1.5 + elysium speculation
if elysium is a digital world, and -- based on the official website updating magni's profile -- magni 1.0 got effectively written out of existence, replaced by 1.5... what if the friend that got erased from altare's past in the manga was actually an earlier magni clone?
(disclaimer: don't take this too seriously, this is just me connecting the 1.5 lore to almond for funsies)
(i originally shared this onto twitter here but i figured i'd move some stuff over lol. also trying to populate this tag)
though i think altare Knows about the cloning, and may even have a certain level of involvement in the process (thanks to his joke(?) about the new magni being more loyal, and also thanks to the fanart that depict him as helping the new clone "relearn" magni habits...), i don't think altare would have known from the start
like... in alchemist's prologue (AP), it was suggested that altare knew magni (in the academy), compared to the way manga altare was like "not you again -__-" when he sees magni... unless (+ if we take alchemist's prologue as canon, which, to be fair, we don't have to, magni never said it was canon. 1.5 does reference parts of it though) there was some other kind of fall out to have happened between the events of AP and the manga?
having different tofu clones could explain why manga magni feels so different from other magnis we know of, though
in any case, since altare and magni apparently end up traveling together for some unspecified period of time (based on the manga lore), altare would inevitably find out about the cloning, and may even help with it later on. and after all, altare's room does have an ocean view...
the thing with AP is that it sounded like altare was the one who sought out magni, after magni made a name for himself as the "great" alchemist (vs how the manga seemingly has magni be the one who sought out altare, though it does hint at them having had previous dealings too)...
but if any of this was with previous tofu clones that got wiped from existence, that could explain the disparities lol
me making this about almond is just me having shippy brainrot and having fun contemplating if them and their fates are more intertwined than we know (and that they know), if memories can get lost to data rewriting, and/or data not being carried over between clones
i just think it's a fun idea if altare and magni knew each other before, but (as an older clone) one got wiped from existence/altare's memories, but still end up finding each other again...
there's also just. elysium, as a digital world, being built on data, and whether that data can be manipulated (by something like... a philosopher's stone?)
since classically, a philosopher's stone is capable of doing great things, beyond normal means... in the context of elysium, maybe the philosopher's stone can change the code (data) of the world?
the existence of "corruption beasts" and the fact that people can be erased from the world (again, based on the manga and altare's friend) have always been related to the idea of data manipulation for me, and i think the philosopher's stone could also play into that
idk if this is a concept they'll get into at any point but it's something i like to think about LOL
memories as data storage... data manipulation, data erasure, data corruption... it's all very interesting.
i also think that, if they were ever to try and reach a "happy ending" (e.g. no longer needing to have tofu clones, no longer having expiration dates on each clone; to not lose others to corruption, or flat-out erasure...), it might need to be done through data manipulation
or the idea of writing themselves a better ending (of reaching into the code and writing something better for all of them...)

Vesper's Interview with Magni (x)
Vesper: What are the qualities it would take to capture the heart of the great 🧤?
Magni:
I like confidence, like, uh, like they know what they're about, what they want, and they have goals, they’re very defined people, I'm not looking for someone to drag along or have to take care of - of course, that's not saying that I want to like, neglect them or anything, but I like people that are really set in who they are. [...] That's why I really like Altare, he's very much like that. I-I think we're all like that, but he's like, the most, um, I don't know, he comes across as like, I have this specific thing I want to do and this is how I want to do it, can you help me, can you be a part of this? and I really lo- I love people like that.

hello again
just putting it out there that since this is a sideblog, i’ll follow/like/etc. from my main blog
i’ll put out now that i do enjoy engaging with shipping but i also like to tag everything so feel free to blacklist (if anyone out there is interested in lore discussion but wants to avoid all shipping, which is understandable) (just looking for the tempura on tmblr...)
