featuring: kisuke, ichigo, chad, renji, ukitake and shunsui
contents: mentions of chronic illness
kisuke:
- he might not understand what's going on at first, and he'd be worried about you. he'd ask sooo many questions about what's happening when you have the energy to respond to him. he wants to learn what you're going through, and figure out how to best support you through it
- sits by your bed and holds your hand, assuring you that it'll get easier soon and that he's here to help you
- brings you food and water when you're not able to find the energy to get stuff yourself
- helps you formulate a plan to pace yourself during the day and not over exert yourself
- would try to create stuff to make life easier for you. he built something to help you keep track of your heart rate and other vitals so you know when to start taking it easier
- if you are experiencing body pain he will give you massages to feel better, and he would also probably try to create a medicine that helps ease your pain
- lays in bed with you, pulling you into his chest, he wants to comfort you and let you know that it's okay to feel the way you do.
- if you were having trouble with showering he would wash your hair and body for you. nothing sexual, just wanting to help his partner feel okay
ichigo:
- ichigo is a busy guy, he's always got something going on. but when you start to experience a flare up and he starts seeing you less it causes him to worry a bit. he asks why you haven't been leaving your house much recently, and if something happened. after you explain your situation to him he nods, trying his best to understand
- he isn't the most physically affectionate, but he's big on acts of service. he'd let you stay in the clinic, and bring you anything you needed during the stay
- helps you plan out what you need to do, and when to do it. goes along with you when you're too tired to do stuff on your own. high fives you when you check an item off your to-do list
- subtly brings it up to the rest of your friends, and has them become part of your support system too
- is strong for you when you cannot be strong for yourself <3
chad:
- he's quiet, and he sits and listens to what you have going on. he nods along as you explain your illness, and he asks if and how he can help you
- most of the time he sits quietly by you, rubbing your back or stroking your hair while you rest
- encourages you to get up when you can't do it on your own
- helps you stay caught up with school. he sits by you while you work on assignments and helps you with things you don't understand
- if anyone ever says anything disrespectful about your condition he is ready to throw hands with them. he does not let disrespect on his partner slide.
- he's a quiet, but strong support in your life, for as long as you need it, he wants to be there for you
renji:
- he's ssooo concerned and lowkey freaks the fuck out
- poor boy seeks out advice from anyone who will listen... "my partner is sick,. i think... really tired i guess? idk what to do.."
- he tries to help you get and stay out of bed, but he also understands if your body doesn't let you. he never makes you feel lesser than for it
- lets you stay in the squad 6 barracks with him so you won't be alone while you're struggling
- sosooo physically affectionate with you. peppers your face with sweet kisses and holds you tightly against him. holds your hand while you're doing stuff you need to do
- tells you that he's super happy for you everytime you manage to get something done
shunsui:
- loves to be lazy in bed with you honestly. he lets you nap on him for as long as you need
- because of his close bond with jūshirō he has a bit of an understanding of what's happening, but he asks the specifics of your situation
- gives great massages when you need it. he loves to have his hands on you, and even better that his touch can help ease your discomfort
- he's so sweet to you, and so gentle.
- if you're a gotei 13 officer he helps you get time off to take care of yourself. telling you that your health is important and that theres so many other people to hold down the fort while you're taking a rest
- gently encourages you to get out of bed a few times every day, even just to stretch your body a little bit
- if you're up for it he loves to go down on you.. talking about how the hormone release from an orgasm is good for you.. but it might just be an excuse to taste you
ukitake:
- also chronically ill, so he understands you.
- when he has enough energy himself he does what he can to accommodate you
- however most of the time he is also tired so that leads to good quality time laying together, mostly in comforting silence
- make sure you're fed and hydrated
- loves to bathe with you. a nice hot bubble bath that's comforting for the both of you
- he always wishes he could take on your sickness himself so you could feel better
Inspired by a conversation with my sis. Divider credit.
Kensei Muguruma
Watches your drink like a hawk, if he doesn't pull it closer to him he's got his eye on it at all times through his peripheral. The instant he sees a hand go near your drink, he grabs the persons wrist, possibly breaking it in the process, and then calls them out loudly in front of the whole bar. Then, if the person starts lying, he proceeds to beat the shit out of them, having to have security come break it up. The only reason he doesn't get kicked out is because he explains what happened and security finds something on the person when they search them.
Shuhei Hisagi
Much like his Captain before, he keeps a close watch on your drink. When he sees someone acting suspiciously, he puts his hand immediately over your drink before the person has a chance to try anything. One stern glare, and a firm question of "Can I help you?" might not immediately scare them off, but once Shuhei stands to his full height and eyes them dangerously they're running off. He tells the bartender who calls security to escort the person out of the bar.
