#the steve saga theory

[shadow-genesis-yay]

Purple here with a thought I just had 🟪🎃

So we all know Nightmare was a normal Yellow Steve before absorbing a Red Steve, right? And we also know he did experiments in his castle (which in my opinion, could have been made a bit better but he probably just wanted something good enough to do stuff in so he didn't care for the quality)

Well, two experiments of Nightmare that Sabre, Lucas, and Rainbow encountered, were Positive and Negative Steve. And what were their colors? Red and Yellow. The exact colors of Nightmare.

Nightmare obviously has some connections to those two colors, and for known reasons. But why specifically did he try and make Positive and Negative Steve. He could use any other color to make hybrids, but he chose a Yellow and Red Steve to make those two. But for what reasons?

Did he want clones? Did he want a new successor other than Dark? What did he want, and why?

And what did those two go through? While being scared seems like an obvious reason to attack the Rainbow Town, Sabre and his friends never showed a threat to them. Did they attack out of fear? Jealousy? Control? What did they experience and was it why they attacked the town.

They also had a chance to become their normal selves when making a machine. But instead they chose to merge together to make Infinity. They could have been free as soon as they finished the machine, and maybe even sooner if they didn't attack the Rainbow Town.

What were their goals? Why were their goals that way? Why didn't they just escape or something? If they feared Nightmare, then they could have ran and asked Sabre, Rainbow, and Lucas for help. But they decided to attack, and merge themselves.

They had so many opportunities to be free if they had a hatred for Nightmare, that they never took. Even if they never wanted Nightmare dead, and just wanted to be away from him, they could have asked Rainbow and his friends because Rainbow's whole goal is to stop Nightmare.

Eddie is just trying to sneakily film a Tiktok of Steve complaining about missing another day of work despite the fact that for the better part of the last fifteen hours, he’s been down for the count with a migraine. Eddie barely gets any of his truly ridiculous rant because Steve’s moved on to talk about the commercial faintly playing on the tv.

The song in the commercial is 1985 by Bowling for Soup and Steve is like, “That was a good year, yeah?”

Eddie: …Weren’t you in a fire in 1985?

Steve: Yeah, but it was still a good year

Eddie: All those people died that summer

Eddie: And that was the year that your dad cut you off because you didn’t get into college and you had to get a job dressed as a sailor.

Eddie: And you got beat up and stuck in an elevator

Eddie: You hit a guy with a car

Steve: And it was still a good year! That’s when I met Robin.

[illusion-reality-steve]

Wait a minute, hold on, I know that in some of the In-Between episodes (pre Elemental's betrayal), Elemental seemed so confused sometimes when talking to Sabre. Elemental said that he got confused because he was functioning in a different understanding of time and continuity from Sabre.

But what if Elemental was actually just confused as part of the long-term consequences of his memory loss, just like how Galaxy is confused because of his memory loss?

Or even sadder, what if it's actually because Memory is still tormenting Elemental to this day? And every time we see Elemental confused when talking to Sabre, that was because Memory had recently attacked Elemental off-screen?

[bullbobb]

Im realizing that the reason cc!Sabre changed prof.red’s obsession with mushrooms to an obsession with salmon is probably because the mushrooms would’ve made it seem like he did drugs. Like if he was off the rails insane AND obsessed with shrooms…it’d raise some eyebrows

[honesttoglob]

Meta-overanalysis incoming: When Steve is listening to Weird Al on Foodtruck Radio in the season 1 supercut, he's listening to a Weird Al parody of his own backstory. And um. ????? Does the song UP exist in universe for Weird Al to have parodied it? Is Cup a Weird Al original and then Steve liked it so much he made up his own song based on the tune? Did Steve's backstory and UP come to Weird Al in a psychically-influenced dream but upon waking he could only half remember it and the plot didn't make much sense so he changed it to be about trying to get a solo cup at a high school party? Only Ian knows. And he will Never Tell.

[otter-pop-supreme]

So THAAAAT why they were dead. Honestly completely forgot the part after happened, don't think I ever processed that was the reason they were dead. If I did, I forgot. My brains gorilla glued to the rainbow town still.

I'm rewatching The Steve Saga because I remember that I never finished it-

BUT WHAT IS WITH THESE SOUL CRUSHING EPISODES?!?!

