Elevate Your Gaming: AKKO Gear 5075B Keyboard Experience

Review of the AKKO Gear 5075B 75% Wireless Keyboard: Cheap custom keyboard with ISO-DE layout or boring GMMK Pro clone?

He was first dubious when the manufacturer, AKKO Gear, came me and gave me their most recent movement in ISO-DE layout. Surely a Chinese Glorious GMMK Pro? he eventually decided to take the test after carefully reading the specifications. You may read about the 5075B’s capabilities in the test!

We didn’t always have positive experiences when a Chinese manufacturer offered us their most recent products in the past. Yes, there were always standouts, such as Soundpeats, a company we had never heard of that offers good products for not too much money.

Of course, there are also black sheep and blenders, which we enjoy letting run up in public at Igor’s LAB as well. But he says sorry to disappoint you if you were anticipating a formal review.

After some initial scepticism, the keyboard proved to be a very good input device and even provided certain bespoke features that were sometimes lacking in other keyboards (even much more expensive mainstream variants), which are frequently used by our readers.

Although the custom scene is well-versed in terms like gasket mounted and PBT keycaps, the majority of “normals” have typically grown disinterested in such subjects long ago. Even though he still a novice in the wonderful world of custom keyboards, he eagerly looking forward to the time when the lightbulb will finally go off.

Custom keyboards are pricey, which is their one and only drawback. It costs here times 30 euros for a cable, there times 80 euros for a set of keycaps, and look, there are also carrier plates made of different materials and frames with various colours a vicious cycle that frequently results in a finished keyboard costing at least 500 euros. Because they often have a smaller form factor (TKL or smaller), these custom boards have fortunately not yet been able to pique my interest.

The 5075B can almost be utilised in productive use without any issues thanks to arrow keys and a real DE layout with a respectable Enter key, but he don’t want to jump ahead and remove the device from its packing just yet.

Unboxing

Although the packaging is basic in black and white, it manages to attract the eye.

Even if the back is primarily written in Chinese, you can still make out the DE layout and the switches that are present.

Under the slider is a black cardboard box with a reflective logo.

Everyone uses the same style of packaging, though, with the keyboard being enclosed in a protective foil and given a dust cover. He don’t remember ever putting this clear cover on my keyboard while it wasn’t in use, so you might as well throw this piece of plastic junk away.

The problem is this! Quite straightforward in white, without any frills a keyboard for adults?

On the back, there is nothing but white ABS plastic. We’ll get to the folding feet and other components right away, but all four corners have soft rubber feet with excellent grip.

Given that the toggle switch can only switch between the shortcuts for MAC OS and Windows, 2-way would have likely sufficed. he don’t see how the centre position is different from the “Win” position.

A direct USB 2.4 GHz receiver is also included on the board.

In two steps, the back foot can be extended. Sorry about the dust, but after a few hours of use, the photographs on the SD card became corrupted and had to be retaken.

On the sides are subtle light strips, and of course the entire lighting system may be turned off altogether.

The USB-C port for lag-free connectivity and charging the 3000mAh battery that is permanently installed is still located at the back. The cable fits okay, but it’s also not completely secure.

Although the PBT double-shot keycaps are a little flatter than the standard Cherry MX keycaps, they are of excellent quality.

Keycaps taken off:

The volume is often controlled by the rotating knob with an aluminium case in the upper right corner. However, hitting the switch changes its functionality instead of muting the system, as he had anticipated, allowing the brightness of the illumination to be adjusted instead of the volume.

The offered model comes pre-configured with linear Akko Creamy Yellow Switches.

The switches can be replaced even while the system is operating because the board is hot-swappable. It accommodates all 3- and 5-pin switches.

He will cover the “gasket-mounted” plastic carrier plate in a subsequent paragraph. The fact that the LEDs are “south-facing” implies that additional switches are compatible with them. Since most keycaps he seen so far are designed for “north-facing” LEDs and the illumination of the letters on the Akko is dim as a result, it’s not exactly ideal for the illumination of translucent keycaps.

Additionally, the LEDs may shine a chilly white rather than a powerful blue depending on the switches that are in use. But he address that as well later.

The “stabilisers” for the huge keys, however, are quite well done. The huge space bar always moves uniformly and smoothly regardless of where you press it.

The stabilisers, however, reportedly do not come from the factory lubricated.

