There are some scenes in BSD you could have fun with actually
A doctor becomes the leader of an organization by killing the last one, making it look like natural causes somehow with the witness being an apprenticed aged guy telling him to say that the former leader said that his successor was the doctor
Like that would be cool as shit in bonewarriors. Evil medic that gained power in a way that people can’t question but also like… should? Would be a hell of an exploration I think
Ok but like, that's Good writing. Good writing isn't as much fun to fix. From what you're telling me, Bungo is a Good series
If there was any anime I was going to beat with a hammer until it's a good story it's Naruto. That is the kind of anime that's so close to being good its ending will fold a protein in your brain wrong and become a prion disease

notes for the absolutely bonkers time line of toxicity (that's reborn au au). note that nothing is actually set in stone because it's derivative of reborn au, which is also not set in stone
i realized i suggested tori deciding to get with obito after the cave incident, but also that in reborn au she's actually already dating itachi when that happens. so consider
tori has been dating itachi for a few months (more if you count when she was dating him unknowingly) (her life is... dumb?)
she gets trapped in a cave by Some Guy and minato bans her from seeking vengeance
in reborn au she gets itachi to go freak out That Guy and is satisfied, but in THIS au everyone is more toxic. she has "destroys village out of affection" on the table as normal human behavior. she wants blood. she deserves blood
tori: can you BELIEVE itachi won't kill a singular guy for me obito: lmao tori is it really that big a deal? just kill him yourself tori: but it was :( tori: a cave :( tori: where i doubted anyone at all would ever help me again :( obito: obito: obito: okay FINE i'll kill him
tori breaks up with itachi specifically to seduce obito
it's an amicable break up. she doesn't tell itachi it's so she can run off with obito, but she's like "look i don't have any problem with helping you shirk your clan duties, but i still want to have my own dating life. lmk if you need something else but i won't be your fake gf" which is an entirely reasonable and mature argument for someone who is about to go after an unstable ex-missing-nin
obito is extremely confused when tori starts coming on to him (she is. not good or subtle at it) but ALSO he's kind of into it. he has a lot of weird feelings about tori but she's the one person who knows all his darkest secrets and he likes having her undivided attention. is she actually into him or is she trying to use him to murder more people? he doesn't care!
anyway i have been trying to figure out how no one intervenes in this or causes, like, some sort of permanent interpersonal fallout. and i remembered @waffliesinyoface and i joking around about toxicity just having its main cast destroy even MORE villages, and what if kushina wrecked suna's shit over gaara. so further consider
kushina goes to suna for some reason. idk maybe they host the chunin exams and they're like "send a representative..... not the hokage...... pls thnx." and she realizes how they're treating gaara and she loses her mind
kushina: SURPRISE I RUINED OUR ALLIANCE WITH AN UNTOLD AMOUNT OF MURDER!!!! kushina: also i kidnapped the kazekage's son. he's ours now kushina: he is deeply emotionally unstable and completely op and has murdered so many suna-nin kushina: but i can fix him. with my love <3 minato: o-oh
i don't think i'll have kushina PERMANENTLY adopt gaara (he has older siblings he can go back to!) but he's definitely in konoha for a hot second. so minato's life is currently
bonus child who is both crazy powerful and also desires to kill
(kushina: (shoving shukaku back in with her bare hands) HE'S FINE)
like the number of people who can handle gaara is. very low. he keeps sending gaara and naruto over to the uchiha compound for "babysitting" (Naruto keeps whining he's too OLD) but it's literally a bunch of A-ranks bc someone's sharingan is on them the whole time. the ushiha massacre 1000% doesn't happen in this time line because people are like "the uchiha are the only ones preventing us from being sand-coffined"
tori just fucking broke the hiraishin, so now he has to worry about the possibility of ANYONE ELSE doing that and killing/ruining everyone/everything he's ever cared about
obito?? decides to date her????
anyway the apparent situation of "obito, a 25 year old, has decided to date a teenager, who he's know since he was in his twenties and she was 12" is like. look, it's bad. but also minato is so tired. everyone else is so tired. obito what if you just...... didn't? please?
tori: but i'm the ultra manipulative seductress villain???
also an anon sent this
Itadei fake dating arc.... No one would even really notice/care since obitori is going on at the same time would they
Deidara doesn't give a shit about the murderous suna child. He killed him before and he'll do it again, okay. However WHY IS OBITO IN HIS APARTMENT ALL THE TIME NOW???
deidara: get her back. GET HER BACK itachi: ?? she had a very sound argument for our break up deidara: YOU'RE JUST COVERING FOR BEING A BAD BOYFRIEND
deidara is convinced tori would be SO easy to re-seduce. she likes good food and getting people to commit crimes for, okay. deidara would have just murdered that guy smh
deidara is going to show itachi how it's done
itachi is pretty sure being gay won't stop his parents from trying to get him to marry someone with a working womb, but maybe it will slow them down? certainly deidara has a good shot at scaring away any perspective dates
itachi and deidara start "dating" and no one gives it a second thought because it's the least insane thing happening right now

hiii tamelee <3 you said you were writing a script for sns, right? could you give us the vaguest idea what it's about or do you want it to be a surprise? i love your art btw its so pretty
Hiii! 💕 oh yes I'd love to!! Tysm for liking my art and your interest in it! Ah, yes! The script was pretty much finished and I planned on drawing it already... but I felt like I had to research something Kishimoto used as reference a bit better and then... I fell into the student/research rabbit-hole.. >.< I had to make a change and it's taking me a bit of time, but I'm getting there 🥹 ((I'm also not too sure about Kakashi as Hokage around that time, I can't really find much and I refuse to read more novels or watch that terrible movie -.- does anyone know?)) Hmm'~ It's an SNS-story, but the plot isn't focussed on romance. Doesn't mean there won't be any though...... ((Maybe unpopular opinion but I don't think either are ready to accept it at that point in their lives despite VotE2. Acknowledgement is one thing. Acceptance another. But taking the next vulnerable step when both are (secretly) terrified of loss and rejection? Oh man. Anyway, there'll be no (immediate) hand holding or skipping over happy rainbows, I'll say that much 👀)) There are things I want to say, but in essays my words fall short and so, I wanted to create a story with that purpose ^^ The plot isn't spread over a long time at all and starts around 2 years after the war when they're 19y- blank period. I may have to switch it to 18-20y because I'm not too sure about Kishimoto's timeline and I weaved in background info through the original. It may not be perfectly aligned, but I did my best >.< And so, the story itself starts much earlier- there are a few flash-backs. I entirely made up the conflict of course, but it is focussed around.... hm, I guess problems that we expected were going to be solved during that time but clearly never were? I'm not 'fixing' the future that is shown in the sequel, but I'm challenging the possibility of that outcome and consequences in my story anyway. Fair warning, there is quite a bit of satire.. Naruto and Sasuke not excluded 😬🤷🏻‍♀️ (It has purpose, I promise.) If anyone saw the design of an OC (I made changes already xD), then you probably saw that Amegakure will play a role as well. I guess you could see the story as some sort of filler-arc made by a dedicated fan, because those also have some characters you'd only see during that arc and then never again :') That's kinda how I approached it anyway. I asked myself 'If I could fill in the timeline here after Sasuke left Konoha and having the future in mind, how would I do that? 🤔' I tried thinking about things I can reveal already or things that will happen, but I feel like it's better to keep it as a surprise!!! 🫢 I haven't written a blurb either. (Why did no one tell us how hard it is to do that? Props to all authors, honestly.) I'll probably post some sketches soon, there are still a few things I have to design as well ^^ aaannndd... it will also come with cw/tw's... it definitely isn't suited for everyone but I can't wait to start the journey~

I will never forgive myself, every single time I think about how I got into p5 I want to scream.
TL:DR, Came for Joker, stayed for the Ryuji.
L:R,
Our story doesn't start in October 22, but in February
A "friend" of mine is into this game, tells me the cast is super cool, "Blonde Naruto, Junko Enoshima, a talking cat and L from Death Note team up and kill their Gym teacher" I was interested, why did she call Ryuji that? Blonde Naruto is just regular Naruto, I didn't know then, I don't know now.
I didn't think much of it, cut to may. She brings over her ps3 one day, shows me the opening and plays literally five minutes of Kamoshidas castle. I am captived.
The style, the combat, the guns, the main character, he's so cool, so stylish.
