#tss!dark steve

[illusion-reality-steve]

YOU FELL VICTIM TO ONE OF THE CLASSIC BLUNDERS. The most famous is never be the character who caused Hypno Steve's pained existence. But only slightly less well known is this: never go in against a Sicilian when DEATH IS ON THE LINE.

[incorrectstevesagaquotes]

Rainbow Steve: Your ridiculous family might be surprised to find that not everything is solved by murder!

Dark Steve: We would be surprised to find that.

[mariii-the-shapeshifter]

TSS!Nightmare for the ask game

First impression: Back in TSS's early days, it was all about the novelty of a new Steve type to Elan, so as far as character goes, there wasn't much to get a first impression of. Other than that, I kinda just wanted to know what his powers were.

Impression now: Sad old grandpa. The scene with the Red Steve in the machine actually made me so sad, and seeing him in the Spirit Realm with Rainbow moved me I'm ngl.

Favorite moment: His fight with Sabre sticks out to me for some reason. Maybe it was that one KiwiQueen animation from years ago. It wasn't as technically impressive as any of his and Rainbow's fights, but the scenery really did it for me, I think.

Idea for a story: I think there needs to be a fic about him trying to bond with Hypno in the Spirit Realm, but all Hypno wants to do is hang out with Rainbow. It would be funny. Maybe a little sad, but still funny.

Unpopular opinion: I still don't know how I feel about him having been Elemental's puppet for most of his screentime, since at no point was it ever hinted at, and I liked that he was just straight up evil. Ultimately, it meant he went to the Spirit Realm, which is great, but it makes his crimes less interesting to me.

Favorite relationship: Hard to choose. Honestly, Nightmare seems so closed off for the most part. We know more about how other characters feel about him than vice versa, but I like to think about how bad of a father he might've been to Dark. Obviously we have the scene near the end of Origins where he threatened to kill him, but what other stuff could we have missed that Rainbow didn't see? I also really like BeeFlower, but I imagine it to be completely one-sided. Nightmare did Eebs a favor; it wasn't his fault that Eebs decided to fall in love with him about it, unprompted. Then there's him and Elemental.. whatever they're dynamic could be, I am unable to comprehend it. They're something to each other. Something weird. Rainbow ends up being the one with the healthiest relationship with Nightmare out of all the ones I listed, which I guess is grounds for favortism since I like when things work out and people can be friends, but they're all so interesting to think about.

Favorite headcanon: That Red Steve he absorbed was his boyfriend.

[mariii-the-shapeshifter]

I can see Galaxy and Time wearing them for sure. Time introduced Galaxy and he really likes them even though he's bad at wearing them.

I can also see Dark wearing them since I imagine he's quite short.

Prof. Red has them even though he has nowhere to wear them to.

Alex had a pair from Origin at some point, but she burned them when they broke up.

Evil Elder Blue gives heavy stiletto vibes and I can't explain why. He wears them on dates with Nightm- [gets shot]

Rainbow has a pair that he's also bad at wearing.

Plague has a wardrobe full of stolen clothes, so he obviously has some heels in there, though he's a bigger fan of platform boots, specifically.

There's a hypothetical Elder Red out there that wears them. Trust.

Finally, SSO!Purple has a pair he wears on missions where he needs to steal something at some fancy event or whatever.

Very important who do you think would in the steve saga would wear heels

My bets on nightmare

[alaritheaurora]

au where after already running and being helpess and realizing this is JUST THE START Sabre decides to go to Nightmare Steve and pledge allegiance to him. "I'll do anything, be anything you want, your ally, friend, servant, just please keep us safe" He gets Lucas on board pretty quick, but Rainbow is much harder to convince, in the end Rainbow goes along, he totally doesn't trust Nightmare Steve, because he's a villain, but Sabre thinks it's a good idea so he'll try it. Sabre becomes bff's with Nightmare Steve and both kind of balance eachother out. Any Steve Sabre rescues becomes a loyal subject of Nightmare Steve, but Sabre has influenced him to not be absolutely terrible. Shadow Steve, Dark Steve and Shadow Sabre are all present during this and are just sat in total confusion as Nightmare Steve has tea with some chicken guy they were trying to murder a day ago.

A STEVE SAGA AU - INTERNET STAR ! ____________________

in this au , different steves get to be internet stars ! they can have huge fanbases that hang onto every word they say ^^ They get halos to represent that they're a star , with a twist ! these halos can have spikes on them . The spikes reference just how much influence a star has over the fanbase ! more spikes equals more influence , the sharper the spikes the more harmful this influence is !

____________________

THE CLASSES -

Fans | Haters | Stars | Celebrities | Managers

____________________

INFO -

FANS -

Fans are the base of all the stars you see ! They do not hold the most power in the ranks but without them , the system would not exist ! They help in boosting the popularity of stars , celebrities , managers , you name it ! They get a set of items that allow them to boost the reputation and popularity of stars , ranging between potions , blades and even sweet treats ^_^ They also have some varieties ! to put it short , there are:

stalker fans- These fans are obsessed with the stars they follow , angering them can result in a career going down hill ! They can change their class to be a hater

normal fans- These fans are , just normal ! Angering them isn't a good decision , but they'll forgive their stars eventually !

hyperfixated fans- These are fans that will love a star's content and create lots of fanart and the likes for them ^^

+ -----------------------------------

HATERS -

haters are the worst ! they will be horrible to any stars that do not please them , they are slightly more powerful that fans in terms of levels and sadly , without them the system would never exist ! they have items with them that help ruin a star's reputation and like fans , they too have a few varieties ^^ This includes:

irrational haters- They are , like I said , the worst . They will do anything they can to make a star's career miserable for no reason ! They will look out for any chance they can to shame a star , even if it had happened years ago and the star has been forgiven for it ~

justified haters-Their hate is actually justified and understandable , so long as they're respectful then they're not too bad ! Just , the star shouldn't be an actual bad person .