Additionally, there are accessories. A USB-C cable, some silicone mounts for the gasket mounting system, keycap and switch pullers, replacement keys0 a USB-C cable, and a large number of alternative keys that are also PBT double shot and not cheap printed keys are also included.

Akko also included a full set of the tactile Creamy Blue Switches, an alternative option, for comparison, which we will install and test later.

You won't wanna do this, but it truly makes bodyweight wizards.

From the light-body legends of Wu-tang, to the powerbatics proteges of the polar regions -- there is one single element of training that's absolutely hated by kids, teens, men, women, for thousands of years, and I can almost guarantee you that you too will hate this training method, though it yields the strength of smelted iron sculptures.

Failing to understand it, skipping through it, or bouncing from video to ideo will lead to continued failure in fitness and in health. So stay focused, fellow pacrimian, this is not Tik-Tok.

And I'll show you exactly what it is, how it relates your mental and physical training, and at the end of the video, several examples you can take away with you and implement today.

Lee Weiland, Pacific Rim Athletics, creator of powerbatics and welcome to training. Grounded, unwavering strength and sustainability should be the goal of each human with a body not yet in the ground, starting as young as possible and continuing into your golden years.

Maybe that's you. Awesome. Continue on your quest.

But many say they can't. They're too old, too fat, their arms are too short, like a t. rex.

But many say they can, and then do it.

Like surfer Bethany Hamilton who overcame a shark attack. Or Vennie Nemecek, the Real Wolverine. If you don't know his story, you should watch some of his videos on our channels and website.

(by the way, subscribe, but also use the link to opt-in, because if Google or social media every goes away -- which may in fact be for the betterment of mankind -- it'll be nearly impossible to stay connected with our community and videos, hidden in the mountains of Alaska.

so be sure to dive into our universe.)

And what I'm gonna show you has been used for millennia, so powerful in fact, that warriors from Shaolin to Mongolia used this methodology.

But it requires something brutal. A mentality that goes hand-in-hand with the training method I'll show you in a minute, and it will solidify your personal avatar of strength, flexibility, stamina and special skills.

But here's where most go wrong.

At best, they want sets and reps and exact workout plans, and timelines and freebies -- at worst, well... maybe not the worst, but this is pretty bad... they'll jump from video to video, comment to comment, celebrity to celebrity, making demands or complaining. Parents and adults, 40, 50, 60 plus, you know what I'm talking about.

YouTube is filled like fidget spinners on eBay with how to get abs, arms, and an 'apple-bottom'.

Anyone can do it. Here's exactly how. In 15 seconds or less.

Nutrition. Whole, real, and if real, organic food. Water. Supplement for defeciencies.

Muscle. 3-5 sets, 5-10 reps, 3-5 days per week, 2-3 bodyparts per day. Lower the reps for maximal strength and increase the reps for bull-body and endurance. Compound movements for mass and/or power, depending on the number of reps.

Flexibility. Static, passive stretching for one to five minute holds, then add dynamics when ur advanced.

For skills do sets of ten, up to a hundred, drills building the skills, always ending on a high note.

I know that's probably more than 15 seconds, but sadly that won't change the 90+% failure rate for online education, as Seth Godin has shown in his research. Because it all boils down to this one training method, but these failures stem from Unitarian Philosophy --

and yes everyone has a philosophy/theology and the better you get it, the better off you'll be in all areas, including your physical training; and I'm coining this term here first, an athletosophy that's stronger than iron.

You see, Unitarianism denies the eternal coexistence of unity and plurality. In other words, it disregards human individuality and coalesces everything into singular forms, like mass-institution, certain forms of government and cookie-cutter video courses. It's like putting bacon, eggs, toast, coffee and orange juice all in the blender and calling it breakfast. Like many political regimes do, and like the four institutions that Unitarianism is famous for, the public poorhouse, the mental institution, prisons and the public school. And like social media is now emulating, which in turn shapes people's personalities into lowest common denominator cookie-cutter forms of mainstream mediocrity, even down to how they speak, think and yes, even workout.

(bruuuuuh)

This leads to wanting what others have. The desire for immediate results without years of practice. And other shortcuts without coaching or community. Use this training method instead.

Here's half of it. The mental half.

Patience.

Do the boring stuff. The hard stuff. Without the pre-workout, blaring death metal, stimulants, demands, complaints or instant gratification.

And don't worry, we'll get to the moves. Let's part the waves like the Red Sea, knowing the chaos all around, but standing immovable in the middle, between the walls of raging water in the calmness.

