#Haruno Sakura centric

[saneandrocking]

Do y'all think about Sakura, the freshly made genin little girl who had only few months ago realized she needed to be so much more than what she could be at the moment in front of the chance to not only die but half of her team die in front of her too, alone? Alone in a village full of disdain for her teammates, one that she watched get away from the barrier of said village in a night she would remember everyday untill she saw him again? Alone without the blonde kid she only recently learn to understand and to care for, who left with a promisse that she would discover to be one more reason for sadness in his heart? Alone without her teacher to guide her through the feeling of grief...while she was having her body changed by a new routine to become useful and, in some way, to not be left behind again? Cause I do. I think a lot about her.

Fanbinding: Dirt and Ashes, or: The One-and-a-Half Body Problem by @tozettastone

In which Sakura carries half of Hidan across two countries, leaving a trail of blood, bodies, and other people's legs.

I made this book for @aetherseer as part of an exchange we did, and I had such a great time making it. I saw this fic on their list and remembered reading it ages ago and was like I CAN DO SOMETHING WITH THAT! and here it is.

The cover is Colibri bookcloth, handpainted with acrylic (all of the lettering is freehand- easy when the font you choose is irregular). @pleasantboatpress suggested including a quote on the spine since the title wasn't working there, so I got to add the absolutely banger quote from this fic "Your pain is sacred. Your suffering is beautiful."

For the edges, I used fluid graphite and polished and waxed them. On the endbands I used my Japanese silk thread for the first time (its a dream tbh).

For the typeset, I leaned in hard on the blood sacrifice aesthetic, creating the Jashinist symbol for the front page (and also the cover) and using a font aptly called "Bloody Scratch." You can't see them here but for paragraph breaks there are little scythe.

@tozettastone, if you would like a copy I would be happy to make you one!! (I think my ask to you got eaten, feel free to dm).

Akatsuki! Sakura au  🌸  Randomly got inspired one day with this thought while I was out with my mom and I just had to draw it. Didn't rush it though and only worked on this during my free time. This is also my second attempt bc I just wasn't vibing with the first one. It bothered me for 2 days until I finally gave in and re-drew it.

I don't like recording myself and I still haven't figured out timelapses so I just saved each stage separately and put them in one video ☝️ ☝️ *cough* Lineart stage is still my favorite.

This was originally supposed to stay as grayscale, except for the eyes, but I decided to overlay it with color in the end.

'The tree is rotten to the root'

[saneandrocking]

A parte mais interessante da personalidade da Sakura, o que pode ser tanto uma eventualidade (vendo como o Kishimoto parece ter fobia a desenvolvimento de personagem), quanto uma ironia da obra, é que ela é, essencialmente, sozinha. E, mesmo assim, quando mencionada está sempre associada a outro personagem. Essa é pra mim a tragédia pessoal dela.

Como criança, ela sofre uma rejeição baseada na sua aparência e você pensa: nossa, Kishimoto não sabia mesmo o que fazer do passado dela e resolveu só dizer que ela sofreu bullying. Nem os pais dela nós vemos no mangá. E aí entra a Ino, a rivalidade e relação mais essencial para a construção da personalidade da Sakura ao longo da série ao meu ver, mas que para todos os efeitos se torna mais uma pessoa que a Sakura vê se afastar (e se afasta).

Durante o clássico, ela é um plano de fundo para a relação do Sasuke com o Naruto. Ela está lá, ela faz parte da dinâmica, mas ela não está ativamente envolvida na forma como esses dois reagem um ao outro. Isso não é dizer que os dois não tem obviamente laços com ela, porém, inegavelmente, a presença dela não é uma força capaz de promover uma mudança significativa. Para constar, o Kakashi também não é de muita ajuda: tudo (e isso é bem limitado) que vemos da Sakura vem de alguma coisa que ela fez fora do foco do enredo que nós não vimos acontecer. Obrigatoriamente, para isso fazer sentido, ela aprendeu sozinha.

Quando Sasuke deixa a vila e depois Naruto faz o mesmo, é Sakura quem fica. Não Sakura e Kakashi, mas sim só Sakura. O time 7 não basta se não tiver um dos dois outros, porque a Sakura, mais uma vez, é uma peça essencial na trama, mas não na dinâmica. O crescimento que ela tem sob a tutela da Tsunade com menos tempo de treinamento que todos seus outros contemporâneos não é tratado como fruto de um prodígio, mesmo sendo. Ela se torna a personagem feminina mais forte do anime sozinha, sem nós, visualizadores, ou o time 7, para ver isso acontecer. Eles só vêm o resultado.

E, embora isso seja mais uma percepção individual, existe uma complexidade não intencional nisso. Talvez eu pense assim por ela estar num time não só marcado por prodígios e poderes herdados, mas pela separação que cada um deles experimenta dos outros personagens e da própria sociedade. O Kakashi abraça essa diferenciação, o Sasuke utiliza dela como motor e o Naruto procura dissuadir a todos que ela não existe - mas a Sakura simplesmente é solitária e independente de quanto tempo passe, ela permanece assim. Tentar pertencer ao time 7 é um recurso que parece muito mais interessante sob essa perspectiva também, porque ela de fato quer entender o Sasuke e o Naruto num nível mais profundo, mas ela não constrói o mesmo tipo de laço que eles tem por inúmeros motivos.

Sakura Haruno basicamente se constrói sozinha para ser sozinha.

[No Uchiha Massacre]

cw: hospital, arguing, mention of an injury, mention of poison. Some implied feelings(sort of) ANGST.

Part2 , Part 3

“Where do you think you're going?!”

