   Summary

   Hell is real, and it is inevitable. It lies in wait just around the corner, its maw forever open and ready to catch the powerful from their descent.

   Ichigo sees no reason to prolong their arrival, and even though Rukia knows she should tell him no, her real answer, just as inevitable as their fate, lies in her hesitation. For IchiRuki Month 2022, day 3: Take my hand, take my whole life too. (canon compliant through No Breaths from Hell; mind the tags/trigger warnings)