And don't think I'm over-exaggerating here.

This is what training actually feels like. If you've ever grappled, fought, competed in a race, recovered from injury or sickness, you'll know what I mean. Let your body and mind become firmly grounded like the granite strength of a gargoyle perched atop its gothic spire.

You see anyone can be distracted. I mean, study a bunch of videos, do a wad, throw around some iron. Or you can become the iron. Physically, yes. But more important, mentally. Then you will, as Jackie Chan said, not let circumstances control you. You change your circumstances.

From the hand-balancer's routine to the break-dancers freeze. From the powerlifters squat to the monk's unshaken balance on poles. From the mountaintop to solitude in the wilderness, exercising patience, the strength moves will come. Patience for eight week cycles of muscular development. Patience for twenty week cycles of flexibility development. Otherwise you hit roadblock after roadblock. So slow down. Stop hitting the Unitarian with your training and use this unmoving concentrated static training instead. Which is the med I'm gonna show you --

powerbatics static training.

[the final two minutes, the trap has sprung, we've grabbed the bait]

Some have called this brutal.

Handstand positions from basic to intermediate, then to advanced.

For 10, 30, 60 second holds.

Stances. Horse. Snake. Crane. Lunge. Stick.

For 60, 120, even 360 seconds.

You know, when we train like this at our facility, every time a person drops or touches the floor, they actually amass another something special for everybody at the end.

Take the wall handstand, for example.

Ankles together, arms on your ears, nose on the wall. Five minutes, no comedowns. Every time they come down, it adds another bridge pushup for everybody. And you dare try this on your own at home, where you find where your true breaking point is, and push beyond it.

You can do it on your own, no doubt in my mind.

There might be in yours though, once you hit 29, 39, 49 seconds, but you can push through, and not only this, but all challenges in life.

Do you see why I save the moves for the last? You absolutely need to listen to the first part of these messages to even get into the headspace to do this. It's what we teach our coaches and even most advanced studence, and then this builds, level by level, into mastery.

Dyna-combos, full katas of strength, flexibility and skill. We only provide fee content to inspire you. We don't even turn adds on.

But if you'd like to take your training to higher levels, you can talk with me and my team in the next day or so. And you really will go much further than watching videos and using DIY courses by working with a sensei, teacher or coach. It'll save ten years of trial, error and frustration, since you're getting the combined decades of experience and thousands of data points from an entire team.

Or do self-study for 10-20 years, that's okay, too.

Either way, we have more videos coming up on the screen that'll help you, and I'll see you in the next video or hopefully in training soon.

#to get a feeling #bald men are kings #i don't remember that night #i don't have a personality #all aboard for funtime

New exercise plan

So I've been following Fitness Blender's HIIT workouts since last July. So for almost 10 months! HIIT is hard and makes for a great workout since it improves your strength and endurance.

However, the physique I ended up with wasn't totally what I was looking for. I looked at older pics of myself from 2018-2021 where I feel like I had a great physique. I am so upset that I was harsh on myself and body when I was 23 given that I looked pretty good. Only problem is that I used to restrict a lot of food and did not work out a lot. I never want to restrict anymore, but I do want to get into shape at the same time. And I've done this before in 2020 and 2021. There is something in common with both years.

Now I'm looking to be fit, but I want a lean and toned and slim physique. I don't want to look muscular and bulky. One might think that you need to diet and starve to get there. But not quite.

The only program that helped me achieve this is Rachael Attard's programs. It's mostly pilates focused along with walking and some high intensity cardio (running and HIIT). I know to some that sounds unusual (especially for someone who does a lot of lifting), but her programs helped me get the physique I wanted. Long and lean looking. I did Lean Legs 1 back in March and April 2020 and Glutes Abs Legs in August and September 2021. I wish I understood the science behind how her program helps, but it just has. Fitness Blender seems to have a more comprehensive, knowledgeable and healthier mentality and approach when it comes to health and fitness which I really respect. But physically, those LL and GAL programs helped me a lot.

