#and Sasuke stops and just goes ‘phew now she knows I love her’

[abby-the-druid]

Yes yes yes

And I imagine there’s *a lot* of clan specific courting that goes on but because he was little he only remembers like 0.2% of it and all of it is literally just normal things you do for another person, regardless of intent to marry. So like, he remembers his dad would ask his mom about her day, so he’s like sweating, panicked because that’s a “courting” thing and he just awkwardly asks how Sakura’s day went one evening over dinner; and she’s just excited because Sasuke-kun asked her and is interested in her so she tells him. But he’s like a whole ball of anxiety about it like brain rotting doing a “well now she knows, I asked about her day now it’s painfully obvious I’m deeply in love with her” and has no idea how ‘normal’ relationships are supposed to work.

And like Itachi and Kisame are of course stalking Sasuke (it’s what good older brothers do) and Itachi is also like “holy shit he may as well have screamed his love for her from the rooftops, they’re engaged now” and Kisame is like “Itachi what the fuck are you talking about, I ask about your day all the time?” And Itachi nearly falls out of whatever tree they’re standing in because he, too, was little when the entire murder happened and also had a very limited memory/understanding of clan courtship practices and had already assumed he and Kisame were married.

And so now Itachi and Kisame are politely arguing (like a married couple) loudly outside the house but Sasuke is entirely too burned out sharing his feelings (ie asking Sakura a singular question) that he doesn’t even notice them causing a whole commotion and Sakura notices but Sasuke doesn’t seem bothered so she just politely waved at them from the window before she leaves to go home.

Ino would be having an entire cow because her mother has taught her *all* of *all* the clans courting practices (comes with the flower shop ownership territory and what to and not to recommend based on clan customer and such) and so Sakura half mentions some of the things because they’re close again, she’s in the office and doesn’t have to prove herself anymore. And ino is like hyperventilating because Sakura doesn’t *know* but Ino can’t tell her that all of those things are courting things because then Ino definitely never has a chance and her mind is just exploded.

So when Sasuke eventually does decide to go to Oro, he has like a whole special meal planned and discusses it at length with Sakura, because that’s his future wife and he’ll be damned if he doesn’t include her because she’s an Uchiha goddamn it. And she’s obviously not super pumped about the idea of leaving Konoha, but Sasuke has for some reason decided to divulge all of this to her, and she notices he looks at her differently now, and she’s a fan of it so she agrees to go, but only on the condition they have like a billion backups plans in case anything goes wrong. And so they do, they plan and plan and plan and Kakashi and Naruto are confused at how much time the two are spending together and Kakashi nearly passes out when he sees that Sasuke had gifted her like a weapons pouch with the Uchiha symbol because he *knows* what that means.

So Kakashi is making hard eye contact with Sasuke who is just avoiding it and Sakura is just happy being with all her boys before they leave and Naruto is just Naruto and has no idea what’s going on at all. She indicates that they’re leaving the village but in no outright way and doesn’t give any indication to where. And Kakashi is nervous but he kind of reasons that if Sakura is with Sasuke he couldn’t actually get into too much trouble, because really she’s the reasonable one. She does the office work, she’s got a good head on her shoulders.

So Kakashi doesn’t say anything to anyone just kind of also vaguely says it would be cool to hear from them once in a while and offers to do a group sign up for his ninkins (I think I’m spelling that wrong) so they can secretly keep in communication and all the kids are obviously pumped about this because puppies.

So Sasuke and Sakura go to Oro. And Oro is not happy at first, that Sakura is there; but decides to let her stay because it seems like he could control Sasuke with her as collateral. But through some time, it turns out Sakura is the wild card because she didn’t come here with a purpose like Sasuke did, she came as support. So soon enough she’s like bitching out Kabuto for not keeping a clean enough lab space, and lectures him about the fact that half of his experiments are failing because he’s an idiot and letting infection happen. And he’s confused and mad about it but Oro just kind of raises an eye brow and lets her go. She criticizes kabuto’s chakra control and calls it messy one day; and he’s like you’re 12 you don’t know anything. And she huffs at him and reminds him she’s actually 13 and a half, thank you very much, and that she at least knows how to control her chakra. So he challenges her to do the fancy experiment. And she’s like, fine bitch bet.

