“It is never too late to talk, Ulquiorra.”, said Kaname “You are different from them.
That is what I can tell you… what I feel.” Kaname mistrusted every single one of Aizen’s arrancars. He knew that they were but a tool to play with to reach the man’s goals. Ulquiorra however, showed signs of utmost intellect and he needed to be FOSTERED and ENCOURAGED to reach new highs.
It was risky though, since they couldn’t let him get too strong. But Kaname seemed to feel that it was not in the arrancar’s desire to seek strength for might. It almost seemed as if this empty creature had no real goal and no real destination. Instead of sending him around like an object, Kaname found it better to teach him how to perceive life when one’s own inner life seemed to not exist. Ulquiorra would prove himself worthy of being a student and adapted quickly.
“You don’t need petty creatures to listen to you.”, he said and turned “They shall NEVER be the ones you turn to Ulquiorra. You need people who share that same emptiness, that same ideology and philosophy that you possess.”
〈 ⛧ 〉
these words being spoken by the one man
who’s sight stripped fromhim before birth —
he knows not of the quatro’s appearance,
yet he can see him like no others ever could.
his words he spoke with such solemnity,
they held meaning behind them.
not a script filled with ❛ praiseful ❜ word
of encouragementlike his creator always did ;
a pseudo tone aizen always held in his voice ——
despite his efforts, it could never compare to tousen’s.
❝ i suppose this is what i had hoped for,
though never expected.
i never found anyone, or anything for that matter,
that could truly understand exactly what harbors in my mind.
then again —— no one cared to listen. ❞
it was difficult simply ❛ opening - up ❜ on such a subject,
the espada knew not how to explain himself,
given he never had the opportunity such as this.
ulquiorra knew better than to interject
when aizen was giving his daily orders,
no questions or comments were allowed until
the assignment was complete ;
lest he expect repercussions beyond comprehension.
as a result, it always left the cuatro even more impassive than normal.
with a quiet exhale, his somber voice picked up at his superior’s response,
a sense of pure brilliance flowed through his voice.
❝ perhaps i became too desperate in my searches,
willing to accept anything that seemed relative enough to myself.
i understand now — for you speak purely of truth and wisdom.
i only ever desired to communicate with someone of intellect,
and speak of these hardships without the fear mockery.
—— i give you my utmost thanks ;
for while you cannot see, indeed you have opened my eyes
in such a way i never knew possible. ❞
( seeing as tumblr’s still not letting me reblog my threads correctly, might just edit shit —
kindaaaa wanna do a double or multiple promo thing maybe ? ??
also just for the sake of giving christmas edits or w/e tbh.
idk hmu if you wanna be promoted with me or something. B| )
❝ perhaps —— perhaps there’s something inside of me that desires to believe that. that there is some reason for living out all of this. something other than simply serving under and fighting for someone that isn’t myself.
but if they do care for me, as you claim they do, then i must experience such care for myself.
an experience that isn’t filled with intimidated words and cautious movements. no — not even i am capable of imagining such a day. .
Leaves Ulquiorra exceptionally tasting tea, the gesture inclined more towards bribery to do in the sexta than for any celebratory purpose.
relucatantly inspects the item left at his quarters with utmost caution, at this point, even seemingly harmess gifts are to be handled with extreme care — lest any more incidents occur on his birthday.
after further insepction, this particular gift seems safe, and actually something the quatro doesn’t mind to try later when things have calmed. he’ll have to personally thank the noveno once he sees him again.
"Well, well, that is a difficult task. But given that I suppose you are someone who likes to paint his face, maybe, I'd get you face paint. And if it's not that, how about some nice new clothing? I know a good place for fabrics! Of all kinds!" (Christmas gift meme)
Based on what I post, what would you get me for Christmas?
❝ ‘someone who likes to paint their face’. .oh my. i’ll have you know — taichou, these markings on my face are not handpainted.
athough since considering my fellow espada enjoy ruining my uniforms, new fabrics would do me so much good. ❞
skull here!
now this isn't exactly a rules / bio thing, i suppose a mix of the two?
just clarification of what's okay and what isn't, with a bit of "about the mun" thrown in here.
one, i'm semi - selective, meaning 80% of the time i'll follow you back.
it's absolutely nothing personal, i just don't like certain things about certain blogs.
two, i'm slow at replying things, i will reply but it'll take me some time.
just 'cause i'm not used to responding at such a quick pace.
three, i'm 20 - buuuut i'm selective with who i ship with.
simply for the fact of i see ulquiorra himself being selective, i would like someone who he can relate to and trust.
four, i'm female, but i don't fully identify as female. i always somewhat thought of myself as genderfluid.
BUT i don't mind she / her or he / him pronouns. literally either is fine - i don't really care, nor will i get offended whatsoever.
it is because of your heart
that you will die.
just a little insight of my blog and my reasonings behind everything !
let's b e g i n !
well first things first, no i don't worship satan.
contrary to popular belief, i'm catholic.
i know there are things on my blog that play on satanism and religion in general -
but i'm here to tell you the satanism i speak of isn't the kind where you sacrifice black cats and drink its blood or w/e.
so no i won't cast some black magic on you or anything like that, trust me.
if there are things that offend you -
well 1) that's somewhat the point of my take on ulquiorra,
& 2) don't be afraid to ask me to tag anything that pertains to religion.
i simply want to change things up and tread on sacred territory.
now i'm aware things look iffy on my blog, and there's a good reason as to why i chose the things i chose for it ;
one being it's all in the name of character development, or whatever you wanna call it.
since we don't get too much of an in-depth explanation of how ulquiorra acts
- besides his lack of emotion - i took it upon myself to change things up.
( lest i take the same approach and blend in with other ulquiorra blogs. )
i view ulquiorra as a heretic, meaning while he does believe in religion and such,
he has different opinions on it / what's generally accepted.
now since satanism is considered a religion - he still doesn't follow it.
i use the inverted star as a show of him being unholy but not satanic.
since his resurrección is murcielago, people see bats as unholy animals for multiple reasons.
i, again, use things pertaining to religion to change up my take on ulquiorra.
simply because it adds things to him that he was missing before dying, of course.
next; aizen himself has called and ultimately played ' god ' with the hollows / arrancar of hueco mundo.
that in itself is enough to view what he does as sacrilege.
SO - that leads us to why i see ulquiorra as satan himself, God's once favorite fallen angel.
we now aizen has favored ulquiorra over all other espada, for obvious reasons.
but there comes a point where i have ulquiorra question his creator, and his purpose in life, just as he did canonically.
thus enter the religious aspect, ulquiorra turning on his god and going against him,
just as Lucifer did to God Himself.
so i enjoy playing on this for the sake of having as much originality i can possibly get whilst writing ulquiorra.
annnd with that - i'll add more things here later!