Shunsui Kyoraku
I'm gonna be honest, he's probably plastered at this point, so he probably forgot it wasn't his drink and downed it before anyone had a chance to do anything to it. It's fine, when you come back and tell him he drank it, he buys you a new one.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi
He's the one doing weird shit to your drink, whether you're there or not. So you tend to finish your drinks before you walk away from him.
Akon
He'll watch your drink, but when he sees someone drop something in it he grabs it, locks eyes with the person who tampered with it, and drinks it like it's water. Being on Squad 12, he's probably immune to all sorts of shit, so he's unaffected. The person walks away, utterly confused and freaked the fuck out. Eventually he orders a drink, waits till no one's watching, then puts some new drug R&D is working on in it, and hand delivers it to them. If the person drinks it, they're going to experience all sorts of weird things till the drug wears off.
He replaces your drink when you get back.
Kenpachi Zaraki
Being completely honest, he probably started a bar wide brawl, during which your drink got spilled. You guys end up leaving before being kicked out. He promises to buy you a new one the next time you guys go out again.
If there'd anyone else you wanna see in this scenario, don't hesitate to send an ask!
Requested: No, personally wanted to write angsty fluff using the phrases: My first instinct is to protect you, no matter the cost. && I never realized how much I needed you until you weren't there.
Summary; You distance yourself from Ichigo in hopes your absence will go unnoticed when you're taken to Hueco Mundo... Ichigo's more perceptive than anyone gives him credit for and rescues both you and Orihime.
CW: implied that reader has been stalked by Aizen; kidnapped to Hueco Mundo; tiny confrontation with Uryu; Ichigo worrying; Ichigo is hurt but what else is new
Tears streamed down your face as you ran over to him, the man who had come to your rescue despite everything...
You had known that Sosuke Aizen had planned to kidnap you at some point... It was not a matter of if but when.
You had accepted that fact long before it happened...
You had accepted that when you went to help Ichigo rescue Rukia that he would see you... And you already knew whatever he was planning was not good. As soon as he showed his true colors to everyone... you knew it was only a matter of time before he was going to come and find you.
When you returned to the World of the Living, you had said goodbye to Ichigo and his friends, and had made a silent vow to yourself. You didn't want to drag them into anything, so you would begin to distance yourself from the others.
You saw them less and less, you basically dropped off the face of the Earth... However, unlike Rukia, though, you didn't just suddenly disappear from their memories.
It came as no surprise to you when strange hollow like men came to take you. This was the first time you had met any arrancars, and likely the first time they had come over to the World of the Living. You had accepted that this was going to happen and that there was nothing you could do to fight against it.
Fate had a funny way of reminding you of what you had left behind... Orihime at some point had been brought to Hueco Mundo and that was when you knew Ichigo would come to save her.
How would you be able to explain to him just why you were here? What would he say?
... Would he give you that famous scowl and tell you how stupid you had been for running off on your own?
The thought made you giggle to yourself, but it made your heart ache...
────────────────────────────────────
"The hell do you mean you haven't seen them since we got back?!" Ichigo growled as he gripped onto Uryū's shirt, leering down at him.
"I said they haven't been in class or clubs since we got back from the Soul Society. I don't have their number, so I can't contact them... I would think you would've heard from them, Ichigo."
"I..." His grip loosened as he began to think over the days since their return. He remembered saying goodbye to you... He remembered saying he would see you later... And... Then, what? His thoughts were racing through every face he had seen since then and none of them were yours. Not a single one.
"I gotta go," he spat out, letting go of the other's shirt and running off. He had to see you. How did he manage to let the days go past without noticing?! His jaw clenched, hands balling into fists and speeding up into a sprint towards your home. You were okay... You had to be okay.
The thoughts of you being hurt or dead made his chest ache and only made him go faster. Once he arrived, he quickly searched for the spare key you had. In his haste, he nearly dropped it before managing to get it into the key hole and slam open the door. He called out your name, looking everywhere within your home.
He was just overreacting, right? You would be in your room, curled up with your computer or a book and peek your head up at him... Looking confused why he sounded so frantic... Right? You had to. His hand shook as he reached for the doorknob of your bedroom, twisting it and pushing the door open.
But you weren't there.
His lower lip trembled as he looked around your room. The bed was made and honestly it looked like no one had been in there for... Well, it definitely looked like you hadn't been home much since your return. He gritted his teeth and slammed the side of his fist into the door frame.
"Damnit!"
Unfortunately, he didn't have time to even begin thinking about where you could be or what could have happened to you... The arrancars soon came down and he was thoroughly defeated. Then they came back and took Orihime with them.
As he was preparing to head to Hueco Mundo to rescue Orihime, something hit him. He remembered his conversation with Grimmjow during their last interaction.
"Hah! You're so dense, Kurosaki! All these people and none of you even noticed we've already taken one of your pals!"
