Child, You Know How Much I Need It by sandwichsapphic

Summary
Though I knew beyond any doubt that his shoes, filled up with water, and his tie, so carefully knotted by my hands this morning, were destroyed by his roaming, I felt very little contempt. It was no mastery of my sang-froid, however much I would have liked to boast it. I confess, rather, that the ring of his laughter through the rain soothed any perturbation before it dared to surface.

Summary
I don’t know if you have ever had your torso scraped with a butter knife by your valet. There is not much in the experience to recommend it. Particularly when you suspect said valet is not entirely happy with you, and so wields the implement with more vim than strictly necessarily.
Or, the tale of how Bertie and Jeeves finally Confessed All to each other, despite – or, possibly, because of – the passion-dampening affects of Giant Squirts, thwarted wrestling, unhappy boating, rabbits (both of the Luminous and Dream varieties), an aunt who breakfasts on the ground bones of nephews who displease her, and a pair of very natty yellow socks.

Summary
There have not been fox spirits in these forests since before Grimmjow was born. Everyone knows this. Húli jīng are monsters who murder people to steal their skulls and shapeshift into beautiful women to devour men. Everyone knows this too.
Grimmjow knows what fox spirits are, until the day he meets his own.

Summary
He focuses on her voice over the pain and rapidly dwindling oxygen. It sounds like she’s walking as she speaks—he can hear her footsteps. She says he’s earned his freedom. More than that, he’s a hero. She tells him it’s a good day: for humanity, for him. He wants to believe her.
The footsteps stop. A moment of silence, and then—“Why isn’t he out yet?”
OR
Simon gets the data. True her word, Ava pulls him out. It’s not necessarily over after that.

Summary
"Think you looked just like that?" Ichigo asks. It's the first thing he thinks of.
Grimmjow puts his head back, gets comfortable like he knows he's in it, now. The tips of his ears press into the dirt. "Can't imagine looking any different."
(Sometimes, when Ichigo is really in his head about things, he thinks about what makes up a spirit-being.)

Summary
“Shut up, we have much more pressing matters at hand.” Han Sooyoung whispers aggravatingly. She turns back to Dokja, schooling her expression into something a bit more amicable before approaching him. “Hey kid, how old are you?”
“Um,” Dokja looks at her warily. “Fifteen.”
“You look eleven,” Yoo Joonghyuk squints, feeling an unnecessary urge to feed this child.
Yoo Joonghyuk meets Kim Dokja in the body of a child and realises a few things about their past.

Summary
The right words normally get lost in translation, between Yoo Joonghyuk and Kim Dokja.
Kim Dokja’s younger self had acted in the only way he knew how- by offering himself up. If there’s one thing that he knows at both 15 and 28, it is that not even death wants him.
For Yoo Joonghyuk, a man mercilessly wanted by life, it makes little sense. Regardless of his say in the matter, he has always been forced to live on. So, how can he reach a companion that dances with death as easily as he breathes?

Summary
"It's not my fault I'm late, there was a superhero fight right on top of the train. Dinner still good?"
"Apart from it being cold!" Yuzu threw after Ichigo as he escaped. "Which ones?"
"Oh, Gamuza and Spoonhead," he called down the staircase. "She curbstomped him into the rails with all four hooves, it was beautiful. Kinda ruined the tracks, though."
He pushed his bedroom door open.
"I like how that has never been his name and yet everybody knows who the fuck you mean instantly."
He pulled his bedroom door closed.
Heart thundering in his ears, Ichigo stared at his own hand on the door handle. Was there really -- no. A hallucination. Maybe Gamuza had kicked a piece of rebar in his direction on accident and now he was in a coma or something. They were rushing him to the hospital right now. Desperate to save him before his brains leaked all the way out. Yeah, that sounded better.
He pushed his door open again, just a crack.
"You close that in my face again and we're gonna have a problem," notorious supervillain Pantera mused, propped up on one elbow on Ichigo's bed.

Bookmarker's Notes
" Grimmjow wasn't sure, exactly, if human 'fight or flight' responses were exactly what he had. Mostly he had 'Calmy thinking about it, should I fight this person?' and then he had 'KILL IT NOW' "

Haunting Me Haunting You by Asuka Kureru (Askerian) for adiduck (book_people)
Fandoms: Bleach

Tags
Summary
Quincies are born behind barriers for a hundred reasons (the biggest being not "What if their fresh and tasty soul attracts a hollow" but "What if their soulmate is not the right sort". Meaning anything but another Quincy.) But Masaki's soulmate is the wrong sort (oh, so much of that), so she greets Ichigo's arrival in their own little clinic, protected by no barriers but the basic ones she put on their house, against prowling hollows.
Isshin cleans mucus out of little Ichigo's mouth, hands trembling, and looks up at her with eyes overbright with tears.
Masaki stares back, dumb with exhaustion.
Over her husband's shoulder there's a white-masked maw.

29. the one where your soulmate’s ghost haunts you when they die.

His Soul is Marching On to Another World; or, the John Brown Isekai by CabbagePreacher
Fandoms: John Brown (abolitionist), John Brown Isekai
15 Feb 2026

Summary
The land of Gemeinplatz is a land filled with fantastical creatures, adventurers looking to slay them, and heroes looking to distinguish themselves from the adventurers. The most common of these heroes are those who come from Earth, who enjoy a most leisurely time with their cheat skills. It’s a perfect world, the utopia of those who wish to become overpowered and get their own power fantasy, where even the most everyman of the everyman can pull themselves by their bootstraps and become a hero.
To satisfy the needs of heroes who can’t find function like a normal human being (which most of them can’t), the lucrative Gemeinplatz slave trade crushes the dreams and ruins the lives of hundreds every day. These slaves endlessly labor, in the harems of so-called heroes, at the mansions of the landowning “heroes”, and as rare materials for various dubious magical spells.
In a world that looks down at them as demi-human, where the ruling class has no incentive to end this profitable trade, in which their oppressors are overpowered as all hell, what hope is there for the slaves?
What hope is there, is named John Brown. This time, he’ll finish what he started.

Bookmarker's Notes
"Why did it feel so different with Joseph? How many girls had he swooped off their literal and proverbial feet without even asking for their names? How often did he whisper overblown promises to someone while pressed up in a dark alley —
“Madonna santa,” he whispered, to no one in particular. “I need to start respecting women.”"

memory that presses like a blade against my throat by voxofthevoid
Fandoms: Bleach (Anime & Manga)

Summary
There are silver streaks in Kurosaki’s hair. His expression isn’t set in the permanent frown Grimmjow’s used to—he’s not wearing much of an expression at all, face blank in a studied manner—but there are still faint lines on his forehead and softer, sweeter crinkles at the corners of his eyes and mouth. He’s broader in the shoulders and chest, and the lines of his body have softened.
This isn’t the boy he left behind.
“You’re old,” Grimmjow hears himself say.
Kurosaki’s careful non-expression breaks open into a crooked smile. His eyes glitter; they, at least, are that familiar warm brown, which soothes Grimmjow in a way he’s not keen on acknowledging.
“Older,” Kurosaki says. “And immortal ghost twunks don’t get to talk about my age.”
