Jacie Denton
Ian Janiel Denton, commonly known as Avocado Ian, is one of the three main mascots of the remix tree, along with his sister Paula Denton, and Toast Michaelwaver. He was the OC of an unknown Scratch user who was added to the remix world by fishfritters due to the machinations of Xx_warriercatz_xX[2]; baffled and jaded by the remix tree at first[3], over time he seemed to soften, revealing an antsier personality[4].
He is Anina Arquaz's boyfriend.
Stand
Crazy Filthy Bizarre Echoes
Ian's main Stand, Crazy Filthy Bizarre Echoes / Reverb in US Releases Ultra Total Xtreme Meltdown Burn Frost Zoom Remix Takedown Extreme Edition at a Reasonable Price Act 5 – or just Crazy Filthy Bizarre Echoes for short – has the power to alter any number in existence. Anything that can be quantified in a number can be edited by Crazy Filthy Bizarre Echoes, and if this makes it seem ridiculously overpowered, that's because it is. The number appears on-screen as a Scratch slider variable.
Its only depicted instance of use is when Avocado Ian wanted to alter Xx_warriercatz_xX's talking speed. He called out the entire name of the Stand in order to to summon it; it's unclear if Ian has to do this every time.
Jacie Denton
Ian's secondary Stand, Jacie Denton, is a sentient Stand, based on a combination of JC Denton from Half-Life and Sissel from Ghost Trick. He exists not in the physical remix world, but in the World of the Dead, though he can view the physical world and interact with it using his Stand power: the ability to move himself between objects in the physical world, allowing him to possess objects and manipulate them. [5]
He was created when Paula used Crazy Remic to remix Ian's dying body; he woke up in the World of the Dead and was guided by a mysterious voice who explained his power to him, and helped him play a part in defeating Xx_warriercatz_xX. Initially, he believed he was Ian, but the mysterious voice later clarified his identity, and he resolved to help Paula out, seeing as his Stand User was dead.[5] Ian was later revived, and Jacie's current status is unclear.[2]
History
Creation
Avocado Ian was an OC created by an unknown Scratch user in real life, who submitted him to an OC reviewer on Scratch. The reviewer gave him a high rating, sparking jealousy in Matthew Rockefeller, whose OCs had received a low rating. Matthew decided to take revenge by trapping the highest-rated OCs inside a world of insanity; using their Stand, they created the remix tree, which contained a fictional universe where Ian and the other highest-rated OCs lived. From Ian's perspective, he had always lived in this fictional remix world, and now the absurdity was simply ramping up as the Scratch users portrayed more and more ridiculous things in their projects.[2]
The insanity begins
Ian was waiting for the bus at a bus stop in Ian's home, along with his sister Paula and a stranger who he would later discover was named Toast.[1] However, when the bus arrived, it drove past them and flew away, much to his bewilderment; all he could muster was "shut the up".[3]
Ian later found himself in a strange yellow void. He and Paula discovered an evil plot by Toast, who hypnotized him and made him attempt to kill Paula; however, she successfully defeated Toast, and the two siblings happily went onto another adventure.[6] Along with Toast and Paula, he would go on to experience several other wacky remix shenanigans, such as:
- Going through a distorted version of the three's home world[7]
- Acting out Deus Ex memes[8]
- Inexplicably shooting Toast[8]
- The last two bullet points again but this time in ASMR[9]
All of this made him bewildered and exasperated[3], and he realized something was wrong and that certain events were repeating. When he realized this, the remix tree seemed to temporarily rewind to a previous project, and Ian found himself in the wastelands; however, when he went into the house's door, he was greeted with the Jake Paul store, and suddenly it was back to inanity[9]. He found himself shooting Toast again, and attempted to escape and find his way back to his homeland[3], but was confronted by distorted versions of Paula and Toast and had to escape into space.[10]
In space, he confronted Jake Paul's space fleet, and was able to destroy it. When he finally got back home with Paula, he discovered that things were different than he remembered: apparently Jake Paul had been tormenting his land for centuries, and now he was being hailed as a hero known as the Silent Wind[10]. All of this baffled him so much that he decided to record some tapes documenting his experiences, hoping the denizens of his hometown would listen and believe the strange things he had experienced.[3]
Return to absurdity
He and Paula later returned to the insanity of the remix tree; the two appeared with Killer Queen in a Five Nights at Freddy's parody, attacking the player[3], and there was also a version of this where the only enemy was multiple copies of Ian[11]. The trio of Killer Queen, Paula, and Ian would continue into the next few remices, where the three cosplayed Pillar Men from JoJo's[12], then characters from Shrek[13], and celebrated ZiqwerkelSharda's birthday[14]. Ian even got featured in his own clicker game.[15]
Crazy Noisy Showdown
One day, he, Paula and Toast were hanging out at the Crazy Noisy Street Corner, and Paula struck up a conversation about Ian, which led to Ian revealing that he was in love with Anina Arquaz.[4] Paula was skeptical given Anina's previous murderous tendencies, but he was indifferent, and Toast didn't really understand the situation.[16]
Suddenly, they were approached by Xx_warriercatz_xX, who complained about how chaotic the remix tree had gotten, and pulled a gun on the trio.[16] They then claimed that Ian was the source of the tree's chaos, as proved by his tapes which proved he remembered everything that had happened to him up to that point; this meant that shooting Ian was the only way to end the chaos. They shot Ian, and Paula used Crazy Remic on his dying body, which created a Stand: Jacie Denton.[5]
Waking up in the World of the Dead believing he was Ian, Jacie was guided by a mysterious voice who showed him how to use his Stand power to help Paula defeat Xx_warriercatz_xX. He did so, possessing a can and causing it to fly at them, which threw them off for long enough for Paula to KO them with Crazy Remic. The mysterious voice then clarified Jacie's identity to him, and he resolved to help Paula, seeing as his Stand User was dead.[5]
Ian was revived by Toast, who used Don't Bring Me Down to contort his body to be alive again. Along with Paula and Toast, Ian then listened to Xx_warriercatz_xX rant about how they had been the one to create the remix tree in reality, but Paula requested Ian use Crazy Filthy Bizarre Echoes to fast-forward it, and he did. The three went to go get ham sandwiches, but were stopped by Killer Queen, who rewound time to Paula's childhood using Milkcan Bites the Dust.[2]
Life in the remix world
At one point, he annoyed Toast into coming to the park. Toast realized that some people might ship them together, and Ian was freaked out by this, but Paula thought it sounded cute.[17]
Trivia
- His name in the code of r/CursedScratchProjects, his first appearance, was "tennisball".
- The name "Avocado Ian" was a reference to a story turtlehat, fishfritters, and ZiqwerkelSharda had recently written, which featured a character named Avocado Man. It was changed to Avocado Ian to match Paula's cries of "Ian!" in the audio of the plural of remix is remices.
- His last name was added when he was featured in a parody of the Deus Ex Malkavian Mod; because he took the place of a character named "JC Denton", he was given the last name Denton as well.
- Both Avocado Ian and Paula's middle names are based on the D'Arby brothers from JoJo's, taking the first name of one of them and replacing the first letter with another one of their initials. Ian's is taken from "Daniel J. D'Arby", while Paula's is taken from "Telence T. D'Arby" (purposefully using a strange romanization of "Terrence"). Daniel Delence Darby's name references the same characters.
