Title: All About Baby

Pairing: IchiRuki
Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach.

A/N: It's been a while since I was able to write anything, but I thought this was a cute idea and I'm giving it a try. So yeah, enjoy. :) 

Okay, since I've done a trial run with the Anime Addiction quiz and now know how to make them, I figured that I would do an IchiRuki randomness quiz. I want to see what all of you truly think of our Ichigo and Rukia, what you might change on each character or as a couple, and just other random things that I'm a bit curious about. Later on, I may just do a random Bleach poll. But that'll be later when KT drops the ball and pisses me off cause Bleach has gotten boring or random again like HM. Anyway, here's the poll, and enjoy yourselves. : )

Named: Ichigo's Resolve: Rescue of Rukia

If this AMV isn't at the IchiRuki FC at BA, can someone post it up over there. I'm having difficulties with my computer right now. It's running extremely slow and everytime I try to log onto the page, it's telling me the server isn't found. Okay, guys...thank you and enjoy! ^_^

 It's been a long time since I've posted up some Bleach Ichigo x Rukia stories, so I'll just post up a few good ones here. Most of you probably have already read them or are in the process of doing so, but I'll post them up anyway for people who have not read them. I'll even try to include the rating and summary for those of you who would prefer to only read certain kinds.

Those are what I was able to find that I liked. I also recommend C. LeShay's stories because they are hilarious but are rated M for mature content. 

Later I'll probably post up more stories that I've found to be pretty good although most of you already know to go to the FC at BA and can find many really good fanfics there as well.

It's 10:00 pm now, I'm off to bed. Good night everyone and enjoy these wonderful fanfics. :)

I would just like to wish everyone a happy, safe, and wonderful holiday season. So er...yeah, not much else to say...........yet. :p

Love,

Sequora  

Edit: I do have something to say. Okay, I just went back and looked at the Bleach manga section. The calender is pretty cool, just wish I could see it all. It's so long that my computer only goes up to Ishida. -_- But the cover of SJ looks nice. Seems they're getting ready for the new year too. 

Bleach chapter 304 is just mind blowing. Kubo Tite should start writing shows for the SciFi chanel. I mean, having Szayel (sp?) being reborn threw Nemu made me cringe. Kinda reminded me of that movie Aliens. Yeah, just freaky. And what about Byakuya not wanting Rukia to worry over him. Such brotherly love. Well, that's how I saw it. XD Poor Ishida and Renji. I feel so bad for them. They just want to leave and they keep getting their asses into trouble. Bet they'll think twice next time before jumping in.

I'm still holding out for chapter 306. If Ichigo and Rukia reunite in that chapter, I'll be so shocked. lol....it's the chapter I picked in the FC for them to reunite. haha XD. Looks like it's getting pretty close though. I'm sure I'll hear about it in your LJ's, right guys? I can't wait for that  reunion.

Oh, one more thing.....Do you guys think KT is really going to go on a two month vacation and write back stories? I wouldn't mind him doing that because we could find out more about the characters we love and about the ones we hate (and then grow to love them too). But the question that's buring me is if KT does do this whole character background thing, would he do one on Rukia? No one knows anything hardly about her, not even what her name really means, and although they do have some mysterious and shady characters with pasts I'm dying to know about (Urahara), hers has got to be the one I would love to know about...end of discussion. But Kubo is sort of mean, I don't think he'll allow us all the pleasure of getting to know Rukia further yet. I bet he wants to reveal all that in the manga just like he is doing with Ichigo. How cruel.

