#Yudokuna

[crimsonlyinglilly]

Day 2 Sweat  

A little late for day 2 whumpril and we're back to my Bleach AU-Shared custody.

AU summary- Uryuu was taken by squad 12 members alongside Souken's soul on the day he was attacked.

Uryuu does something reckless, knowing he'd lose, someone catches him.

----

He knew he wasn’t going to win, no matter how dangerous Soul society saw him as it was against three captains but he hoped he could have given Tatsuki some time to flee with Rukia, since she was the one this whole plan was set for.

Instead the moment he had started released his Shikai everything had gone black when Cap- Tosen appeared behind him unsealing his sword. If Tosen thought the pain from the cuts he inflicted was enough to stop him he really hadn’t bothered to read the file the monster was quite fond of rereading to Uryuu as if he could forget the months of experiments before Yachiru freed him.

So Uryuu skipped Shikai and broke his own rules, releasing Yudokuna fully, even if he couldn’t hear his own words, they did.

“Bankai. Spawn and consume all, Yūdokuna.”

Yudokuna let out a gleeful laugh before it scattered into numerous smaller ones.

Later he’ll thank the black nothing of Tosen’s dome that allowed him to adjust as his awareness was split into fragments instead of losing control of himself like he had the first time.

‘Feast, feast, feast’ their voices echoed through his mind as they started to spread from him and eat at the traitor Captain’s Bankai growing in size as they did.

“What the-?” the captain’s shocked words reached him moments before the black vanished.

For a moment he was frozen as he was hit by the sudden light and the many points of view from his fragments, Tatsuki was on the floor alongside Renji and the one he would guess was Ichigo making him wonder if he had been trapped there longer than he had thought.

He throws himself out the way as his views from the fragments warned him of Tosen’s attack.

“Interesting.” Azien smiled at him, Uryuu bit back the urge to hiss as Yudokuna’s fragments trembled, something was wrong, they had never felt at ease around the bespectacled captain but he had thought that was just because sometimes the man looked at him the same way the monster did, like he wanted to dissect him.

This was different, this was more that discomfort, this was fear and he had never felt fear from his other half before.

Before he could do anything, even summon his bow, a flash of light aimed for his face and blood and black returned to consume his vision, this time with burning pain.

He choked on a scream, tasting copper as he reached with his hands to cover his face.

Warm blood covered his hand, Ichimaru had blinded him with a single cut from across the ground, he realised what had happened even without seeing from the fragments point of view.  

“Gin.” Azien scolded, as Uryuu swayed, he hurt he had never lost his sight in the lab, he swallowed back terror as he found himself returning to that helplessness.

“Sorry.” the other chimed, not sorry in the least, Uryuu could hear the grin in his voice.

Uryuu stumbled, from the pain, terror, bloodloss and a wave of sickness, he swallowed back as he recognised the feeling of poison and Yudokuna increased her own potency to overwhelm Ichimaru’s.

Another slash from behind, warned as he was by his fragments but unable to move, sent him to the ground, he felt the fragments attempted to retreat to him but they wouldn’t make it before Tosen finished him off, it was a shame he thought, he was so close to see father again.

The blade was stopped and for the first time Uryuu was glad at the sudden appearance of the stealth force.

 —-

Uryuu’s tightened his grip of his blade as the three traitors vanished into the sky, it was only Yudokuna’s fragments that meant he could still see what was going on so he fought to keep himself awake and his Bankai released.

Even if their vision was only in blue and purple.

Blind from Gin’s slash, his own poisoned reishi consuming the captain’s and deeply aware of the sweat coating his body, Uryuu found himself longing for Isane’s cooling touch or Yumichika spare cloth to wipe some of the grime away.

Still it was easy to lose track of time as he used the fragments to heal the more minor damages to his body, the cuts from Tosen mostly. He wasn’t going to make an attempt on his eyes, the last thing he wanted was to make his eyesight worse while attempting to reverse his new blindness.

Two of the fragments were attempting to reshape the Reishi from the ground to repair his glasses.

“Uryuu.” the low voice called him from his brief daze that he flinched as he realised who was suddenly within hands reach.

Father the word doesn’t leave his month even as it fills his mind, it had been years and he had fear, hated father when he was taken but-

He slumped sideways into father’s arms, even as part of him screamed not to let down his guard, father was in danger, he hadn’t be in the lab he could still be saved.

The broken look in father’s eyes when Uryuu had found him standing over mother, had haunted him, he had left him alone. 

