Summary: Ichigo Kurosaki, an art student at Seireitei College, had never really pictured himself showing two pieces of his art at a real gallery for real people before his senior year had even begun. Yet the most surprising part of the evening was meeting Renji Abarai, an inspiring, hot and possibly ninja jackass. The only thing Ichigo could do was ask Renji to model for him.
Renji, who considered himself an awesome guy, agreed.

A/N: Finally, everyone, I'd like you to meet Second Sight, or Model!AU or Photographer!AU or MONSTER. ~65k in~two months ain't half bad, is it?
AND IT'S AWESOME, AND I'M SO PROUD I COULD CRY. But before I do that, there are some people I must thank!
First and foremost,
pb_cookie . You guys, you don't even understand. She was there for me after every scene and drew stuff and
this and then she beta'd the thing and GUH WE BOTH KNOW IT WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN THE SAME WITHOUT YOU. If I go on I think we'll both cry, and that's womanly, so let's just leave it at this. ♥
Of course, then came the talented
babyluw with her art for me, which can be found
here. Sweetie, thank you for sticking by me and making all those fabulous pictures! They really are awesome! :D
Of course, there's
goldensprite who helped me right from the start when I was just working with the concept of the story, and she also gave the finished product some tweaking.
captain_doxa with more tweaking, and
ravens_rising , who is always in my heart--especially whenever I write AUs.
THANK YOU ALL!
ENJOY (AND COMMENT IF YOU'VE GOT A MINUTE)!