I HAD to play this game, Joker was too cool.
So of course, I forgot the name and suffered with only hearing bits of the story via her retelling, only one problem.
My friend, was playing p5 and watching Death Note at the same time.
I never knew if she was talking about Light Yagami (Death Note) or Light Yagami (Goro Akechi).
Here's a great example, and I quote "The Main character gets locked in a dungeon, Light Yagami promised to get him out but betrayed him and killed him instead."
Isn't light the MC? Oh well, doesn't matter, it didn't make sense, how was I to know that was about p5?
Better yet, we had been talking about p5 and she says "The MC's father took him and his sister out to a field and tried to shoot them with a shotgun."
I'm not even sure THAT happens in Death Note.
Anyways, October comes, I play for a while, get lost trying to find the Ginza gate, I save just before Joker wakes up in Kamoshida's palace, I didn't get it. Joker was stylish but realistically, this game is turn based, and I don't like turn based combat, the cool mc won't be enough to keep me hooked, extra so because he fades into the background.
Then, on November 16th, I tried again and was given a proper introduction to what kept me playing for the others 119 hours.
Sakamoto Ryuji.
Literally I was gonna quit in Kaneshiro's palace because I hate Makoto Niijima, but I hadn't finished Ryuji's confidant, so I had to keep playing.

Last year, in my country (Argentina) there was a statement sent to Cartoon Network (the company in charge of distributing the series on tv, essentially a channel meant for children) by the Women, Gender and Diversity Ministry complaining about some of Master Roshi's scenes in DB and Z. The statement demanded that they had to be cut bc they were inappropriate and normalized problematic behaviors like sexual harassment. It is my understanding the company actually agreed and said they would cut those, but I don't know whether they carried through with it.
Anyways, the situation caused quite an enthusiastic debate on the "adult" side of the fandom: lots of people agreed with CN's decision whereas some said that this was a mistake, for it took away the show's authenticity and that the matter wasn't that serious anyways.
I guess my question is, has some discussion like this ever happened in the japanese community/fandom? I know the "perv" character archetype is very common in anime, so I am curious about whether there are different takes/opinions on this matter.
And thank you for this blog!! It is really interesting :)
Ouah that letter took its sweet time arriving to CN!! XD
The Ministry is not wrong I believe, but gotta give it some context: DB Roshi (anime version) dates from 1986 and the "old teacher is very skilled in his craft but is also a pervert that we have to deal with" trope is so important and ubiquitous...
I might go on a tangent but systemic issues require systemic explanations :') My apologies in advance for the length!
If anything, Roshi (Kame Sennin; old turtle hermit) gets punished for his misdeeds (shot, punched, bullied by blonde Lauch, Bulma and Chichi)... Happosai (Ranma 1/2) is another example of punishing such behaviors (while Jiraiya and Kakashi in Naruto aren't really called out on their different instances of lewdness, for instance, and neither is Tsunade's focus on keeping a youthful appearance).
Nudity in DB is usually played for laughs and gag (the invisible man fight, the kids fighting Goku in the bath, Goku removing Bulma's panties and being traumatized by the absence of balls and her believing he's talking about the dragon balls...). Since nudity in and out of itself isn't really a problem in Japanese culture either.
The old man's perversity is also present in other characters in DB and Z. Bulma's father's hidden sexy magazine (she took the wrong capsule and both her parents request of Bulma to wish them each a nice young lady/young manr (canon swinger couple lmao)), Elder Kaioshin who won't help Goku unless he gets a cute girl to kiss him (and volunteers Bulma when Gohan refuses Videl, while arguing with Vegeta that "Chichi is not cute/not to his taste". ...), and Grandpa Gohan who doesn't want to come back to life because "Heaven is full of babes"...
There are, however, problematic elements concerning Roshi that aren't addressed: how Roshi asks Krillin and Goku to bring him a girl, and they just.. do it, and then (blue) Launch just.. accepts staying there?? Also no police is involved and Roshi groping around people that aren't named isn't addressed much either.
Hell over time it’s become “worse” in a sense that now girls just scream instead of beating the hell out of Roshi?
Chichi going from a fighter and martial artist to housewife and mom (and the anime really really hurts her into tiger mom trope), Videl going mom too, the situation with Ranfan in the tournament is played for laughs but if you scratch the surface, there's no girls in any of the tournaments (and when they do, they get wrecked :(.. apart from 18 and Pan at the very end). Bulma also gets mommified and goes from badass (and shallow when the world isn't in danger) to using the DBs for cosmetic wishes when the world is in danger :-/
There's a societal problem about the role of (married) women in Japan for sure, and I could write a whole sociological essay, but if anything in the 80s, Bulma was an alien: Non Love Interest to the MC, badass and having her own personality, had a lot of agency.
And she's the one who refused marriage!
Tumblr media
I think deciding if the censorship was a good idea or not really depends on a lot of factors; I'd personally say DB shows Roshi's pervert side as a character flaw that's being criticized (and in DBS Roshi actually fights that part of himself and becomes stronger by renouncing that side of him, somehow!).
I also personally think it sparks a discussion about it and could be good content to bounce off and talk to children about appropriate behavior (and afaik DB goes to great lengths to show it as a bad thing, but I also recognize some kids will completely miss the point <_<).
Japan has very strict views on gender roles and on what's allowed and accepted in terms of societal expectations (the country is very conservative too...); younger generations are more vocal about it, but considering the median age of those in charge of making decisions (including what gets serialized in magazines and what gets an anime adaptation), change is slow. Very slow :(
I've talked to a few people and they've told me something in these lines in terms of the role of women (because basically Roshi's behavior is also linked to that...) :
The "mommification" of Chichi, Videl, 18 (arguably) and Bulma is also Toei/Shueisha taking control over "what we want to portray, politically". As an IP, Dragon Ball "now" needs to fit a certain role model and represent society in a certain way to reinforce such roles. The IP isn't just an artistic creation anymore, it's a brand that has "societal obligations" (in a way; there's still a few subversive moments here and there but...).
In DBGT, Pan had to be the damsel in distress, this was her role in the whole series... Toriyama (when he said he didn't know how to design a female saiyan) and Toei staff couldn't even figure out how to SSJ her at the time. This was thankfully changed in DBS through Caulifla and Kale, as well as Kefla, but they still lose (differently in the manga and in the anime but still noteworthy).
Bulma is now a supporting wife to her husband (so they did end up getting married). Chichi remains the tiger-mom archetype, if anything. Videl was more or less fridged for Gohan's benefit in the Buu saga, and didn't even show up in the latest movie (!); they say she's a martial arts teacher but she has almost no agency or involvement (how cool would it have been for Pan to have been saved by the Great Saiyaman duo?). Videl just so happens to be a womb for the next generation? As in, literally for the SSJG transformation.
(Adult) Pan is often "Nadeshiko'd" in doujinshis because people rely on tropes to know what they're buying and what to expect. Mai became this too; a proper stern polite formal beauty with bangs and a princess (hime) haircut.
And then there's Bra and the long forgotten Marron.
So yeah. A lot of "Mondays suck" approach to this issue (Modays suck = it is what it is and we must endure it), but DB (at least the 42 initial volumes) wasn't outrageously glorifying the perversion and doesn't feel like like the message is "this is ok behavior". I don't think anyone reading/watching any DB considers Roshi to be a good role model or even someone to look up to or was ever described as "cool" (except by Goku who honestly doesn't know any better), including in DBS.
But then again, deep down, I believe the problem is how people aren't educated to have some media analysis minds anymore (re: people who completely miss the point of Fight Club and American History X, for instance).
I will do another check in with my pals (especially those who are less involved with the Western fandom/ideas) ^^

I have been enabled so Im gonna go on some more about my 30+ Messy ShinoHina lol (i'm shy but im also easy to squeeze more out of if you're polite enough lol)
More specifics under the cut because this became very... long after all I typed so, I will leave the fluff lovers some songs that really set the mood for me at certain parts of the story here <3 I don't hate fluff, I just need to balance it out with some feral behavior lol!
