Kreophagy

Underneath AU

Not 100% sure if this the design I'm going to go with (not sure about the tail, maybe might trade it in for back spikes, IDK, still trying to find that right balance between human and Vasto Lorde) but this is pretty much what Ichigo looks like after he's done mutating in the AU.

((He's learned to walk around hunched over so he doesn't scrape his horns along the ceiling or slam them into the top of the door-frame when he enters a room. He's honestly lost count on how many times he's given himself a small headache by accidentally doing just that.))

((At this point Ichigo has given up on cutting his hair, considering it just grows back to the same length by the end of the day. The same could be said for the red fur encircling his wrists and ankles.))

((Ichigo still can't see spirits, but he sure can smell them, as well as hear their movements. He was also delighted to find out his claws can now hurt Hollows. Sure he has the extra challenge of fighting an invisible foe, but that fact actually seems to excite him more than discourage him.))
