what I'd do, if only you'd let me by themidnightguardian

Summary
Kisuke kept his distance, did what he was asked.
And now he needs to see for himself that Ichigo is fine. That Isshin was right and Ichigo is happier like this. That things are better because Kisuke stayed away.
If that’s true, then to hell with what he wants. He can live with it. He will make himself live with it.
---
*OR*
Aizen is defeated, the war is over, and Kurosaki Ichigo is powerless. According to Isshin, Ichigo is better off this way. Happier now that he doesn't have to deal with shinigami bullshit and can have a chance at a normal life.
Isshin lied. Ichigo isn't doing well at all.
Kisuke is going to fix it.

Summary
“They want me to get married,” Ichigo says with the sort of bewildered offense that he often wears after returning from Seireitei. Specifically, whenever he’s been handed orders from Central 46 that he deems bullshit, and which he’s going to do his damnedest to get out of.
“Did they say who they had in mind?” Kisuke asks, curious. And besides, it’s never too early to start planning how to eliminate a target, should such a thing become necessary.
“They’re trying to marry me off to Byakuya." Ichigo's face is scrunched up. Confusion or disgust—or some blend of both, ideally.
“Probably because you insist on calling him by his given name,” Kisuke says, aiming for teasing and landing a little too close to bitter, instead. It’s been years. Years. And Ichigo still predominantly calls him Getaboushi or Urahara.
---
OR:
Central 46 gets it into their heads that Ichigo would be easier to control if he was married off to someone in the Gotei. Kisuke would rather pull an Aizen and kill every last one of them than let that happen. Luckily, Ichigo is--more or less--of the same mind.for the prompt: devotion

Summary
He wanted this, with all the greedy shards of his guilty heart. And if Ichigo would give this to him? If the man he’d sworn to follow and fight for would give him this?
Kisuke would take it all, even if it broke him to pieces.

Summary
Ichigo sleeps, obviously, but—first with the nightmares of his mom dying, and needing to take care of the girls in the middle of the night when they were little, and then Isshin’s increasingly aggressive “training” over the years—he doesn’t sleep deeply. Not in his own house, and certainly not anywhere outside of it either. He’s learned to get shut eye when and where he can, but he’s never so deep under that he can’t snap to awareness in an instant if he needs to.
It often leaves him feeling restless, a little strung out and tense, but it’s fine. He’s gotten used to it. He’s long-since learned how to walk the knife’s edge of exhaustion.
But.
But not at the Urahara Shoten, apparently.

OR:There's only one place in the three worlds where Ichigo can actually get some rest. What starts as a one-off accidental nap turns into a habit.

Rather than going to the Visored, Ichigo goes to Kisuke to control his inner hollow.
Rather than having to fight them, Kisuke finds that he has to occupy Ichigo’s… instincts.