Sakura's voice snapped, glaring at another of what she called "difficult patients." The man didn't seem fazed by the medic-nin's irritation, instead, he was finishing putting on his second sandal. He had been here far too long for his taste. Four days, sure, but it was already four days too long.

“Home.”

She clenched her jaw. Hell no! He'd just had surgery a few days ago, there's no way he's leaving now.

“No.”

“What do you mean 'no'?”

“You can't leave, Itachi. I didn't give you permission to do so. You're coming out of a pretty heavy operation. You need to rest.”

Itachi narrowed his eyes, a wave of displeasure washing over him.

“I'm fine. And I have some business that can't wait.”

“If you mean missions, I've cancelled them.”

“You what?”

If he was displeased at first, now he was downright annoyed. He didn't understand the point of occupying a bed he no longer needed. He was feeling better, so as far as he's concerned, he could leave.

“You heard me.” She crossed her arms over her chest. “Don't give me that look.”

Itachi closed his eyes, pinched the bridge of his nose and took a deep breath.

“Sakura, you had no right to do that. It's not your decision to make. I appreciate your concern, but it is not necessary. It's up to me to say whether or not I can handle a mission.”

“Like hell I can't! I'm the one who had to fix the damage done to your body, so I assure you that I'm in a very good position to make that kind of decision. Besides, Shishou agrees with me.”

“You have already discussed this with Hokage-sama?”

She shrugged as Itachi took a step forward, heading for the door. Too bad for him, Sakura blocked his way.

“What do you think you're doing!?”

“I'll go talk to the Hokage. Now step aside.”

“She won't agree with you on this, Itachi. She trusts my judgment and if I tell her you need to be taken off the mission roster, you will be.”

“What right do you have—”

She cut him off ;

“In my capacity as a doctor. I outrank you in the chain of command when we are within these walls. Deal with it.”

Sakura probably had a secret death wish, how else could she explain addressing one of the most feared ninjas in the village like that? Fuck, feared even in several nations! But she couldn't let him leave the hospital. He had almost not made it. Of course, she had managed to save him, but, the amount of poison found in his chakra system was nothing to sneeze at. She could see that he was irritated. She knew him well by now and normally she wouldn't have been so insolent with him, but, as she had said, she was the boss in this hospital. En plus, his father would be sure to ostracize her if anything happened to his precious and talented older son.

“This is ridiculous.”

Stubborn as he is, Itachi wasn't going to let it happen. That's why he was determined to go and discuss it with the Hokage. He respected orders, Itachi submitted to Tsunade Senju's authority because it was his duty as a Loyal Shinobi of Konoha, but that wasn't going to stop him from using his persuasive skills on the woman. He had done it before, and he's still alive to talk about it, isn't he? He had dodged the cup of Sake she had once thrown at him, he could very well do the same with her stapler. His decision made, Itachi headed for the door once again.

“Ita—”

“For God's sake, stop it! You are really annoying me.”

The words had come out of his mouth without him realizing it. He was exasperated and the days spent in that hospital bed plus the rest were getting on his nerves.

Sakura gasped, forgetting even what she was going to say, caught off guard by his outburst. A long silence ensued.

Those words again...

Always these words.

It stung.

It hurt. A lot.

She felt the familiar sting of tears at the corners of her eyes. An ironic smile tugged at her lips. Apparently, it ran in the family. She remembered all those times when she was younger, Sasuke had said those same words to her. It had always hurt her a little, but this was worse. Because Itachi was not unaware of how Sakura had been treated by his little brother. He even intervened once. Of course, as Sasuke had grown up, he had eventually apologized, in his own weird way, sure, but he had apologized. She had forgiven him. Because that's what she does : She forgives. She had her heart on her sleeve.

It doesn't mean that she forgets, but she cares about Sasuke and that time was already long gone. She knew why Sasuke had been so hard on her, he had explained the reasons, the pressure he felt to live up to his father's expectations, the pressure he put on himself to be as good as his brother. He had simply vented his frustration where he could. It wasn't fair, but she was the one who took the brunt of it. And she understood, really. But Itachi, what was his excuse? She’d talked to him about it. They had talked about it in private. She had told him about that part of her life, as silly as it might seem to others to feel hurt by mere words, but he had understood. He had even apologized for his brother's attitude and assured her that she was far from annoying or weak.

She thought he, more than anyone else, understood the weight of those particular words. Apparently, they were just empty words. She should have known better. Never trust what a man says when he's lost in pleasure and between your legs. Serves her right.

Foolish little girl.

The silence stretched, but Sakura refused to show even a hint of weakness. She would not cry. She took a breath and grabbed the clipboard on the small table and scribbled down some instructions and a prescription and then signed the discharge form, which stated that he was being discharged against medical advice. She then handed him the paper with a blank look.

“As you wish then, Uchiha-san.”

Itachi's eyes widened slightly, surprised to hear his last name, by the change in her demeanor. And he knew. He just knew. He had fucked up.

"Sakur-" he tried to reach out to her, but she shied away, cutting him off with that cold, professional tone. So impersonal compared to earlier.

“Please, leave. I still have patients to attend to. I wish you a speedy recovery.”

He sighed. He knew better than to insist. This was not the right time. He took his discharge and walked to the door. He paused, his hand on the doorknob.

“I'll see you later.” He said softly and it almost sounded like a question.

The only thing Itachi could see was her back. There was no indication that she had heard him, and if she had, she didn't acknowledge him.

When the door finally shut and she no longer felt the ANBU captain's chakra nearby, she let a choked sob echo through the empty room.

Maybe it was true what they say: words hurt more than blows. And the Uchihas really knew how to hurt her.