On a side not...who's ready for the Diamond Dust Rebillion?! I know I am! The movie looks pretty interesting. They even have a scene with a young Ichigo that I would love to see and Rukia and Ichigo (everyone talks about it) seemingly on a date. I think they got the hint from the last movie on that one. Okay, shutting up now. :p

Title: Father to Daughter

Rating: K+
Summary: Rukia is about to have the full experience of being accepted into the Kurosaki home,Isshin style. And what better way for Isshin to get to know his future daughterinlaw than by having a fatherdaughter day. Leads to IchiRuki, Fatherdaughter fluff
Progress: This story is now COMPLETED!    XD

A/N: CONGRATULATIONS! You are now about to read my second fully completed multi-chaptered fanfic! I had a great time writing this story. The last chapter just kinda came at me. lol. But I surprised myself. I thought it would be more than three parts, but it was just exactly that....three parts.  Well, since I'm too lazy to post up the other two parts, I'm just going to give you the link to the ff.net page. If you want to reveiw here. Go right ahead.

And on a side note, I'll soon be working on a Christmas IchiRuki story. So stay tuned for that. Now, will it be up by Christmas? I don't know. Probably not. But I will write a Christmas fic.

Here's the story: Father to Daughter Part III

ENJOY! XD

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3874394/1/Father_to_Daughter

I'm probably late with this, but I don't care. *cough* I haven't been in the FC since Thursday night, so many of you have probably talked about this episode there. 

Episode 149 seems to be the end of the mini-filler arc. At the beginning, of course, it's all filler until we get to the end of the episode. At the end of the episode, we see that the anime is getting back to the manga starting with Inoue standing at the window and Ulqui surprising her. Such a moment between the two. :p 

What upset me the most about this mini-arc was how cold Ichigo seemed or for  a better use of words, how he didn't react to Rukia being missing. Even after they saved Nell and her buddies, Ichigo still seemed to have forgotten about Rukia until Renji mentioned finding her. It was very out of character for Ichigo to forget about Rukia. And then I have to remember that this is the anime team we're talking about.

Another thing that threw me off was how Ichigo wasn't even in Bankai form but was able to perform Getsuga Tensho. I thought he could only do that when in bankai, but maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, it was an okay episode. I'm still a little upset with how much Ichigo seemed to be OOC and all. I guess I have the anime team to thank for that. Thank goodness it gets back to being the manga. Finally, Ichigo is back in his element and Rukia is there with the gang.




 

But this time with music from Lord of the Rings. It's really good. Made me want to watch Lord of the Rings over again, Memories in the Rain, and the whole SS arc all over again. -_- Damn video.

AMV - Bleach - Ichigo & Rukia's Relationship
Made by: Cynim or atleast posted up by him/her
Found at: you tube
Song: Requiem for a Dream-Two Towers-Lord of the Rings


 

I love this song! And the AMV isn't so bad either. XD XP

ETA: I just love watching Ichigo fight, especially in SS. His passion and determination is just so awesome! I just love how he looks so damn good in SS with that look. And that's strange for me to say especially since he's taking such a long time to grow on me. But I'll be damned if he doesn't look just so determined and hot! when fighting Zaraki or when he stops the three fuku-taicho's from getting to Renji and Rukia. I just love that passion and flare. Gosh! I'm gushing about it now. :p

Honestly, Ichigo is his hottest around Rukia (attention all fangirls and anime girls alike: this is when the number one rule of life comes into play: you may look, but don't touch, or Rukia may go bankai on your ass and freeze you :p) 

And you know what? Rukia looks beautiful with her hair going a little past her shoulders like that. I like that look on her. It makes her look softer to me. And I know for a fact that Ichigo is probably loving playing hero to his damsel in distress. I bet he's been yearning to do it since the parakeet incident. And since Rukia doesn't allow him to always be in control (who wears the pants in this family? :p) this moment allowed him to shine and be all manly about it.

Rukia and Ichigo, honestly, I just love that chemistry. And I love how the anime team drew Ichigo, Rukia and the panels the same as the manga. So awesome. 

Love that determination. I just wish he showed the same in HM. But probably not or I might have a problem with who he would end up with, and since I'm positive it's going to be Rukia, then it's only best that he has those awesome looks, passionate moments, and determined facial expressions only for her. XD

Well, this is just one of those off-key rants because I just miss the light-hearted bond between Ichigo and Rukia. Heck, I miss their interactions and everything.