And that’s how everyone at the base finds out Sakura is some kind of freak of nature who is *too good* at chakra control and has seemed to accidentally create her own version of medical ninjutsu. So Oro starts having her run the experiments when she turns 14 and Sasuke is just like dazed and happy in the background like ‘that’s my fucking wife.’ (They are not yet married) and Oro finds that he can neither control Sasuke or Sakura and that Sakura starts manipulating him and bullying him into doing things differently.

No longer are they conducting studies on children or kidnapped people; she creates a whole ward for mental health under the guise to Oro it’s just to understand the mind better. By this point he’s like just hands off because Sakura is scary when you question her. There is no option of Oro taking Sasuke’s body because she threatened to finish what the third hokage started and Oro laughs but she like pulls out this rare scroll that she had unearthed from deep within the lair that could undo like every one of his life saving/sustaining jutsus. And he’s like fine, you crazy girl, leave me alone.

So they graduate from Oro, both morally a little grey but way more level headed than cannon; and they go on the quest to find Itachi. They find him playing housewife in a little happy cottage with Kisame in the forest outskirts of fire nation. And before Sasuke can launch into an attack Itachi is just like ‘you have a lovely wife Sasuke’ and he’s like ‘yea I know’ and Sakura is like ‘when did you get married Sasuke-kun? We’ve been in an underground tunnel system for the better part of 3 years’ and Sasuke blushes and Itachi laughs and Kisame is like “let me talk to her, I’m the one who knows what she’s going through” so he finally explains to her that she and Sasuke have been engaged for about 4 years and her mind is blown and was like ‘but he’s never even held my hand!’

So Sasuke is kind of reconsidering beating his brother to a pulp but Itachi just ends up telling him everything and apologizing and a lot of brother angst/love happens. And they like team up and kick Madara’s ass, save Obito, before any tsukyomi can happen and they all settle in to just like start a new little Uchiha village in the forest; and Naruto visits and he’s not totally insane at not being able to save his friends because his ninkin and theirs have all kept up and Kakashi has been able to feed information to Tsunade and play Sasuke and Sakura leaving off as an infiltration mission and Danzo just has a terrible heart attack when he realizes all his evil plans are foiled just because some little pink haired girl had been placed in the office sector and like had the ability to talk to people.

There’s so much, so so much

desk nin sakura au in which, at like 13, she did too poorly on the physical part of the graduating exam and is given the choice to either repeat a year or to become a desk nin instead of a genin. she picks desk nin because at 13 she can imagine no greater embarrassment then being stuck in a class of 12 year olds and ino knowing she flunked an exam- at least this way she can pretend she wanted to be a desk nin. they're important! they do important work!

it actually turns out there aren't a ton of civilian kids in the desk nin business. if they don't make it as field shinobi they usually just drop out entirely, because they've got family businesses they could go back to instead, you know? most desk nin are from clan families whose family business is being a shinobi, but they weren't a big fan of murder at age 10 or are really big fans of making excel ninja spreadsheets. anyways what this means is they find sakura adorable and immediately adopt her. shes adorable! and shes got the filing system really quickly, how clever!

she gets put in charge of assigning the genin teams their low-ranking missions and gives ino-shika-cho the tora mission like 30 times in a row because she's a teensey bit mad with power. She initially gives team seven really nice missions to try and win over sasuke, but then he keeps showing up grumbling complaints because it wasn't a cool mission that would help him get revenge on his brother...eventually she snaps and starts giving them the tora mission instead. Be Humbled, You Brats!

she gets pissed with the hokage when he assigns team 7 the wave mission btw. and shes mad vindicated when they come back and they're like IT WAS A DISASTER. IT WENT TOTALLY ABOVE OUR PAYGRADE. she's like YEAH thats why PROFESSIONALS assign the missions not some old man whos trying to dote on his loser not-grandson!!!!!!