critics-I don't think I need to explain , they aren't exactly haters but fall under them .

x ---------------------------------------------------

STARS

They are internet sensations ! They get to have fanbases ! ... and haters , both of which give them a boost and make them somewhere in the middle of the power rank ^^ Many of them hold halos ! As I mentioned , they have spikes on those halos ^^ Depending on their influence , they can have either many or few spikes ! Depending on how harmful that influence is the spikes can also be very sharp or very dull . A part of their halos have a space without spikes which they can use to hold the halo and transform it into a weapon ! This weapon can be used to harm others ( metaphor for damaging their reputation ) or even kill them ! There are also varieties of stars , namely:

Vloggers-This type of star makes videos of themselves and how they live their life !

Artists- This type of star makes art and the processes behind it , they also give out helpful art tips !

Animators- This type of star makes art , and also animates it !

Musician- This star makes music ! Several genres exist but they all end up under musician !

documentarian- This star makes documentaries !

Gameplayist-This star makes gameplays !

*---------------------------------------------------

CELEBRITIES -

They are amongst the best , no seriously , have you seen their fanbase and their base of haters ?! They're huge ! They automatically get really spiky halos with insane sharpness , plus the weapons get extra deadly ! They have the same types as the stars but more extravagant , so I won't dive into that , but they have weapon classes like the stars do !

Whip- Yeouch ! if a celebrity uses this on someone , it immediately kills them and drives them off of the internet ! Easily the deadliest ! It's rare to find one of these !

Gun- Critical ! A quick kill ! The other person's reputation is now over ! It might be slow but it'll be painful , second most powerful in the series ! These are rare as well

Sword- Oh no ! A way to prolong someone's suffering before they eventually leave the internet ? what a monster ! the third most powerful in this series , an uncommon

Grenade-Quite the bomb shell , no ? This is a quick one but it's common , sorry !

A bow- Yeesh ! They won't see that coming ! But they might , cause that's a common , babes !

Oh an a bonus for those celebrities that are more popular than the others , they get their own customized weapons ! awesome , right ?!

? ---------------------------------------------------

MANAGERS-

Oh boy , they're at the top of the hierarchy ! Jesus cheesus , they can ruin your reputation with a single message , no weapon needed ! But if you happen to be a star or celebrity managed by them , they are all you need . There are no classes or divisions , everyone that's a manager has no face nor any defining features on social media ! Quite the enigma .

Dark Steve!

Hallo!

We interrupt the ongoing program to show of art I made! I proudly present: My rendition of Dark Steve! :3

There was a poll quite a while back to decide which character to draw next, if anyone remembers, lol. And the result was Mr Darkimoo here!

Also, I stole a Pinterest base to help with the pose, whoops-

[cavedweller1st]

When ur so silly about a character that you paint them

REVERSE, MY BOY

[alastyr-not-alastair]

Every time I get hit with art block I just start drawing Steve saga and it usually brings me out of it

I would have loved to just finish this today but as you can see in the top left corner it is almost 4 AM

Enjoy the wip tho

[bullbobb]

Time: “he’s my special princess”, I say as I hold up the most basic white man to ever grace this earth (Sabre)

RQ!Rainbow: dw if I die I will still haunt the narrative

Elemental: friendly reminder. I am not suffering. Do not ask if I am fine. I am.

RQ!Time: crumpling under the weight of two unanswered texts

Dark: why does Jesus get so much credit? I also came back from the dead.

Sabre: do you like men?

TSS!Time: man is a hopeless species. I don’t like much of anyone

Sabre:

TSS!Time: oh if you meant sexually than yes

TSS!Elemental, Asuka-level glaring: yknow, your father stabbed me for being a homosexual

Memory: homocide. You attempted to kill him

[amybizarre]

(Forgive me father, for I will yap-)

I have a headcanon / theory for this! Pos and Neg are twins and Nightmare either adopted them as his kids or is related to them in some way, shape or form that would also render them his kiddos! Which would explain why they attacked the town: Revenge!

However, that does not explain the giant explosion we saw in Nightmare's dungeon that one episode. My excuse for this: Maybe it was an accident? Maybe during some experiment or exercise sth went wrong and Pos (or Neg, we don't know for sure) experienced some sort of power outburst. But he didn't want to hit Nightmare, who was most likely also there, so he directed this outburst at the wall instead, making it look like they tried to break out.

I could continue yapping about them and the family dynamics in the Nightmare Palace, but I don't wanna yap too much at once. ^^;

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.

[illusion-reality-steve]

Alright, probably unique idea; What if both dark steve and the demon steve returned in the illusion arc

Since Dark Steve has experience with running a pigmen army in the Nether, it might be interesting if Dark Steve uses Demon Steve or the Spiritless World to cause trouble. It might even tie in some lore from the Blue Steve Saga.

Wait, omg, Dark Steve is a shapeshifter too. He and Illusion Steve might confuse everyone by pretending to be other people. Imagine if Dark Steve pretends to be Illusion Steve, and visa versa.

Thank you for the ask!

[incorrectstevesagaquotes]

Dark Steve: I’ll never talk! 

Rainbow Steve, sharpening knife: I have ways of making people talk.

Dark Steve:

Rainbow Steve: [cuts a piece of cake]

Dark Steve: …Can I have some?

Rainbow Steve: Cake is for talkers.
