Scar | Fullmetal Alchemist

Asami Sato | Legend of Korra

Gee I wonder what Scar thinks of Al...

[envy_the_sinners]

WOW HEY LITTLE ALCHEMIST KID let's just pretend he didn't try to kill you that one time because he... kind of feels like a very awful person about all of that. IT WAS A BAD TIME, OKAY?

Scar has projected hardcore on both Elrics since he met them, but those thoughts and feelings have greatly evolved overtime. Rather than being based around feeding his delusional tendencies, he sees Al as someone who deserves to be safe and happy. He doesn't actively seek him out, and he does try to keep his distance from Al because he realizes that what's between them is... not normal at all, and could easily be misunderstood. Al has a life that mostly doesn't involve him, and he's fine with that. He's glad that he can be happy in Pokéworld and he's happy to talk to him when he calls.

It's really difficult to find a word that accurately describes their relationship. It's too paternal to be just a sibling kind of thing, but too brotherly to be a paternal kind of thing. They're just... Scar and Al. They kind of defy categorization. He looks out for him, and would give him advice, and would kill several thousand soldiers for him, but then you've got the days where Al just needs to smack him over the head with the big ol' clue bat.

so, a wild Korra appeared... quite literally! Asami's thoughts on Korra, go go?

[paishodown]

KORRA has become Asami's best friend. Hands down. Team Avatar is basically the only social life Asami has at this point, and while Bo's great and Mako is... Mako, she feels the most at ease when she's around Korra. As far as the current state of things ingame are concerned, Asami's obviously been having a bit of a moral dilemma in that she isn't sure how much she should be telling Korra. She doesn't want to keep things from her, but she also doesn't want her to dread the day that she has to go back home. She's bound and determined to just let them enjoy this little break like it's a temporary vacation. She worries about her mental well-being, but doesn't let it get in the way of their day to day friendship, and it isn't something she's about to bring up uninvited.

Asami can waver between being a bit clingy and backing off to give Korra room to breathe. She is aware that she does this, by now, and why, and she doesn't want to make Korra uncomfortable. But having a bit of home with her is a huge comfort, especially when it's a bit of home that she knows isn't going to up and leave her. She's lost most of the people she's ever been emotionally attached to in some way, and this makes her deeply value her close friendship with Korra. She's someone she can hang loose with, which means so much after a lifetime of stuffy public appearances and business meetings.

Scar's thoughts on Envy, and also Asami's?

[envy_the_sinners]

Scar thinks Envy's an asshole. That's... pretty much the summation of everything you need to know.

BUUUUUT...

Envy has this unique connection with Scar in that he is a very important figure to... basically the two most important people in Scar's life. Don't tell Lust he said that. He hates him purely on principle that he killed an Elric in cold blood (sshhh, it's totally not like HE tried to do that too) which is just... 9001 levels of not okay. He's on Al's side in this, he will always be on Al's side of this, even if he has to wash his hands completely of the homunculi for it. He thinks the bitty has every right to be viscerally angry for what Envy did because he's been there, done that, knows how it feels.

Ding ding, do you smell that delicious projecting??

As far as Lust is concerned, Scar definitely takes issue with how close she is to Envy. Scar's relationship with her is... obviously screwed up and weird, but before everything else, putting all weird romantic problems aside... she was kind of supposed to be his sister. This is getting into splitting the theoretical CR hairs, but that is a base source of grrr for Scar. Envy's kind of taken the place of what Scar's family was supposed to be to Lust before... she was Lust. Envy, and the other sins for that matter, are like interlopers. This wouldn't be so bad, in Scar's eyes, if he hadn't put two and two together that Envy sat back and watched, maybe even helped while their master molded her into what she is now and let her be used the way she was. Scar doesn't care how direct or indirect his involvement with that was, he's laying blame on him for it. Because of this, it disgusts him even further that they claim to be sibling figures to one another. If Envy's going to play at being the older brother, he'd better start actually doing it. Scar's got very strict rules on what a big brother is, Envy, and you have broken pretty much all of them.

Beyond personal entanglements, he basically just thinks Envy is a juvenile ass and oh wow can you imagine how great it would have been if they had met four years ago.

Asami also finds Envy to be a bit of an ass, though not nearly on Scar's level. As... one would assume. Talking to him is a great stress reliever, though, because she can snark at him and not even feel remotely badly about it because he'll do it right back and be far more petty about it.

That's... all I've got. |D

Scar and Asami on Cynthia and Asami on Kayneth, because why not.