she uses her desk nin resources to find out where sasuke lives (forgive her the sins of being an unhinged 13 year old) and starts going to his house to bring him dinner half the week. shes not a great cook. at a certain point he takes over cooking duties and shes just there to hang out? and it takes him a month to be like. did i get tricked into dating sakura

kakashi talking to sasuke about how you need bonds with other people, with your team, and sasuke's like i HAVE bonds. me and naruto are rivals which is basically like being friends. and im somewhat engaged to sakura maybe

kakashi: who's sakura? is that the girl on our team bc i always forget her name

sasuke: no. she's this insane girl we went to the academy with who keeps giving us shitty missions to paint fences 'n stuff. i think she lives in my house now or something. naruto's in love with her

kakashi: and you're engaged?

sasuke: can we stop talking? if im late getting back she'll try to make dinner herself and i cannot have burnt rice with burnt fish for the third time this week

SAKUSA, HINATA AND BOKUTO AS DADS

-

SAKUSA

the two fo you only have one kid so far

a 3 year old girl 

you plan to extend your family soon though 👀

you already KNOW this man gets your kid every vaccination available for their age 

he is very protective over his daughter 

boys near her daughter at the playground

NOT on his watch 

he will simply scoop her up and suggest she play somewhere else 

this man doesn't care how mean it may seem

he’s not having his precious daughter surrounded by disgusting b-boys 🤮

“have they had their flu jabs? when was the last time they washed their hands? they're breathing their gross little germs too close to her”

“sakusa, they’re 3.”

sorry but no dating for your daughter 

sakusa teaches his little girl the concept of “boys have cooties” from a very young age 

this man is nothing but proud when that concept sticks with her 😈

“d/n, are you excited for pre-school?”

“daddy said there's going to be boys and boys have cooties so no 😠”

as she gets older though he does become more lenient with her and who she makes friends with 

he’ll secretly love it if you brought her to his games

he’s not huge on pda at all

but he won’t mind being caught on camera embracing the two of you when the team win 

atsumu is not allowed near your daughter when she’s a baby

“omi omiiiii why can’t i ‘ave a look t’cha daughter?”

“because she has been vaccinated and i fear your disgusting germs may be strong enough to over power it”

when she gets older though she straight up approaches atsumu on her own 

“so you’re the rat my daddy talks about a lot? you don’t look like much of a rat?”

atsumu doesn’t know whether he’s flattered that sakusa talks about him or offended that he refers to him as a ‘rat’

he won’t encourage your daughter to play volleyball

he wants her to pick her own hobbies and not feel pressured by his influence on picking an activity she’ll enjoy

secretly hopes your daughter takes up an individual activity like painting or something to keep away from other germ infected kids

but if your daughter does happen to pick a team sport he doesn't complain

she just has to wash her hands before she comes home and have a shower when she comes in

he is a very very proud father 

he may not be very expressive about it 

but he absolutely brags about his kid to other people

“my son won maths star of the week!”

“yeah? well my daughter won student of the year, highest achieving in her class and had 4 boys confess to her this week so”

he does make sure his daughter knows he is very proud of her despite his petty bragging

anything she does he takes pride in her 

it’s her who makes him want to have another kid

so get ready for round two y/n because when sakusa wants something he’ll make sure he gets it 😼

-

HINATA

now, you may think hinata would be nothing but pure chaos with his kids 

but

he is actually very responsible 

it’s hardly a surprise though because he grew up with a younger sister whom he took care of a lot 

from the second your triplet boys are born hinata is on it 

at first when you found out you were having triplets your mind went blank

“so like, 3 little shoyou’s running around my legs? 😀”

“ma’am are you okay?”