I, being very nosy, found this at the IchiRuki LJ Community. It's very well done and I just enjoy it to pieces. Well, I thought it was very cute. ^_^  They were made by Syuku.

Okay, I was on animesuki forums and decided to just look around a bit when I came across the thread:

You know you watch to much Bleach when.....

and then someone wrote,

you scream BANKAI during an orgasm.

I thought I was going to die laughing. I'm sure my neighbors think I'm deranged or something. Just imagine Rukia and Ichigo going at it and then all of a sudden Ichigo screaming BANKAI. What the hell?! tsk, tsk, I wonder what Byakuya would think of Ichigo now, degrading his precious and honorable bankai that no ryoka is supposed to have. Well, I guess Ichigo must have lots of Bankai power. *insert evil maniacal laught*

Oh, I need to behave myself. Come on KT! Bring us the next chapter PLEASE!

I know that this has been done before, but I couldn't help myself but to post this as seeing that many IchiOri fans believe that Orihime and Ichigo match up due to their astrological signs. Well, I'm a capricorn (b-day Jan. 16) and so I decided to look this up for myself.

What I came across most definitely matches Ichigo and Rukia to a 'T'. So tell me what you guys think of this.


Yep, sounds like a sure ringer to me. I better start looking for my cancer. XP Bah, just kidding. When love happens, it happens no matter what sign your are. But it's still fun to look it up and see. XD

Here's the web site if you guys want to check out your love matches.

http://horoscopes.aol.com/

OKay, I uploaded the pictures like this. I'm so proud of myself. I got something right for once. XD And my computer didn't blow up on me or make strange noises. Yes!

Well my little shinigami friends, since BF is still down and I'm feeling a little bored, I just thought that I'd post up some pics of Ichigo and Rukia. Hopefully, this will put everyone in a better frame of mind. Just remember the blissful IchiRuki lurvvve! XD

All pics were found in Photobucket. (Some of you probably seen these pics before, but I thought I'd post them anyway to give us some IchiRuki love sense BF is being more like BS. Sooooo, enjoy!)


Alrighty guys! Hope you enjoyed all that IchiRuki Love! XD  Anyway, I have only one request.  I wanted to know how do you put them all under a link if the posting is too long. Never mind, I think I figured it out. :p XD Thanks anyway.

Thanks. Off to work I go! Yippy........<<<<Said Sarcastically

Hello everyone, I was bored and so decided to do this post analysis. It's about Rukia's strengths and resolves and about Ichigo's parallelism to always be there and save her. I will try to the best of my abilities to show you guys this, but seeing that this is my first time trying an analysis, it might not make too much sense. But I'm hoping you'll give it a shot and let me know what you think. Some of you may not agree with this, and that's okay, but I'm just giving you a heads up that it may seem biased or not to you.

I started to think about this after viewing Manga chapter 267 and reading the IchiRuki FC. It's killing me because I want to know what's going to happen next. So I decided to look back at the manga and do some parallels of when Rukia was hurt badly and when Ichigo made an appearance. I'm also doing this to show her strength. Many people consider Rukia weak, when it's just not so.  I'll explain this as I go along.

This is my first Bleach analysis, so I hope I'm doing it right. lol. :D Also, I've not seen all of the manga, so if I've missed some important manga parts that you believe should be in this analysis, let me know.

(Note: Because I'm horrible when it comes to understanding computers, I'm just going to post up the link to MangaVolume.com where I have found the manga scans. I do apologize for this. If anyone knows how I can paste up manga scans to this LJ, I would appreciate knowing.)

The first time we see Rukia's strengths is in the first manga chapter. Although it is true that she is a Shinigami and must put her life on the line for all souls, she could have let Ichigo and his family die. Instead, she threw herself in front of the hollow to protect a guy she didn't even know from Adam. The hollow injured her severly and would have eaten both her and Ichigo if she would have not transfered her powers to Ichigo. Then bang boom, Ichigo not only saves his family and himself, but Rukia as well.

