For those who read Chapter 70...OMFG. Pride is... ... ... .... ....Selim Bradley. OH Arakawa how we <3 you! She's a genius really. The chapter itself was incredible! And the introduction of Selim, with Lt. Hawkeye, couldn't be better. I was spazzing! What are your feelings?  |

Yes, Chapter 70 was awesome Everyone at the Royai forums was spazzing so much about it, and the ideas about Selim have just started dying down. One that was mentioned was about whether Pride is Selim, or whether Pride just possessed him. Because the eye things that appear in his shadow are identical to the ones showing in the mine near Briggs, so how can he be in two places at once? Of course the times are skewed by a week or so (in the 520 Cen Promise chapter, Roy picked up the same woman he was in the car with when it came back to him in chapter 69. They could have met again, or that could be when they left off. It's a sort of "And while Fullmetal was doing that, this is what's happened to the military" thing.), so it's possible that Riza seeing that is a bit before the shadows appear in the mine, but there's also the possibility that Pride possesses him from time to time, and maybe Selim doesn't know when he's been possessed. Like, he wakes up from being asleep for a while or something. |

I think Pride has the ability to 'shadow-prowl' anywhere in Amestris if he can reach Briggs from Central. And I have to say, I squealed. I was thinking: "Oh no! Riza! WHat will happen to her?" Then straight afterwards: "Oh no! Roy! Will he find out? How will he take it if something happens to Riza??"
Arakawa really is a genius. Now I have no idea whatsoever to expect in the next chapter...

As to what happens to Roy and Riza, it's simple: Roy was wondering what to do now with all of the flowers. So he'll take them to Riza's apartment (awww) and notice that she's not there. When he sees she's not there, he'll come and save the day . . . As to how he knows where she is, or how he saves the day, I'm not sure, but it'll be the best, most Royai chapter of Fullmetal Alchemist Flame Alchemist ever  |

I know ;_; Sad, really. But we can keep it shounen if someone dies Then it isn't all sappy. no offence to Winry, but I nominate her! (It's either her or Edward, and I get the feeling that if I say Edward, I'll be killed  ) |

I personally was really, really, shocked about Selim. I agree that he can travel through the shadows and that's how he was able to travel from the Briggs back to the Bradley house so quickly. I am wondering when/how others will find out about Selim - and about who already knows. I'm thinking it's just Riza, Father, maybe Wrath and Mrs. Bradley, and possibly Envy. Though I'm not certain. Still, the fact that Riza knows now makes me worried about her... I'm anxious for chapter 72 to come out!
Also, do you guys have any theories about why Selim/Pride is obsessed with Ed? Is it just a front? Does he genuinely admire him? Or maybe he's interested in him because he knows that he's a possible human sacrifice candidate?

The incident with Selim was creepy. At least, Roy found out about it in the later parts. But still, it's creepy. Always being watched because of the shadows.
Some people at fanfiction had a field-day with the manga chapter. And Roy's flowers too!
