#orihime x tatsuki

[thejollyrabbit]

Posted about Bleach a few times recently and it got me thinking about Ships for it so here are mine off the top of my head (may edit/add in more later).

Ichigo x Orihime: I like how the series didn't start with her already liking Ichigo but actually being afraid of him before her feelings did a 180 after getting to know Ichigo better and learning about him as a person.

Chad x Isane: Big man meets big(er?) woman. It must be so hard for Insane to find someone not intimated by her height, I found a height chart of just the shinigami and not counting the dog or the dead kenpachi there are very few characters taller than her.

Renji x his own hand: because he can fuck himself.

Ichigo x Yoruichi: She is a big tease / older woman & he is a hormonal teenager, which the series has absolutely depicted him as, usually when dealing with her teasing.

Ichigo x Rangiku: tried to seduce Ichigo, who has been depicted as the hormonal teenager he is, for a place to stay in the world of the living.

Ichigo x harem: as a descendant of the Soul King, via his mom, and the noble houses of Soul Society, via his dad, Ichigo has the most royal/noble blood in the series. A series where a third of reality has a very old mentality on nobility, so if they hadn't "made" a replacement (& the series wasn't pure Shonen), I could absolutely so Soul Society making Ichigo the new Soul King and forcing a harem on him in order to preserve the royal bloodline. I don't think he'd like it but I could see it happening.

Orihime x Tatsuki: in cannon best friends and I've had the errant thought that Tatsuki wished she was the one groping Orihime instead of Chizuru.

Orihime x Chizuru: I've had the errant thought that Orihime would chastise Tatsuki for stopping Chizuru with physical violence, because Orihime liked getting groped (& maybe even how public it was, she could be perverted, I rarely kink shame)

Tatsuki x Chizuru: I've had the errant thought that Tatsuki got so mad at Chizuru for groping Orihime because she wanted to be the one Chizuru was groping.

Tatsuki x Orihime x Chizuru: Poly Yuri + a combo of my reasoning for their individual pairings.

Yoruichi x Soi Fon: in cannon I think Yoruichi knows Soi Fon likes her but, despite being a flirt, she chose to keep their relationship professional due to the power imbalance of their families...but if Yoruichi didn't care about that...

Chizuru x (only when she's older) Yuzu: I always get budding pervert vibes from Yuzu so I can see her getting together the biggest pervert in the series.

Mizuiro x Ikumi Unagiya: He likes older women and she IS the series' resident MILF.

imagine being in Orihime’s friend group, and one day you see her video with B.A.S. by Megan Thee Stallion playing and “guess who just confessed to being gay and in love with their best friend at the same time after 3 years of dating” as the caption. #highschoolsweethearts in the hashtags for sure. the video itself is just them both screaming “fuck it, guess we both ain’t shit!”, and then taking turns dancing to the “he lyin’ to me, and I’m lyin’ to him”.

For your consideration:

Bleach AU, Tatsuki is the protagonist instead of Ichigo gets all the soul reaper stuff and everything….and Tatsuhime is endgame….

"fuck, make me a mommy, 'chigo. pleeeaase.." you push your ass back on the orange haired male, his whole body shudders— "ya wanna be a mommy?"

"fuck, yes please."

he groans as he flips you over, hands pushing your legs sharply against your chest, folding you into a mean mean mating press.

his mouth hangs open as he fucks you, squelching and slapping clouding your mind as he bullies his fat cock into your juicy and squishy pussy.

"ohh fuck, baby. tell me how much ya wanna be a mommy, yeah? tell daddy just how bad you want 'im to breed ya." he grins when your tongue lolls out your mouth, drool slipping down your chin.

"shhoooo— byaddd... !! so bad. s'fuckin'bad!! omigod, 'm g'nna—"

"cum." ichigo demands, pushing his dick as far as it could go inside of you. your squishy body feels so good beneath his rock hard one..

you let out a sharp shriek as you cum all over his cock, creaming and squirting— he lets out a deep grunt as he does four more thrusts before cumming inside and filling up your greedy womb like you told him too.

"guess 'm gonna be a daddy.."

[acediaedeus]

surprise, surprise! what I am about to write will not be focusing on Ichigo, grimmichi or even Grimmjow. in an unexpected twist of fate I will actually be talking about Inoue Orihime and ichihime.

and frankly? I’m upset. and also very much done. so so unimaginably tired of all these canonical relationships made by mangakas desperate for a way to continue the story, to please the audience. because in this race to meet the expectations they create these soulless, superficial and seemingly loveless unions. they please only those who do not want anything beyond the cliche of “main character gets the girl in the end”. those who want a pretty picture to look at. no need for any depth, the masses will eat it up like starving dogs anyway, right? that’s what I feel happened to naruhina and sasusaku.

at least ichihime look like they love each other. you just know Kazui will grow up right, because he doesn’t have a perpetually absent father. so all in all Ichigo and Orihime are actually amongst the few lucky canonical spouses who don’t have a wagon of issues.

my gripe is with the way their relationship was set up. in this they are very similar to naruhina. an obviously infatuated girl and a totally oblivious boy? yeah... we are constantly showed face first into Orihime’s feelings for Ichigo, and I don’t have a problem with that, not really. I think the way Kubo portrayed her inner turmoil (her being jealous of Rukia) was phenomenal actually.

what I do have a problem with is:

I am not sure we went a single chapter with Orihime in it without a ‘btw she has a crush on Ichigo’ moment. like, atp we’re more likely to forget that Ichigo is a Shinigami, than about Orihime being in love with him. so it seems like her whole character is there JUST to like Ichigo and be the damsel in distress, when she could be so much more.

there aren’t ANY substantial moments where we can do nothing but concede that ‘yes, Ichigo does have a crush on Orihime too’. whatever moments we get don’t seem significant or serious enough for that. and I know there’s a time-skip, and obviously feelings could grow and develop in that time, but… it’s just icky how we only see Orihime obsessing over Ichigo, and not the other way around.

and you could claim that it’s because Ichigo has to deal with so much bullshit, so there’s no time left to see his feelings. but it’s objectively a terrible argument, considering what Inoue goes through while still having time to stop and drool over Ichigo.

anyway, do I hate ichihime? no, I like them. I’m as pleased with them as I could get with a canonical heterosexual relationship. they suit each other, they love each other, it’s all good. I’m just not getting anything out of them, that’ll make me go ‘damn, this is GOOD’. it’s adequate, I’ve had better.

but if I had to choose who Orihime would end up with it’d be a woman. either Tatsuki or Rukia. could be both. her relationship with Tatsuki is so… ughhh, it’s scrumptious. it’s giving what ichihime wishes it was giving. and her ending up with Rukia is also incredible, because we know Rukia considers Orihime her best friend, she likes her a ton. we also see Rukia worry about Orihime in this very tender way… oh god. and on Inoue’s end it’s how she’s jealous of Rukia, her beauty, grace, power, skills, bravery. do you see where this is going? I’m just saying, very sapphic of her.

ichihime is that comphet couple that start dating in high school, and last until their early 20s at which point they figure out both of them are gay.

The first chapter of The Aftermath is being reviewed by the fabulous @gina-chan1979 and then will finally be posted to Ao3!

I will never understand how Orihime didn’t say goodbye to Tatsuki

“Where did you go, Orihime?”

Breaks my heart every time.
