and it's got a way of knowing when to haunt me

sfw, ichiruki

Rukia thinks it is best to leave Ichigo be after his powers fade, believing she ruined his life. She takes some small consolation in the part of his fighting spirit she is convinced she is now carrying with her, inspiring her to become strong like he was. She does not, of all things, expect to wind up hosting his inner Hollow. The Hollow expects to fade away and die when Ichigo’s powers disappear, without his king ever learning the truth about him. He is used to being abandoned and forgotten, and where exactly is he supposed to go now, anyway? And yet he lingers on, tossed against all reason into Kuchiki Rukia’s inner world. (In which two people, both separated from and haunted by Ichigo, eventually find a surprising amount of solace in each other’s company.)