Like when origin steve was introduced Sabre and galaxy went to go defeat yeah THEY LOST GOT TRAPPED IN A BUBBLE OUTSIDE OF THE TIMELINE.

Sabre ends up in the spirity world and finds rainbow steve (I WAS CEUSHED DEAD THAT EPISODE LITERALLY HARMED ME. )

AND LIKE WHEN RAINBOW WAS LIKE "you know I can't leave here"

"How did you know I was gonna try and bring you out?-"

"Sabre.. how long have we been friends for"

MY HEART SHATTERED. IM SOBBING

AND NOW SABRE LEAVES ONLY TO FIGURE OUT HE WAS GONE FOR GENERATIONS.

He saw the purple steve in the spirit world and he realized he missed out on his adventure BECAUSE HE WAS AT THE END OF HIS JOURNEY. IM SOBBING.

Imagine going back to a world you thought would stay the same only to realize that the bad guy won and and and the world IS GENERATIONS AHEAD OF WHERE YOU LEFT IT.

this thing is CRUSHING ME

[cuips-not-cute]

Hi! Absolutely no worries if you don’t want to answer this but I read Idle Hands bc of your rec and I ADORED IT like so good and now I think I’d trust you to recommend literally anything so I was wondering if there were other steddie, or stranger things in general, fics you regard as must reads??

OH BOY DO I HAVE RECS FOR YOU!!!

first off, since this is about idle hands, let me also just recommend you everything else @teddywesworl has written. jas is a brilliant author with a blessed total of SEVENTEEN fics on ao3, you'll be eating well for ages. my favorites that i've read of hers are ofc idle hands but also the sihaw series, the vino series , anemone, he knows only two stories, 🪑, and dissonance theory. and a special shout out to deathsleep, which i have not read yet (crime) but only because i know it will totally break my brain when i do so i am waiting until i have a nice block of time with which to read, scream, cry, and eventually recover.

also, if you enjoyed all the wonderful weird formatting and all the bizarre things jas did with text in idle hands, which ofc you did, let me direct you to through each and every nerve and fiber, written by my very dear friend @laingley who is a master at wonderful weird formatting and generally very clever and entertaining prose and writes THE MOST adhd eddie i have ever read in my life. it's great.

i cannot make a rec list without rec'ing my beloved friend @lollaika's fic, the agony of a loving gaze, which will break your heart into a thousand billion pieces and then slowly, carefully stitch it back together. mind the tags, heed the warnings, but her prose is gorgeous and complex and wonderfully funny, and the whole fic really digs its claws into all of eddie's funky little mannerisms and makes them shine.

other fics i really liked/that helped shape my taste in steddie fics:

-the affliction of the feeling, an all time favorite.

-trouble looks good on you by the incredibly talented @steddielations

-took you for a working boy. it's so good.

-the steve harrington's unwilling time loop saga series

-the lathe

-and many more but i fear i could write this list all day and never finish, so i'll stop here. i keep my ao3 bookmarks public though, and pulled a bunch of these from there so there is more where this came from!! and my steddie fic rec tag on here is FULL of good stuff. if you like these recs and want more, please don't hesitate to send another ask. this was fun<3

[silvertws]

I never did an introduction post so here I am!

Now who am I?

✨It's a me, Silver! :D✨

I go by he/She/they with a preference for he/they :)

I'm Demifluid but I'm fluxuating into more masc stuff recently-

Right now if people ask my sexuality I say Ace and bi though there's probably more specific labels for my orientation... I do not care to find them.

I also just might simply be Aromantic in denial tbh.

✨ If you do any of the things highlighted in red, you are not welcome here. ✨

I'm Italian! Which means no romanticizing the mafia around me please. Ffs they melt kids in acid.

I don't support any kind of homophobia, transphobia, racism, anti-Semitism, MAPS...

And remember kids...

✨Trans rights are human rights! ✨

I'm a feminist, equal rights, equal fights, if you're an incel or a femcel don't bother.

I like complot theories as long as they stay as theories and you don't push them on people.

I don't support any bullying towards furries, therians, gacha kids, cosplayers... So if you ever plan on doing that, you're not going to do it here.

