So many people enter the FMA fandom with this fanbrat mentality of "Omg Edo is so hawt!!111" and "lol Envy palmtree!11" and they don't realize that um... more is going on in the series than that.

I must just be incredibly fortunate that the majority of people I discuss FMA with are intelligent fans who are more interested in psycho-analyzing their favorite characters and exploring the dynamics of said characters relationships with others than fangirling in the manner you described.

Let me start off by claiming responsibility for the secret posted here and clarify two things.

1. The intent behind this secret was to inform you that there are Envy fans out there who are eager to discuss all of Envy's conflicting emotions and the complexities of his personality with as much depth and care as you have expressed a desire to do. Specifically, the individual I mentioned in the secret above. That was the message I wanted to get across.

2. My dislike of those who complain about their fandoms on FS (as well as in general), and state that they actively avoid fandom because their tastes are not catered to is genuine, but the harshness with which I addressed the issue is not. Truthfully, I would have preferred to have simply left you a comment pointing you in the direction of hieronymousb, but I considered it unlikely you would see my reply to your post in much the same way you were concerned I would not see the comment you left here.

So! I needed a "secret" as an excuse to post this in hopes of getting your attention, and it's been my experience that the best way to get a response out of someone is to provoke them. It's a vicious and tasteless tactic which shows little to no regard for your feelings. For that, I apologize.