His eyes grew wide at the realization, feeling like he was hit with a train.
"He wasn't talking about Orihime! Son of a-"
────────────────────────────────────
"You're such an idiot, Ichigo! You didn't have to do that," you sobbed out as you fell into the sands before him. He had gotten badly hurt during his fights... And naturally you blamed yourself.
"Heh, but I did... My first instinct is to protect you, no matter the cost." He explained, smiling up at you as Orihime began to heal him.
"That's stupid and you know it!" You whined out in protest, feeling a bit better now that he was starting to get healed. "I'm not-"
"Hey, none of that. You are such an important person in my life," he spoke softly and reached up to wipe your tears away. "I never realized how much I needed you until you weren't there..."
"D... Don't say weird stuff like that!" You huffed, cheeks growing warm with embarrassment. Despite that, you never tried to move his hand from your cheek.
"I mean it... It took me way too long, but, I love you."
"Y-... You're just dizzy from blood loss! Stop saying weird things when you're so hurt!" You could feel the steam coming out of your ears, heart racing and trying to turn situation to have less of a focus on yourself.
"Hey! I am not! I've been thinking about this since the day I realized you were gone! It's taken me way too long to realize it, but you know me... I'm not always the best with these sorts of things. I'm just happy I can see you again and tell you how I feel."
Before you had a chance to say anything, he had gently pulled you forward until your lips met with his. It was gentle and sweet and left you absolutely breathless. When he pulled back, forehead resting against yours and his hand still cupping your cheek, you felt a soft sigh leave your lips.
"You're so stupid... and reckless... and I love you too, Ichigo."
"Great, wanna go on a date after we defeat Aizen?"
He stared at you with a confused look for a moment, watching as you just began to laugh at his silliness. His expression soon changed to a soft smile, knowing just how ridiculous he was being. It was the first time in a while he had gotten to see your smile... so he didn't mind you laughing at him.
Fresh from my laptop! I adore Kyoraku and Ukitake, they’re definitely a couple in the anime/manga, but I can’t prove it.
This drawing is my headcanon about Ukitake’s questionable fashion choices (he bought this skimpy outfit for Shunsui from the World of the Living). I can see Kyoraku being amused and embarrassed (and horny) by it at the same time. Jushiro is a little cute freak.😌
Do you think soul society has a huge betting pool on where Ichigo will end up when he finally, properly dies?
Speculations range from Sokyoku Hill to beyond the last district of the Rukongai to the various biomes of Hueco Mundo to some place that hasn't been discovered yet because this is Ichigo they're talking about.
Summary: Cuddling headcanons, Nnoitra Gilga x s/o with a bit of angst smuggled in there ;)
Request: HIII!! could you by chance do nnoitra cuddling headcanons? perhaps with a smidge of angst with fluff 😗
A/n: hiii of course my friend!! <3 I've been busy with school and it's finally done sooo thank you for being patient <3 ALSO THANK YOU GUYS FOR 2K FOLLOWERSSSSSSSS! I LOVE ALL OF YOUUUUU!
Content: SFW. gn! s/o.
It's finally nighttime after Nnoitra and you have been going back and forth all day, arguing.
Both of you said hurtful things you said to each other, things you didn't mean, but it was just the heat of the moment.
You're the first one in bed, ignoring Nnoitra as he climbs into bed beside you.
He can easily hear the heavy, annoyed sigh fall from your lips and he rolls his eyes.
You're so stubborn, both of you are and eventually Nnoitra turns towards you, gathering you up in his arms.
You groan and squirm against his tight grip, kicking your feet at him.
"Damn it, stop!" Nnoitra hisses out into your ear, sending a chill down your spine.
You scoff loudly and stop struggling, the warmth of his body radiating onto yours.
His large hands slip under your shirt and rub against your warm skin, feeling you.
"Hey, I'm sorry," he whispers with a stern voice, pressing a harsh, but warm kiss to your cheek.
Your heart feels a bit more stitched up from his apology and you turn around, facing him.
Your nose accidentally bumps into his, causing the two of you to chuckle and giggle.
"Yeah? Me too," you whisper back, pressing a soft kiss to his soft lips.
Neither of you need big apologizes, arms wrapped around in each other and basking in each other's embrace is enough.
Nnoitra grabs onto your head and pushes it onto his chest, arms wrapping around you and giving you a tight squeeze.
You smile, nuzzling the side of your face deeply into Nnoitra's firm chest, hands sliding around his side and under his back.
Nnoitra rests his chin on the top of your head, hands gently rubbing your bare skin.
You're the first to fall asleep in the comfort of Nnoitra's arms as he lays there, grinning and enjoying the feeling of you sleeping peacefully.
Nnoitra's glad that you can fall asleep like this in his arms, slumped and lips parted open, soft breathes leaving them.