“I��m sorry.” he sighed as the hand not holding his blade, scrambled to grab at father’s clothes unthinking of the dirt he would be staining the no doubt white fabric, even now with his father under his hand he wanted to see him with his own eyes to check he was real.

Year apart and he suddenly wanted to be that child agains before mother’s death made father cold, and the lab broke and remade Uryuu.

His last feeling before he lost his fight to stay awake was father wiping soft fabric across his face cleaning blood and sweat away.

—-

“Foolish child," Ryuuken breathed into his son’s hair, longer than he had ever let it grow, but it was still Uryuu, his son was in his arms, nothing was going to get him to let him go again. "You have nothing to apologise for.”

[caveofwanderers]

"With that little brat and his oh-so big sister out of the way, I can finally act unabated."

"Though I shouldn't be too complacent... I still gotta deal with the other pawns on the board, and who knows if they actually survived the little cauldron trip."

my beloved

[fuckyeahvalidation]

I’m gonna explain some things

So if you follow me you’ve seen my two posts about my bnha self-insert and that I’m gonna cosplay her soon, but what you might not know is why. So allow me to explain why I show my self-insert it on here.

I have a chronic illness. My chronic illness is Irritable bowel syndrome or IBS. IBS comes with many symptoms which can range from nausea to constipation to cramping and bloating. This is a chronic illness that I’ve struggled with for a better part of my life with the symptoms starting when I was 8. 

I hate the symptoms that my IBS brings to the table mostly nausea. So when I was trying to come up with a quirk (my OCs power) I went through a handful of ideas before it hit me. 

Make her quirk your IBS. 

I gave her an acid/gas quirk. One that spills out her mouth. Overuse causes burns to the throat and only her stomach can contain the acids, but still, the damage is done to the stomach not much though. The acids and gas that she holds aren’t normal though they range from gases that can put you to sleep to being able to kill. 

Though that idea came later for the range and specifically which kinds of gases and acids she can use. 

When I first made Yama Yudokuna I had the idea in mind of taking the one thing I really hated about my life at the time and turning it into a superpower of someone who was aiming to become a hero even though she’d been told her quirk was suited for a villain.

When she was born the gases spilled out her mouth almost killing her parents, the nurses, and the doctor before they contained her and made a special gas mask (almost like how people born without limbs are given special prosthetics and get bigger ones as they grow)

Yama is me and honestly making her has helped me love myself more with this chronic illness that I face daily.

[decompositionenthusiast]

Once I get a drawing tablet, it's over for y'all

[cozycornergamin]

Gonna cosplay my OC Yama and then eventually Deku when I can get his wig and contacts!

She usually has a gas mask on but I left it at my bf's house 🤷‍♀️

TFW you make a team of SI OCs (that you and your sibs made years ago) for Ander Arias’ Son Of the Sannin because you love the fic that much.

Left to right: (with spoilers for Son Of The Sannin below- (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12186367/1/Son-of-the-Sannin

Mai Karada- orphan+ surrogate daughter to Iruka, taijutsu and fuinjutsu specialist, Fire affinity and komodo dragon summoner. Extroverted, cheerful, emotionally sensitive to others moods, tries very hard to keep morale up, secretly has shit self esteem.

In her pervious life, she was killed in a mugging and so takes self defense and becoming stronger very seriously.

Tsukiko “Tsuki” Okami- lives with grandparents and is an unknown Hatake clan bastard, genjutsu, summoning/transformation and kenjutsu specialist, dual Lightning+Wind affinity and wolf summoner. Withdrawn, cold, anxious, paranoid needs to be/feel strong, feels like she’s weighing everyone else down.

In her pervious life, she was killed when a truck crashed into her bus stop and she is terrified of dying because of a freak accident again, to the point of paranoia.

Daiki Yudokuna-- maternal cousin and later adoptive brother to Sakura Haruno, ninjutsu, medical and Kyūdōjustu (archery) specialist, dual Water+Earth affinity and barn owl summoner. Mild, gentle, analytical, prone to over-thinking, chronic workaholic and desperately wants to protect his loved ones.

In his previous life, he died due to illness and therefore is incredibly conscious of health and is the whole reason he devotes himself so fiercely to medicine.

These three met when they all went to try and find Naruto only to find him playing with Hinata and all responding the same way when Naruto declared he’d become Hokage (awe and the realization that the character who saved their lives and motivated them through hard times was before them), the three became fast friends and supporters of one another.