The idea is to eat a balance of proteins, fats and carbs, to do a lot of walking, and to do some resistance training 3x a week and high intensity cardio. Since I started taking my multivitamins I feel far less cravings for junk and sugar, which helps a lot in the diet department. Even after a long day of work I come home and want something healthy (veggies, sweet potatoes and lean proteins as opposed to chicken tenders and fries). I also make my own snack using fruit, Greek yogurt, chia seeds and dark chocolate instead of getting baked goods and coffee from outside (sweet cravings are reducing). I had a few bites of red velvet cake today since I went out for dinner with my family. I didn't feel like eating pizza (had a small piece) and had some bread and olive oil and shrimp zucchini fettuccine. I don't want to feel like I'm restricting because I'm not, I just want to feel like I don't crave junk food multiple times a week. I don't count calories, but I have in the past. It becomes obsessive and unhealthy which is why I no longer do it.

I walk a lot already which is great. Working in a lab and pacing around and having 2 dogs really helps.

Now the tricky part comes down to the resistance training and high intensity cardio. This is what sculpts my body. In 2020 I did 3x resistance training and 3x 20-30 min running in place sessions. In 2021 I did 2x resistance training and 1x HIIT. I'm not sure what the best approach would be. She refers to HIIT as resistance training though it's more of a high intensity cardio workout. I also don't like running. Her resistance training workouts are pilates inspired so they make you lean, toned, and flexible. And some workouts are challenging enough to work in a sweat which is what helps in fat loss. The HIIT workouts I'm not so sure how they are targeted for a lean physique compared to other HIIT programs (Fitness Blender).

My diet is looking better, I still walk a lot. How do I include the "resistance training" and "high intensity cardio" into the equation- I have no clue. As long as the resistance workouts are challenging and make me sweat.

Again my goal is to be lean and slim. I've achieved this in the past and did a great job. These workouts may sound simple, but adding them up together makes them a challenge which help in fat loss and learning out the body. I'm not the most physically active person, so maybe some of this trial and error can help me find an effective workout routine that I can do with my busy schedule and that I can enjoy and see the slimming results I want to see.

AGENT 8: DAMIEN

When Damien escaped from the Blender Subways (tm), my Agent 4, Link, found him and took him in under his wing. Link's family basically adopted him, but Damien grew to despise Link, because Link's special interests mostly revolved around military history, and despite it setting off flashbacks for Damien, Link couldn't stop talking about it around him. (Also, Link is the kind of guy who genuinely thinks anything that's interesting is above criticism, deep down... and that really bothered Damien as a former Octarian soldier.) As soon as he graduated high school, Damien went zero-contact with Link and went to a university on the far end of Inkadia. He successfully graduated with a degree in biology and is currently pursuing a master's somewhere.

Damien's quiet, but when he does talk, he's got a dry wit that some people really vibe with, and some really hate. But he can also be uplifting. He's genuinely honest, for better or for worse. He's come to terms with the fact that he'll never fully remember his life in the Domes, because nothing good happens to him when he does remember it, and no amount of therapy is gonna convince him it's worth it to try to get over it "properly".

I'm putting the TRON characters under a cut for brevity:

Yori isn't someone who really speaks to me TBH. She deserves more of a role, but she's trapped in being a side female character in an 80s movie, TBH. Lora's got a lot more of a role in the plot than she does. She's incredibly perceptive and smart, but one of the scenes that really characterized her well got deleted because... it was also the sex scene. Like, hardly a sex scene by non-TRON standards, but we all know the intent was there. Come on.

I really wish we'd seen more of her in later TRON stories. There's people out there who write her into Legacy and Uprising better than I ever could, so I won't try to shoehorn her into there. I really wish she'd made an appearance in TRON 2.0, but I understand why she isn't there? Not only does it not make sense for her to be there, since the digitization system has been entirely reworked (although she could have been on the antiquated system)... I also don't think a scene between her, Jet, and/or Alan fits the tone of the game at all. Great fanfic idea, but that side of the game would have to be beefed up a lot for it to make sense.

Where I think she could have fit better is Ghost In The Machine. I know I bring up GITM at every opportunity, but GITM faces that side of the Baines-Bradley family story head-on. It also doesn't completely fit the plot here - all the characters are people Jet (et. al.) are imagining from their memories of being in both the real world and the computer, and the version of Yori that would be there couldn't be the real thing. But maybe after they combine and wake up, Yori could... be... there... somehow? Okay, it doesn't fit here either, but just from the title, it should have happened.

I'm gonna start by explaining a couple of things on here. I don't think Rinzler needs any more or less angst. Like Yori, he's hardly a character in his own right, because they just don't... go into what makes him him enough for me to have an opinion on the matter. But I can respect a well-crafted antagonist and I'll say this: I think the amount of like, trauma/romance/whatever he has is appropriate for his role in Legacy.

