It's honestly very refreshing to see MT!Aphmau maintain agency even as Aarmau becomes a more central part of the plot.

I've touched on this before but I have a lot of frustrations with MS!Aphmau because after a certain point it feels like she has no individuality beyond her relationship to Aaron. Every motivation she has connects in some way to Aaron, she only seems to make decisions based on Aaron, and every time shes talking to someone other than Aaron it feels like shes speed running the Bechtel Test.

This is especially bad in season 5 but i think season 6 gets the most consequences from it, because they try to give her more agency and motivations beyond Aaron, but its inconsistent, she can be self sufficient in one scene but in the next damseled for Aaron to save. She can jump 15 feet across a river, holding a grown ass man twice her weight, at one moment, and yet be easily physically restrained by a human Ein at another. She can be quick thininking and then dumb as rocks 2 seconds later.

I guess what I'm getting at is that, to me, MS!Aphmau never felt like she had a consistent character. She always felt like she was just whatever the plot called for in that moment, and unfortunately for Mystreet, that mostly just meant Aaron's girlfriend.

MT!Aphmau being consistent enough where you can plot a pretty straight forward character arc and understand how she got to where she is, feels like a breath of fresh air comparatively.

ZANE SAID SHIT

Hc that Zane is coconut crab because they're massive, strong, can naturally have a black blue hue and love to steal shinny things. Coconut crabs are actually hermit crabs so they cannot breathe underwater but Zane is special so it's okay.

i think my fear of shirtless men came from Aaron Lycan from Aphmau.

like wdym a guy can just show up and half all my ongoing romances that I spent seasons building. smh (lh)

I've seen a lot of people say that its stupid to use Dancing Maddness in a fakeout death because that song means someones going to die- but thats not true.

Usually when that song comes up it doesn't mean someone's gonna die, it usually indicates Irene is connected somehow. It was first used in the Diaries season 1 finale and no one died there (unless you count Katelyn killing Lillian i guess).

The song playing while MT Aaron was getting chased down isnt meant to trick the audience, its meant to indicate Irene is involved somehow. And considering the Wolf lowkey prophesying his death, and what happens in the other series, it really does seem Aaron is just destined to die.

(I swear to god every conflict in these series can be traced back to Irene and Shad having a MYTHICALLY BAD breakup)

Spoilers for the most recent episode of Mermaid Tales:

What in Irene’s name…

So I liked this episode, despite having the hype moments spoiled by the top comments appearing to me. Anyways, they got straight to the point of what the past episodes had been “building up” which was great, cause we just got the second His Choice hitting the fandom. We even got the someone’s about to die anthem playing…BUT no one DIED. Unfortunately, the man walks another day to see another plank.

Now, with how Aphmau as a channel has been, how dark it got at the end well… HOLY MILKTOAST FUCK. Jess, I didn’t think you still had it in you, that was just marvellous acting. Bravo. I got some gnarly flashbacks that guttural scream from His Choic ..it never doesnt hit like a truck.

Sadly the wolf person kinda cut the tension in half for me. Anime esc villain here hunting Aaron and I’m just wondering why they’re completely invulnerable. It can’t be Alina anymore tho. It doesn’t make sense. Maybe the non scarred wolf mask person is Alina, but this guy can’t be. The motives to kill Aaron wouldn’t make sense then.

I don’t really no what else to say, I’m not really an essay person, except Captain Stone can go fuck Garte. They deserve each other.

I don't think The Wolf actually wants to kill Aaron- That's the assumption Laurence made.

All they said was that Aaron's time was ending. I don't think that meant "I'm going to kill him." I think it meant "I need to save him."

Tbh this just confirmed it can't be anyone else but Alina, no one else would have the motivation or the power. The only other option would be its an entirely new character all together.

Zane gets a human body

Ah, its like times never changed.

Not again.

Aphmau being able to clock Edwin as being extremely weird and invasive when hes otherwise relatively normal is such a breath of fresh air. Girl immediately sensed the incel vibes and acted accordingly.

The more Aphverse series i watch, the more embarrassing Mystreet!Aphmau's lack of agency becomes.

It makes sense to a degree with Diaries!Aphmau because she's secretly god and has prior combat experience (unbeknownst to her).

But Alternates!Aphmau? Mermaid Tales!Aphmau?

Those two were just basic civilians before shit hit the fan in their universes, Mermaid Tales!Aphmau is canonically the dumbest Aphmau version so far, yet it never feels like she couldnt at least give it a good shot if she was to get in a bad situation.

I think this mainly comes down to the fact that Mystreet!Aphmau's character being wholly defined by her relationship to Aaron, and vice versa. Whether or not Aphmau is able to think for and at least attempt to defend herself or not, it really comes down to if it's convenient for an epic Aarmau moment. I can't think of a single time where Mystreet!Aphmau had a motivation at least partly separated from Aaron.

Aphmau's year is the perfect example of this, Aphmau was essentially kidnapped, assualted, and had all of her decision making taken from her, yet the only thing she focuses on is that she serious hurt Aaron. Which, while yes is incredibly traumatising, thats the only thing shes upset about? Not the black eye she got from the whole ideal?

Aaron is gone for one (1) year, and she goes into a crying comatose state for the whole ass year. Meanwhile, Diaries!Aphmau takes about 2 weeks before she finally calms down enough to continue on, and Alternates!Aphmau takes presumably a few months to finally move on and accept what happened, but she isnt useless for the whole duration and continues on despite her grief. And in those two examples, Aaron fully died, yet they handle that better than Mystreet!Aphmau just not seeing him for a year.

Anyway, Mystreet!Aphmau, if placed in any other Aphverse universe, would be the first to die, and i am including the SMP in that

Just watched all of Alternates and relevant nodern Dante and good Danchan in 2026 is crazy to me.