At first all three are beyond relieved to have Naruto with friends and family with Jiraya and Tsunade back in the village. But when the Uchiha Insurrection happens and kills Daiki’s mother while scarring Mai, all three are traumatized and realize that they have no idea what is going to happen. The three clung to one another harder and began to train constantly to prepare themselves for an unknown future.

Their eventual sensei, you’re asking? Zabuza Momochi, as part of his parole. The squad is terrified and excited/elated, and Zabuza often wonders if the Hokage knew just how batshit bizarre these kids are and assigned him as their sensei as punishment.

[fierytwins]

One thing I feel should be said is the fate of the League members, excluding Muscular and Moonfish as those two are just plain murderers.

The League does get saved, in a way. Just like Toga was allowed into the Hero Course, Dabi, Spinner, Mustard, and Shigaraki are also in it, while Compress, Magne, and Twice are going through a different program meant for vigilantes to get them certified as Heroes.

Mustard, who's real name is Yudokuna Busujima, is not technically old enough yet to enter UA. But he has a secured recommendation from Midnight, who also took him in as her own son after his situation with his parents came to light and was nearly as bad as the abuse Toga endured. While not forced to suppress his quirk, Yudokuna was mocked and bullied relentlessly for having a villainous quirk that he wasn't even safe from himself. Midnight has shown far more love and compassion for him in the month he's lived with her than his birth mother had shown in all his life.

Spinner, or Shuichi Iguchi as he's also known as, would have gone through the vigilante program, but had insisted on going to UA. In his own words, 'I know many of the students have the spirit of true heroism in them. I'd be a fool not to walk the same path as them, to help them continue becoming the kind of heroes Stain would entrust the future of the world to'. Shuichi was put under the guardianship of the Asui family, as his quirk had the same limitations and downsides as the family's frog-like quirks. Despite his worries they would not accept him, the Asui family welcomed him with open arms, with Samidare just being glad to have an older brother finally.

Tomura, or Tenko as he's going by again, along with his older sister Hana(who in my canon didn't die but instead temporarily lost her arm when Tenko grabbed her but survived thanks to her own quirk stopping the damage at her shoulder and re-growing the arm, leaving a rough scar around her arm up at the joint) are being watched over by Inko Midoriya and Toshinori Yagi, effectively having been adopted by the greenette mother. Inko always was a bit of a bleeding heart, so Tenko's story really got to her. Toshinori felt as if he had to be there for Tenko as well, as this was his mentor's grandson. Tenko himself is secretly a bit glad to be given this chance, and is slowly being more open about it thanks to Izuku presence along with Hana's.(To those curious, I made Hana's quirk be the opposite of Tenko's. So instead of destroying whatever all five fingers touch, Hana's quirk makes it grow. Given how it works, it was given the unfortunate name of Cancer, as it causes cells to divide in a fashion similar to cancer cells. This doesn't cause the cells to become cancerous though, as long as she keeps focus, so she is a very effective medic in the family. And yes, she did offer Toshinori to help heal most of the damage AFO did. He's still skeletal, but at least there's no more coughing up blood and he has some stomach now.)

Dabi was unsurprisingly released into his family's custody. The reveal that he was the believed deceased oldest brother Touya obviously made waves. Natsuo and Fuyumi asked him so many questions on how he survived and why he never contacted them, Shoto was just speechless, Rei was happy to see her eldest son again, and Enji? Enji, to the surprise of his kids especially Touya and Shoto, was crying. That's when he let it out, all the things he had wish he would have told Touya all those years ago, the things he should have told him if he had been stronger emotionally. He let his son know that he was sorry, for how he had treated him while training and for the way he had tried to make Touya stop continuing that reckless training. He knew words wouldn't fix the mental and emotional scars he had left on his eldest son, nor could they excuse what he did. Enji knew Touya wouldn't forgive him, not yet at least. All he asked, was for Touya to allow him to prove through actions that he would do better by his son. Prove to all of his family he would be a man worth being proud of. Touya's anger at his father was mostly extinguished thanks to his siblings telling him how their father had still trained Shoto, but was far less brutal about it. It was still grueling and intensive, but at least he was not letting Shoto hurt himself. Something Enji notes as him learning from how he failed to train Touya with that same compassion a father should have.

Jin Bubaigawara, while not having a foster family like the younger members of the League, is assigned as an assistant to Eraserhead. Or at least, that's how official documents have it. The program Jin is in was meant for vigilantes to become licensed heroes. As most vigilantes were active at night, most of them became underground heroes like Eraserhead(An underground hero is one that stays out of the spotlight of the news, and generally do their job at night when crime is ore frequent. They can be seen as the opposite to action heroes like All Might, who fight crime in the day where the news crews have more likely to cover the fights). Jin's quirk makes him very handy when it comes to laying traps and ambushes.

