Collection of oneshots based on Ichigo and Rukia meeting for the first time in AU situations. -Hamartia- This is not a happy story. It's a tragedy.

A multi-chapter fic - my first one! - set right after Rukia was adopted and up until she leaves for Karakura. She and Byakuya have lost loved ones, but they become each others' consolation, even if it's just for a short while. With their interactions so far and few between, the ones they do have hold great weight. Rated MA for citrus in and out the wazoo. Please R&R! Thanks!

Because sometimes, you can't define your relationship. Snippet from Surge. Hitsugaya/Rukia/Ichigo

AU - Rukia Kuchiki was hired as a bodyguard for soccer star, Ichigo Kurosaki, but, in order not to alarm the rest of the team, she must also pose as his girlfriend. In the middle of an international game of cat-and-mouse, Rukia allows herself to be seduced by the orange haired playboy. M-rating for language and sex.

If she had to find a word to describe her table neighbor it would be egotistical. Or maybe arrogant. Or maybe scary. But in the end, she came to know him a lot better against her own will. It just depended whether she could call that positive or not. [Aomine/OC] [Birthday Present]

THREE-SHOT. For ichilover3. Racer!AU. He drives the racers and she fixes them. It should be that simple, right? Nope, not even close. IchiRuki. Slight HitsuKarin.

A story of Byakuya's changing feelings for Rukia, and the conflicts which arise. Quote: "He was surprised that when he saw her, he did not feel brotherly affection. Nor did he feel happy to be fulfilling Hisana's last wish. He looked on this child and was reminded of what he had lost."

Training practice begins to turn into more, Kensei tries to end it for Shuuhei's sake but Rukia won't let him go so easily. 9th from 64-Damn Prompts series

More than friends, less than lovers. Ichigo and Rukia's relationship was not easily definable, but it seemed everyone was dead set on giving them a label. But Ichigo did not love Rukia...

She tells him of heartbreak and pain in a silly story about coffee and cigarettes, and Ichigo thinks maybe there's hope for him after all. AU

There are 10 contradictions that form the gravity Ichigo must defy to reach her. [IchiRuki]

Ichigo and Rukia have a late night talk, but neither knew it would end up like this. And it started with one question: "What does 'sleep with' mean to you humans?"

In a normal school day, there are 6 subtle actions of Ichigo that leave Rukia with these unfathomable human feelings.

Boy meets girl. Boy dumps girl on her ass and insults her. Girl ties boy up with Kido, saves boy's family but ends up wounded. Girl shoves zanpakuto into boy's chest and makes him a death god. And then... Well, is it any wonder they're so complicated?

“Ichigo, meet our new neighbor,” his mother said and the girl standing in front of them held out her hand, “Hi. I’m Kuchiki Rukia.” He hesitated for a moment before answering, “Hi, my name’s Kurosaki Ichigo. I’m 5 years old.” AU. T just for safety.

How long does it take to decide whether you do or don't? Ichigo's thoughts on his and Rukia's relationship as he waits outside her wedding, seeing if she'll bolt or not. It's surprising how much history can happen between two people in a matter of seconds

Ichigo’s last tactic was a failure because not talking to Rukia was proving to be an impossibility, so he just had to yell at her more to compensate for these awkward feelings he was having.

Ichigo and Rukia have been divorced and re-married thirty two times. Quite frankly, the judges were tired of their faces. IchiRuki ONESHOT

She didn't know anyone in the world as lucky as her. Renji/Rukia/Ichigo, het and yaoi, spoilers for Bount arc

Rukia just can't help but love what she hates most. Brown eyed, possesive sex god's were way too much to handle.

A typical day in which an 18yr old Ichigo struggles with hormones and our favorite midget shinigami. Rated T for swearing and perverted boys.

Ichigo's not jealous. He's just a...concerned friend. Just a cute IchiRuki oneshot. Rated T for what teenagers do, some swearing, and a bit of Renji bashing. I love the guy, but it's just so easy.

Ichigo and Rukia really don't make things easy for themselves. Just random thoughts about why they think it's okay.

He watches the way they interact with one another, wondering why it wasn't him that she smiled at like that. IchiRuki, slight RenRuki. Could be a series of oneshots, if the plotbunnies breed...

There's more than one way to be a teacher, and there's more than one way to love. KaienRukia, KaienMiyako. Very, very preKarakura.

Whatever she may or may not be to me the fact remains that Rukia is a reasonably attractive female and I am a healthy teenage male, and she is sleeping in my closet... Ichigo reflects on what his connection to Rukia may or may not be. Twoshot.

In the end, Ichigo and Rukia never care to define what is between them. It just is what it is.