[envy_the_sinners]

Scar - Cynthia
Bless her, he thinks her head is filled with rocks, but he does genuinely care for her. Her buying him a cupcake on his birthday really stuck with him, since it was the first birthday gift he got from anyone in like... fourteen years. Give or take. He doesn't deserve a friend like her, even if she thinks that Beedrill and Skuntank will leap ferociously from the bushes if she doesn't forward this to ten people. WITH ALL OF THIS she also gets Scar's Bonus Meatshield Plan, good for one (or multiple) instances of being way overprotective of her if he feels he needs be. Especially since... Well... She seems like the type who could easily get wrapped up in ugly situations.

Asami - Cynthia
Asami... also doesn't think Cynthia is the brightest bulb in the fancy, expensive chandelier, and her relationship with her is pretty comparable to her relationship with Bolin. She enjoys talking to her... usually. But sometimes Cynthia will say something juuuust cringe-worthy enough that Asami won't be able to help but poke in an hope to gently steer her in the right direction. She values her as a friend, but sometimes it's impossible to contain the facepalms.

Asami - Kayneth
FINALLY, SOMEONE WITH A LITTLE CLASS. As great as the people in Route are, they aren't... really Asami's people. Not most of them, anyway. And she likes that she can talk to Kayneth about money and... economic stuff because she is more than a little weirded out by how this whole world manages to remain functioning. She wants to speak to Kayneth more in the future, and the only reason she really hasn't is that I need to step up my activity game. |D

[enjoymyatelier]

...the appropriate response to Cynthia, tbh

AND I'LL KEEP AN EYE OUT TOO...!

[foolishwren]

She doesn't have a ton of CR with either of them yet but WHY NOT, Scar and Asami on Heather?

[paishodown]

Scar is confused by Heather. Mostly because she's like Lust's age and kind of acts more like a disgruntled teenager. Everyone in Alchemy Land acts at least ten years older than their actual age, and Scar kind of has this "grumble grumble kids these days opinion of Heather. BUUUUT she has been very helpful with information in the past, and he's appreciative of that. Even if she can be a little shit.

It's probably a very good thing that he has yet to figure out that she's Envy's friend.

Asami thinks that wow, Heather should absolutely never own a business if she thinks that battling and exploiting excitable children is a solid way of making money k thx bye. She is also a touch miffed that she made fun of Whitney, because Asami knows what it's like to cry ugly tears over your job. Even if she's... more discrete about it. ALL IN ALL... kind of a shaky impression. Heather strikes Asami has being rather immature, but in fairness to Heather, it's an easy conclusion to make when she was running a freaking company at 19.

[foolishwren]

WHY IS EVERYBODY FROM ALCHEMY LAND SO MENTALLY ELDERLY JEEZ
but yes neither of these opinions surprise me haha

[envy_the_sinners]

BECAUSE SUFFERING AND DEATH, GOSH.

[faintwaves]

MR. SCAR, WHAT ABOUT THAT WEIRD GIRL THAT MOTHERHENS YOU

[envy_the_sinners]

AWW MAKA THE ONLY THING SCAR THINKS IS WEIRD ABOUT YOU IS THAT YOU PUT UP WITH HIS GRUMPY SELF and that your voice kind of sounds a lot like Lust's can you please explain that

But seriously random acts of kindness really stick out to Scar, and yes, saving his dumb concussed ass from the hurricane still counts as a 'random act of kindness.' He has a... slightly overstated protectiveness for nice young people at this point, so he definitely kind of passively keeps an eye out for Maka hopefully without... being creepy about it. He is very aware that he is giant and kind of scary even if she doesn't seem to think so for whatever reason. He enjoys their conversations, and he finds her to be a very mature and well adjusted young woman.

He would... very much like to know what the hell she puts up with Kirikou. He's really dumb.

On a scale of 1 to 10 how mad does Greed make him

[envy_the_sinners]

On a scale of Alphonse to Kimbley, Greed is a very bad double ingrown toenail.

Scar doesn't really have any legitimate personal reasons to dislike Greed. Sometimes people just don't get along, and... this is one of those cases, for Scar. Greed is everything Scar isn't. Greed is all about living in the moment and indulging, while Scar sees his behavior as reckless and idiotic. He would just pass him off for Some Other Moron if Lust weren't hanging around him and constantly babbling to Scar about how inspiring Greed's lifestyle supposedly is. That drives him mildly ape-shit. A lot of it is just a major culture gap; Scar was raised in a modest, conservative, and quiet environment, and Greed is... Greed.

Also your jacket and sunglasses are way stupider than his.

JUST FOR THE RECORD.