Sending death threats is not allowed.

I do not support genocide or war in general, because what kind of human would enjoy that-?! Side eye 👀👀👀

If you use religion as an excuse for your ignorance or to simply be a dick, get out.

If you don't do any of this, welcome!

✨ Imma summarize some of my opinions (about random stuff) using songs ✨

Vulture -> Bear Ghost (they are a really cool band)

I'm afraid I'll go to heaven -> Moon Walker

Don't cry for your daughters Eve -> Lydia the bard

GOSSIP -> Måneskin

Dear God -> Confetti

Thoughts & prayers -> Grandson

To catch a Predator -> Insane Clown Posse

Labour -> Paris Paloma

The Exorcist -> CALYPSO

Bears and Wolves -> Lilith Max

Make of these what you will. (No, I don't hate y'all. I hate hypocrites, the patriarchy, and the corruption of society.)

I like dark humor if it's actually funny.

Now onto the fun stuff!

I have been part of the gacha community since 2019, same with Origins, Country humans... Etc.

Any cringe fandoms, yeah, you can add those to the list.

My favorite ccs on yt are Pearlescentmoon, ZNathanAnimations, Manlybadasshero, FavreMySabre, Toiu, Neitirix, CaZaCoJa, IamCrusty... And many more.

Favourite characters currently:

Cal Kestis -> Jedi Fallen Order/Surivivor

Light Steve -> Ruined Reality

Rex -> Echoes of Arcadia

Dorian -> Critical Role

Seir -> The Chaos Protocol (did I write it right?)

Owen -> OutsidersSMP

Colin -> My Hero Origins

Now, if I were to post a complete list of all my fandoms, it would be around 120+.

So I'm not gonna do that.

To name some, Ib, Mad Father... And a lot of indie games of the same style, like, a lot.

I like mythology!

Anything Minecraft related is probably on the table, and a lot of different book sagas.

To name some, WOF (there aren't all the books in Italian so I only read the main story :(), Fairy Oak, a bunch of books from Licia Troisi, LOTR (I was devastated when I was told Tom Bombadil wasn't in the movies), Eragon... (We don't talk about the movie...)

But, my current hyperfixations are any kind of Steve story (so Ruined reality, The First Saviour, Ore Quest Prime...), Horror Games, BG3, Minecraft Roleplays in general...

I really like Star Wars guys.

I play D&D! :D

(send help my party is crazy)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So what will you find here❓❓

Well, I am an artist! I enjoy drawing and posting about it! I mostly do fanart because oc art doesn't really do well... But I will post some OCS from time to time.

I also write theories (I'm looking at you RR and Fable...) and rants or that one description of my MCYT Star Wars au and some art of that...

My favorite fandoms are Steve Saga related stuff, Origins crew (FTO,SNO,OOO,SNO,MHO), Star Wars, Fable/Mer/Siege... SMP... And many more.

I also want to maybe make fanart of those few Italian ytbers I still watch or am nostalgic about. Examples: Gabby16bit, Erenblaze, LyonWGF, (guys, the Failcraft, come on), Ratorix...

Sbriser- no not HIM. (What happened to you man? Tf is you doing???!!!!)

You will also find rants/comments on some of those fandoms!

Some oc art or au art from time to time and some random bits of lore about those!

I'm also a cosplayer...! I don't know if I'll post any of that here but my main cosplay is Technoblade and the basic Genloss henchman because I was matching with my friend who was Genloss Ranboo (check out mandydoodles on yt she's very cool guys).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

‼️DISCLAIMERS‼️

I want to start commissions but until I feel comfortable enough with my style I won't so don't ask me for now.

But if anyone asks for silly doodles to post about then sure lol, I like doing funky stuff.

If y'all got questions just ask.

English is not my first language so there might be some grammatical mistakes.

If I say something offensive just make me aware without sending me death threats or canceling me right away.

No guys, being on a different HOTD team is not death threat worthy.

No, liking the last Star Wars movies or the Acolyte is also not death threat worthy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And lastly...

