Something I don't notice people talking about but I think about way too often like probably more often than is healthy is the fact that Aphmau is immortal. Because Irene was immortal.

There is going to be a point, long into the future, but still inevitable, where all of her friends are going to die. There is going to be a point when one of her closest friends who she has adventured with for decades dies in battle or from sickness or just any cause of death really. And then another will die. And another. As they get older and the risk of death gets higher. But Aphmau? No, she's going to be alive throughout ALL of this and a lot longer.

She'd get more and more desperate to protect her loved ones as they slowly die out, until eventually, she's left alone. Yeah sure maybe she can go make new friends, but it wont be the same. She'd just been seen as a goddess to everyone. She has years upon years upon years if experience in life now. And she knows, even if she made new friends, found new loved ones, that they'd also die eventually.

Like idk I see some people talk about something like this with Mystreet or like AUs where she already knows she's immortal or stuff like that (IF the topic of her immortality is brought up at all). But I've never really seen anyone talk about the middle between Mystreet and what we know of MCD. How immortality will effect the future of MCD even before Mystreet.
