé only added the “I still don’t like you or anything” just to get him to see that someone who finds him “unlikeable” is grateful for who he has become
But the fact noé still addressed vanitas’ “likability” while thinking about something he said clearly in a romantic concept just makes me go hmmmmmmm
that’s all it’s almost 1 am bye
