[tobiarts]

i’ve never been intrigued w/ a rewrite aaron idea this much pls pls tell me abt ur Aaron Lycan rewrite 🧎

👀👀👀👀 I am telling you SO hard rn

Okay SO basically this idea is built on the fact that Zane probably isn't stupid enough to let people just see him... committing mass murder and standing around hundreds of corpses?? Like he has a reputation to uphold, can't go breaking mama's heart, etc. etc.

Starts off very similar- Aaron's son comes home with some very obviously cursed amulet. Is like "Hey, dad! Look!" And Aaron is like. Holy shit put that away. As soon as he grabs it or triggers it in some way, the entire town dies, etc.

Zane isn't just vibing at the entrance laughing evilly like an idiot? So instead Aaron breaks down sobbing, absolutely destroyed by the death of everything he worked up to and had.

Sometime later Zane approaches the town with a group of guards with the expectation of finding some ten-year-old there confused as hell/crying.

Nope! There is this 7' mountain of pure muscle sobbing his heart out.

Zane approaches him with the intention of getting his guards to kill him. When Aaron instead prostrates before him and begs him to believe that he didn't do this, Zane's plans change.

Partially because Zane is so easy to manipulate if he thinks you're under his control, and also because he is nothing if not resourceful.

Also not sure if Aaron is the one with the relic, but if he is Zane recognises this and realises he cannot lose this opportunity to have a relic under his control.

So Zane agrees to hear him out under the condition he goes to jail willingly. Aaron of course does and once he's there Zane hears him out as if he wasn't the one to kill all of his friends and family.

Using this to his advantage, Zane moulds this gentle giant to his will. He convinces Aaron he wants to help him, that he believes him, that they can trust each other, etc. In his vulnerability, this is what Aaron needs and absolutely falls for it.

From there, Aaron spends some time resting and being cared for. Once better though, Zane hardly even needs to ask Aaron to be his guard. However, instead of becoming a member of the Jury of Nine, Aaron becomes his personal guard. He uses him to do any dirty work he doesn't want to be associated with, sneaking around, and following him on delicate missions.

You know Kronk and Yzma? Like that

Aaron refuses to acknowledge Zane's wrongdoings. To him, there is always a reason for his actions, an explanation, etc. He essentially woobifies Zane.

Eventually, Aaron is sent to Phoenix Drop to scout out Garroth. Either due to Aaron's lack of elegance or Aphmau and Aaron's relics being drawn to each other, Aphmau finds him in the woods. He is the worst liar + anxious as he's been majorly isolated by Zane so just stays silent. Aphmau misinterprets it as him being cool and mysterious.

While Zane is initially pissed, he eventually decides to keep Aaron there as a pair of eyes on the inside. Not even Brian knows he's there.

To shorten the story: Aphmau befriends him and he sees her as his daughter. I'm thinking she develops a one-sided crush on him, but absolutely loses it when he rejects her feelings since she's never really been told no. This break in their relationship is ultimately what keeps him with Zane when he opens up the portal to the Irene Dimension. This also removes the really OOC and forced 'villain arc' Garroth has. Irene bless.

I don't know if I want him to stay in the Irene Dimension to fight Zane, or if I want it to be someone else yet. TBH it's mostly up to him meeting Aphmau that I've been bouncing around in my noggin.

Not MCD but in Phoenix Drop High,

Aaron is a senior and Zane is his freshman childhood friend. Due to them being childhood friends, Aaron follows Zane around and helps him with his evil schemes. It's more comedic and fails horribly due to both of them being dorks. Both of them are too uncool to get into the Shadow Knights as well

ANYWAY those are my ideas. I could go on SO much about so many stupid things, but this is Aaron specifically!!! It might change, especially since I really want to fuck with Garroth and Laurences arcs.... (Also I think the boys deserve to have some sort of relationship outside of Aphmau) (Also this was weird to write since in my re-write Aphmau is called Apple...) BUT thank you sm for asking me, I am kissing you so much rn tumblr user aaronisawhore!!!!
