I am so glad I am done with this picture wow

This was the ONE and ONLY TIME Riza cried in the entire FMA:B series. Except for the Rain Opening theme, but that’s not exactly counted. LOL.

i’m just tired of seeing royai posts in the tag which shove its “canon-ness” down everyone’s throats with pieces of evidence which don’t make sense

As for Riza here, she isn’t crying because she’s in love with Roy or something like that. She’s crying because she’s lost Roy. And it’s not just Roy that she’s losing either—it’s their entire dream. She wants to see Roy succeed in his goal to reach the top of the military and restore democracy. She wants to be able to, in some way, atone for what she’s done in Ishval—even if it can’t be done fully. She entrusted Roy with the secrets of flame alchemy on her back, in hopes that he would use it for good—only for him to use that power to kill thousands of innocent people. And just when they’re in the middle of their work, everything seems to come to a screeching halt now that Roy’s dead. Riza put all of her faith, trust and everything that she had in Roy. She isn’t crying because she loves Roy and now he’s dead, she’s crying because everything she believed in is gone.