"Comfortable with the Silence" by Andy Shauf
"Wide Awake" by Katy Perry
"Feelings" by Lauv
"Near to You" by A Fine Frenzy
---
Now, the biggest thing I need people to understand about the whole situation is that everyone, everyone acts less than ideal at some point, to put it lightly. Because ideals are still just ideals, and even if you don't go looking for mess, you will experience it in your relationships as it is inevitable. People make mistakes, bro. And sometimes you just gotta live with what happens. You can't always heal or take it back, and you will experience both things simultaneously sometimes too. And it's shitty and will always feel bad. Stains, and scars, they are just proof that you have lived and have experienced things in life. No one is flawless. No one stays clean. All you can do is learn to cope and move forward with time, while trying not to make it someone else's problem. But that third thing can also still happen unintentionally too, and then new mess happens! Mess is natural. Sometimes, it only seems worse than it really is when all you do is focus on it. Other times, is continuously gets worse because of denial. It's honestly a truly wonderful thing when all parties can sit and really work through things together when Mess occurs, but that's assuming they can do so without getting toxic or distrustful and all that other bullshit that is ultimately counterproductive and makes walking away the healthiest choice at the end of the day.
And that's kind of the point, and my main reason for going this route with Shino and Hinata in a romantic sense. I feel Shino and Hinata are both the most likely, out of all the Konoha 13, to avoid and deny mess at all costs, in any situation, even at the expense of themselves in some way or form. Not just in personality, but also because of their socioeconomic standings too, but I won't get into that part of it too much rn.
Shino's behavior becomes warped more early on at the start of the story. Yeah, Shino has always been more petty and has even said or done things in canon that come off less than stellar, but they are also the kind of things that are usually harmless and finished as soon as the moment passes. But in this case, Shino refuses to act on his long standing desires, which are so strong, he's been unable to truly stamp out his feelings since he was 17, even after his heart really broke for the first time. He feels, knows deep in his bones as Hinata's and Naruto's friend as well, that Naruto isn't the person Hinata should be with. But because he wants Hinata to be happy, and respects her desicions, and because he is her friend, teammate, and fellow noble clan kid at that, he will support her first before he attempts anything selfish. And because he also still sees Naruto as his friend, and someone who at his core is a good person despite his treatment of Shino himself and obvious dumbassery, Shino swallows his jealousy and his judgment and his want. And so, he loses his chance through his self-inflicted restraint. He chooses to do this simply because it seemed like the right thing to do, for his friends. Getting involved the way he wanted to would only make things messy, regardless of how confident he is that things will work in his favor, which probably wasn't much anyway. Because how dare Shino try to impose himself on his... friend, and challenge... his other friend... Shino would never want to hurt his friends... but the thing is, you can't always keep everyone happy. You still count and will always count when everyone is involved. It was his choice to stay unhappy.
Hinata, in comparison, doesn't feel it until later, when it also feels like it's too late. And as it creeps up, she refuses to acknowledge her growing sense of disillusionment after she quite literally gets her wish from childhood, her Infinite Tsukuyomi even! She got what she wanted!! How dare she even think any ungrateful thoughts about her own situation!!! And yeah, maybe her dream didn't become an absolute nightmare... but anything less than a dream come true is still really disappointing, especially when the rose colored glasses come off so late in the game. But being unwilling to admit that will also cause her to grow closer and closer to a breaking point anyway. And deterrents are hell sometimes. The legal binding of marriage, their two kids, the fact Naruto is the Hokage, her already well known standing with her own Clan that, politically, will never paint her in a good light... All of that pressure to keep on keeping on even though she's so unhappy... She'd undeniably be the sole reason for her family 'falling apart', externally, from an outsider's point of view. And no one wants to hurt the people they love, even if they're hurting themselves in some way. Her behavior becomes warped some time later after more developments though.
But, well, it really all begins when they both fucking explode, but they ONLY explode after they're both pushed too far by someone else. But after the dust settles they both realize in their own ways that, point blank it sucks a lot that it happened like that, but they can either succumb to their situation for good, or frame it as something new, like they were both given an opportunity. Only by working past their fears, deterrents, and even false senses of morality will they get to really change their situations. It's about how they do so.
Hinata will explode first, because she will find out that Naruto has undeniably cheated on her with Sasuke. And my mind can't decide how exactly, but in the end, it doesn't matter how he did it, but he did, she finds out and she just breaks down about it all. Shino will follow suit when he realizes Hinata is broken up, and when he finds out exactly why... boy, his coniption will be fucking legendary. But the only person to actually see it would be Hinata, and it's alarming and distressing but especially terrifying because for a moment much too long, she could feel in Shino an intent to kill... and suddenly everything else is so miniscule for that moment because Hinata's best friend would actually fucking try to murder her husband...
W h a t
He doesn't mean to take his anger out on her, and he doesn't actually anyway, but his words and actions in the moment are horrifying and all she wants to do is calm him down, and she does it by pulling from some hidden reserve of strength she has as Naruto's Wife and Mother of his Children. Because it's all so confusing and so bad but goddamn it you will NOT fuck with her family!
Feelings don't disappear in an instant. Shino would know that better than anyone. It's a punch in the gut and really wounds him despite all logic but it's exactly what he needs to just... stop being so crazy. And because of this, after he calms down, and he takes several steps back and probably a seat, he realizes no matter how hard he tries he just can't won't (be honest Shino!) move on either. He will not because deeper still in his heart of hearts, he always knew he wanted to at least try. His main regret is that he hid behind the farce of 'true friendship' to stay close to her, but one can't blame themself for lack of confidence too. Sometimes the cookie will crumble as it may, but now... now as messed up the situation has become, his pent up frustration and regrets and his fucking desire override his logic and his inner goblin man comes out much more often and as fucked as it is, will probably try to gain Hinata's favor while she is still down and sorting through things. He's not doing it on purpose but mans just does not want to wait any longer. Because he was waiting since forever whether he admits it or not and he decides that Naruto DEFINITELY does not deserve this woman. He never did and never fucking will.
BUT... but but but, Hinata... has to just... process everything. Shino promises he was just so upset for her. What? He wouldn't kill Naruto. How could he ever? He is Fine, he is Good, he is going to go home and lay down. And he wholeheartedly apologizes for such an unbecoming reaction... Hinata chose to confide in Shino and flying off the handle like that was entirely inappropriate. Embarrassing and shameful even. Not the support Hinata obviously needs. Of course he will keep this all confidential, of course, no need to worry... She didn't need any of that, and Shino will never be able to apologize enough but all things considered, he will support her as best as he can. He is so so sorry but wants to be there for her, that is the truth.
And it really is the truth, but it still shakes Hinata to her core. That will never be a normal reaction from Shino. There is no explanation for that reaction, but Hinata still trusts him... she knows she can trust him to follow through with what he says... but it itches. It's an itchy and confusing sensation as she tries to dig further into why Shino was so crazy there for a moment? Does it mean something that Shino was so upset, almost more than Hinata even? Was Hinata not upset enough??? Meanwhile she's trying to work things out with Naruto who got caught and even though the threat of death can really put things into perspective fast, Hinata will have to realize there's a difference between loving someone, caring for someone, and being in love with someone. What exactly was she feeling in that moment? And what will she do now that Naruto is coming clean and explaining himself??
.
And on and on like that. As for Naruto and Sasuke, and Sakura, it's like this whole... thing that I'm still exploring. Because as a queer person myself, who's had a complicated journey and relationship with my own queerness, it's something I wanna address too. Because SNS is a crazy ride in itself, and Sakura, she deserves so much more as well...!!!

My big experience with Naruto fandom has taught me something I wish all Sakura/ss fans could understand: mostly haters don't dismiss both Sakura and ss because they are “dumb” or lack reading comprehension, they just do that because Sakura/ss get in the way of their fav characters and ships and since the fandom validate their bs, they feel secure in their obsessive hatred and delusion. This why there are the double standards towards Sakura and ss.
What still keeps them going on with their sick hatred is the fact that in their eyes, Sakura didn't get “punished” for her “sins” (not loving Naruto romantically, but his rival. Being the female leader, being an emotional woman and being sidelined by her own writer, as if it was her fault or as if shounen isn't a genre where the main focus is glorify men) and since these people are also bitter, they want the fans to be bitter, too. It's literally a case of projection. In Twitter since 2020, people literally create hateful accounts every fucking day just to stalking and harassing Sakura/ss fans. If they couldn't get a revenge on her in canon neither ss being as miserable as they wished, they don't want to see people showing anything positive about her/ss, since they know so well their hatred is irrational and biased.
I just wish Sakura/ss fans could stop giving them so much attention. It empowers them and it truly make them feel they're somehow brave, when they are nothing but a bunch of cowards who think harming real people over a drawing is a great move.