“i’m finE :)))”

surprisingly  two of your sons took more after you

but the youngest one 

phew 

he doesn't have an off switch 

he’s just like his father 

but that’s what makes him so loveable too

hinata is a doting dad 

he also encourages his kids to go out and make as many friends

he explains all the opportunities he had growing up and how far these opportunities took him to reach is goal

and this is all because he was open to meeting new people and being friendly with them

he makes sure his kids grow up with lots of aunts and uncles surrounding them

he wants his sons to grow up in a close environment 

your kids have so many aunts and uncles because hinata makes a new friend everywhere he goes ufshfi

your oldest son takes a liking to kenma the most 

your second oldest takes a shine to uncle oikawa

and the youngest?

uncle kaegyama ofc 😈

lmao when kageyama holds one of your sons for the first time he holds it by the leg with a straight face 

nobody thought they’d ever see hinata having to show kageyama how to hold a baby properly 

kageyama is lowkey excited he’s the fav but he’s so awkward fjishsgjh

bring your sons to his games 

he will absolutely smile and wave at his kids whenever he scores

and will pull them out excitedly into the arena when they win 

he has you all plastered on his social media 

he thinks everyone should know that you guys are the light of his life

he already had a fulfilled life before his sons but you gave him a whole new concept of love and excitement when they were born

you guys will totally take a vacation to brazil at some point 

hinata wants your family to meet all his friends over in brazil too 

hinata is mr worldwide 😎

with hinata as a dad, your kids will grow up in a very nurturing home

he wants the best for your kids and will teach them from an early age that any goal is possible 

and he’ll support them in every single way he can

-

BOKUTO

hinata as a dad isn’t chaos 

bokuto as a dad certainly is

he’s basically a child himself 

you guys have 2 kids

a 5 year old son and a 6 year old daughter

bokuto will try and BEFRIEND your kids

“kou baby, they're your kids not your friends”

“uh says who?”

“biology??? their dna?? the birth certificate??”

he literally lets his kids do whatever they want forcing you to be the bad cop (im so sorry)

your kids want ice cream for dinner?

consider it done

they want to adopt a snake?

bokuto has excitedly taken them to the pet store to pick out one each

you’re always the one who has to say no because if you didn’t these kids would be off the r a i l s

the first time your kids cries he cries

the first time your kids talk he cries

the first time they walk he cries

he’s full of emotion and the love he holds for your kids is often expressed through tears of happiness

when you leave bokuto and the kids alone 

things will go smoothly

until one of them starts crying and bokuto can’t stop them

then the other one starts crying and he is clueless on what to do 

he doesn’t want to call you because he doesn’t want to look pathetic 

so he calls the next best option 

uncle akaashi 😼

akaashi is like a walking parent website hfdjbgu

he literally instructs bokuto on what to do through the phone 

and if they still won't calm down akaashi will just sigh and agree to come over

you come home to the sight of akaashi reading a story book to your two kids who are staring up at him in awe from the floor

along with your husband 

“am i interrupting?”

bokuto will break out into smiles and practically pounce on you when you come home

“everything was under control wasn’t it? right akaashi?” :D”

akaashi will just sigh and give a small smile

“yes bokuto-san, everything was under control”

you give akaashi a small smile of apology and he’ll often join you for dinner

yeah your kids spend a lot of time with uncle akaashi but you know who’s adamant on being the favourite uncle?

uncle kuroo ofc 😎

he will spoil tf out of your kids 

we love rich, capitalist uncle kuroo

and he’ll tell them things about bokuto to irritate him

“kids, your dads a criminal he doesn't pay his taxes”

“taxes?”

“money everyone has to pay the government - basically it’s illegal and i think you should call the police on your dad 😈”

you actually have to stop your kids from calling the police on their dad fbhjdsfgu

again, another dad who wants nothing more than for his kids to come to his games

“HEY HEY HEY THAT”S MY FAMILY!!!”

no boundaries with pda

will pick you all up and shower you all with affection when they win

would love if your kids took up volleyball

would tell them it’s the best sport to play 

and they actually listen to him hduigefuiew

your son becomes a middle blocker 

and your daughter becomes an ace 

bokuto could die from happiness 

he will absolutely teach your kids and play and bring them to msby practices so they can watch up close and play along too

if bokuto is the father of your kids 

good luck but have fun with it

because while yes, he is still your big baby that needs taking care of from time to time

he is also an extremely loving father who would gladly give his kids the world and all the stars
