#aphmau theory

[goat-guy-tm]

I have a dumb little theory is that any woman in the Aphverse that is named Aphmau is a Irene reincarnation, because not all 'Aphmau-Like' is named Aphmau, for example Phoenix from Meteora Valley and Ava from My Inner Demons.

What does that mean for Heart Point!Aphmau? Who knows, but by hell is that highschool girl about be put through hell by some thousand ysar old goddess-

How Levin is Related To Garroth

So, I've been on Aphmau Tumblr for a while; I loved Aphmau growing up in the early days of Youtube and how she shaped me as a person. You may not have to like her or support her but there is no denying that she's shaped all of us as people. In any case, I want to talk about something that's been bugging me for YEARS. And that's the Levin-Garroth debate.

For people who weren't around when Aphmau was uploading MCD, you might not understand. So, disclaimer if you haven't watched the original MCD series because there will be spoilers.

I and maybe others have been confused on why exactly Levin looks so much like Garroth. And that's not only to the fandom, in the actual canon of the series, everyone brings up the fact that Garroth and Levin's similiarities are uncanny. Levin even says in the second episode of season 2, "Everyone here says I look like Garroth, heh...I just hope that they don't expect me to live up to his reputation..."

So, within the series canon, everyone thinks that Levin looks like Garroth. So, what does that mean? Well, in season 2 episode 100, after Aphmau finds out that she's actually Irene. She says this, "Bloodline? Wait, does that mean that Levin is my great-great-grandson?" Which Hyria says,

"No, Irene was once a human many centuries ago, she had family, and she did a great job keeping them around her. Irene never had any kids of her own, but she did want children."

Irene never had children, which means we can rule out the theory that Irene and Esmund ended up together. But that first part, Irene had a family, which means, she had siblings and a mother and father. So, what does that say? Well, if we can dissect Irene's family tree, then that means that we can figure out how Garroth and Levin are related.

Most of this is my own canon, I won't give any names to characters that haven't been introduced. Most of the information that I'm saying are inspired of Jess's personal life, which she does in her own stories.

Irene's mother -- Irene's father (We can say that they were magic welders since that's the only explanation for Irene's gift. And as we know within the series, if you prefect your magic enough you can slow your own aging I.E. Hyria and Lucinda).

Then there's her brother, which isn't canon but for sake of story, let's say Irene has a brother. He has to also be a magic welder, because his parents are both; so, let's say he married a woman and ends up having a daughter.

Irene's niece, she ends up marrying into the Ro 'Meaves', centuries before O'Kahsis is born. In which she has a son,

Irene's great-nephew, he ends up marrying a woman. Who gives birth to...you guessed it. Garte. Who marries Zannah.

Which explains why Hyria and Zannah are so close; if Irene was still around when Irene's niece was born then she was around when Garte was born. Since Hyria and Irene were so close, I'm sure that her family knew about Hyria; considering her family as well.

Making them close by the time that Garroth, Zane, and Vlad were born.

Of course, this is all a fan theory and speculating. The reason why I had it to where Irene had a brother is because in IRL Jess has a half-brother.

So, what about Levin exactly? Well, remembered how I said that Irene's brother was married and had Irene's great-nephew? Well, he also had a daughter. Who ended up have a son; guess who that son was? The old lord of Pheonix Drop.

Phoenixes are supposed to represent rebirth, magic, renewal, and safety. Well, what does Aphmau do the moment she steps into that world? She's rebirthed, as a new person with magic and an instinct to protect people.

On top of all of that, it's canon that Gate and the Old Lord are magic welders; how else would Gate know magic? It's because Garte was born with it and taught Zannah how to use it along with Zane and Garroth.

Then what about Garroth? Doesn't that mean he's technically related to Irene? Well, yes. I know that probably sounds gross because Aphmau is technically supposed to be Irene herself. However, that's not how that works; when someone is reincarnated, that doesn't mean they're related to them. So, we're in the clear without any incest. (Thank God).

So, does that mean that Garroth and Levin are distant cousins? Yes, it's the only reason to explain why the two look so alike. Genes also play a big part in it as well.

Let's say, Irene's brother has the same auburn brown that she does. Then that means, he'd have to marry someone that carries the blue eye trait. To counter act the brown, Irene's family needs to be carrying the blue-eyed trait.