Sorry, I've been pretty busy recently so this ask has been sitting in my inbox for quite a while.
I agree with you, anon, at least to a degree. Most of the time it's really wiser to try and ignore the haters, it's what I do too. Mainly because from my experience it's wasted time to talk back to them, because even if your arguments are better than theirs, even if you have solid proof for your point, they won't acknowledge that anyway, let alone change their mind. After all, they're not starting the argument (or rather fight) with the intention to be convinced. They don't even want to have a constructive discussion, so I don't bother trying to start one with them.
But. The problem is, even if everyone ignored them, they wouldn't stop. And I get other fans who want to talk back to them. Most of the time they don't want the haters to completely take over a platform and I support that.
Nonetheless I am not one of those who talk back (anymore) and I try to avoid confrontations with haters completely. While I recommend doing the same, I fully support those fans who still talk back too. If I ever see a confrontation like that, I can always show my support by liking the comments of the Sakura/SasuSaku fans.

weekly taol nag 👀😘👀😘👀😘👀😘😘👀😘
i know i promised some WIP Wednesdays and like, i know it's saturday but better late than never!
Picking this particular part of a scene because it's so stark to look back at this now that we've been living through a pandemic and are post lockdown (even if we shouldn't be). This chapter has been a struggle and, originally, followed the last Lee PoV chapter, but I moved it when it wasn't flowing well because switching the order from Naruto to Shikamaru wasn't going to make an impact overall. Anyway, here's my WIP (Not) Wednesday!
WIP Wednesday: The Art of Love, Chapter Twelve
Naruto stared down at the import log, biting his lip. “Captain Yamato?” “You can go to lunch after you've finished—” “No, no, I have a question about the import log.” Yamato waved Naruto over, straightening in the high-backed chair that Naruto was still too short to fill. “What's wrong?” Naruto pointed to the blank spaces in the log from the previous month. “There was an import from Rice Field that never got logged. It was supposed to get here on the twentieth. See?” “What should you do in this situation?” Yamato had done this for every one of Naruto's questions. Instead of giving him the answer, he wanted Naruto to solve the problem himself—the way the Hokage would. “Uh, I could....” He racked his brain, trying to think up a solution that would actually work. “I could go down to the shipment facilities?”
Yamato's mouth twitched slightly, a vague admission of approval. “And?” “And check against their copy of the logs?” “And if their copy is the same?” Naruto frowned down at the duplicate log book, a headache beginning to form behind his eyes. “I don't know.” “That's all right,” Yamato said, not unkindly. “If this shipment is missing from all the logs, then you'll need to order a review of all recent shipments. They'll need to be physically checked so this shipment can be located, and the error corrected.” “But... what if the shipment never got here?” Naruto asked, frown deepening.
“That's a much bigger problem, Naruto. We'll cross that bridge when—and if—we get to it.” The bridge, as it turned out, led to a much bigger problem than a single missing shipment. Once he'd finished his check of the logs, Naruto had found enough missing shipments to send him into a panic. “Breathe, Naruto,” Yamato instructed, his own expression tight and closed off. “We'll launch an investigation into the missing shipments—” “But, Captain Yamato!” Yamato gave Naruto a severe look, silencing him before he could continue his frantic tirade. “How is panic going to help this situation?” “It won't,” Naruto admitted, forcing his shoulders to relax. He took in a deep breath. “Good. You need to think clearly and you need to act quickly. We'll launch an investigation—here's the roster of available Chūnin—and we'll sort it out.” A pit had formed in Naruto's stomach. “What do we do about the missing food though?” “Continue with the work you were assigned. We'll need those itemized reports now more than ever if we're to be prepared.” “Can't we reorder the missing shipments?” “Not while on lock down. But this is why we have emergency rations and why I'm having you do this now. We need to be prepared for the coming months.” Naruto's head gave a little throb, tension building on all sides. “Do you really think we'll be on lock down that long?” “It is not a matter of thinking or knowing, it's a matter of preparation. If you're prepared for anything, then you can handle anything.”

Yuup, I can only agree with your assessment😁 Blessed be fanfics😍
Ahh, yes... The chosen one trope does get VERY old VERY fast... Esp. if it never really gets explained...🙈 I just like to take Anakin's story as a slave boy  being taken from his mother and "freed" only for him to be told to surpress his feelings until he finally snaps and decides to tell EVERYONE (even innocents) "FU" 🙈 Like, if the focus is less on "being the chosen one" and more on the way his surroundings affect his actions, I feel like he's much more relatable🤔 (Like, who the fuck had the idea of NO EMOTIONS anyway, like, guys, Jedi, Jedi-Masters, THAT'S NOT HOW THE PSYCHE WORKS AND IT'S EITHER GONNA BACKFIRE BY EMOTIONAL EXPLOSIONS OR YOU RAISING A BUNCH OF MEGA-POWERED SOCIOPATHS!🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️) But HAHAHA, well, a full movie just about Obi? I'd be in, tho I'd still love early Master!Obi and Padawan!Ani most, just cause of all that psychological potential😍😍
Yeah, 99% of the time the main heroes kinda suck...🙈😰 Esp. nowadays...🙈 Side characters are usually SO MUCH MORE interesting and relatable😍
(Ohhh, a new song?😍 Thanks for the info, I totally need to check it out😍☺)
Ohh, what kind of tea?🤔😁
They won't, cause I did nothing wrong😁😏😌
My head is a very weird place and I have no controll of that one either, so nope, still won't take any blame😂🤣 (😫I really wanna do that, but I know I can't😭😔😖)
Aww, it was your first, too? Same!☺ And yeah, it WAS kinda weird and the fact you couldn't eaxtly choose all characters as tags was weird, e.g. charmed fanfics about Chris Halliwell were tagged with Eloise early on cause Chris wasn't a tag you could choose til later on 😅🙈
 Funny you ask now, I just finished reading Chapter 20 of Survivor a few hours ago 😍😭🙈 I knew it was coming, but uff, reading about the 75th Game's style and everyone's reactions to it was painful😭🙈
Ohhh, real life demons?😍😍😍😍
Yeaaah, it's a very weird scene thinning back now...😅😕
Haha 😂 But, aww, no, if their hermitness keeps them happy and safe, better not come out🙈🙈
Oh..Huh, okay🤔🤔 
Haha, omg, I didn't even realize it was that time of the year til I saw you post about it and I've been hooked on the giving the wolf a banana song ever since😂😂😂 IT'S SO CATCHY!
Thanks, you too! And have fun watching ESC!😁
XXX
Well, I guess, because I'm not that into the whole SW lore, that the no emotion rule were taken from buddhism aka the you can feel emotions, but you just let them go through you and let them go immediatelly. I don't remember 'how to deal with feelings' was ever explained in the movies? It was just like, feelings bad, don't have them, I think, but I'm not sure if I'm not murdering SW canon now xD
I feel like having emotions in the Jedi order was the biggest crime, while it should be dunno: shit, I had them, I acted beacause of them, did shit, damn, next time I will be better instead of FEELINGS BAD, SHAME! SHAME! SHAME! *kicks out of the order*
What can I say, i have a soft spot for stories when guys need to take care of kids and act like step dads.
Also, dunno, a thousands of years old order where a lot of intelligent, smart people were and they had no idea how to deal with a boy and his emotions? Like? Hire a fucking therapist or something?
And the villains are even better than the side characters. Also, sometimes I think the side characters are much better than the main heroes, because how not developed they are aka they are not screwed by too much author's attention.
Green tea!
This is your line of defence? ...
And still it's your head aka you are responsible (DO IT! even if you won't publish it! Do it! For soul cleaning!)
Yep. I didn;t have that problem, because like I read Gundam SEED fics and there were not that many, so i checked everything just to see if my ship was there xD On the other hand reading and searching Naruto fics was an... experience.
Yeah, this fic is a cold blood murderer. I just hope PP is going to finish it TT
Not demons, ONE specific, very powerful one.
Anything what amke sthem happy, I guess TT
GIVE THE WOLF A BANANA!!!!! I freaking love them xD
i had fun, as always xD Nothing funnier than complaining about ballads, pianos not set on fire and confusing usamericans xD

1) what's kiznavier? what's it about? 👀👀👀
2) it's funny you say that about great pretender; i made it thru 3 cases before the tension of "why won't they let edamame in on ANYTHING" got too stressful and i had to drop it wjfhfjfjkg it's a shame cos i rly do love leverage-esque stories
Kiznaiver is a really strange anime that I'm probably dropping, if only because the lackluster plot is not enough to keep me watching it. And because the characters whose arcs matter to me have gotten their episode of screentime? Maybe? Yuta...hasn't gotten a dedicated ep...hm.