Rinzler isn't a character I'm particularly opinionated about, but I will say this. I have a lot of thoughts about him that I've only ever expressed in private, and will continue not to post on Tumblr, because to be frank... They concern things that aren't Tumblr's business. If you've found my fics on ao3, you might be able to figure out what I mean, but I'm not discussing it here and will continue to not discuss it here.

I'll say this. I don't care how people write him, but I take issue with people making bold assumptions about peoples' mental health over like, how they write a fictional character. I've seen some of that in the Tronblr tags lately. People don't need to list their diagnoses to justify their opinions on like, some guy from TRON Legacy to anyone.

Anyways, thanks for the ask!

agent 8 rinzler n yori for the blorbo sheet🙏

I was dumb and checked my inbox in the middle of a cram session but remind me to do these when I get home in a few hours 💯

nah yeah i agree w this, mostly outside of some things and some smaller things like personal interps and headcanons bc. yea that changes from person to person *

*( eg him being walled off post incident due to being exiled by pallet town or maybe kanto in general / they just forgot about him and he slowly gets walled off and rots alone is a lot more narratively ironic and tragic to me ).

speak your shit i suppose, the worst that happens is i dont respond because i dont agree or because idk i just didnt have energy ( <- common ) . i might stop past this point though just to save my followers Huge ass textposts which i already make a lot of and bc im running out of things to say, but that also might be bc 6 am my energys shot and i have not gone to bed. something is, as usual, wrong with me.

and bc there is a line i have between 'personal interpretation(s) i have based on canon' vs 'canon' vs 'canon but it kind of sucks so i dont think about it too hard' that cannot really change for me. but handshake emoji bc yea similar ideas on stevens character

also yea steven feels like so many canon pokemon characters in a blender. AZ the most obvious, leon due to similarities, and like... alder ( unova champion, volcarona died, started wandering in his grief ) . All of these together can give you One (1) steven.

A LOT OF FUCKING TEXT BELOW.

i wrote this at 7:10 am and is mostly an excuse to ramble, not all points will be hit probably some will be hit multiple times i am very tired and dont have much more to add but i fucking love rambling about strangled red, strangled, how much doors open and the remakes suck, and what they mean to me

anyways - ironically i think steven is too selfish to let miki do it. steven wants to be the one to kill him, steven is the one to likely think that mike is a piece of shit and a bastard - and depending on your interpretation of steven, he mightve thought mike did it on purpose ( which im 50/50 on it adds some spice but needs to be written well ). he is the one who feels fulfillment from this more than miki to me, and his selfishness is kind of like... a part of him i dont see often explored like that?

like, he is so caught up in his own hatred and grief ( probably worsened by missingno ) that he doesn't actually really think about the fact he has miki back yet - like you said, he doesnt even really process it other than her just kinda being there now. killing mike feels like something he also just, has to do imo in his minds eye. because it's ironic and fitting to him, because he wants to, once again missingno probably not helping, possibility that he thinks mike 'killed' her on purpose, etc etc, bunch of reasons you could come up with ( i like their relationship being kind of strained pre-incident too - not abusive or anything just like... awkwardly Strained sometimes which wouldnt help ).

although him doing this is not the intention or implication intended , but theres a degree of separation i have between canon and Implied headcanon i have just based on actual shit ab steven - thats also just how it goes with a lot of creepypastas! good baseline, and a lot of implications you can draw from since theyre all really just short stories.

either way, like you said, steven never even celebrated miki being back much. he got her back and then just went straight back to him and mikes house. on foot. slowly, agonizingly, from the pokemon tower to pallet town, which is a uhhh. a Walk, for sure. guy with long ass legs. also why i like to think he paces a lot and just goes for walks when stressed as a headcanon bc.. lol.

or, maybe hes scared of something happening to her or just doesnt want her to do that idk but that has far less ground. i could see it as a shoddy additional reasoning as to why in his own mind but idk if hes mentally there enough to have too many second thoughts when hes pretty deep into . yknow. s!3v3n.

