Red text on pictures should never be taken seriously. I will laugh if you take it seriously.

This started as a long, biased, fangirl rant that was intended as something fun to read for UO fans while we sit and wait for Kubo to release the Espada from his matchbox. Then misora  suggested I post this here. But I figured it was too informal to throw out to the open and it might annoy people who ship Ulquiorra or Orihime with anyone else. This called for a lot of rewriting and reorganizing. But anything is worth it for my OTP <3

Most of the Scanlations come from Ju-Ni, with the exception of chapters 192-194, for which I used Manga-Rain.

Big thank-yous go to the lovely peeps over at the UlquiHime FC at Bleach Asylum, the UlquiHime LJ Community, and UlquiHime Baidu Boards (Chinese).

I am aware that some people find this pairing pure crack, and it does not have an inkling of a chance to become canon (even though we insist it is!). One is an enemy, the other is a main protagonist. One is a hollow, the other is a human. One serves Aizen, the other fights against Aizen. There is -no chance- these two can ever be together, right? EDIT (April 18, 2009) No, it's not pure crack. For the sake of PC-ness I won't say it's canon, but no sane person will agree that this pairing is crack anymore.

( That's why this pairing is so...fascinating )
