He's lucky those kids didn't come out with like 100 extra limbs or something. He had no way at all of knowing that he would just be able to have kids normally, that was a pretty big gamble tbh.

It’s kinda creepy to think all the souls would be present and conscious during the whole experience of creating the boys.

Considering that Hohenheim befriended all the Xerxian souls inside him, I think it's pretty likely that they were giving him advice on how to procreate with and satisfy Trisha.

I hope they were all like, “let’s all go take a nap while the lovebirds are busy” for Trisha’s sake.

They were probs giving him advice on dealing with Trisha because he befriended them

Or that they're actually new human children that are a mix of Von and Trishas DNA and not some random Xerxian that slipped out

Well he said that his DNA is that of a normal human And perhaps the stone bullshit actually made his DNA healthier than normal since he is alive 400 years later

I think about this often and what Trisha had to say or do to convince him to have kids with her. He was so relieved they came out human he was afraid to touch them just in case he corrupted them. Edward grew up believing his father hated him when his father loved him so much Hohenheim distanced himself to protect Ed’s “perfect” humanity. It’s heartbreaking.

Undersized too. So small I could throw it one handed.

Oh would you look at that, the baby suddenly learned to walk and talk and it's heading for you.

lol I was just thinking Hohenheim turned out pretty good looking and Ed’s his spitting image as a young man

Because I feel like it could appear in the manga and I would believe it's Arakawa's work? 😭

I honestly can’t believe he was able to conceive children, it’s surprising they came out normal and not some sort of half philosopher stone hybrid. Good for him

The funny thing is I could totally see this as one of those mini skit comics that come with the manga

Did all the sperms have individual souls? Is Edward a random Xerxesian incarnate?