Magne also is documented as one of Eraserhead's sidekicks with Twice. Unlike Twice though, Kenji took a lot more convincing to accept the deal. She was a woman that wanted to be free to do as she wanted, so when Aizawa told her that underground heroes are basically able to make calls without needing to worry about consequences from the Hero Commission, so long as they just kept up on the paperwork all heroes had to do, it wasn't hard to believe she accepted. Kenji also sometimes makes appearances at UA to cover for Aizawa whenever he's called out during a school day. To say 1-A is excited when Big Sis Magne's heading up class would be an understatement.

Atsuhiro Sako is the third member of the League taking part in the vigilante rehabilitation program with Jin and Kenji. Unlike those two, Atsuhiro is under the supervision of Thirteen, as he is aiming for towards rescue for his end goal. His quirk is very helpful in rescue attempts, as compressed rescue targets are stabilized for the time they're in the marble, and his previous uses while part of the League show it can help reach those trapped easier. Atsuhiro is also a showman, so the underground life just did not suit his tastes.

Kurogiri is the only League member not going through rehabilitation. That is because currently, his mind is being attempted to be fixed. Upon Eraserhead and Present Mic being left to handle getting Kurogiri's cooperation, they made a startling discovery. The friend they had thought was long dead, Oboro Shirakumo, was alive right in front of them. This lead to what is happening to him now, an attempt to repair Oboro's mind and get him back fully. Only time will tell when he will be better. If he will get better.

AMOW 4. "Monster! Monster!" / Caged

Day four of AMonthOfWhump's March Trope-a-Thon.

Elijah gets a break, as I return to Bleach and Shared custody.

AU summary- Uryuu was taken by squad 12 members alongside Souken's soul on the day he was attacked.

Tensions and events in Seireitei led to Uryuu facing his past.

---

Uryuu’s hands pressed against the glass, attempting to use the cold feeling to ground him against the growing panic, he wasn’t sure how or why he had ended back here.

He had noticed the new members of the squad two that had appeared after the attack at the gate, likely to watch him in case he showed any sympathy to the ryoka.

Which itself was stupid, and a waste of manpower, after years he had spent following their rules, healing their people, the only person he would side with was father and he was too smart to risk coming for him.

Uyruu had long learned to smother the longing wish that he would come, if he did it would just lead to the last of his family dying likely in the same place he was once again trapped.

But none of that explained why he was back in the glass case that had served as his cell in the earliest months in soul society until Yachiru had found him

It was meant to be shattered, even on the times he had been forced back to the lab ‘for checkups’, it was never there. The monster had gleefully shown him his new cage if the head captain decided to return Uryuu to his care.

“Let me out.” a child’s voice pleaded suddenly cause Uryuu to jump and turn around the child that hadn’t been there.

As he stared he realised the child shouldn’t possibly be there at all as he found himself looking down at his past self. He hadn’t notice how much he had grown until he took in the fact his younger self barely reached his chest height.

Uryuu froze as the glass vanished for a moment as a hand with long black nails appeared to grasp his younger’s arm and ripped him from the case with ease.

“No, no no, let me go.” the boy screamed in panic, and Uryuu struggled to swallow around the lump of terror that climbed his throat.

“So picky and here I thought you wanted to come out.” the monster grumbled to himself ignoring the desperate movement from the boy he was dragging towards the table.

Uryuu’s breath failed as he heard the voice and his lungs hurt, begging for him to take a breath but he couldn’t, he was stuck watching as his worst nightmares was suddenly playing in front of his eyes.

A syringe appeared in the monster’s hand and with little care entered his younger self’s neck taking what little fight he could put up, Uryuu flinched, the days without Nemu was alway worst she always used a little more than necessary, giving him a little escape from the pain and horror.

He looks so small when the monster places him on the table, screams lost to quiet whimpers, useless pleas and desolate crying.

Then he notices the woman standing behind the scene isn’t Nemu, as she sees his attention she smiles at him growing taller from the lieutenant’s height to her normal towering stature.

Yudokuna.

It takes him a little longer to realise what was different from her normal appearance, Uryuu stiffened as red-gold eyes met his blue, her golden mask was missing leaving her eyes clear and the usual markings around her eyes were open, giving her eight to his two.

