Protégé
Title: Protégé
Rating: T
Pairings/Character: Ichigo, Yamamoto
Word count: ~6,700 (complete)
Warnings: Canon AU, spoilers for the Soul Society arc.
Disclaimer: All recognizable characters are the property of their respective owners.
Summary: Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni is a wise and terrifying warrior, the titan who has ruled the Gotei 13 for over a thousand years. But, at heart, he’s an old man who likes his tea prepared a certain way and has a soft spot for talented youngsters. It started with Ukitake and Kyoraku, and his latest fledgling seems to be one Kurosaki Ichigo, substitute soul reaper. (Alternatively, a story in which Yamamoto is a crafty old man, Ichigo grows up to be utterly terrifying, and Aizen doesn’t stand a chance.)