Then, both siblings have to be able to have the carrying trail. And since Irene's brother had both had daughter and a son, the daughter would carry the blue-eyed trait. Since the son ends up having another son, who ends up marrying someone who has blue eyes or carries it. Which passes it onto Levin.

On top of that, we already know that Garte has blue eyes which carried to both Zane and Garroth.

I know this was a lot to unpack in a single post, but this is the only way to explain why the two looked so similar. And not choke it up to ship bait. Which was probably the intention in the beginning. However, I'm sure that if Jess got to finish MCD Rebirth she would end up explaining it.

The Birth of Aphmau

The Aphmau multiverse and its religious elements have me in a chokehold

[saranootnoot]

It's even more trippy that Emmalyn is Ghost in mystreet- I was flabbergasted and realized why she liked Zane.. I'm pretty sure Minecraft diaries are related to mystreet and are their descendants-

Why would Zane do this 😔

[fruitcakebro]

The theory that Levin is Garroth's son enrages me, because Garroth would not have willingly had an affair with his lord's wife. It's out of character, and just doesn't seem like the kind of thing he would have done.

But the theory has basis in canon, and that honestly just makes me madder, because it demonstrates just how little Jess seemed to understand her own characters. And besides, the whole thing with Levin's mom was about how Levin is Irene's closest descendant, so why doesn't his design look at all like Irene? It just seems like a really weird choice to me. Levin should look like Aphmau. There's precident for it. And it would have been a way to interestingly foreshadow the fact that Aphmau was Irene.

But no, we need more pointless drama. Are we freakin' ignoring the fact that Garroth's own mother had an affair-baby, and it nearly cost her marriage, and possibly her life? Even aside from his moral compass and code of honour, Garroth would NOT. Unless we're saying she freakin assaulted him, then-

Oh god.

Oh no.

Oh no.

If she did, but Garroth never came foreward because he thought it was shameful-

Oh fuck.

just remembered watching mcd and thinking "oh, garroth and levin looking alike is supposed to be a symbolic way to show that garroth is levin's father figure! that's sweet!" and then entering the fandom and realizing that a large portion of the fandom interpreted it as "MATILDA HAD AN AFFAIR WITH GARROTH"

headcannon that in pdh katelyn wasn't put in witchcraft classes by accident, hyria knew her mother was a witch and specifically requested she be put in her class so she could train her. but katelyn being stubborn like she is and refusing to be anything like her mother, dropped the class after the first week

The music student in my mind goes crazy when I think of what the themes for MCD characters could be

I always think about this and it’s been taking over my brain. So here themes I envision for the MCD characters

Laurence

His theme would be a tragedy. Something that foreshadows and hints to the pain that awaits him. Theres a low hum of bass and horns, slowly growing until it overwhelms the accompaniment. Reflecting his suppressed shadow knight abilities, the instincts that wail louder each day.

There’s a recurring chord progression played on a piano, a soft hopeful sound. It shines through the menacing bass, his humanity prevailing against the odds.

Eventually though, The bass and horns win out. but that chord always sings quietly.

Garroth

His theme is quieter than anyone else’s. He hides who he is, so his theme hides aswell.

Woodwinds carry the melody, a quiet and gentle song that speaks to who he is. Garroth puts other before himself, but he’s selfish in a twisted way. He protects his identity and heart by burying it deep.

The melody would fade when he looses himself. Brass takes over the melody, it’s pitch is lowered and blends into the accompanying instruments.

It prevails in the end, Strings and Woodwinds playing together in harmony as he finally accepts who he is.

Aphmau

Her and Irene have complimentary themes. Irene’s is haunted by an organ and twinkling music box. It’s hollow, she feels nothing so her sound lacks life.

Aphmaus is lively, The themes is played by a piano and violin, hopeful and strong. It ebbs and flows naturally, like the wind or ocean waves.

Her theme dims when she is losing her will. Her determination is the driving force behind everything she does, when she loses motivation the music becomes distorted.

The distortion mimics Irene’s theme. the hollow organ and haunting music box invading and playing alongside the Violin and Piano.

Eventually they blend together, Irene’s theme becomes complete and regains its energy. Because Aphmau and Irene are meant to meld together, two incomplete halves become whole.

I just remembered Brian is Alexis' older brother.

You think she ever wonders about him? Her big bro who betrayed the village and disappeared before she was old enough to know him. The fuzzy smiles in her memories- did she make them up, or was there someone else before "the traitor"?

Someone who had a reason to destroy everything they loved.