She stepped away from the ease in loud echoing footsteps walking towards the glass he was still caged in, all three pair of her arms visible and unhidden for once  

"Monster! Monster!" The remains of the child he once was whimpered from the table and Uryuu wasn’t sure if it was still stuck in the nightmare facing the monster that had taken them, killed grandfather a second time on that table and  taken him apart, or was voicing thoughts about the appearance of the other half of his soul.

She had hidden most of her spider traits when he was younger showing them more as he grew, he had found comfort in them, spiders ate butterflies.

“Wake up. ” she whispered, as she laid hand on the glass above him, the golden tipped nails scratching the glass, the sound filling across the room and covering the whimpers from his past self.

He woke up, throwing himself up and away from his bed to take a deep breath as he took in the difference from the dark lab and his daylight lit room.

Now he remembered; he had taken a nap to prepare for the chance he’d be called to deal with any injuries caused in squad 11 after they had announced an impromptu party/brawl after Captain Ichimaru had beaten them to the gate.

It was a dream he told himself as he took deep breaths, just a dream, it was obvious now he was awake but trapped in his mind it felt so real.  

His Zanpakutō spirit materialised beside him leaning down to look at him with concern, mask lifted up to sit more like a crown over her hair but only looking at him with her normal two gold-red eyes..

Before she could speak a crack interrupted them and they looked up out of the window to see the sky above Seireitei away. He watched as the barrier broke and something passed though holding for a moment before it broke apart and started to fall to the ground in pieces. 

‘Not pieces’ he thought, ‘groups’ as he could pick out different reiatsu of seven people.

The thousand voices started hissing in his mind as he fled their rush of excitement and Yudokuna’s concerned looks was slowly overtaken by a wide smile showing off her sharp fangs, the markings around her eyes started to open again. 

He reached out to pull her mask back down to cover her face.

“Not yet.” he warned her, they had too much attention on him to do anything at the moment but even as he spoke he couldn’t help the growing uncertainty as he noticed something achingly familiar about one of now falling ryoka’s reiatsu.

It couldn’t be.

Father?

Tomorrow should be a return to Elijah, the soulmarks AU and a lighter fill.

[caveofwanderers]

{also while I got the makers awakening too, I also got another OC I'm finally properly fleshing out from the blazblue neck of the woods too}

[theghostsofmusemarket]

Dokuno Kokoro || OC

Name: Dokuno Lee Kokoro

Alias: Doku

Face Claim: Uruha 

Age: 27

Species: Viper shifter

Special Abilities/Powers: Doku develops naturally occuring venom in his veins that can be transferred by a bite. HE has the ability to shift into a rare viper, as well as the natural enhanced senses and reflexes of a snake. 

History: Doku was the oldest Kokoro child, but he's now an orphan. His father was killed in a car accident as a kid and his mother killed herself when he was 11. Doku's little sister Yudokuna, was abducted and found dead just after Doku's 13th birthday, and after a year, his mother could no longer handle it. She drugged Doku and put him in a closet before setting the family home on fire. Doku only survived because he woke and crawled through a window. He was put in foster care, but he never really recovered from his mother trying to kill him. The trauma brought forward his shift and Doku had to adjust to the money left by his father's estate and his new found ablities. Music - namely playing guitar - helped him cope and feel balanced. He tried to live a normal life, but he struggled with his nature, as well as his opposition to cold. He bundled up quite often, and he met his friend Kevin, who was trying to make a band. Doku's natual talent made him the lead guitarist as he and Kevin wrote songs and searched for the missing pieces. Once they found it, the group of five became closer than brothers and worked for five years to get their band signed, to which they now tour with a growing fanbase.

No. 22: “They never saw us coming, ‘til they hit the floor.”

Glass Shard | Vehicular Accident | “Watch out!”

Yesterday was Uryuu learning Shikai, today is the Ban-kai incident and how he became squad 11's unofficial fourth seat.

----

Learning Shikai started as a nightmare and became a gift, Yudokuna was a comfort and sense of safety and a reminder that he could choose what he was, that he still had some control over himself. 

Bankai was the opposite, he felt pride, almost excitement because when he finally managed to make out the words the spiders had been whispering to him, he said them aloud during a spar at the 11th. And it took the control he thought he had away.

“Ban-Kai. Spawn and consume all, Yudokuna.”

He loses himself as the voices stop and he becomes them, his mind and awareness being torn apart into the thousands and their overwhelming hunger swallows him. 

—--

Later he will ask how he missed Uryuu’s calling out his Bankai.

It was a normal afternoon and Yumichika was sunning himself while watching as Uryuu taught several new recruits why he was an unofficial seated of squad 11 when Yumichika notices, almost a moment too late, Uryuu’s Spiritual Power turns hungry in a way he is uniquely familiar with.

