Summary
Ichigo shivered, instantly unnerved. The night was warm, temperature not remotely what he was responding to. Something was just… off about this place. The property had been in Yukio’s family for years but it was only in the last several that they’d attempted to rent it out, having no other use for the admittedly impressive house and grounds, secluded away, the nearest neighbor’s equally impressive dwelling barely visible down the road.
There was a problem, however.
No renter had remained past a month.
Just… gone.
Not their possessions, not their pets - all of that remained behind, untouched.
Only the people vanished.
Ichigo didn’t want to be here.Series

Summary
I make him open the office ev’ry morning at eight -
I come around about four hours late.
Ev’rything comes to those who wait -
I’ve got my Captain working for me now!
But the next lines were rudely interrupted by a fearsome crash and the sound of muffled curses. Half-lidded blue eyes flew wide at the sound and the sight, and as every eye in the club turned towards the bar, Rangiku gave up on any notions of finishing her set that evening. She hopped off the stage with a flounce, the crowd parting around her as she made her way to the disorganized pile of limbs that was their spirit-soaked guest.
“Hey there, fella,” she purred, cocking her head at the strangely dressed man, “You interrupted my set.”

Summary
Toshiro still hadn't accepted it himself. He didn't want to like men in that way. It was beyond inconvenient. But he simply couldn't force himself to be attracted to women. So, instead, he endeavored to be attracted to no one - well, no one except unavailable blondes that existed sixty six years into the future. As he was currently twenty six, he doubted he'd live long enough to ever meet him, and he'd be an old man besides.
So… Yukio seemed safe enough of an exception.
He made his rounds, collected the mail, proceeding to check each room to make sure no drunk had broken in the night before. It happened - not often - but it did. He sighed heavily when, from across the main floor, he saw someone passed out on top of the bar.
"Seriously?" he muttered to himself, making his way over. When he got close enough to get a proper look at the man however, he stopped dead, teal eyes becoming large with disbelief.
He'd recognize this man anywhere, even if they'd never met.
When his voice did surface, it was no louder than a whisper, strained and incredulous.
"Yukio?"

Summary
Ichigo blinked when the song ended and applause, cat-calls, and screams resonated around him. He couldn’t really see the crowd beyond the bright lights of the stage but obviously they were there.
“Thanks for comin’ out tonight!” The man that had pulled him into singing with him called out to the crowd. “We’re Espada - Name’s Shiro, Grimm on electric, lil Ggio back there on drums, an’ Ulquiorra on the synth. Shout out to our guest singer here too -” The mic was abruptly shoved into Ichigo’s face again, the other man’s expression wild and expectant.
“Ichigo…” he said, still entirely thrown by this ridiculous situation but now fully committed to playing along.
“Ichigo! Helpin’ with that cover for ya. We hoped ya enjoyed our set! Now ya fucks all get home safe - we need ya to buy our shit! I don’t wanna see a single shirt left at merch!”

Summary
“Where -” his words caught in his throat as he took in the absolutely stunning man frowning up at him. He had no idea where he came from, since their show had been over for a while now, but that hardly mattered. Shiro grinned wolfishly down at him, holding him a bit tighter, “Well hello there, pretty. Night jus’ got a whole lot more interestin’.”
He couldn’t take his eyes off the man. He was nearly the same height and build as Ulquiorra, and fit just as perfectly in his arms. In fact, they looked quite similar at first glance, although his hair was wavy rather than straight, eyes a brilliant sapphire to Ulqui’s emerald. He was dressed a bit oddly for a rock show - not that Shiro was one to judge - in black slacks and a blue button-down that highlighted his eyes. At least he wasn’t wearing a tie, leaving the collar unbuttoned at the top to give him a glimpse of creamy white skin that Shiro immediately longed to see more of.
Shiro couldn’t even tear his gaze away when he addressed Grimm. “Fuck, I love playin’ at Red Rocks! Gorgeous men literally fallin’ from the sky.” Eyes still locked on said gorgeous man in his lap, he added with no small amount of possessiveness, “You got yours. I’m keeping this one.”

Summary
Disoriented, he glanced around for the source of the sound and realized he was laying on what appeared to be a buffet table. He was surrounded by dozens of dishes, pitchers - that must have been what ran afoul of his elbow - and hundreds of shocked, scared, and downright horrified faces. He must have cracked his head when he fell too, because Renji swore everyone was wearing outfits straight out of a period piece.
Someone directly behind his head cleared their throat.
Renji’s eyes flicked up towards the ceiling as he was panicking and the entire world immediately came to a grinding halt.
Thoughts? Gone.
Because he was staring up into the most captivating gray eyes - at the most gorgeous man - he had ever seen.

Summary
Without explanation, Byakuya approached the admittedly oddly dressed man - even stranger than Renji had been - and pulled him up from his knees. He had no idea what the man was wearing. It looked to be something one would sleep in - a silk robe, but in a loud pink color with a floral pattern overlaid on the solid background. Byakuya shook his head, though. Clearly the future was a place of strange attire. At least, he hoped this man was from the future and not just a lunatic who wandered into a tavern. He had to look up - quite a few inches up, actually - to face the man, and he said in a harsh whisper, “Don’t say anything. Come with me,” before leading him by the arm back through the town.

Summary
Jack fixed his coat, keyed the numbers into the vortex manipulator and braced for the disorienting experience of getting pulled into the time vortex. A few seconds of dizzying time travel later, he popped out of the vortex and landed heavily on his side. On a… bar? He went to sit up and nearly fell off the side.
"Hell no," a very irate, girlish voice exclaimed. Small hands, stronger than they looked, took hold of his jacket and pinned him down. "Calm down and stay still - I'm not having another one of you bastards break even a shot glass.”