✨ Be respectful! ✨

✨ Enjoy your travels through my treacherous blog adventurer! ✨

Yo Steve saga/RQ/etc. people- I have a discord server if y’all wanna join 👁️👁️ it’s mostly centered on my own projects, but there’s still art and general (and etc.) channels y’all can share art/stories/theories and stuff in. Lemme know if y’all want an invite!

[illusion-reality-steve]

I remember when the series first revealed that. I wondered if we would meet the character borrowing Void's voice in Steve Saga Origins! Honestly, I can’t imagine anyone else having his voice.

No but why has void canonically lent out his voice to other Steve's??? Like I'm not making this up right, he did say someone was borrowing his voice in the Steve saga-

[shadow-genesis-yay]

Alright, if any of you Steve Saga fans remember the episode; Visions of Disaster, you'd remember there was a echo-y voice, with a bunch of comments speculating who it was.

For those who speculate that it's Memory, here's my reasoning for it being correct:

TL:DR; With piecing lore together, Memory is the voice as all others with a voice aren't able to achieve it and/or are voiceless or dead.

First: to get rid of the obvious, no it wasn't a warning. It was a threat.

The voice said

-"No where safe" (Spoken through Rainbow)

-"No one can escape it"

-"You cant stop it" (Spoken through Rainbow)

-"You need to be destroyed"(Spoken through Rainbow)

+ more

These don't seem like warnings to me but i dunno ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So, it wasn't a good guy. It was a villain. Like Memory.

Now whether it was Rainbow freaking out or as speculated, getting possessed, I don't know. But with how sometimes panicking works, sometimes people repeat what happend.

Second: No voices matched up, even if voice changers were used.

The voices all have distinct and unique indicators, even with voice changers. We knew Hypno was voiced by Sabre, Origin, Galaxy and the Overseer voiced by Tewtiy, etc.

(sure we have illusion who people disagree on the voices, but thats different)

-future/past/present known voices didn't match up with those we heard

It wasn't a future voice, as Void's didn't match up with the one Sabre heard. Void's is deep, slightly echo-y but not by a lot, and sometimes has inaudible tendencies. The one we heard was crystal clear, more pitched, and more echo-y. It also wasn't Origin (no surprise.) He didn't interfere, and was voiced by Tewtiy.

It wasn't a past voice, as the only characters who would of most likely been able to pull the visions, was dead/at an unknown location at the time.

And it wasn't a present one as, well, come on you knew Rainbow and Galaxy couldn't do that. Plus Rain was freaking out about it more.

Third: Process of elimination of voices (Sorry if I forgot any)

Characters mentioned + explanations:

-Time Steve

I love Time, but he wasn't the one talking. He's canonically mute/voiceless, and uses chat. The first one Sabre met actually who used chat. If he did most likely have a voice though and prefers keeping it hidden or such, it would be more similar to Elementals. Especially with the British accent. They're twins similar to Positive and Negative, how would they not have slight similarities.

-Void Steve himself

I won't put it past Void to pull something like this, but his canon voice doesn't match the one Sabre heard. Void has a voice, and would most likely have a minion (Memory) threaten others before he did. Void was the mastermind, with Memory just being the puppet he worked through plan wise before getting reveled when Memory was killed. Sure this would technecally make Void the one who said it, with Memory repeating it, but Void more worked behind the scenes in terms of coming up with a plan to stop Sabre from helping Galaxy and such.

-Elemental Steve (for some reason)

I'd like to believe this, but no. Elemental was dead before this happend, and lost his voice to Galaxy at the same time Rainbow's changed. So no, it wasn't him.

-Nightmare Steve

I don't even know, but no. It wasn't him for once LOL. Bro finally took a vacation or something. Most likely working on unmerging himself as we see in a future video.

-Rainbow Steve (somehow as well)

Someone saying it's through his memories, but no, it's not. Rainbow didn't even know about Void, and the voice was talking about him.

We've also seen other mute characters suddenly talk. Faceless' voice is raspy and can blend with whosevers voice he stole, if any. Sure we may not fully know his voice, but we know part of it. It's raspy. Kind of reminds me of Pseudo from the 2015 version of Transformers: Robots in Disguise. They'd be great friends lol.

While I probably missed some, I'm not gonna scroll through a bunch of comments LOL. Especially since they're mostly repeating the same characters or wanting new steves introduced.