strangled red is a tragedy. steven was someone pushed into his worst, a town and region looking up to him and respecting him so much suddenly pitying him which he does not like based on the actual text ( to be fair he just turns them all down but i imagine he has some resent for being a legend turned into a pity party for all of the citizens especially since, yk, hes grieving, he wanted to be a role model and someone to look up to - at least in how i interpret it. he likely just wants to be left the fuck alone in his grief. misery loves company. but steven probably doesnt, because in my mind he would just like to slowly die from his own neglect so he could see her again. that mindset Would fuck you up and does which once again wouldnt help. )

writingwise, s!3v3n is fine in strangled. hes a videogame easter egg in context of the universe. i do actually like strangled, its a good and short little easter egg in-game styled creepypasta.

i once again just think how hes written in doors open isnt the best, makes no sense in like one case ( why the fuck is he talking about 2011 what the fuck was the angle here ), and is kind of like... i get the angle. he's just objectively not written as well as in strangled or SR, i think. or interestingly, i guess. he's just... yea. whatever. That is a guy that exists. as much as i shit on doors open i dont hate it existing because it is at least funny to see steven having a tantrum when you, dont have his fucking charizard? Because why would you...???? thanks steven.

this is due to me actually like rereading it. i have several times for reference but properly processing it is like... this isnt awful and i get the angle and approach. but it isnt good. It is Not good. i think the rest of the 'story' in DO just being confusing makes it stand out all that more which is prob why i specifically harp on s!3v3ns character sucking ass in it, especially comparatively.

bc yea. of course hes different in strangled red vs strangled or doors open. but hes better in strangled so its just... confusing. idk. no way to explain it in anything that doesnt feel like an excuse, and a lot of Doors opens weird contrivacies reek of 'this is like, clearly not written to be competent or entirely connecting with sr or strangled'.

and the story doesnt make sense and sucks. which makes his character suck because then all of his reason for doing the shit he impliededly does is out of the window. and smr admitting to it just being like lost silver crossover fanfic because he wanted to just yk. confirms that. has potential doesnt do anything with it which i dont expect it to its a 2010 story but damn.

essentially i dont consider it canon even if it was at a point intended to be because nothing in it is mentioned, makes sense, or ultimately... matters. it is write-offable other than any little interesting tidbit randomly mentioned in narration. thats really just it.

strangled does it much better with s!3v3n for me. doesnt talk too much, when he does its about miki ( of course ), and thats about it. also he isnt literally screaming in all caps, which to be fair, there isnt a win condition for his fight in strangled for him to have the ability to, but him like... yelling L I K E T H I S is more interesting. i sound insane talking about the smallest details of a pokepasta like this.

i think the way doors open fucks this up in my opinion is the fact his name seems to uncorrupt when you beat him, but then he goes back to talking about how much he wants to kill you. which... yea whatever hes a creepypasta villain. but then the bunch of numbers and. Yea. theres a lot of reasons people dont take doors open seriously outside of small details you kind of Cant when s!3v3ns talking about equations that equal 2011. mathematician ... Truly, what did s!3v3n do in 2011 . Other than. Be in doors open . sorry thats just still funny to me.

i do not disagree with the angle s!3v3ns characterization is going with ( hes kind of just insane and still losing his mind likely more than before ) i just think s!3v3n is a badly written tropey character compared to his more nuanced take in strangled red, which of course, are different periods in his life, but idk. and then strangled is also a good take to me. DO just is a flop. you can write an insane kind of power maniac who wants to take control of his life back and is kind of losing his mind at all times better. you can do it so much better. He is a guy with insane depression and so many fucking issues and seeing these issues explored would be nice.

strangled red once again did that but idk small examples of like... How unused his house looks maybe. how hes been dealing with everything, or, how hes failing to deal with... really anything. how is he alive? is he being kept alive? Is he eating shitty ramen noodles and drinking awful tap water? Who knows you decide ( its the third answer for me bc its funny and realistic ).

but once again, the trilogy was written backwards practically, so. you know. lot of it probably comes from that and 'slapping together shit that sounds cool sometimes so its literally just inconsistent Because of that probably'

although this extends into headcanons that draw from the text. which i love and prefer bc yea . this is a creepypasta written in 2011 .

idk i just wish he was more morally grey than an insane villainous trope. i wish it had more depth to it other than hes screaming yelling and killing people. his obsession with miki is fun but it doesnt really, go anywhere??? other than vague things.

i just think all in all, strangled red is character exploration and at most a tragedy - this is the most interesting exploration of stevens character, his transformation into s!3v3n, and leaves s!3v3n up in the air as to how he acts or really... you know, is post missingno, post miki-revival . it cuts to black before mike dies but its clear that he does. its clear that in the moment steven probably enjoyed it. did he regret it ? once again, up to interpretation. what did he do after? get exiled by pallet town because they were probably scared of him or slowly forgot about both of them! maybe the elite four wiped everything about him from the record? who knows! its fun to think about and that is all i ever think about, is the smaller questions like that.