“Watch out!” he calls a useless warning, already throwing himself forward in shunpo, he gets there just in time to block with a Shikai he hadn’t called, it saves the unseated from death and Uryuu from the guilt he’d feel, but even then they are all thrown through the wall behind him. 

He recovers quickly enough to return to block again, Kujaku’s warning clear enough in the fact he took this form without being called, the spiders he can see are another warning. Crawling out of the sword, spreading out from Uryuu, growing more numerous as Uryuu takes their surroundings apart.

It’s the third hit that he notices that Uyruu is weakening the bonds of reishi, and he looks up to see Uryuu normal blue eyes are a mix of gold and pale blue and he wonders is Uryuu even knows where he is before he block again and realises his mistake. 

Fuji Kujaku cracks slightly before pain erupts from his chest and blood appears in his vision. He looks down to see the uniform of his chest torn and blooded as his chest cracks the same way his blade did.

He barely notes his struggle to breathe as Ikkaku’s shouts and he’s pulled away.

He blinks up at Ikkaku’s face. When did he move?

“S- st- stop him.” he gasps out, he wants to say more that ‘he doesn’t know what he’s doing, he’ll never forgive himself if he doesn’t destroy himself first,’ but can’t as blackness consumes him.

—

Yumichika wakes to Yachiru standing above him. He notes the Captain’s thunderous signature outside the room, almost hiding Ikkaku’s and causing the smaller ones around the to avoid, apart from ah-

Captain Unohana and a rare angry Isane, they were at the fourth.

“You noticed before me.” she asked, he tone a little too sharp to go with the grin.

“They changed.” he answered the unasked question, sitting up stiffly. The gaping likely fatal wound was gone, leaving an ache. Uryuu’s Spiritual pressure had changed the moment he went Bankai as was expected but the way his power kept changing wasn’t normal nor was the bloodlust and rage that entered Uryuu normal tightly controlled movements.

Or the hunger that echoed Yumichika and Kujaku’s own.

“Did you see them?” Yachiru asks her hand fisting in the sheets, and he’s more than a little concerned at the uncurrent of violence in her body.

“Yachiru.” the Captain drawled before Yachuri tore the sheets, she dropped the sheets and Yumichika finds he likes the sadness that replaced the violence even less.

“The spiders.” Yumichika speaks, as he remembered the flickers in his vision as he crossed blades, the feeling of crawling at the edge of his Reiryoku.

“What? What spiders?” Ikkaku asks as he comes closer, leaning on the bed next to him, Yumichika ignores the way Ikkaku stares at his chest, likely still seeing the way he has cracked open even with the blade touching him.

“Who’s the woman then?” Zaraki asked, apparently reading something from Yachiru’s mood, letting the despondent Yachiru climb on shoulder.

“The woman is Yudokuna, but their bankai was the spiders.'' He spoke looking at Yachiru for agreement, she nodded.

What spiders?” Ikkaku asked, again ignored.

“They can’t be what they should,” Yachiru sighed sadly.

“That was why they lost it.” he commented as it suddenly came together, Uryuu had always been an odd mix to his senses, normal Shinigami mixed with something other, Quincy since he had learned.

Uryuu normal Reiryoku always seemed to lean more to the other, the Quincy than Shingami which made sense since he was a Quincy first and he was still attached to his living body. Their Shikai was the closest they had come to perfect balance between both halves yet during Bankai the Shingami had overpowered his Quincy and in an attempt to balance it they lost control.

He was suddenly very aware why the Quincy’s were such a danger, Uryuu had torn the building apart taking the Reishi into himself with every breath and step while he wasn’t even aware of what he was doing.

He would have taken the men apart the same way, he remembered the feeling of the poison, the familiar burn hiding something else as he felt the Reishi in his blood weaken, in Shikai he was strong enough to fight past it, Kujaku screaming in panic before his lost conscience. The way Uryuu had cracked his sword the same way he had his chest.

“How was he stopped?” a cold lump formed in his throat.

“Baldy distracted him before Kenny got there. Then he brought you here.”

“He managed to block three of my hits, could have done more but he lost his footing in one of the holes he made himself and went through a wall.” Zaraki explained

“Though?” He has a picture of the wall disintegrating around Uryuu and adding to his power.

“The normal way, not the new take things apart bit by bit.”

“After that we followed you and baldly and brought Ryuu here.”

“Captain Unohana treated you first.”  Ikkaku tells him, before adding ”Good thing, the little prince would be gutted to wake up to find he killed you.”