Anyways, by process of elimination, and piecing the lore together, I can say, it's Memory. He's just mostly quiet, and prefers to speak when he feels its right. Not shy, I guess. Just doesn't believe it's worth talking unless it's to Void.

Thanks for reading this long ramble <3

[morganbritton132]

Living for conspiracy Steve. You know if they tried anything Joan the Disservice cat would be on the case. You also know Diane clocked it during her looky loo walks and she’s got tea. An alliance is forming.

What’s funny about Steve’s paranoia with the electric company van parked outside is that it’s definitely just the electric company.

If SoMeBoDy would just listen to reason then maybe they might remember the bad weather they’ve been having. They live in a suburb just outside of Chicago. It’s windy and wind messes with powerlines, but Steve isn’t dumb. Thank you very much.

He knows that.

Just like he knows what logo Mike said was on the van that El flipped. And like he said, “It’s spycraft 101. Of course, they’re here after a storm. It’s inconspicuous.”

“Big word,” Eddie replies appreciatively. “How do you know that?”

“I took the SATs?”

“Now the word! Why do you think that they’re tapping our phones?”

“It’s in all the movies, Eddie.”

There’s an unspoken duh tacked on to the end of Steve’s sentence and Eddie kinda loves it. He kinda loves how confident Steve is when he’s convinced himself this shit is real and a little part of Eddie wants to play along, but he knows how quickly it can all go bad so, “Baby, please. Stevie, what are they tapping into? We don’t have a landline.”

Steve pauses to think and then peaks back out through the blinds. He mutters, “You don’t know how wiretaps work?”

“Do you?”

Steve just purses his lips and looks even harder out the window which is just Steve-speak for ‘no, actually. I don’t know how wiretaps works because no one does.’ It makes Eddie grin, sliding up behind him and whispering in his ear, “Don’t you think one of our half dozen nosy neighbors would’ve told us if someone was spying on us?”

“Not if-“

“Baby, Diane came over twice last week because she saw a suspicious car in our driveway,” Eddie hums. “It was our car, Steve.”

Steve relaxes back against his chest a little but he knows the battle is not yet won so, Eddie adds, “Sweetheart, think about it. They’d know.”

“That’s true,” Steve relents just a little and then says, “Unless one of our neighbors is a spy.”

“No, baby.”

“Like a nosy neighbor that’s always in our business,” Steve continues, building confidence. “And who has always been in our business ever since we moved in…and who is talking to the electric company people right now.”

Eddie looks out through the peak in the blinds Steve is making and watches as Diane makes her way down her driveway in her pink house shoes, waving at the man halfway up the telephone pole. She calls something up at him but they’re too far away to hear it.

He can feel Steve pull away and Eddie thinks, damn it.

“Well, that friendship was good while it lasted.”

[illusion-reality-steve]

This is a question mainly revolving around Illusion and an AU that goes on with him that I just thought up.

What if he isnt from Galaxies main legacy, as in his children? It would sort of make sense. He doesnt look like Galaxy or most of the children that Galaxy has- silver hair, dialated eyes, just being short in general. He doesnt even act like Galaxy, or any of the known Galaxy Family members. If he was a secret. Like a secret of someone who decends more directly from their grandfather/Galaxy-Void may have had a son created before he split apart?

rrff au illusion brainrot is setting in

That's a really good point! He doesn't even look like a Steve, and the fact that no one questions that he's a Steve or part of Galaxy's family could be another illusion in the works.

The theory of Illusion being a direct descendant of Origin Galaxy intrigues me, because Origin Galaxy is part of the Colors, who are the most powerful entities in the universe. And they can warp reality without anyone noticing. That sounds kinda similar to Illusion 👀

Thank you for contributing to the RRFF AU Illusion brainrot. May the brainrot never leave your brain.

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💗

Found this one in the depths of my inbox and I am ABSOLUTELY on board with playing this again! So here we go:

Really, the Steve Miller Au in general is a favorite. But if I had to choose just one... "Tips For Your Hot Date: Don't Take Her To A Waffle House" is really quintessential Steve Miller Au. So let's go with that one!