anyways autism aside. to. more autism so ig autism not aside.

s!3v3n did not need to be explored or explained past strangled red, to me. even though... yk, strangled reds the last one actually written. which once again prequel syndrome makes things really weird because you write this guy and then hes crazy different in his two other stories which is, intentional but then just feels like an entirely different guy and hes. so shallow and one note and UUUUUGGGHGHHHHH dont get me started. and then the remakes do not do anything about this because structurally, they are very different, so they kind of cant, and hes so different in a still bad and tropey way.

hes boring.

hes fucking boring thats all . hes boring bland plain hes the same. hes a unique character to me, the depths of what you would do for your loved one in a time of anguish ( even if its a pet ), and then that gets dumbed down to being a similar trope when you can do... more. idk. i like s!3v3n conceptually a lot. i do not like canon s!3v3n at all solely due to the way he like... talks.

this is not going to change im sorry ive had 2 years to think on it it isnt doing anything interesting with it to me. i cannot care for him. any way smr will write him will not make me care for him given the direction in the remakes is similarly bad - it is basically the same flavor of s!3v3n as s!3v3n in doors open. i do not care about the canon implications or intentions of him in doors open and i dont think smr did either. its not really the intent or way its meant to come across it is solely just that the way its executed is the most... nothingburger thing to me.

Hes fine in strangled mostly because he like, makes sense there? short story, he doesnt talk too much, not much to fuck up. i like strangled, it's neat. doors open just kind of sucks.

again, DO is just not a good story and makes literally 0 fucking sense and has no merit outside of its little fun facts, so im gunna stop mentioning it . or going into detail ab it bc i made my point that Didnt need to really be made bc nobody really disagrees with 'DO is not really adding anything or a good story outside of a few cool things'

strangled red alone and strangled... as an extension ( or vice versa given release dates ) is fine and that was all that i needed doors open is just kinda. there.

this is disjointed as fuck because i cant really respond to these point by point bc i have to scroll a lot, but miki to me is emblematic of literally everything steven wants - yea, hes dependant on her. shes the way he gets kind of... anything. and shes very just- outright stated to be special. evolving early, being more resistant to her weaknesses, etc.

her being a sort of unique super strong charizard, her being how steven attained so much of what he did, yea i would go. insane over that too.

idk where to put this where it fits in more naturally i dont personally like the 'missingno/miki/whatever' needs souls idea. once again kind of removes stevens agency or a lot of the intrigue behind him straight up murking him if its implied that miki needs mike ( or.. souls i guess? ) to stay alive, and i think him killing mike due to him being in the absolute worse emotional state at that time + missingno is just fun to me. Fun in a morbid way.

missingno is its own whole Can, but it cant be more of a plot device to me other than passively driving steven more insane simply by existing, because its a glitch that is not supposed to exist and that breaks the game world and Would break you mentally the longer youre around it. if you give missingno more agency that becomes a character and not a plot device akin to a Deal with the devil thing which is a weird thing to do with missingno if not handled well. making missingno do more than revive and puppet miki also feels way too much. but that is personal ive seen good interps of botha these.

but thats a personal thing. i like to think missingno puppets that thing like a husk and that actual 'miki' is Not in there, or is but like barely ( a tiny wisp of life maybe ). not that steven really processes it.

i personally relate to steven as a character. this is one of the reasons hes like... kind of a coping character to a degree, alongside coming into my life around A Lot Of Personal Shit. ive related to him in my worst breakdowns or in intrusive thoughts or like... not anger issues but just the need to vent out rage sometimes. i understand him Deeply, i can see myself doing the same things as him in his shoes ( also why i project him having similar mental issues because. yea. Bpd ).

maybe not swimming to a wholeass island id die but you get it, especially given missingnos possible contribution ( even though its like... entirely fanon afaik other than some small bits you could get from implications i do like it bc yk its a game glitch of course that things going to fuck him mentally up worse than he already is simply by existing around him. )

either way, for personal interpretation especially on my blog specifically, i like to write him slowly mellowing out as time passes.

