well here we are kids back with more hiei/yukina swap that will apparently never leave my systempls read for the details because i know that second image is extremely confounding:ok so since 2013 when i started drawing yukina in hiei’s role as fighter, it was still too tricky for me to try to figure out what role hiei would play, outside the ring, if yukina had the jagan/black dragon. a few days ago it finally all came to me at once.hiei as a nonfighter would still have some demon-world survival technique, in this case, money and information. so he’s kind of a connoisseur of weird expensive objects and he’s actually a very rich smug little prick and the team can’t really figure out if he’s trustworthy, even deep into their relationship with him (a detail i like about hiei in canon)at their initial meeting, he’s already made quite a name for himself in the black market mostly selling his own family’s Tear Gems, which he has no shame in toting around to make a quick million. he still steals the zombie-sword from King Yama, but instead of using it, he just sells it. I’m thinking Yusuke still tracks it down and gets it back, but the important thing is, hiei is arrested for being a thief and does service to the Urameshi team for time off his sentencealthough he’s on the sidelines of the dark tournament he provides a wealth of information and resources about a lot of the tools and weapons used from the opposing teams. He also has very mild ice/healing powers like yukina but doesn’t prefer to use them.he knows Yukina is his sister and I’m thinking with the Jagan she knows he is her brother. as of yet I haven’t really figured out how they mesh. But i think this hiei is very cautious of her and knows she’s sacrificed a lot while he’s profited handsomely off his family’s tear gems. I think the ice kingdom they’re from is still all-female and they’re still twins, but they were BOTH rejected from living there because hiei was male and yukina had fire powers.The difference in hiei’s story is that he shamelessly sold his mother’s Gem right off the bat and just rose in fame and power from there. Yukina fought tooth and nail to stay afloat and find her brother and now that he’s found she’s seeking to become even stronger. or i guess that’s what i’ve vaguely figured out anyhow.for the record every other character is basically the same, including kuwabara still liking yukina and getting huffy with hiei (but who wouldn’t.)well now you know what I think about while I’m at workhere’s a little bonus comic of Dark Tournament timesyou can tell me what you think or send questions or anything i will talk about this au for millenia -- source link
