[whoa-an-mcyt-blog]

so here's a funny story for you all: ebony wasn't even ivory's idea. it was basically the biggest "headcanon becoming canon" moment in history.

imagine you're an ivory fan in her discord, and it's, like, hours after she came out. there's no lore video from her yet, obviously, and her old videos definitely aren't canon, so what are we supposed to do with the channel specifically dedicated to discussion and theorizing of ivorylore?

make up stuff, that's what. ebony was originally created as a fan art, just called "evil ivory" at the time. the creator just took ivory's colours and inverted them, like all those other "evil versions" that exist in media. it didn't take long for the name "ebonyviolin" to be decided on, and the idea caught on very quickly in #fan-art and #ivory-lore.

(all image ids are in alt text)

ivory also happens to look at what the people in the discord are talking about. it's rare that she'll actually respond, but we know that she looks at things because she reacts to them a lot. she actually did respond to the creation of ebony, but only after people had made, like, 15 fanarts of it. she gave hardly any indication as to what she was going to do with it, but she seemed to approve.

anyways, now imagine you're an ivory fan in her discord again, but this time it's the premiere of the first video on her new channel, and everyone is 90% sure it's gonna be lore, mostly because the #ivory-lore channel literally came back right before the premiere happened. we're watching ivory do basically all we expect from her: casually critting three guys, the unreliable narrator stuff, pretty standard. and then we see another figure near the end, right after ivory walks back into her house she definitely built herself. black and green, dragon (or demon?) wings, otherwise looking exactly like ivory other than the colour shift.

everybody freaks out.

ebonyviolin is canon.

(on a slightly related note: i claim credit for ebony having a british accent because I SAID IT FIRST)

ok so i was Thinking and then i came up with an idea: what if the new ivory video is a metaphor for burnout/demotivation. hear me out:

the first half of the video is formatted exactly like a typical minecraft video. ivory said on stream that it was meant to be a "playful jab" at them (something along those lines). now, the reason why so many youtubers make videos like this is because, well, they're popular right now, the algorithm gods bless those videos in particular, until it becomes oversaturated and people move onto the next trend. and having to constantly make things you don't like because it's your only source of money, and having that thing you need to make be constantly shifting without you realizing, is like, prime burnout fuel.

so halfway during the video, ivory's persona breaks down a little. she doesn't really like the clickbaity character she's put on and and doesn't even feel convinced by it herself. there's a quote from the video right after this breakdown that i think exemplifies this: "you and i have both seen this a thousand times before. the same thing regurgitated, like a landfill of sodden ideas." as if ivory is recognizing that she wants to make different content, but the algorithm isn't going to like that content, as well as the fact that every other youtuber is probably in the same boat.

and then ebony comes. ebony is actually pretty interesting in this interpretation, because she seems to be trying to make ivory do the good thing in this situation and take a break. she feels the same way about ivory's content being unoriginal ("wow, you take over the world! how inspiring, i haven't seen that one done before.", "but you agree! it's not what i want."), but is also trying her best to get ivory out of the situation ("i'm doing you a favour. just rest, you need it.") there's a few more interesting things in the forest world scene, such as ivory saying she's tired and "this is the part where you try to justify yourself". but despite ebony trying to get ivory to rest, ivory says that she wants to get out. she hasn't killed god yet, hasn't finished making the video. right before ivory hits the candle and the epileptic scene starts, ebony says "last time you did this you nearly tore yourself in half", which implies that ivory has already worked herself to death and experienced the consequences of that, and yet she's doing it all again, because she needs to do that for money.

the epileptic scene could represent something like a moment of over-stress or having a mental breakdown? as you might be able to tell, it's slightly hard to figure out what it means exactly. but it's obvious that ivory is in pain, and trying to keep working when she was exhausted was her tipping point.

and then flashing lights and breakcore and stuff and then bam it's a normal minecraft video again woohoo! for a few minutes, at least. the video ends with a mini glitch effect, which i think could symbolize that ivory has not broken free of her pain, she's just pushed it to the side so she could finish.

yes i have gone insane

I love how we all thought Ebony was the Evil one, and then Ebony is like “Ivory. Ivory why not try peace Ivory. Girlie stop trying to commit war crimes”

They might be both evil in their own way

[notasadtree]

ebony is the stressed out baby sitter to ivory and i Love it shes so annoying (endearingly)

“no ivory you cant blow up france again”

“ivory what did i say about burning down places”

“oh my god ivory we talked about ripping through realities, go in your time out forest”

[notasadtree]

HOORAY!!! HOORAY!!! HOORAY!!! HOORAY!!! HOORAY!!!
