Description I was re-reading Shinkuro (The Gentlemen's Alliance Cross) and it hit me. Not only the sudden urge to draw Ushio-chan (looks nothing like her oops), but I realized something. It was rather surprising, considering Mao-chan was always my favorite. Even when I read the Ushio-chan chapters for the first time-- I guess I didn't want to understand then?

Out of all the manga, and books I've ever read, I think I understand Ushio-chan the best.

I mean, if I could just have one person, and have them be at my side, I would be happy. I have no need to hear words like "I love you" or, "you're a treasured person to me", if your words have no actions behind them. I never quite paid attention to Arina-tan's comment about that, but it seems that in almost every way, Ushio-chan is someone I can relate to the most. I mean, I know what it's like to wonder why the heck you're still around and hate living, and I know what it's like to suddenly have someone pop up and make it bright and worthwhile. And then have that, too, crash around you. Don't bother if I'm not all you need! Or rather, don't say things like that if they're not true, you know? I may love someone dearly and need only them, but it's ridiculous to expect them to belong only to you. Although I plan to share, I don't understand why people say things that tie them to me when they have no intention of being together, or considering my feelings. That hurts, and it's cruel.

I'm jealous in a way, that since it's a story-- a shoujo manga at that, happy ending guaranteed, you know!-- there's someone like Haine there to help Ushio. What I'm saying is, I've never had someone stick around like Hainekko did for Ushio-chan, so I'm still very much stuck.

Ah. Well. But that's why I suddenly had to draw her, no matter what. It's funny that I'm drawing a character like who I am, at the same time as I'm drawing another picture of someone I'd like to have as a friend...

It doesn't look very much like her? Oops. Critiques are very much welcome. This is my first Shinkuro fanart! >w<

I ended up copying her dress from her Labyrinth shots. The uniform was too complicated/bulky for the pose. It's rather sparse isn't it? GAAAAAAH, long, deep rant for a WIP!!! EEKS.

Will re upload the finished one~
