#Sakura-centric

[saneandrocking]

Sometimes being a Sakura fan and looking for a fanfic is difficult. Some of you don't like any aspect of her as a character and it shows.

And some of you have never watched the anime or read the manga, which makes every attempt to recreate the character and her trajetory horrible.

And some of you should sort out your feelings about Sasuke, because I'm tired of reading fanfics where the author is dissing a traumatized and neglected 12 year old. If you need to turn all of Sasuke's attitudes into an insult to Sakura, put it in the tags. Same goes for Naruto, you're so edgy, congratulations!

And some of you, finally, need to stop investing in the tactic of giving Sakura a tragic past to fix Kishimoto's sexist presumptions in the construction of how Sakura acts.

Honorable mention to the fact that you could not exclude the importance that all the people on her team had in, like, the whole story.

Make an OC. Or tag it as OOC.

UPDATE: "Ouroboros" - Chapter 8

Eventual Sakura/Kakashi | Rating: MA-E | Chapters: 8/?

Three years have passed since the fourth war. Konoha has transformed, and team seven along with it. Kakashi has settled into his role as the sixth Hokage, Sakura runs the first ever Children’s Mental Health clinic with Ino, Naruto has taken on a genin team and is engaged to be married, and Sasuke… Well. Sasuke is far away from the village. At the end of their first turbulent year together Sakura asks Sasuke for a break and he readily agrees, departing Konoha that same night. But when he returns an old enemy returns with him, and Sakura is thrown into a situation she couldn’t be more ill-prepared for: trapped fourteen years in Konoha’s past, with no idea how to return home.

For the past three years, there is only one person Sakura hasn’t been able to talk to. It would have been easy, to just move close to him when she sees him, chalk up the courage to say something witty that he’d easily respond to.

Like before…

And yet, he runs. He always does.

When a stranger starts to show up in Konoha, his camera at the ready for landscapes and skies, and acting as if they’d already met before, Sakura tolerates him at best and is on guard at worst.

But is it really this easy to get close to someone new?

Summary:

No one seemed to find it odd when little Haruno Sakura threw herself smack dab in front of a Chidori and Rasengan. Not even Kakashi stopped to wonder.

(He really should have.)

Been reading this fic since its early days and just went back to it--the first thing I did when the Naruto hyper fixation hit again. It has a couple of typos but the author encourages people to point them out and updates pretty frequently (definitely more than me lol).

This fic is 100% a must-read for Sakura stans!!

Story: Red Lillies

I posted a new chapter and would like to read your thoughts ☺️

[spield]

There's a fanfic like this!! I can't remember the title but the closing paragraph of it was when Team 7 retook their team picture and Sakura said; "Don't worry, I'm still the prettiest."

That time Sakura threw herself in between Naruto and Sasuke's rooftop fight and Kakashi wasn't there to stop them in time.

Tsunade was able to save her hearing and most of her nerves, but her eyes were a very unfortunate casualty.

Now she's a civilian and has to figure out what to do with herself.

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).

I have emotions! It’s not all abraca-fuck-you and what have you. I have a beating heart! I’m multi-dimensional! I’m a fully-realized creation! FUCK!

@vero-valzer as Taako the Wizard from The Adventure Zone

Realized Tumblr and its smol but rad and dedicated TAZ Fandom might be the right place to share my Taako cosplay that I'm proud of and really enjoy wearing. 🌂✨️💖

These pics span multiple years and multiple outings, featuring a few different iterations on this cosplay at this point—from conventions to Ren Faires.

It has filled my heart with glee every time I heard someone gasp and go, "Is that Taako? From T.V.?!" which gave me the opportunity to spin around and say, "Why, yeeeeeees~! ✨️" in my best Taako impression or give a tip-o'-the-hat and wave and get to see people's eyes light up and smiles spread across their faces. 💖

Thinking about Sakura

[veryblazedreamland]

Fanfics with Sakura in different AUs is my comfort😆💖. It's always Kaguya or Tobi's fault🤣

[kumeramen]

Hello I saw that u recommend AMAZING fics so if it's fine can u recommend some fics where sakura is like innocent/naive and possibly not oneshots ^^ thank you

Innocent/naive Sakura-centric fanfic~?

I could do another fanfic rec specifically for what you stated. Though I'm not so sure that I have read or know any fics of that sorts 🤔 Can innocent/naive type be similar as oblivious too? Because there are some fics I know of described like that. If you referring innocent/naive as literally innocent, I kind of have a few in mind too!

🌸📕 I don't have much though, but if anybody have some crumb of suggestions about innocent/naive Sakura fanfic of any rating, feel free to drop your recommendations!