So, okay, it's an anime about seven teens who get experimented on to be able to feel any pain that one of them experiences, and share it evenly. So if one gets slapped, for example, everyone takes a share of the pain. It's a very heavy handed message about world peace and empathy and opening up to others that gets explicitly preached about once an episode.
The main guy (I don't even know his name even though people keep yelling it?? That's how little I care about him uh) doesn't...feel emotions...and his whole thing is learning to feel them again...which would be compelling if I gave a damn about him. He's in a love triangle with Chidori (whose name I remember because Naruto) who is the most boring and annoying Genki Girl (tm) ever, and another emotionless person--she looks like bargain brand Esdeath from Akame Ga Kill with none of the personality, appeal, or narrative weight. He has a thing for her. Probably. And she's connected to his tragic past.
Anyway, my problem with it is that I'm only attached to two characters (Yuta and Maki). Out of a cast of eight significant ones. Yuta is fun because he's a playboy slimeball but he's also the only one with any sense of nuanced emotional intelligence. As such, he's the only one who can get through to Maki, who has so much trauma that she hides by being bitchy and cold. Also, she's queer. I appreciate Trigger for writing in a queer girl who is allowed to be imperfect and human. All in all, it's just a very strange anime that is,,,,,eeeeeeeeeh overall?
BUT HOLY SHIT ABOUT TGP
YOU'RE TELLIN ME
EDAMAME'S BEING LEFT OUT DOESN'T GET BETTER???
I like keikaku anime a lot!! When I'm allowed in on the keikaku, as the audience!! And not made the butt of the joke ;-; TGP WHYYYYYY

for @randomaccforlurking - thanks for your patience, i loved writing about this so I hope you enjoy!
if somebody asked kurama what first made him like you, he'd tell them it was your fire or your inner strength or your cunning, or something else equally intimidating, but in reality, it was the kind way you treated him. naruto was the first human to treat him with respect, but you were the first human to take it a step further - the first human to be interested in him for his own sake
he's more direct than other yanderes - kurama doesn't have any interest in the intricacies of human ways. when he decides you're his, he'll find you and tell you directly. when he feels like your friends and family are encroaching on his territory, he'll tell you they're annoying and to get rid of them
at the same time, he's a total tsundere. he isn't used to caring and being cared about so when pressed to explain why he protects you, or spends time with you, he'll say something about how "irritating" it would be to replace you, or how he finds you "tolerable"
he vacillates wildly between the two behaviors, sometimes mid-sentence. "you're too ridiculous and pathetic to survive on your own, so if anyone bothers you, let me know and i'll destroy them and everything they've ever loved."
one day he gets a good look at you and realizes that you're a pretty little thing, just his type. from then on, the same directness/denial dictates his flirtations. "i am a creature far beyond you in years, power, and prowess - you should be flattered such a being has offered to grant you a place in his bed"
at first, you assume both of these are just part of his strange attempts to cheer you up after a long day. you consider the two of you friends, as funny as that sounds. and it does sound funny, because to literally everyone outside of you, naruto, and sometimes team 7, he's a terrifying enigma
kurama either cares about people or he doesn't. he parses his affections very sparsely and selectively, and those who receive it, receive it in full force. so, strangely, he can acknowledge to himself that he's willing to kill for you before he realizes how he... feels for you
and he does kill for you. often. with great, open pleasure. thankfully, there are enough actual threats to you in a world of shinobi that he doesn't start in on those that just irritate you
at first.
but the world is getting safer, and there are others, humans who understand you intuitively in ways kurama could never hope to, humans who find you interesting and fun to be around, and he knows exactly how right they are and it makes him seethe
on the other hand, there's also those other humans, somehow even more despicable, the ones who don't know their place, such weak, bitter creatures that shouldn't even look at someone like you, let alone insult you with such poor treatment
he takes it out on you at first, with vitriolic words and cold looks, but the confusion and hurt in your eyes quickly puts an end to that. it wouldn't help anyways - you clearly aren't the problem. it's the others
so. he starts getting rid of the problem. and word gets around. he's smarter than to be obvious about it. his security in the village is too fragile as it is. he starts with threats, and if they're too stupid to adhere to his demands, he's a powerful being, physically and politically. he has them disappear, on missions, far outside of the village. when searching, all they can hope to find is a small mangled chunk of bone or a tattered piece of blackening flesh. animals, they suggest with creased brows, trained hounds, or feral wolves? when naruto glances at him, he licks his lips and shrugs
you won't live forever, you note one day with a shrug and a laugh. it's true, and always has been, but it sends him reeling. you're going to die one day - you will, and he'll be left alone again. alone and alive for who knows how long without you? he thinks of all those years he lived before you. maybe that's when it starts to dawn on him that his interest in you is beyond friendship, beyond carnal, beyond normal
either way, this is the moment he decides you're not going to die. he's one of the most powerful creatures the ninja world has ever conceived, and immortality itself has been brushed by plenty lesser. no one will take you from him - not even time itself

The Hokage’s Niece: Kakashi Hatake x Reader
Tumblr media
Description: Tsunade's niece has just arrived to the leaf village and is already making big impressions on the people. After being in a completely different village all of her life, she was able to come back after her Aunt Tsunade became Hokage. The only condition she was asked of to return back home is to train as a ninja and help protect the village. To help her train, she's assigned to Team Seven and starts making friends, doing teenage things which may or not include having a schoolgirl crush on her sensei.
Info: Kakashi is about 22 years old here, you will be 18 years old. This does take place during shippuden so the other characters like naruto, sasuke, and Sakura will be 17 years old. This will contain sexual content (student & teacher), violence and swearing. That is all.
.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.
Chapter One: Stranger Walking the Streets
Exhausted.
Sweaty.
Feet hurt.
I was so close to arriving at the village, but my whole body ached. Maybe I should take a quick break, I can't handle having anymore sweat get caught in my eyes, that burns! After making my decision, I quickly head to my right to the big tree with a lot of shade to offer. I nearly cried at how cool and refreshing getting under the tree was, I made the right choice, any longer and surely I would've passed out.
I slowly inhale and exhale as I let my body cool down, even with minimal clothing couldn't battle this heat. I really should have taken up aunt Tsunade's offer, maybe having someone escort me wouldn't have been so bad. But too bad me and my pride got in the way after imagining being paraded into the village, and letting it be known I was Lady Hokage's niece. I'd probably be painted as a spoiled brat. I would hate to be only known as the Hokage's niece and having nothing more to my name. My stomach growled as I lamented over the scenarios I imagined when arriving to the village, the leaf village that is. Might as well eat my lunch that I was saving, it sure as heck sounds delicious.
I grab my backpack, and open it to find the container that I put my food in, I decided to pack myself some riceball, and luckily I wasn't dumb enough to not forget to put an ice pack to keep it cool. I slowly take out the items, I had my rice balls, and my drink, both sure to satisfy me of my hunger and thirst. I only packed three rice balls, but I'm sure they were enough to keep me tamed for a while, and I can always get more food at the village restaurants.
As I was taking time to eat my food, I heard some the leaves in the tree rustle and see the birds fly away in the distance. I wonder what that's about? I continued to munch on my rice ball, enjoying the afternoon in the cool shade as I suddenly heard clashing nearby. I'm going to hope that what I'm imagining isn't actually going down. Whatever it may be, I wasn't going to stay and stick around to find out. I quickly pack up my things, and leave out my riceball to eat while running away from here. With a piece of rice ball in my mouth, and me sprinting as fast as I can, I hardly pay attention to my surroundings as I hear the clashing die down.
I looked back at where the noise was coming from originally, that must have been a fight going on. Thank God I got out of there when I did, I chuckled to myself, that would've been bad if I was caught up in that mess. I wince when I felt myself hit something, damn, I must have run into a tree were my initial thoughts. Laying on my butt and rubbing my head and shoulder as they were in pain, it took me a minute to register what happened as I couldn't focus.
"What's a pretty lady like you doing here?" I hear a very deep and ruff voice say. I guess I spoke way too soon, and reacted way too late.
