Summary
"Where did it all go wrong? Did Ishida’s arrow miss its target? Or Zangetsu didn’t strike true?
It doesn’t even matter now. The worlds are slowly, inevitably falling apart.
Kurosaki Ichigo and Aizen Sousuke, the last living beings in the dying Universe, are spending their last moments in quiet conversation."This is a Bleach fan comic, an alternate TYBW ending time travel fix-it. Plot-heavy angst with a relatively happy ending and a lot of sad music.
Can be read as platonic AiIchi.
Will contain some loose lore interpretations and OOC. Ignores CFYOW.
No NSFW, PG-13 for canon-typical violence&gore. Mind the tags!1 page = 1 ao3 chapter; posting roughly 1 new page per 1-2 weeks.
UPD: Chapter 2 is done! ❤

Summary
After defeating Yhwach, the thousand-year blood war may have ended, but peace never truly came to the three realms. Instead, everything began to unravel. Amidst the aftermath, Ichigo Kurosaki found himself unexpectedly cast into the world of One Piece.
Devastated by the war’s destruction and the weight of all he had lost, he took the form of a stray cat—just another nameless creature drifting through an unfamiliar world.
In Water Seven, the stray cat crossed paths with the Straw Hat Pirates. Through a twist of fate, Luffy decided to bring the little feline aboard the Thousand Sunny.
Ichigo never intended to grow attached. But everything changed at Thriller Bark. When Luffy and the crew faced down Bartholomew Kuma, Ichigo had no choice but to take human form again. Fighting alongside them, he revealed a glimpse of his true power and saved the crew from disaster.
He didn’t want to risk loving and losing again. But hiding his heart grew harder with time. As they journeyed on, Ichigo found himself drawn to the crew in ways he hadn’t expected. The Straw Hats? They’d known all along. Maybe not the details, but the bond?
That was real.

Summary
Él no debía involucrarse. No era su lugar... pero cada lágrima de Ichigo le recordaba su fracaso.
Ahora, por su decisión, el destino escrito se resquebrajaría. ¿Era egoísmo protegerlo? ¿Obligarlo a vivir, negarle su dolor, incluso robarle el control de su propia alma? ¿Lo hacía por su deber, o algo más?
Shiro no tenía respuestas. Solo certezas: el pelinaranja jamás lo perdonaría si descubría la verdad.Ichigo: Nunca pensé que mi peor miedo... sería yo mismo.

Does it Hurt to Embrace a Weeping Blade? by MyRandomIdeas

Summary
This is the Arc sequel to ‘Does Zanpakutō Spirits Dream of Fleeting Homes?’, this Arc is best consumed with the previous Arc, but can be read alone. This whole Alternative Universe pushes most of the Canon Events 9 years into the future. Little heads up, this timeline have non-canon character death.
This Arc still centres around Ichigo and (the canon version of) Muramasa, but compared to ‘Does Zanpakutō Spirits Dream of Fleeting Homes?’ this had more POV from other characters. This Arc is gonna to have the most comforting stuff until Arc 5 rolls around, so I’m taking some extra time to squeeeeeze in additional little bits and pieces of the daily lives of the Kurosaki Household.

“The circled dates did not only refer to Meisō-chan’s upkeep, however. It was more than that. It had become more than that. There was a whole schedule Ichigo-san followed to turn what should have been a simple twenty-minute task into something even I had come to look forward to.
“But today was the first time I took part in the main event.”
