Solvzi is the non-binary ship between the Absolute Solver and Uzi Doorman from the Murder Drones fandom.
Canon[]
Since she was an infant, Uzi carried a piece of the Absolute Solver within her due to her genetics from her mother. Her Solver hadn't been awakened until the events of the Pilot and further on. In the Pilot, the Absolute Solver's presence can be easily missed as the hints are subtle. During her battle with J as she was about to be impaled by bullets, her Solver awakens for a brief moment to repel the attack. It can be mistaken as J missing or a sudden unknown force blocking it. At the end of the episode, Uzi's eyes shift from purple to yellow for mere seconds. In those moments, text on her visor shows her Solver has been activated.
Heartbeat[]
In the second episode, Uzi's Solver is fully revealed. When she stares at a mirror at the Solver symbol in her eye, the mirror shatters. She gets defensive upon Serial Designation V mentioning it. Since the discovery of her newfound program, she sought to discover the origins beyond the creation of the Disassembly Drones. With Thad and Serial Designation N by her side, she travels into abandoned grounds of the colony when told Serial Designation J's corpse crawled away on its own. She is met by a mural of the Absolute Solver on a wall with engraved letters. She is interrupted by the presence of the Eldritch J, the former J being possessed by either Cyn or the Absolute Solver itself.
Uzi confronts the monster, who gives off vague hints of what it is and what its intentions are. In the climax of their conversation, the Eldritch J summons a hologram of Uzi's father, Khan Doorman, and kills him, making her believe her father was shattered. The distraction leaves her vulnerable and the Eldritch J steps in to kill her. If it wasn't for N, she would've not come back alive.
Cabin Fever[]
Since the events of the third episode, The Promening, the Absolute Solver becomes more and more awake within Uzi. With its increasing control over her mind, she descends into a monstrous state. When she accidentally mutilates an arrow shot at her into a squirming, organic mass, she runs off into the woods in panic. From there, she barricades herself in an abandoned cabin to consume a Worker Drone arm to subdue the Absolute Solver. Her efforts are in vain as her surroundings become more loud and uncomfortable.
She finally succumbs to the Solver, allowing it to take control of her body due to being too weak to stop it. She engaged in a massacre among her peers, killing and consuming most of them. The Absolute Solver pursues her to fight V when the latter defends against her. The Solver is put back to rest when N reawakens Uzi back to her consciousness.
Absolute End[]
Uzi engages in a heated battle against Cyn and Serial Designation J with the assistance of her friends, V and N. The Absolute Solver identifies as Cyn until it finds a new host, in which Uzi becomes the new vessel for it towards the end of the battle; Uzi manages to steal Cyn's heart and destroy it, revealing the Absolute Solver's conscious that takes the form of a black hole. When Cyn attempts to steal it back, Uzi shoves it in her mouth and swallows it, much to a shocked Cyn. Cyn melts into a pile of goop whilst Uzi dies to the core she consumed. Thankfully, her death was temporary and she awoke with new features, such as a partial yellow color overshadowing her original purple eyes.
Uzi is very pumped about being a "damaged OC", showing little to no concern over her new character. In a presentation with her class, she explains that the Absolute Solver's origins are still not solved and admits it would have been better to hide behind doors as originally planned. In the end credits, a scene showcases Uzi gloomily opening her locker in the vacant, eerily hallway of her school. Looking into her mirror, a quick reflection of what seems to be an Eldritch resemblance of the Absolute Solver appears before disappearing. Uzi is noticeably caught off guard by this, but her attention is quickly shifted to her tail that now bears the Absolute Solver's conscious in it.
The Solver puts a bow on her and comments she looks better with it, keeping bits of its personality as Cyn. Uzi scorns before shutting the locker, ending the episode.
Fanon[]
Solvzi is a decently acknowledged pairing within the fandom, though not typically in a romantic light. Many fanarts display Uzi in her Solver form to compliment the fourth episode, Cabin Fever. The ship can be confused with Cynuzi, the femslash ship between Cyn and Uzi, since Cyn was the original host and temporary identity of the Absolute Solver. In a romantic spotlight, the Solvzi pairing is more often than not interpreted as a smutship.
With the Absolute Solver's supernatural and grotesque control over Uzi, the concept placed ideas in fans for spicy content. The Mind Game Ship trope plays hard here; the Absolute Solver is the Hyde to Uzi's Jekyll, thus it has a profound effect on her mind and overall conscious when it feels the need to come out. The trope fuels what fans interpret as "spicy content" which enhances its perception as a smutship and or crackship. The toxic Unequal Pairing trope is widely popular in fan favorites for ship content. Most find the trope extremely problematic for its unhealthy and abusive properties determining on which pairing it applies to.
Applying to Solvzi, it forms an abusive, controlling relationship as program and host. It's often a fan favorite for "comshippers" in the fandom who find endearment in problematic properties in specific relationships between characters. AUs occur in which Uzi becomes the new "Cyn" for the deadly program, fanfictions interpreting the Canon divergence in their own words.
Before the events of the Pilot, the fanbase spiraled into theories regarding Uzi's mysterious eye towards the credits; the scene displays Uzi having a momentary, yellow glitch in her eye with a couple of small text. She laughs manically as she announces her plan for the future extinction of humans. People have taken screenshots of the short scene of Uzi's eyes to fully observe the strange factor. Before the Absolute Solver was revealed, it left fans to theorize. A consencous among the fanbase concluded that Uzi was becoming a Disassembly Drone.
They predicted her transformation was either affected by N's saliva, also the most popular theory, or assuming that Nori, Uzi's mother, was a former Disassembly Drone.
