Underrated character: Queen of spades from Alice in borderlands.

She gives me underrated vibes.

Hate me bro. But I like her so I don't care.

Otherwise she should have been given a better backstory or something.

Koori Ui: A child in Death’s playground

Koori Ui, the bright hope of Squad Arima, a prodigy in the realm of CCG and a trustworthy investigator. Our beloved Special Class Bowl-cut has sure went through a lot of character development, especially in :re, mixed in with a lot of suffering and losses and just a sprinkle of total and irreversible change in morals. But despite all the seemingly random events that shaped Ui into the character he is at this point, I feel that there was, and still is, a pattern in his path - a path embedded in death.

The following summary of his personal life-story is just to point out the cases of symbolism, heavily connected with Death, and to prove why I think it is not pure coincidence that he has suffered so much.

Let’s start with the list: (I adore lists xD)

1) Ui is very often seen smoking, which itself is the Death symbol. What is more, he has been associated with Taishi Fura, another prominent smoker and a prominent sufferer as well. The smoke of their cigarettes accompanied the arrival of the news about Arima Kishou’s death in chapter 98 (which itself was a chapter drenched with blood). Not to mention that the same Taishi Fura once gave Shirazu a “Lucky Strike” cigarette, and several chapters afterwards he received a not so lucky strike from Noro’s kakuja, resulting in his death. That could still be a coincidence or just far-fetched but Ishida-sensei might be as well creating a really good and subtle anti-smoking marketing campaign ^^

2) When Koori Ui is first seen in action, during the Owl Suppression Operation, he is introduced to us as Arima’s underling. The apprentice of the CCG’s Shinigami, basically a student of Death itself. Here comes the idea for the title of this meta, in my opinion, Ui has led his entire life as an investigator, being taught the ways of the Grim Reaper. However, he still does not have control over his future, which is why I called it “a playground”. Arima has helped him become the proficient killer he is, becoming a user of the Reaper’s scythe but still not fully aware of its powers. [SIDE NOTE: At this point I realised that his quinque Taruhi vaguely resembles a scythe, but maybe it was not intentional, because Juuzou’s quinque already possesses this motif]

3) In :re Ui is shown with his partner and good friend, Hairu Ihei. As we know, she suffered a pretty brutal death (despite her current confusing condition). But what is more interesting, is the fact that Ui was in the same operation, but arrived too late to save her. He walked his path of Death as a ghoul-killer and could not even mourn her end, because he had to carry on with his mission. Despite that, he reminisced about their time together and without even making one comment, the readers could clearly see that Ui just found out that death is not made specifically for his enemies, and that he will not be able to return to his previous state of being after experiencing such a loss. 

4) Ui did not only have to endure the tragedy of losing his friend and potential love interest, but he also got drowned in Furuta’s schemes - his belief that Hairu was resting at peace was shattered and he was shown a new page of Death’s book. He is now led by Furuta and his promises to revive Hairu, despite Ui’s apparent knowledge that the full restoration of the past is absolutely impossible. Because of his love for her, he accepts the faith in life after death, further extending his Death motif, now being fully immersed in fake promises for a happy future: a deal with the Satan, if that sounds good enough.

5) Recently in the series, after the revelations about Hairu’s remains, Ui arranged a meeting with Okahira, another person seemingly deceased during the Rose operation. Koori Ui is ultimately broken beyond reparation after he figures out that a person can in fact come back to life, even if this state isn’t exactly “being alive”. Okahira himself reveals that he does not feel like his past self and that Ui should give up on his hopeless dreams. This can be seen as an analogy of Death talking back to Ui after their several meetings. Death reveals that he would never have the power to control it, and that Hairu will never be back, at least not as she used to be. However, Ui’s desperation leads him to believe that Death, and by extension Furuta, is his one and only God, not being able to follow any other route but the one shown to him by CCG’s chief. There is no need for me to say that this boy’s life will continue to be full of losses as long as he is Furuta’s minion.

6) And a thing that is not connected with the states of life and death, but rather with the morals of Ui, is the revelation that he, along with many of the CCG investigators, has been ruthlessly killing humans behind clowns’ masks. The morale of all the investigators was lowered significantly, but Ui remained relatively calm. This is because, after losing so many people (Arima, Hairu, and Haise and Hirako that decided to defect) he is too desperate to care what kind of lives he is taking away. He has become a silent reaper, who complies to the orders and does not even worry to analyse the situation - after all, if he did in fact think about all the times he has murdered, he’d fall into the abyss and would not be able to return to his previous calm state. 

I hope you enjoyed this read and that you have got my point - that, according to me, Ui is cursed as a character to follow the path of Death and that he will eventually be engulfed in his position as a Grim Reaper. After Arima’s death, the Shinigami’s position is open, and as much as Juuzou is associated with Death himself, he walks a path, different from Ui’s. For me, after Hairu’s revival, Koori Ui will either lose his sanity and be turned into Furuta’s ultimate weapon of destruction, or will become absolutely heartless and lose all faith in the future, which will maybe make him defect the CCG and become a solo player. But whatever way the manga leads us, I hope he will eventually find happiness, because honestly, this boy deserves one big big hug :’)

Tell me your opinions and suggest new ideas for theories if you have enjoyed this one and till next time, folks!

