A[]
- A Couple With Emotional Wounds
- Uzi's constant bullying at school and being the victim of child neglect with V's trauma.
- A Shared Suffering
- V and Uzi have been possessed, turned into eldritch beings, and used as Cyn's puppets. It explains why V was so intent on killing Uzi; she reminded her of herself.
- All Work vs. All Play
- Uzi is much more serious and hardworking than the laid-back and playful V. This doesn't mean that V didn't have her serious moments, however, like the moment she sacrificed herself to protect Uzi.
B[]
- Badass Gay
- You can't deny that both females are very badass and are the girl bosses of the cast.
- Battle Couple
- Uzi landing a kick to Doll and V delivering the finishing blow really adds to this trope. Their epic final battle with Cyn is worth noting as well.
- Belligerent Sexual Tension
- Do they bicker and threaten each other a lot? Yes, but that didn't stop them from rescuing and caring for each other.
- Brains and Brawn
- Uzi's practically a teen genius with her advanced knowledge in weapons and being the lead to debunking the Absolute Solver. V, in contrast, is a very elite fighter who was able to survive an entire sentinel ambush solo when others before her couldn't. However, both are very capable fighters.
D[]
- Damsel in Distress
- In Dead End, V rescues Uzi from her chains after both were held captive by Alice.
- Dating Catwoman
- V is depicted as an antagonist in the beginning.
- Dating What Daddy Hates
- Khan believes the Murder Drones to be a bad influence on Uzi, along with Nori becoming infuriated when she discovers that N, a Murder Drone, and Uzi hang out.
- Defrosting Ice Queen
- V gradually warms up to and cares for Uzi. This is a big step in her character considering she was depicted as a stoic, careless, and selfish person for the longest run time.
- Do You Trust Me?
- Downplayed. V's "final words" to Uzi declared her trust in her prior to sacrificing herself to the Sentinels.
E[]
- Enemies To Lovers
- Were sworn enemies since the beginning even without directly meeting each other. But with further progression of the series, they still were jerks to each other. It all comes down to a solid frenemy relationship once they realize they really need each other.
- Enemy Mine
- Uzi and V practically loved bickering and arguing with each other but they forge into a team to defeat the notorious AbsoluteSolver.
F[]
- Fate Drives us Together
- Their meeting was bound to happen considering V's home planet combusted and she was forced to fly to Copper 9 to destroy Uzi's kind. So romantic, right?
- Fire-Forged Friends
- If it wasn't for Cyn threatening dronekind and the duo collectively experiencing horrors and tragedies together, they would have never became friends.
H[]
- Hair Contrast Duo
- Uzi has purple hair whereas V has silver hair.
- Handshake Substitute
- Uzi was originally planning to duet a secret handshake with N, but she still made V a part of it despite the latter's discomfort.
- Height Difference
- With V's towering height surpassing those of the average drone and Uzi being the shortest of dronekind.

- High School Sweethearts
- V became a student in Uzi's school and watched the purple drone's class presentation.
I[]
- Interspecies Romance
- Uzi is a Worker Drone whereas V is a Disassembly Drone.
J[]
- Just Partners
- Started off as just teammates in defeating Cyn, but they gradually became caring to each other.
L[]
- Like an Old Married Couple
- These two just won't stop showing dislike towards each other, though it is more commonly shown by V (but they still like each other).
- Light Feminine and Dark Feminine
- More notably in The Promening, where V donned a bright red prom gown in comparison to Uzi's pitch black gown.
M[]
- Malicious Misnaming
- V did this all the time, calling Uzi "purple thing" or "Cyn".
- The Mourning After
- Downplayed. When V was confirmed to be alive after her sacrifice, Uzi expresses her gladness that she hadn't lost her, albeit very angsty-like.
O[]
- One Head Taller
- It's honestly embarrassing to see how short Uzi is in comparison to V's height that still isn't that tall compared to the average Worker Drone.
- The Only One Allowed to Defeat You
- As stated by Uzi in Absolute End, she refuses to allow anyone else to terrorize V after Cyn attempts to kill V.
- Outlaw Couple
- Though their crimes are far from petty, they still broke various laws such as murder, cannibalism, and beyond.
P[]

R[]
- Red Oni, Blue Oni
- V is the Red Oni to Uzi’s Blue Oni.
- Rescue Romance
- They rescue each other from life threatening events a lot.
- Rivals Team Up
- Depends on the context. Whether they're mortal enemies both intending to end the Absolute Solver or battling (obliviously) for N's love.
