Fuck they were supposed to just be a crackfic idea but I think I'm in love with them now- (TWA time babeyyy)

@dracl-dragon

I think you'd love them too-

So one of the key plot points in TWA is that Trapped!Sabre is transformed into a real world human, presumably a mix of Steve Labs, Trapped Victor, and Reality Steve.

..HOWEVER. Recently had a dumb idea of Labs!Sabre deciding to do some Mad Science™ and fuse Labs!Rainbow with him as well. While Galaxy is still merged with Sabre, might I add.

I imagine Rainbow's sideways mouth is on Sabre's chest, and his left arm is turned into a weird, sharp pickaxe fleshy thing. Long and sharp, unlike Rainbow's usual pickaxe body. Rainbow's eye is possibly on his shoulder.

When Victor opens the machine, Sabre is half-conscious...barely able to think, except scream for Galaxy as Victor is about to grab him. Galaxy is...disoriented, to say the least. He's feeling all the same things (body-wise, I mean) as Sabre. He barely manages to cover Victor in cobblestone. Rainbow is significantly less disoriented (I have no clue HOW Labs!Sabre would manage to get him in there hah-) and is already Ready To Bite.

With Sabre practically a passenger in his own body, Galaxy and Rainbow coerce his body to move. Labs!Sabre is prepared to stop them, but Rainbow is already fighting back before he even saw them. With a swift motion, Rainbow pinches and slashes him, his thin, pointed fingers now weaponized. As they get closer, Rainbow tackles him, biting with bigger teeth than before. His mouth was now big enough to bite anyone who dares come too close.

Labs!Assistant Steve is mostly entertained by this, though annoyed at how easily his companions were foiled. As Victor clears away the cobblestone, Sabre's instincts kick in, and with Galaxy and Rainbow's help, they run out the door, stumbling down the hill. Ivy spots them at the bottom, having been spying on the lab alone. She pulls them to the safety of the group.

But what got me genuinely considering this as the version I write is a scene later on.

The three of them are resting now, under the watch of their friends. Rainbow still can barely speak a single word, and as he wipes away some blood on Sabre, he utters, "s-sorry...,protect..messy,."

Sabre laughs sadly, "sorry? Dude I should be thanking you! You and Galaxy fought back when I couldn't!" He's tearing up now, "sure, we uh...didn't make it out unscathed, heh..but we made it out alive! I- I don't know what would've happened if I were alone. Thank you both, for..trying your best anyways."

"Of course, Sabre, I was so worried when Victor came in, I- I'm sorry I didn't try to fight back sooner." "Galaxy, it's okay. I told you not to, it's alright..the machine probably messed you up, too.."

Also, have a stylized Trapped!Sabre doodle

Hehehe...oughhh I've finally found a way to integrate an old TWA plot point into the newest edition of the AU >:]

...I like to call it "the triple kill"

Okay it doesn't actually involve character death but kinda does-

So.

TWA!Sabre, the main Trapped version, is fused with TSS!Galaxy from the beginning, yes? Well. They first start off in TSS!Rainbow's first house. Aka where Shadow Sabre first came to be, and when Sabre accidentally drank Dark Steve's powers.

...yeah. So, from the beginning, Sabre finds Dark's concentrated powers. ...he doesn't drink em this time tho. Rather, a certain sneaky Steve steals the bottle :]

TSS!Shadow Steve takes Dark's powers and eventually reveals himself...much later on in the story. And then he runs straight through Sabre again, smashing the bottle on him (for added ✨️chaos✨️).

Sabre is immediately face-to-face with his mortality in a way he hasn't felt before. Last time, he could just switch accounts, smack his infected account around a bit, and be good to go. But what will happen if he dies now? It's the only way to get rid of the Shadow virus.

And as for Dark's powers, I headcanon that it leaves a powerful aura that makes an illusion that Sabre is Dark Steve, and that effects EVERY Steve. Meaning only the few non-Steves (Ivy and Francis from Trapped, for instance) can see the real Sabre. Galaxy isn't affected since he's still merged with him. The non-Steves still feel a very powerful, unnerving aura around him tho.

Shadow's infection starts in his heart, and once it reaches his arms...much like the og, it rapidly takes over. Perhaps it's implied that means he controls the "headset..." >:]

Anywho. Dark's powers feel and look like lava flowing in his veins. Incredibly uncomfortable, and looks even worse as his body slowly blackens into Dark Steve.

At the time, they haven't found TSS!Light, and he was the only one to successfully remove Dark's powers...so that's who they set off to find, as Sabre (and Galaxy...) fight off the invading Steve energies threatening to consume Sabre.

Because Shadow will eventually control Sabre, Galaxy has a backup plan to physically fight Shadow from within his mind. Because Galaxy was mentally stronger than Void... >:]

Man I really need to post more I haven't even shown yall the pumpkins- or the cardboard sculpture-

Anyways I'll leave you with this weirdcore version of trapped!Sabre

He is simply 👁 silly

Also his bracelets are from Francis and Ivy ^^

Oh that reminds me. Yall haven't seen my TR weirdcore au or various weirdcore Steve picrews!! God I've been lackin

[itsgirlcraft]

Good God that was mildly annoying on mobile but hEY I MADE A (mostly) ACCURATE SKIN FOR TRAPPED!SABRE!! :3

And the actual skin ofc:

It may not look that hard, but Trust Me, mobile planet minecraft's skin editor is Annoying As Fuck.

Had to use the desktop site bc I couldn't import ref pics in the actual mobile version.

Honestly, I'm not surprised there's very few mc trapped skins, I've only seen Ivy so far, and it was a stylized version at that. But eh make what you want to see in the world, yknow?

Ik his shirt's slightly off compared to the og but it's practically the same gradient so whatever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
