Would these stems disqualify Cyans?

Hey guys
So my first (and only spot) was found last year in front of a school in the mid peninsula region in Ca. This year the landscapers replaced the mix of hardwood chips and soil with a mix that contained hardwood and redwood chips.
I figured that there’s a chance my patch would die. But I’ve been checking the area hoping to see some activity ever since the rain. Today I found a new patch on the same property. Color wise and shape they fit right in with the Cyans I found last year. However, the one thing giving me pause is the stems. After finding cyans for the first time, I was surprised by how tough and fibrous the stems were. These guys have stems that seem to be a lot more flimsy. I just bent the stem and pulled. It came off instead of having to twist the stems like I did last year.
I’m definitely on planning on doing a spore print later on. But since I’m trying to develop my ID skills so I can hunt more efficiently. I thought i’d ask: can cyans have stems that are soft and flimsy if they’ve been exposed to rain recently?

Yeah, these aren't the cyans you're looking for... sorry man, not psilocybe. I'm thinking Marasmius species, but wait for others, I'm a noobling.

On second thought I think you are right. The stems are discolored from spores but I went back and found a clean one. The stem was more caramel colored than white. I think I was really hoping to see cyans and tricked my brain.
Will wait for a TI but I believe you are right

Not Psilocybe or anything else psychoactive, can't say for sure what you have, but I do know that they are not psychoactive.

I'm thinking they're maybe really old Rhodocollybia butyracea?

Inactive, semi-toxic, nonedible.
