Summary
It’s really never a good time to become abruptly aware of the genre you’re in.
Especially when you’re slated to become a major antagonist in a shounen manga.
Envy is suddenly, terribly, horribly aware of the ink and paper their reality was born from. Of the tropes and the hand of the author and the storytelling concepts of a universe theirs was created to entertain. Of the fact that they have seen passed the fourth wall, and they distinctly did not like what they saw there. Envy knows the future in the shape of animation cells and manga panels and information from a universe they were never meant to be aware of, and they are fairly certain it’s already started to crack their sanity.
(They know how the story ends.
They know how their story ends.
Tears and dust and everything they have ever existed for rendered meaningless. Humiliated and laid bare before beings that should’ve been beneath them, that should’ve lost by all rights, that would’ve lost if the nature of stories didn’t demand victory from the protagonists.
Well, fuck that.)

Or, Envy becomes aware that they're in a manga and decides to tell canon can go fuck itself by becoming a good guy.
