Bare Your Fangs to the Dusk Part 6
Benihime slunk around the tall wall of the Quincy guild compound, scenting at the air and the aer in an attempt to determine where the residents were. Almost everyone seemed to be asleep except for what she suspected were guards, but that wasn’t going to last much longer; false dawn was creeping in, covering the …

Alexis/Erich/Kisuke/Yoruichi: Almost Kiss + Aroused by Her Voice
40 and 87 alexis/erich/urahara/yoruichi? :3c For Art Reasons – ven (40: Almost Kiss, 87: Aroused by her voice) It starts, ridiculously enough, with Erich making an offhand comment. Yoruichi is sprawled out on the table in her feline form, listening to Kisuke and Erich talk and enjoying Alexis’ very skillful touch – the woman has …

White Wings and Soft Cloaks Part 6
Kisuke was still exhausted when he woke in the morning, his reiryoku only partially refilled and his side aching from the Hollow’s blow. He wished he could heal himself or, barring that, wished these strange singers could finish the healing for him, but he knew that wasn’t going to happen. He had no doubt that …

White Wings and Soft Cloaks Part 5
The minute Mami began to clear the plates, Alexis rose to her feet and tugged Erich up after her. “I think we’re going to turn in early,” she announced cheerfully, wrapping an arm around her husband’s waist and guiding him away from the table. “We’ll see everyone in the morning!” “Goodnight Alexis-san, Erich-san,” Urahara said …

White Wings and Soft Cloaks Part 4
Alexis landed lightly behind the bathhouse and folded her wings away. A blink, a breath, and a cloak settled across her shoulders in place of her wings. She ran her tongue over blunt human teeth and arched into a stretch, settling into human limbs and human balance and human everything; it felt strange to shed …

White Wings and Soft Cloaks Part 2
“What sort of fool wanders this deep into the woods while wounded and then claims he just needs a nap of all things!” Erich growled as he hastily swept their first aid supplies into a satchel. ::Sounds like someone after your heart,:: Alexis said, stepping forward and stretching her neck and wings up to let …

Baku Erich Part 8
The sound of voices rouses Erich from his nap and he cocks an ear to listen, not bothering to lift his head or open his eyes. The words are too indistinct to make out but the tone carries through the closed door easily enough; the conversation seems uncomfortable, not that Erich can blame them. He’s …

Baku Erich Part 7
Just like he promised, Erich returns as the sun breaks the horizon, Alexis at his side and the hoshi no tama once more tucked beneath his chin. They find Ishida Uryuu sitting up in bed and scrubbing at his face, hair wild from sleep and exhaustion dragging at his shoulders. He squints out his window …

Baku Erich Part 6
Erich is unsurprised when he arrives near Ishida’s home the next evening to find the teen stubbornly awake despite the hour. It’s tempting to simply turn around and leave without approaching him, but Erich resists. He’s already been seen and introduced himself and he doubts that Ishida will write it off as a strange dream. …

Baku Erich Part 5
Erich watches over the young Kurosaki every night, examining the state of the boy’s soul for any hint of change. It’s safe to say he’s grown attached; with every nightmare he eats he understands more about the boy and his life, and Erich— Erich can’t help but admire the boy. He’s so young, so determined …

Baku Erich Part 4
They begin that night. Erich devours the boy’s first nightmare and Alexis pulls free a fragment of the hoshi no tama, no bigger than a grain of rice. She holds it out to him, perched on a claw, and Erich breaks off a fragment of his Self to wrap around the divine gift. A baku’s …

Baku Erich Part 3

Kitsune linger just within his senses, their curiosity piqued by his visit to their kami. Sometimes he even catches sight of a snow-white …

Baku Erich Part 2
It repeats. Night after night they bound between the teens, working to give each as much sleep as possible. Night after night Erich worries over the first boy, the teen with fire-orange hair and torn soul. He and Alexis do what they can, press fragments of their Selves against his soul like makeshift bandages, but …

Baku Erich Part 1
His wandering is not due to starvation. Humans live so crowded together, packed in tiny homes stacked one atop the next, that he could glut himself on nightmares every night and never eat them all. He bounds from home to home, following the murmured cries of ‘baku-san, baku-san’ to those who want their dreams eaten, …
