Wretched Hive
 Outcasts (5D's) (Fanfic) / int_40cbee83
comment
Wretched Hive: The Satellite is a broken-down slum of crime and poverty suffocated under a totalitarian police rule, with frequent conflicts between Security forces and gangs. Aki's first experience in the Satellite is her getting caught in the crossfire of one such altercation. In Chapter 4, Rex Goodwin's narration reveals that this trope was actually invoked by his predecessor, who dropped the city's criminals onto the island and perpetuated the belief that all Satellite residents were dangerous.

Combat Pragmatist: Everyone on Satellite is this, due to having to fight as hard as they can for any little advantage. It's pretty much a requirement for survival.

Nice, Mean, and In-Between
 Outcasts (5D's) (Fanfic) / int_5e965a73
comment
Nice, Mean, and In-Between: Yusei, Jack, and Crow form this. Yusei is the most considerate of others, the cool head of the trio, and always polite, even to Security officers. Jack by contrast is quite hot-headed and blunt, willing to do whatever it takes to get his way and ready to throw a punch over minor teasing. And while Crow constantly needles people to get under their skin and is quick to jibe at his friends and their flaws, it's never truly mean-spirited, and he's shown to have people's best interests at heart.

Trauma Conga Line
 Outcasts (5D's) (Fanfic) / int_71e8a5c5
comment
Trauma Conga Line: Aki has a pretty rough time over the course of the first two chapters. Long story short She awakens her psychic powers, promptly setting fire to her home and injuring her father with them. Instead of receiving any comfort or support, she's branded a monster by her own family and can think of no other recourse but to run away. She spends a full night running through Neo Domino, haunted by the name and unable to make sense of the world anymore. When she finally exhausts herself and takes a break, she accidentally falls asleep inside a shipping container bound for Satellite. Awakening in the middle of a battle between Security forces and local criminals, she activates her powers in a panic, hurting yet more people. Alone in a strange place, she ends up wandering endlessly until she realizes that she's in Satellite and spends the rest of the day just trying to get something to eat, dodging people who frighten her on all sides. Coming up short and wearing herself down to the point of exhaustion, she grows so desperate that she resorts to picking through trash, cutting open her hand in the process. Homeless, hungry, and tired, she doesn't even have the strength to cry herself to sleep. Did we mention she is only eight years old when all this happens? Thankfully, things do start getting a bit better after she gets taken in by Martha.

Adaptational Badass: Thanks to receiving proper emotional support and wellbeing from living at Martha's place, losing her Friendless Background in the process, Aki is more competent with her psychic powers than in canon. She learns to control her output up to a degree, and can manifest monsters without a Duel Disk.

comment
Police Brutality: As Satellite is under the rule of Security, this is par for the course, and not helped by Aki's dramatic arrival. Aki and the boys experience it first-hand in Chapter 5, accused of assisting local gangs with a raid on Security. All of them are slapped with false charges, with Jack and Crow getting physically abused for resisting in any small way.

Emotional Powers: While helping Aki train her abilities, the squad finds out that her attacks hurt much less if she's in a good mood - for example when Jack is set on fire he feels warm instead of getting burned. Aki sarcastically comments that she must Think Happy Thoughts then.

comment
Child Prodigy: Aki shows a lot of proficiency at Duel Monsters even as a kid. In her time at Martha's orphanage, she easily wins against everyone (including Jack) and has never been defeated. Jack dismisses it as her having better cards than everyone else, while Yusei points out that it's more on the skill of the duelist, not the cards themselves.

Wrestler in All of Us: Played for Laughs. After Aki runs away from Martha's House due to Jack, Crow takes it upon himself to put Jack in a full nelson hold the next time they find her, as to keep him away from her. Given that Jack is a good deal taller than Crow, it doesn't hold for long.

You Can't Go Home Again: Aki is subjected to this trope twice over. Firstly, it's because she thinks she's a monster and that her family doesn't want her home anymore. Secondly, she's accidentally shipped over to Satellite with no way to make it back to Neo Domino even if she did want to return.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Jack is seriously shaken up by Aki calling him a monster, especially since that was followed by their Signer marks activating. When he asks Yusei and Crow if they think he's a monster, he acts so quietly that Yusei actually loses his balance by how shocked he is.

Adaptational Angst Downgrade: Despite the fact that she ends up trapped on Satellite, Aki ends up making a lot of friends at Martha's orphanage and gets control of her powers much faster. This is in contrast to the anime, where she suffered a Friendless Background and her inability to control her powers was her biggest source of angst.