Messy as hell sketches of Lieutenant Rogovets. He doesn`t look like himself a lot because drawing a character you have never drawn before is kinda stressful and result can be pretty... Meh. Especially if it`s sketch. Especially if certain character is similar to another one

Увага. Вперше за тисячоліття спроб і страждань над великими роботами, до яких я постійно втрачала інтерес, я презентую вам завершений фф, який писала ще з літа минулого року. Одразу попереджу, що доступ обмежено і прочитати можуть лише ті, в кого є акаунт (так, я вредна. Розумію, що не всім це буде зручно, але я все-таки вирішила це зробити задля свого комфорту).

Attention. For the first time in a thousand years of trying and suffering over big works I kept losing interest to I present to you a completed fic. I have been writing this since last summer. I'll warn you right away that I restricted access, so only those who have an account can read it (yes, I'm cranky. I understand it won`t be comfortable for everyone, but I decided to do it for my own good).

Kyouka <3

I actually love her sm guys<<<<333 she’s so underrated and amazing, she’s such a girlboss I love her AHHHHHHHH🫶🫶🫶‼️‼️😭😭

I absolutely love your writing❤️ and I would like to know if you could do a imagine of dating Frodo or something along those lines

***I struggled a little bit with this one, but I hope that you like it all the same :)! Lemme know if you want me to change anything! Also, I wasn't sure what gender you wanted me to use, so I chose gender neutral for this one. Lemme know if you want that changed as well!***

You'd always admired Frodo and became quick friends before he randomly disappeared for nearly two years. You never got the opportunity to tell him how much you loved him, and you nearly lost that chance. And now, you were starting to lose hope that he would never return.

You kept Bag End clean while he was away. And every day, you kept looking out the window in hopes that he would return. Just as you were beginning to lose hope, however, a knock sounded at the door, causing you to jump.

Your heart pounded as you slowly made your way to the door, praying and hoping that it wasn't the Sackville-Bagginses. They've been pressuring you quite a bit to sell Bag End, but you bluntly refused, saying, "This is still Frodo's property. No one is having it."

You grasped the handle of the doorknob and carefully turned it. You blinked your eyes multiple times, wondering if what you were seeing was reality or a dream.

There stood your sweet Hobbit that had been gone for a couple of years. He was dressed in luxurious clothing made fit for royalty, and you had to remind yourself that it probably was. The only thing that you noticed that was different, however, was his face.

He no longer looked innocent, jovial, or carefree like he once was. He now looked worn and tired. There was no longer that gleaming light in his eyes that was usually there every time he saw you. Instead, there was a look that troubled him. But his eyes did light up momentarily when you came eye-to-eye with each other, before his expression became weary again.

In an instant, you opened your arms out and he sank into your loving embrace, holding him tightly to you. He buried his face into the crook of your neck, causing pleasant shivers to go down your spine. You breathed in his familiar scent.

"Two years, Frodo," you breathed, hugging him tightly. You never wanted to let him go. Not this time. "For two years, you've had me so worried."

"I know," he mumbled tiredly in reply. "I'm so sorry. I would have told you what was going on, if Gandalf hadn't told me that I had to leave so quickly."

"You could have at least left me a note telling you what was going on."

"I didn't want to risk anything, y/n."

You relaxed, knowing that you couldn't stay mad at him forever. You broke the hug and he put his hands on your shoulders, giving you a firm look in the eye.

"How about I make it up for you. We can go on a little date tomorrow morning if you want to. I'll tell you my story."

You rested your forehead gently against his. You could see him closing his eyes at the gentle pressure against his forehead.

"Deal," you whispered in reply.

The next morning, you dressed up in a nice outfit -- one that you wore to Frodo's and Bilbo's birthday party the day before he randomly disappeared without a word. Once Frodo's eyes were on you, his eyes widened, and he blushed brightly in realization.

"Th-That's --" he stuttered as his eyes raked you up and down.

You giggled, smirking at him.

"I know."

The two of you went to a quiet part of the Shire in the woods, before settling yourselves down after spreading the picic blanket on the ground. He told you of his adventures as the two of you feast on your favorite breakfast foods.

Your eyes widened as he told you that he had been stabbed by a deadly blade that could have killed him. How he had offered to take the Ring to Mordor. And how he found the legendary creature, Gollum, who ended up siding with his bad self in the end.

Once his story was over, it was nearly late afternoon, almost time for Afternoon Tea. Your sweet Hobbit seemed relieved to get all the horrors he'd witnessed over the past two years, off his chest. And he now leaned his head on your shoulder in exhaustion. You smiled down at him.

"You have Bilbo's old book, don't you? The one he wrote?"

Frodo looks up at you in surprise, and furrows his eyebrow in confusion.

"Yeah?"

You smirked knowingly at him.

"Why don't you go ahead and write your story?"

***Yikes! Not my best writing ever, but I feel like it's alright. Lemme know if you want me to change anything! And thanks for requestiong :)!***

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FAVORITE HOBBITS!!!

Happy Birthday to my favorite Hobbit! (Happy Birthday to Bilbo, as well!)

Made some drawings for Lucy from DBH, because she is underrated and I would die for her!!! There's just something about Oracle characters that hits me so hard- a person burdened with knowledge, often seen as different or separate from their peers. At the root of it, however, Lucy is just another person (android?) with feelings and thoughts like everyone else. In the end, she is afraid and alone. Just as she had been throughout most of her time at Jericho.

This will probably get lost in the void, but I can't not stan