Next time, we see where Rukia is in danger once again. This time it involves nasty leeches that blow up. Keep in mind, Rukia doesn't have her powers at all and can only use a little bit of them. But until Ichigo returns to defeat the hollow, she must keep a clear head and keep everyone safe. This is another strength of Rukia's. She is always able to put her most important priorities first, this time it being Chad and the Parakeet.

http://manga.mangavolume.com/manga/Bleach/Chapter%2010/Bleach-02-03-11.png

Then, just when you think she may be down for the count, again, Ichigo shows up.

http://manga.mangavolume.com/manga/Bleach/Chapter%2010/Bleach-02-03-18.png

I guess you can also say, this is one of the first times where we see Ichigo care a little about Rukia and her injuries. He seemed pretty upset to me that she didn't listen to him and got hurt. But moving on.

The next time we see Rukia's strenght and an Ichigo coming to her rescue parallel when she's in dire need of help is in chapters 53 to 57. Rukia runs away and tells Ichigo to hide. She doesn't want him hurt at all or getting involoved. She should have known better, because not too long after, here comes Ichigo, sword swinging to save her. Of course he fails, but that's not the point, the point is that Rukia once again was in danger and instead of thinking about herself, she thought about Ichigo (telling him to go into hiding) and of Ichigo thinking only about getting to her.

http://manga.mangavolume.com/manga/Bleach/Chapter%2054/Bleach%20v07%20ch054%20pg028.jpg

Alright, first manga scan is of Rukia running away, the second, Ichigo makes an appearance.

Right afterwards, Rukia is taken to Soul Society and Ichigo is in despair. Well, we all know what happens. Ichigo makes it to SS to save Rukia. The next time we see Rukia's strength is at her execution.

http://manga.mangavolume.com/manga/Bleach/Chapter%20150/%5Bmanga-rain%5Dbleach-ch150-18.png

Another one of Rukia's strengths was putting on a bold face and doing what she had to do. Not only did she ask Yamma-Ji to send Ichigo and the others back home after her execution, but she was able to put her heart at rest and ease. But then, low and behold, here comes Ichigo once again.

http://manga.mangavolume.com/manga/Bleach/Chapter%20150/%5Bmanga-rain%5Dbleach-ch150-23-24.png

Can I just say: I love this chapter! Every page of it! Just everything is awesome about it! So IchiRuki!!!!! I'm feeling the love baby!!!! OKay sorry about that, no more fangirling.

The next case is of Rukia kicking a depressed Ichigo's behind and setting him right. Yes, it's everyone's favorite speech. "That's the kind of man you have been in my heart Ichigo!" Oi Rukia, tell it like it is!

http://manga.mangavolume.com/manga/Bleach/Chapter%20196/bleach-ch196-02.png

http://manga.mangavolume.com/manga/Bleach/Chapter%20196/bleach-ch196-14.png

(Note: now that I think about it, aren't their roles kinda reversed. At first it was Ichigo always there to save Rukia, then after SS arc, it seems it's always Rukia coming for Ichigo)

It's true, She was the one who took care of D-Roy, helped to train Inoue, and saved Ichigo from Grimmjow. Then she was able to meet up with him again in HM. Boy, talk about reversal.

Now, we are here at the latest chapter. Rukia has gotten hurt pretty badly by the Espada. But her strength in this was her level headedness and determination to hang in the fight. Now, all we have to wait for is to see if Ichigo will keep to his parrallels of rushing to Rukia's side.

I hope it was at least an okay analysis. I really don't have the time to sit here and go in debth with it, although I would love too. But alas, work is calling to me.

I also hope that this analysis did what I was hoping it would. To show that Rukia is not weak and that no matter what the situation, Ichigo will have her back. Now KT show us some parallels!