Before I knew it, the man grabbed my arm and pulled me up so fast that I couldn't even catch a glimpse of his face. He put his arms around my waist, making sure to not leave my arms unattended, I struggled against him but he was too strong, I didn't stand a chance. I wouldn't even be in this position if I were a ninja, and hopefully my training at the leaf village will help me. That is if I even survive this disaster, I thought to myself. I looked down at his legs and noticed the belt of weapons he had around his thighs. This man was a ninja himself, and did not come here with good intentions. Crap, what am I suppose to do? I can't fight him—hell, I can't even get out of his grip! I was helpless, you wished that someone would come to your rescue and hopefully this guy's opponent was still around.
I started to scream for help, as the man forgot to cover my mouth, he tried to keep my quiet but my screams got louder, no way I wasn't going to at least try. I kept screaming for the life of me and thrashing myself around to add to the noise from my screams. I beginning to lose my voice, getting desperate, I knew the man could hear my voice falter as he began to laugh to himself. I felt something fly past above my head, and hit at the man's shoulder. That stopped both my screaming and his laughter, he started groaning in pain. I quickly see what cause that, and notice a clean slice through his clothes at this shoulder, he was bleeding. Finally someone else was here.
"Who did that?! Come out!" The man demanded.
In the distance, I could see a glowing red eye? The person who threw the knife came out from the tree. As he slowly approached, I noticed his features. He had silver hair that literally looked as if it defied gravity, he was quite tall and had a mask covering half of his face, he screamed mysterious. I quickly took notice of his clothing, the symbol on his uniform caught my attention. He was from the leaf village! Which made me even more worried because we're in leaf village territory. What is he doing here fighting the ninjas of the village? He must be really bad. And here I was, being held by that same man who's most likely going to kill me.
"Let her go," said the gray-haired ninja, he never broke eye contact with the man.
I felt a chuckle come from the man's lips, and slowly put a knife towards my throat. He didn't answer the leaf ninja.
"I'm not going to tell you again! This is between you and me, leave her alone!" He yelled.
My kidnapper essentially responded back, "Why should I let such a pretty girl go? Besides, I'm quite more interested in her than play fighting with you."
His answer seemed to piss off the ninja even more. In a blink of an eye, I felt the man lose his grip on me as he groaned in pain, what just happened? He lowered the knife and proceeded to fall onto the ground. I didn't even see anything happen, he just seem to lose his stance and strength. I looked between the ninja and the man, the ninja was still in the same spot, he didn't even move. I noticed his red eye again, and it seemed to glow more than when I first noticed it. The ninja walked over to me, adjusting his headband to cover his eye. I stood there frozen as he approached.
"Well looks like I won't have to deal with him for while," he said. He the kicked the guy, he was out cold basically.
He noticed my lack of response, "Are you alright? Being in that type of situation is never fun."
"Yes, I think I'm alright. Thank you," I say finally finding my voice again.
I quickly dust myself off and get myself together. I run over to where my backpack is, thanking the Lord that I didn't lose it. My stomach growled even louder than before, almost being kidnapped sure makes you hungry. I sit down, put my backpack in my lap after retrieving my lunchbox, I had two rice balls left at least. I sigh over the fact that my first rice ball was done for once I felt the man grab me, making me toss it to the ground, I look over to the remaining pieces on the dirt. I hear footsteps approach me, and it startled me slightly but then I remembered the leaf ninja, I should probably thank him about a hundred times more for saving my life.
"Got any extras?" I look up and see him pointing at my lunch.
I nod slowly, and extending out my lunch box to give him my remaining rice ball. He takes it, and turns away to eat it. He probably didn't want to show his face to a stranger, understandable. We both eat our food in silence before I break it.
"Thank you again for saving me, I didn't stand a chance against him," I say.
"It's not a problem, I had some unresolved business with him anyway, he just gave me more of reason to kick his ass," he chuckled, and I could hear the slight munching of food coming from him.
"I'm assuming you're from the leaf village?" I ask, maybe he can show me the way there.
"You are correct, I was taking a stroll outside the village when I found him lurking around," the ninja says, gesturing his head to the man on the ground.
He finishes eating, pulls up his mask and turns to face me. As I look at him, even with the mask on, I can tell he's quite attractive. I wouldn't mind having a cute ninja escort to the leaf village.
"Is there any chance you can continue to be my knight in shining amor? I really need to get to the leaf village quickly," I teasingly ask.
The ninja looks visibly flustered as he was not expecting that, but he nodded in agreement.
"I was heading back there anyway." He starts beginning to walk away.
I pack my things, and put my backpack on. As I get up, I feel a sharp pain in my thigh. I wince and grab my leg, the ninja looks back at me worried. I look over at my leg, and see a cut there at the side. The man must have accidentally cut me when he fell down, and I probably didn't even notice since I was terrified and confused during the whole altercation. I put pressure on my thigh and the ninja softly touched my shoulder.
"Are you okay? What happened?" He questions.
"I think the guy cut me and I didn't even notice," I say in pain. I try to walk it off but I can barely walk.
The ninja stops me, and places me on his back, "Don't strain yourself, I'll take you back like this," he assured me.
I don't say anything in response but just wrap my arms around him, as he starts heading towards the village. I softly rest my head on his shoulders as he passes by the trees in the forest. It shouldn't be that long until we reach the village, especially since this silver-haired ninja is quite fast. He felt warm and cozy, so hopefully we didn't arrive too quickly.
                      .・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.
The silence that fell upon was soon interrupted by the ninja speaking.
"You know, I'm quite curious... what's your name?," He asks me.
"Oh, it's (y/n). What's your name since we're asking questions now?"
"Kakashi Hatake, from the Leaf Village as you know," he said with a smile.
His first and last name had a nice ring to it. I liked it, I decided. I pulled myself closer to him as I felt myself slowly start to slip, as I did so he tightened his grip on me.
"Got anymore questions, Kakashi Hatake?." I hear a soft stifled laugh come from him.
"To be honest, I'm wondering why a girl like you is  going to the Leaf Village—" He quickly stops the words flowing from his mouth, probably noticing the flirtatious tone he had. "—You know for safety reasons, in case I have to fight you now instead of later."
"My family wants me to learn how to be a ninja," I sheepishly say.
It was a bit embarrassing that I was eighteen years old, when most beginner ninjas aren't even teenagers yet!
"Ninja, huh? So you're going to be training at the Leaf Village?," he questions.
"Yeah, I'm not sure how long the process takes but I hear that it's a long process."
"That you are quite right, it's rigorous. Sure you're up for it?" Kakashi asks me worryingly.
"Well sadly, I can't always have a cute silver-haired ninja randomly show up and save me all the time," I tease some more, and I see him face the other way. He was blushing I knew it!
"Who knows, maybe I can always be available for you," he teases back.
Now it was my turn to blush, I let out a quiet chuckle. I was not expecting him to flirt back.
"Maybe I would very much like that," I softly whispered in his ears.
Kakashi was going to respond to what I said before, he started slowing down and informed that we have arrived at the Leaf Village. He carefully puts me down, and we walk together as we approached the gates. I noticed two men guarding the place. They waved at Kakashi but soon had a confused look on their faces as they saw me.
"Who's the girl, Kakashi?" The one with a toothpick yelled out.
Kakashi sighed, clearly not wanting to answer but did anyway, "She's here to train."
They both nodded, and waved their hands to let us know we could pass the gates. I was soon greeted with how the Leaf Village looked like. There were a lot of shops, and I saw little kids running around playing, older people were taking strolls and shopping, and overall the atmosphere felt warm and cozy. It was very welcoming, you usually didn't feel this with every village, I was starting to like the village already. Although Kakashi and I didn't speak as we walked through the streets, I could tell he wanted to keep me in his presence and I felt the same way, he had this inviting feeling towards him.
We soon began to have small talk, and I noticed that people were staring at us. I'm not sure if I'm going crazy but maybe Kakashi is a big hot shot here in the village, I definitely wouldn't be surprised if he was, he seemed pretty amazing to me. But the stares, as the more I noticed it, the creepier it was. Maybe I should ask him.
"Kakashi, are people staring at us?" I bluntly ask.
"Yeah they are, they've been doing it since we've walked past the gates but I don't really mind," Kakashi says calmly, this clearly didn't affect him.
"Do you know why?"