Which was the reason he had gotten involved, even if he had overestimated himself, after all the work he and the rest of eleven had gone through to install a proper enjoyment of fighting in the boy the last thing he wanted was pointless guilt to ruin it.

“He’ll be banned from using that. Shame kid’ll be a damn good fight once he figures out how to control it.” Zaraki adds, Yachiru sighing from his shoulder in agreement

Yumichika doesn’t mention how unlikely that is, but then again Uryuu should never have managed Shikai and Yudokuna was persistent.

“They’ll probably make him a new collar to make sure he can’t.” Ikkaku concluded with a shrug

“I don’t think they can.” he admitted.

“What do you mean, fifth seat Ayasegawa?” Isane’s voice was sharp; the normally timid lieutenant was staring at him coldly.

“He's been leaving it on to follow the rules, I’m sure he could have removed it himself at any time.” 

“The reason it came off now is because Yudokuna got rid of it.” Yachiru explained. “normally Ryuu doesn’t let her.”

Which is a great comfort that the only thing stopping Uryuu from taking apart their surroundings was something he chose to leave on, well the boy had style since he covered the collar with his high necked capes, Yumichika took comfort that at least his student had style.  

“His injuries have been healed.” 

“And the rest? That boy will put up a fight but he’s far too soft hearted for actually hurting someone.”

“A natural healer.” Captain Unohana gave them a sad smile. “he will be relieved you are alright and have no hard feelings.” she said directly to him, Yumichika smiled back ignoring the raised hair on the back of his neck the captain’s words, they much like the question Yachiru woke him up with, had too much of an edge to ignore.

“Of course, we’ll just have to keep working on his Shikai.” he meant every word, because like hell was he giving up training a kid who could do that while looking magnificent, take him out then go up against Ikkaku and the Captain.

“That’s good.” Captain Unohana said with a beautiful smile, her lieutenant followed her sending one last look at him, he sighed not doubt he would have the prettier of 13th third seat around demanding an explanation before Renji returned from his day off catching up with friends to find out that Uryuu was sent back to the fourth early.

Isane only has a backbone when it comes to her captain, and her younger siblings’ health.

“Kenny, can we have extra cake next time Uryuu comes. To make up that he can’t play properly.” he hears Yachiru ask as they leave, Ikkaku hanging back as he pulls himself up to follow.

He’ll send a nice bolt of fabric with Yachiru to ensure Uryuu knows he has no hard feelings.

AMOW 7 -  "Alright, let's get a headcount"

Day seven of AMonthOfWhump's March Trope-a-Thon.

sorry late

Still with the Bleach AU-Shared custody.

AU summary- Uryuu was taken by squad 12 members alongside Souken's soul on the day he was attacked.

Follows shortly after from AMOW 6.

Tatsuki problems resolve themselves as she decides to get involved and end a chase.

-----

Tatsuki wasn’t having a great time, while every soul reaper she had come across was easy to put down, mostly thanks that after the week she spent training with Yoruichi, everyone seemed so slow, she and Chad had been spilt up and she hadn’t managed to find any of the others since then.

So she had been taking a breather and trying to come up with a new plan to find someone, she had a rough idea of where Inoue was, since she and Ichigo were to only ones Tatsuki had memorised the feeling of their Reiatsu but before she could commit to going after her a shadow racing across the ground above the courtyard pulled her attention a above.  

She watched as a boy who looked her age skated through the air the way she had seen Dr. Ishida do, not the way Yoruichi had taught her Shunpo, seconds later several soul reapers followed.

She did the only thing she could do and followed, she didn’t like bullies and she knew when someone didn’t want to be chased.

By the time she caught up the boy had been brought down by a pair of chains and another shinigami who seemed to have been laying in wait for him.

“Freeze.” the one who seemed in charge of the pursuers ordered as the boy moved to grab at the chains, a sword was pressed to his throat the moment his hand moved to the sword at his waist.

Another man appeared to pull the boy’s wrist behind his back, Tatsuki should have stay out of it, the black uniform seemed to prove this was a soul reaper matter and she should use this to get back to her friends. But she didn’t like bullies and something about the boy reminded her of Orihime and Ichigo, it was made even worst as she caught the flash of fear as some cuffs were latched around his wrists.

"Alright, let's get a headcount." Tatsuki called before, waving as the all looked up in alarm. “5 against one isn’t a fair match up.”

