what if i was devoted to you as a knight is to his king and became your right hand and sword and i was ready to lay my life for you and your dreams
what if i was devoted to you as a dog is to his owner and i would attack and maul anyone who dared to touch you but i’d also bite and claw you if you ever tried to leave me
[ID: A Naruto mangacap. Flashbacks show Naruto grinning cheerfully and then grimacing with effort as he stabs a poisoned wound with a kunai to bleed out the poison. Kakashi says, “... Tries his hardest, hoping someone will notice and give him a kind word or a pat on the back. That's his dream, and he's risked his life for it.”
Inari looks down with abashment, thinking about his father. Kakashi looks down, expression weary, and says, “I think one day he must have just gotten fed up with crying.” End ID]