"Probably because you're the first girl I've been seen with who's not been arrested," He answers.
"Oh." It was all I could say.
We still walk, and then it dawns on me, I'm suppose to meet up with Tsunade as soon as I got to the village. Shit! She's probably worried, I was already running late before I almost got kidnapped but she's most likely panicking inside if I don't show up anytime soon! I'm sure Kakashi wouldn't mind taking me to her.
"Um, Kakashi—" He looks at me. "—Is there any way you could bring me to Lady Hokage's office, I really need to see her."
"I was needing to head over there anyway, I need to fill out a report about that man we encountered outside the village," Kakashi explains.
Before I knew it, he's picking me up once again and is running by everyone. All I see are quick flashes of people's faces as they notice what Kakashi is doing. I wasn't expecting my first day at the village to be like this. I can smell food in the air as he passes by a ramen shop, and my stomach growls a bit. I hope he didn't hear that.
Soon enough, we're at the building where Tsunade is. He lets me down once again, and I give him a puzzled look about why he gave me another piggyback ride.
"Your cut." He points to the cut on my leg.
I forgot about that, I should probably get it checked out by Tsunade when I see her. At least it doesn't hurt as much as it did when we both noticed it.
"We should probably go together... since you know, you need to see her and so do I" Kakashi says quietly.
"I like that idea." I smile at him.
Kakashi softly blushes at that and so do I at his reaction. I wouldn't mind if he stuck around. We both began to walk inside. Hopefully Tsunade does not kick my ass for being late, or for being stupid enough to almost get kidnapped.

Next chapter will be up on Friday (04/10) or earlier, I hope you enjoyed this chapter!

Neji Hyuuga - My favorite mouth.
Tumblr media
~ Giphy isn't not mine~
I hope that all you enjoy!! Send your ideas!
All I cherished when I arrived from a mission was to take a good shower to remove all impurity and sleep like a rock. And I'd do that if it wasn't for Hinata pissing me off to a House Shower.
“I hate you for this you know?” I said laughing walking with her and Neji.
"Ah Y / N, you look like your mother" Neji said snapping with my face and I looked at him angrily. "Everyone is going" He continued smiling and for a moment I pictured him in the place. Okay. Maybe we should stop these thoughts.
"Ok! But I'm very sleepy!" I replied bitterly, entering the house accompanied by the two.
"It will be nice, come on, I'll take you to tea later" Neji replied and Hinata agreed. We went in and met with everyone, boys and girls parted for the sadness of my fertile imagination. Really, they were all here, Ino, Sakura, Tenten, Hinata and me. I sank into the water wanting to die there, on the other side we could hear the noise of the boys.
"You look like you died!" Said Ino looking at me. I agreed with her making a thumb down.
"I am, the enemy shielded me for a Tenten attack," I pointed at the girl who looked at me apologetically. "It's alright Tenten, accidents happen all the time."
"I know that," she replied. "Just that I overreacted in the attack and your body must be really sore, I don't know how you're standing."
"I think sometimes you forget who my mother is, I study some medical jutsu with her at home, we never know what might happen," I said shrugging, my mother was the master of Ino and Sakura, the fifth. Hokage. My fayher was Jiraya, you must finally think they got along but no, on a night of my mother's sadness for her beloved Dan, she and my father drank a lot and it resulted in my birth 9 months later. My father had died a few months ago, so I'm trying to get on with my life preparing for war.
I took a deep breath remembering what happened, Neji and Naruto helped me to the extreme, the first knew exactly how I felt to lose my father, had already gone through it. Already Naruto suffered along with me, how often I accompanied them to receive information or something greater, he was like a grandson to my father.
"It's because they float," I heard Hinata say and started laughing at Sakura's face.
"You're the biggest of us friend, maybe someday I'll pass you or maybe I'll pull daddy's family" I frowned making everyone laugh, before I could say anything we heard the noise of something breaking, we looked up seeing the ceiling give way. In a second I put on my shorts, covering myself with a towel since I couldn't find my shirt, looked at the floor and found Rock Lee, and at the door the boys looking at them very angry. Before I could do anything, Lee was running out of the house, I felt bad for him. Holding my breasts I reached for my shirt but didn't find it until Neji surrendered, I noticed his embarrassed look from under his scowl. He was too respectful to take the moment to take a look.
I scolded myself the minute I thought that, turned my back on, quickly putting on my shirt and running after Rock Lee. I saw Naruto get in front of him before anyone knocked and I did that too.
"Girls, pay attention! Lee would never do that!" I pointed to the boy who smiled at me, smiled back when I turned around and noticed that all the boys were looking straight at my breasts, which now due to wet body were hard, appearing lightly on the light colored blouse.
I took a deep breath and was not ashamed.
"Never seen breasts? If you want I show" I said called everyone's attention.
"It won't be necessary, I think we all learned," Naruto said, and turned to Lee, showing Sakura's bra clinging to his towel.
"Sakura is arrested" I spoke fast "He did not catch" I continued but it was too late, because the woman had already hit Naruto, before she punched another I held her hand, making her snort. Sakura walked away from the house, I rolled my eyes at the behavior and turned to the boys.
"Boys, the view is very nice but I think you want to keep a little of everything you're showing" I said bastard and they widened their eyes, touching the situation they were in the street. I joined in the laughter as the boys tried to get home as soon as possible, Hinata stared at me laughing at my scared face at Neji and Shikamaru's physique.
"I died and God took me to heaven" I said putting a hand on my forehead making a drama. "I'm impacted, I could kiss, literally," I said excitedly.
"Y / N!" - Tenten scolded laughing.
"What? You think, I say. I really could lose my mouth from kissing so much. I'm in love," I said entering the house, we returned to our ward to pick up the things we had forgotten.
"You say that but you know you have a favorite mouth," teased Tenten and I ignored it.
"True, it's no use lying" Hinata continued and I laughed
"My favorite mouth doesn't do that kind of thing, it's very focused," I commented faking crying, increasing the laughter.
"No, I also want to know who it is" complained Ino
“What do you mean you don't know?” Said Hinata, I looked at her showing tongue.
"You are great friends!" I mocked and they laughed.
"Okay, I'll tell you," Tenten announced. "She's falling for Neji's mouth, or all of him."
"Tenten!" - I fought with her "I hate you" I complained and the three laughed.
"How didn't I realize before? It's so obvious," said Ino, patting her forehead.
"Unfortunately he doesn't want me!" He said pouting. "And for the record, my crush on Neji doesn't even compare to Hinata's cliff on Naruto," I blurted out seeing my friend turning red. I hugged her laughing, she laughed punching me in the arm. After gathering our things, we left the ward and went to meet Neji. The moment I laid eyes on them, the image of just a towel covering his body came to my mind and I wanted to die right there. I had no doubt that I was my father's daughter.
“Tea?” He asked and I nodded.
"I'm leaving you, I'm really tired," Hinata said making me give her a macabre look that chuckled and walked in the opposite direction, not even giving Neji the opportunity to offer to take her.
"Got a problem with that?" He asked me
"No, no, it wouldn't be the first time we had tea without Hinata's anyway" I answered but inside I was yelling hard, I could see every muscle in Neji's body in my head and I was almost asking to leave. We arrived at the tea house quickly and he placed our orders, he was always the one to ask because my taste came down to two flavors.
"Today was quite a scare" commented Neji and I agreed
"Really, when I walked into the house, I could never imagine that all my teammates would come over my breasts," I said and snorted, making Neji laugh. I looked at his strange behavior, smiled at that. Our tea arrived before we could say anything, I started to drink mine calmly, looking at his eyes all the time. Okay. What bizarre game was this? Why is he like this? What happened that I didn't understand? Lee entered the teahouse and walked over to Neji, calling him to visit Naruto.
"That would be a good idea," I commented, remembering how Naruto was alone at times. I got tired of spending time with him. "He needed his friends," I said, agreeing with Lee, giving him another smile.
"I'll just end here and meet you in a few minutes," Neji replied, and Lee agreed to run out of the house, within minutes we finished our teas and left. As my house was toward Naruto's, I walked with Neji to some extent.
"Well, now you should go and have a good time," I said, poking the man who smiled at me. I loved when he smiled at me, it was as if the world stopped for a moment. I felt Neji approach and I felt my body paralyze, his face coming every second closer to mine, and finally his mouth touched mine, kissing me so hotly. Neji's kiss was slow but exploratory, he pulled back and smiled at the mess I was at the moment.