The fight was a little harder than all the rest she had come up against since she had came here, but like the rest of her opponents they seemed shocked when her powers shifted from one element to the next as she changed guardians, Yoruichi had told her they would, so she took advantage and put them down before they attempted.

They was just stepping back from the fourth guy when she had to duck the large blade that would have taken her head if she was a second slower.

Instead she watched as several of her hair fell to the floor, she shifted herself back to a stance as she realised she had left the largest of the group, the one that had been cuffing the boy. Who was apparently as quick as he was large.

He started to move before a flash of blue and he was sent backwards and pinned with familiar arrows, she turned expecting to see Dr. Ishida.

The boy stood where she had last seen him chains gone, cuffs disintegrating from his wrists as he held a glowing bow in his hand.

She put it together quickly, the son Dr. Ishida had explain was taken by soul reapers years ago, the picture of the smiling innocent child next to the photo of Ichigo’s mum, the photos Mr. Ishida had shared with them.

“You’re Uryuu.” she breathed, as she put it all together.

She knew they were the same age, but pictures don’t age, the dead don’t age. The girl from Urahara’s shop could have been his twin.

No, the strange words she had overheard before they left suddenly made sense. 

‘I kept this body healthy, so bring him back Doctor.’

A mod soul in his body like Kon in Ichigo’s, but for years since he was taken by the Soul reapers.

They weren’t completely identical, while the girl-mod soul-whatever had their haircut to chin length, the real Uryuu wore his in a braid long enough to hang over his shoulder and had glasses that matched the doctor’s now she thought about it. 

The boy- Uryuu blinked eyes wide behind the glasses as he recognised his own name.

“Of course you're one of the ryoka.” he muttered to himself, as he stared at her“you came with father.” the glowing bow vanished leaving behind a strange bladeless hilt, which vanished under his sleeve.

Tatsuki ignored the small thought about how pretty his eyes were, and pointedly did not think of the large cross Dr. Ishida carried or the much smaller bracelet that would fit a child she had noticed him pull from his pocket and look at before they came here.

This was perfect she thought, finding of the the two reasons they had come here in the first place and someone who could help her get to the others.

“You know the way around here, right?” she questioned, it would make sense if he had been here for years and given the black soul reaper uniform under the pale blue and silver cape.

“Yes.” he answered looking at her strangely 

“And given the way they were after you, they're not happy with you anymore.” she added with a raised brow casting a look at the bodies around them, she noticed the man he had pinned to the was was also alive, Tatsukie had been holding back because she know Orihime would be sad if she knew she was killing people but she wonder if Uryuu did because he knew any of them.

That would have been a terrible first meeting if she had managed to kill someone he knew.

“You could assume that.” he sniffed, pushing his glasses up, if she didn’t know Dr Ishida she might have believed it as self assured confidence and aloofness but he didn’t manage it the same way he dad did it.

“Great, you can help me find your dad and the rest we came here with and we can all leave.”

“Are you sure he’d-” he started but was cut off as a hand appeared to cover his mouth, she jumped back and prepared an attack with one of her guardians

Only to blink as the person the hand was attached to formed draping itself over Uryuu, the tall masked woman would have towered over them if she stood straight, she was well formed the part of her mind that had tried to distract her with pretty boy’s eyes told her loudly and she ignored it focusing on the second and third pair of arms that had also appeared.

She shouldn’t judge; she reminded herself, hers and Inoue’s powers had come with personalities, so did Ichigo’s sword. Chad and Dr. Ishida’s powers hadn’t but after years stuck with the soul reapers it seemed Uryuu had picked something up from them, she had noticed the sword even if she had only seen him use the bow he made out of the weird bladeless hilt.

“Ignore him, Brave Guardian , we’ll be more than happy to assist in our own rescue.” the woman-spirit spoke in a low but soft voice.

“Fine,” he snapped, speaking more to the spirit than her, before he turned back to her with a small smile “sorry I never caught your name?”

“Arisawa Tatsuki.” She introduced herself and ignored her embarrassment at having forgotten.

“Ishida Uryuu.” he bowed, before adding with a small smirk “but you already knew that.” the woman hummed loudly prompting Uryuu to add “and this is Yudokuna.”

“Your Zanpakutō?” she guessed.

“Yes.” he nodded

“And the other half of his soul.” the woman added, pushing her mask up to catch Tatsuki with what should have been a menacing glare with red-gold eyes before vanishing, likely back to the sword Tatsuki assumed.

It should have been menacing but the part of her mind she had been trying to ignore was pointing out for a spider demon she was beautiful.

The blush of Uryuu’s face made him pretty too.