"Disproving The Love At First Sight Theory" was one I was kinda nervous about at first, because Trill is an OC and Jacen's personality is so made up he might as well be one. But a lot of people seemed to really enjoy it!! And I had a lot of fun. Especially with the Wingfeather Saga references

"Catch", one of my only fics for The Rookie, is honestly pretty great. Feels pretty in character, and while I never thought I'd write something like it, I'm very glad I did!

I lied. I have to choose another Steve Miller Au fic, and while it was ALMOST the one where Hera loses her memory, I had to go with "Kanan's Adoption Thing Supersedes Canon. That Is All" aka the fic where Kanan adopts Jyn. Thanks to Jedi Survivor it's probably gonna need a rewrite, but I still ADORE it

And last but not least, I really can't skip "This Is The Story Of How I Died", one of my all time favorites. Because Tangled is my beloved. But honestly I love ALL my fics

[slashtakemylife]

I am BACK rambling about Peggy's character because DAMN, even Bucky of all ppl managed to fck over her character and it only took one scene.

I dislike any interpretation of Peggy as evil or even secretly a nazi, that's a no, just NO.

Cap 2 made us well aware on how deep the Hydra infiltration was in SHIELD via Fury, he trusted Pierce, he even said he would've taken a bullet for him and Pierce confidently said he knew.

Fury, while shady sometimes, is irrevocably a hero and a good spy, the same would've naturally applied to other characters such as Howard and Peggy.

That should've been end of discussion, period but of course the What If 1988 Peter Quill episode happened and just in one scene, it got fcked over.

Now I honestly don't take What If to heart but it is technically canon realities and possibilities and technically they are the same core characters but in different circumstances that just happened to make one different choice or react to what that reality throws at them so what we see in there is easy to interpolate to the MCU timeline.

And basically, just for ONE Bucky CAMEO they decided to fuck over both Peggy's and Howard's character by having Peggy not only recognize Bucky with his full mask and eye paint, something not even Steve could do, but to also recognize that they knew or there where rumors that Bucky was alive and was the winter soldier and evidently did nothing.

This all for the quickest representation of the winter soldier saga with Bucky getting out of his programming merely by hearing Steve's name when in the movie and other iterations he needed much more, he fought Steve directly and I believe in the comics Steve had to use a cosmic cube to bring his memories back.

Fck even in the same episode Bucky is shown without his mask, Marvel's writers could've easily deleted the first scene and have Peggy and Howard recognize him when he took it off.

Which also why did he take it off? He's russia's biggest secret and he just showed his face to a bunch of americans, one being their direct enemies (SHIELD).

And furthermore, that episode wasn't even about him! It was about Peter Quill and an '80s rendition of the Avengers, Bucky's Winter Soldier subplot wasn't really necessary, they just wanted a very popular character to be in there..

Did I like seeing him? Absolutely

In fact I just watched that episode because of him, I went crazy when he showed up on the trailer.

What really bothers me is that for some time I've seen criticism of other people towards Peggy's character due to Hydra's infiltration on SHIELD and how they had Bucky under their noses but for me those were easy to swat since they were theories with no substance or any evidence other than implications and even the movie provides better evidence against it but in one line, one scene, they manage to hand over just the slightest hint of it and of course you know haters are going to pull it hard.

And they could've easily solved it if they showed they recognized Bucky when he took off his mask later in the episode.

I enjoyed that episode, I did, but I don't take it seriously, there's a lot of evident inconsistencies and you can tell it's rushed.

Firstly on why Bucky was handed over so easily, again he's the russian's biggest weapon and secret, it would've made more sense for him to be sent secretly and the team crossing paths with Bucky when he inevitably tried to murder Peter and being put to light by Peter himself instead of being neatly handed over to a bunch of americans

And how he was able to neatly and quickly reset to being Bucky or some sort of Bucky just by Steve's name alone, it doesn't make sense so naturally I don't take that episode to heart much but it is technically canon and furthermore it does taint Peggy's image a little, just before she's about to be made one of the biggest stars of What If!

I know Captain Carter and Peggy Carter from that episode are different but for fcks sake they are technically the same person but different realities and they smudged her character just to have a Bucky cameo, like seriously???? REALLY?!?!?

I don't know, maybe I'm just rambling but I do feel that yet again another male character has a say on Peggy's character.