"Your mouth is my favorite too, I just never thought it would want something from me because of Naruto, maybe I saw something that didn't exist," he said and I widened my eyes. "I'm always in the mood, just like my body after all, I also have a cliff for you," he said and gave me another kiss before leaving and planting me in the middle of the street with a beautiful smile on my face and a heart running like crazy.

hello! i know it's a bad idea to engage in any shipping discourse but for the sake of constructive criticism, i asked an sns shipper if she thinks there's atleast potential in ss if ever sakura had that capacity to stand up to sasuke and if she wasn't as much fixated on him during shipuuden and the war arc. i even brought up the wasted opportunity of sasuke vs sakura that was shown in the game. the sns shipper gave a very structured and well-versed answer and i do agree with some of her points. i'm not even anti-sns and i understand the support this ship gets. but this person really hates sakura. so her answer to my question if ss has potential is straight up NO. hate is an understatement. she explicitly said she DETESTS sakura and ss xD. granted, her hatred is valid since sakura's writing is very flawed and inconsistent. what i didn't like was when she said why am i trying to change sakura's personality (her standing up to sasuke whether physically or verbally) when "she's constantly on heat when he's around". gosh, i really wanted to retaliate here and say it's called freakin character development. i mean, that's what she's mainly hated for right? the fact that she's obsessed and a pushover when it comes to sasuke. having that change especially during the war arc doesn't mean she's out of character, it means development. but gah, sakura haters are really hard to argue with so i just stayed silent.
to briefly summarize, her main point of argumentation is that sakura was toxic to both naruto and sasuke. sasuke's relationship with naruto is more defined than whatever he had with sakura. she brought up ss's pt.1 moments and said that sasuke would do the same to naruto, if not even better. as for naruto's case, sakura was a mean bitch and was so unfair to him throughout the series. simply put, even if sns has questionable elements, they are more organic and healthy than sasusaku.
this got me thinking. between sasunarusasu and sasusaku, despite both having toxic elements, i think the reason why there are relatively more sns shippers is because there's balance. compared to sakura, sasuke has shown more consideration towards naruto and we all know naruto cares for sasuke just as much and he isn't afraid to stand up to this guy.
idk what i'm even trying to ask here. i guess i'm just ranting lol. i've always seen your comments in youtube vids defending sakura and ss and i know you have an extensive knowledge of the naruto manga in general. you could only imagine how shocked i am when i found out you're a male. it's really rare to find someone like you. :)
anyways, i just feel so disappointed and pressed lmao. ss shippers couldn't catch a break from haters. like yea, some of us know it has shit writing in the canon and explanations regarding their relationship in the series is very limited. i already accepted the fact that they are underdeveloped and was borderline toxic. but then, between kishimoto's pitiful inability to write female characters properly and SP's biased treatment towards sasusaku plus the manga's main narrative focusing on naruto and sasuke, i just feel like it's kinda unfair for antis to shit on ss shippers when in reality, most of us just hold onto it because of nostalgia. most sasusaku shippers came to be when they were very young. i even found comments saying they started shipping them when they were 6 or 7. in my case, i was 12 lol.
it's kinda unfair since sns has the upperhand bcoz the series is mainly about them. naruhina has retcons and SP and what does ss have? small pt.1 moments, headcanons, fanons and to top it off SP's biased ass shitting on it. the ss fandom isn't perfect and has its fair share of immature stans as well, but i'm still glad that didn't stop authors and artists from making content. ss has got some of the best fanfictions, fanarts and doujinshis. i just wished antis won't attack them as much.
anyways, i'm not even asking a specific question. i just ranted. i just needed to get this out of my system. sorry for that 😅
Hey! It's been a long while since I got asks like this lol! Once tumblr went all anti-nsfw a few years ago, we all kinda migrated to Twitter for our SS/Anime cravings tbh but I'm glad and flattered you decided to ask me on my thoughts! :)
I won't write long as again, tbh, I'm kinda retired from debating/arguing with antis on things of SS/Naruto/Etc (unless I'm simply too triggered to let it go lol. You've already probably seen my long Sakura video so I won't go too much into details of what I already covered with Sakura's character. But to answer you, I'll keep it to the point.
It's ok of course to say Kishi's writing is flawed, I mean he is human and we know Naruto has holes. Every manga/story does of course. When it comes to SS, I personally bring it to this: Sasuke and Naruto's relationship is NOT Sasuke and Sakura's relationship. And that's (imo) ok. Sasuke and Naruto obviously have a bond only they have. Both lonely and orphaned, rivals with each other, haters to brother, you know it all. But Sakura is different. She's simply a normal, head-strong and caring girl. Kishi wanted to write a normal girl, and he did a darn well good job, because just like normal girls (or people in general), they're imperfect. That's why she first appealed to me.
Anyway, to the point, SS is pretty easy to follow. Sakura likes Sasuke....what's the problem? Where's the toxicity, lol. Sure she fangirls over him as a 12 year old girl, but again, Sakura is normal. Most girls I knew that age did the same thing. Most BOYS I knew were super...*cough* ready to be with girls (*cough cough*, puberty, everyone, *cough*). Sasuke is cool and confident. Sakura lacked confidence, so naturally she was drawn to Sasuke. Sasuke at first found her annoying (as he did with Naruto too) but as the became a team, she bonded. SS' bond is NOT NSN's bond. SS's bond is built upon a simply caring basis. Sakura always cared for Sasuke, and Sasuke always was protective of Sakura. Forest of Death, Sand Invasion, etc...add in the angst of Shippuden (nobody can tell me one was better than the other during Shippuden, Sasuke was 'bout to axe everyone while in darkness lol), blank period bonding, and then Boruto. There it is in SIMPLE terms.
As far as "standing up" to Sasuke...not sure where this person is coming from....again, NSN is NOT SS....Sakura has stood up to Sasuke at times. In the FOD where she indirectly called him a coward, when she pleaded with him to not fight in the Prelims and threatened to tell the proctors of the curse mark, trying to stop him from leaving Konoha., etc. If she was a "doormat", she would have said "Ok Sauske, you do whatever you want, it's all ok my love!" That was chapter 3 Sakura. A LOT of haters can't move beyond that chapter tbh...moving on. The main thing is, she wasn't STRONG enough to stop him by FORCE. She wasn't written to. Sure I woulda liked some angsty moments of them fighting, TRUST ME, you already know. But Kishi wanted the fighting to mostly be between Naruto and Sasuke, as most battle Shonen go. It's Goku and Vegeta, Deku and Bakugou, you name it. She was written to LOVE him unconditionally. And despite Kishi's misses here and here, it's clear as day to many people that they do indeed, love each other. Sarada is a product of years of redemption, forgiveness, and understanding between SS (which is....literally some of the themes of Naruto....Zabuza...Haku...Gaara...Pein...Obito....list goes on...).
And of course Naruto and Sasuke's relationship got more spotlight. They're essentially the Shonen "duo" like I explained before with Goku and Vegeta. It's a common tope which can be a bit annoying imo since other characters get shafted, but they're gonna be seen more by the public. At the end of the day, Kishi modeled NSN after his relationship with his BROTHER....that was one of Naruto's main story plots. AGAIN, OF COURSE it's gonna be pushed and seem like it's more "balanced"...it's a battle Shonen, not a love story lol. The love stuff is sprinkled in. This isn't a Shojo. If it was, SS would be the main focus (or...I guess NSN if Kishi WANTED to go that route).
So to finish off, you're right with the SP thing. But it can't be helped. If people wanna say NSN has more "development", let them. At the end of the day, they're shown more to the viewers because they're the Goku and Vegeta of Naruto. They push the narrative, not a romance. They're Kishi's go-to boys. They're the essential main character and rival. It's nothing new. But you know what else? They're. NOT. A. COUPLE. SasuSaku is, and again, romance is SPRINKLED in. It's N O T a Shojo and not the main focus. Honestly...the arguments that NSN shipper used are a bit weak knowing full well that SNS represent Kishi's brother and himself.
I mean...tldr, I could just say "Kishi and his bro are Naruto and Sasuke. SO nah bro, NSN has no romantic development. I wasn't meant to lol."
Typed longer than I thought, but I hope this helped! At the end of the day, ship SS in peace. We have an amazing fandom for the most part with wonderful content and we ain't stopping anytime soon :)
