    Summary

    “Maybe it’s just my human half,” Ichigo said musingly, “but true soul marks—don’t they demonstrate some compatibility?”

    “Is it so simple? Rings—interlinked and perfectly round rings—have always stood for family. Everything else is open to interpretation. How many people would notice one of your cherry branches is broken or would think anything of it if they did? And that the moon isn’t a separate mark overlaid by newer but part of that one?”

    No one. So far. Or I wouldn’t kick myself every time I fail to wear long enough sleeves to completely cover the lower branch. That’s not really what I meant. Look, take ours for ease—we both have a zanpakuto on a wrist. We have a mark of our spirits on our forearm. Sure, it means we’re Shinigami close to our spirits but that makes more sense than approaching someone who has the same flower.”

    “Except that eighty percent of the Gotei has a zanpakuto, and at least one in ten has a mark from their spirits—it could be much higher, of course, if one submitted a questionnaire.”

    Ichigo rolled his eyes with a bit of a huff. “Kisuke. That’s my point.”

    Summary

    Ichigo, the man who took Kisuke’s crumbling self into both of his hands and pressed the pieces back together with a gruff sort of gentleness, dies.

    One night, alone for once in his childhood bedroom and far from Kisuke and the Shōten’s wards, Ichigo slips into sleep.

    He never wakes.

    To everyone else that feels like the end of the story.

    Because Ichigo dies.

    But to Kisuke …

    Summary

    Ichigo goes back in time, but he doesn't get to stay there. At least he has enough time to get some warnings out.

    Summary

    “You’re not alone,” he says. “Not anymore. You’ve got Inoue, and Ishida, and Chad. They’re all thankful to you – they all care about you. And me. Especially me. I… I guess I’ve come to rely on you.”

    There’s a long silence before Urahara turns back, his smile soft, and Ichigo feels something shift low in his stomach. “Thank you,” he says.

    Or: The long road of Ichigo and Kisuke's relationship is pockmarked by gifts, some worth more than others. Some worth more than Ichigo can repay.

    Summary

    Muramasa’s attacks on the Gotei 13 unearthed something that Captain Urahara Kisuke is determined to have for himself. A family. A very specific family in fact.

    Kurosaki Ichigo has more than enough to deal with, what with Muramasa being around and carving out a decent if simple life for him and his sisters. He’s really not all that prepared for a run in with a shinigami captain who then continues to appear in his life and shows continued actual interest in Ichigo and his sisters.