he just has to live with it. live with deep, debilitating depression, thinking about things, wondering where things went 'wrong', and wondering if miki even is like... her, herself. ( even if some people would consider this ooc, i think its a neat character exploration that when hes had enough time alone with his own thoughts and nobody else around to properly stop and think he begins to realize this- if he like, lives that long cuz him uhhh. killing himself would be in character to some degree though because imagine living like that jfc. just. not by fucking cop. but if he didnt... idk i just like modern era cryptid steven whos still very unstable but not to a murderous degree and hes just kind of really depressed along with other things. Guy who throws frozen pizza into his barely working oven or like ramen idk ).

guy who just becomes numb to his depression and The Horrors and lives life lying in bed wondering how he got there. tending to miki and barely tending to his own body at best.

also i think people understate how hard the society around him probably just fucked with his mental state too. of course he would not just Get Over miki dying if he got better care and therapy but. yea. some people just didnt talk to him after the fact! and all he gets is pity that, in my experience, makes you want to fucking die if you get pity from random strangers or people you barely know when you are having A Very Bad ( depressive ) Episode.

overall i agree with you, especially about people just seeing s!3v3n as like a psycho killer hot yaoiguy or whatever ( he doesnt even kill that many people and i dont see him as innately murderous, just often bad time bad place bad mental state ), which is boring and defeats the purpose of so much of his character, because you have to remember how he like... got there for a lot of the context. he isn't just that at all. i just had an excuse to ramble again LOL

kinda hard to write proper analysis about it given the way the trilogy was released and written and just bc i do read a lot about it but a lot of what i write for steven is. you know, far past everything happening. numb and depressed, too mentally tired to really go insane to the same degree, not processing a lot of what he did in the past and when he does he Tweaks ( s!3v3n ), etc.

i need to stop doing this and start actually writing the things asked for in my askbox . i will lock in some day. uhhh if you want more read my other, plentiful deranged rambles and headcanons about steven i dont want to rewrite everything ive ever written ab him bc id forget what ive posted and what i havent but yea

( fair warning; i do write x readers sometimes and that was the og purpose of this blog (still is but not all the time) bc i write steven in the context of like, hyplull interp where hes 18 and then it just expanded. so post incident post Every story ( or at least sr ) steven where he's an adult and the just kind of depressed existing in his house kanto/pallet town cryptid that just kind of is there and nobody mentions him bc its fun to write. )

tldr strangled red good i like steven . Did you gusy know i . Like steven and strangled red and his Tragedy and h. (coughs up blood, falls over and dies )

i didnt want to rb again bc. long ass post. but i dont personally agree with the 's!3v3n / steven was always evil' thing bc its such a boring character motiv. smr just is not good at writing s!3v3n ( in general but just in a compelling or interesting way ), and also strangled red was the last one written where he actually was like, sympathetic. the 'backstory/prequel' written last curse tbh. itd be nice if the remakes were just faithful rewrites so theyd fix this or make it a lil better but.. yk.

i think missingno did enable these thoughts but in the sense that it made the intrusive thoughts and his worse gut reactions and instincts grow and grow until he just, did them. you know like when you say ' i want to kill someone ' but you dont really mean it you're just really fucking upset at them and want to take it out on something physically or mentally but cant? things like that. it makes the violent static in your brain grow and grow until you act without thinking, i feel. just by its aura and by existing.

but i also think interpretations where its 'entirely missingnos fault' aren't great either because it removes stevens agency as a character and also makes missingno even more of a plot device than it already is - which isn't even bad in strangled red but it Is a plot device.

he still strangled mike even if he was coerced into it. did he regret it after or not care and double down? YOU decide!

( i know miki doing it is the actual canon implication and yk. literal canon as confirmed by smr, but thats also fucking boring and lame. killing your brother with your bare hands via strangulation goes so much harder and is more thematically fitting. Thank you hyplull for that interpretation god bless )

#long post #sr rambles #strangleds whole trilogy is not a story i can safely like in all of its parts without injecting a lot of implication and headcanon.#strangled red is fine. i like strangled. Doors open is not canon in my ultimate heart of hearts even if it technically is #its like the Strangled Red Spinoff to me . whatever a spinoff means in terms of... creepypasta???? ig??? idk #i will never fully agree with smr. even if its his character I Understand and think of him with so much nuance #The autism runs deep. Deeeep #once again the sendoff to this is read faulty on ao3 . is this joke getting old yet. its not even really a joke but like (%^#thats just The interpretation i have incorporated into my belief system along w personal hcs and some differences.
