Jess and Hobie: their defining strengths + their weaknesses

I had a thought about Hobie while I was writing, have been thinking about Jess for a while and then this post about Miguel came out and it made me kind of want to yap. I’ll only talk about Hobie and Jessica here because I’m biased + Peter & Gwen have been talked about a lot + I linked a post about Miguel + Miles & Pav have simpler, more obvious flaws that basically come down to youthful naivety.

I also find it really interesting that their flaws are basically opposites, Hobie’s comes from “inconsistency” whilst Jessica’s comes from stubbornness. And again, both these flaws come from their greatest strengths.

TL;dr

Jess’ defining strength is her resolve when it comes to fighting for what’s right and tussling with destiny but it causes her to have a one-track mind, even if it comes to dedicating herself to something wrong (from being misguided).

Hobie’s defining strength is his optimism (e.g. anarcho-communism) but the extreme difficulty of pursuing those ideals and the struggle against systems can bring that optimism to a breaking point, causing him to be inconsistent or, more directly, to give up.

I would immediately ask him the stupidest questions. “Did you have toilets back then?” “Do you know what an oven is?” “Things must’ve been great before guns were invented, huh?”

Fullmetal alchemist is so funny to me bc this fucking kid who dresses like the worst emo 2008 hot topic cringecore is literally the smartest person in the entire country. He MET GOD yet exudes annoying atheist “my katana can cut through the Bible” energy. Mustang (his fucking boss) is very plainly is covering for the fact that he committed an unforgivable crime and yet he hates mustang so much it’s on fucking sight. The only time he talks to his crush is when he gets his ass kicked so bad he has to trudge home with his tail between his legs all “winry my arm no workee you can’t ask me why”

Edward Elric is the teenage boy of all time

the thing about “meaningless gore” is that even when it’s apparently not intellectual enough for so many people, it forces the viewer to confront the fact that they are just meat, they are mortal, they can and will eventually die, and pain is part of the human experience that unfortunately none of us will escape experiencing at one point or another. life is both horrifyingly fragile and surprisingly resilient which makes existing in a body a fraught experience regardless of whether we want to acknowledge that or not. “to watch a horror movie is to know that something bad is going to happen. to have a body is really the same thing.” anyway that in and of itself is plenty to grapple with and if a film decides to only deal with that, i don’t think it’s less valuable than any other theme a film might address 

also the blood is fun <3
