#even if you don't feel that way now they're gonna be worthy someday if you keep trying

[yuseirra]

I love how you can have the readers feel an emotion or feeling in your comics. When I try to make something meaningful I kinda ruin it with my drawings Xd

Good morning/afternoon/night to wherever you’re at, hello!// I nearly said dear anon due to your icon//

I’m really happy to feel my drawings could evoke emotion in you!! That’s really one of my goals regarding drawing (to be able to incorporate feelings in them) and it makes me feel I’m on the right direction! ;v;// I’m also glad because it makes me feel that you take time reading through my works, enough to make you feel something from them too.. for that I’m super duper grateful!!// This may sound a bit creepy (I hope not?;;) but I end up remembering/noticing ppl who like my works a lot! Although all support is meaningful and precious and you don’t have to like all my works to get me motivated, when this happens it really does encourage me to keep working my way through.. and I’ve noticed you’ve been liking a lot of my drawings lately!! So when I saw your ask I couldn’t help but feel ‘hey, it’s this person!!// yes thanks for talking to me I was looking forward to it’..// hope it doesn’t feel so pressuring?

Awawa digressed a bit; I really love the first line of your ask right here but the second bit makes me pretty sad;; I think I get the gist of it (since I’m not entirely confident about my works either), but I really would like to tell you to not say that about your drawings.. there is no need to compare my drawings with yours!! Seriously!!;// I spent a long time getting to where I am and I’m p sure you’d be able to get better than me if you spent as long as I did??! Also, to say that your drawings ruin something feels terrible to hear..;; That’s a hurtful way to describe about something. Let’s face it, they are probably not ruining anything to begin with either!! If you are not so satisfied with your drawings at the moment, just think that you’re still in progress to work your way up there and your current works are like stepping stones, or ladders that will help you reach those goals. When I first started drawing I tried really hard to force me thinking that way and this way of thinking helped me quite a bit.. Like I couldn’t even draw a person. I’m not kidding, I only drew animals when I was little and I HAD.NO.GROUND.TO START FROM when I wished to draw ppl It were dark days

you’re still on your way building your own unique castle. And I’m still working with mine too ‘ㅁ’/ A complete and perfect castle doesn’t pop out of nowhere, and you have to work hard.. but if you think about it the other way around, every brick(effort) counts. Even broken ones that you feel you won’t use will still help you learn because that’s what you call trial and error!

Eheheh;// when somebody tells me their works don’t feel as good compared to mine I just don’t know what to say >//

But I keep drawing because it’s really fun and enjoyable. To add, if there’s something I’ve learned after all these years of drawing (and I still don’t consider myself a good artist never did lol) having fun is.. really all that matters (for me at least). To have fun and feel absorbed and enjoy what you’re doing!// I mean if you pursue art as a career you’d have to force yourself to draw to meet ends and match requirements and stuff and it wouldn’t be happy all the time but still, if you don’t like art and enjoy the process in general what’s the point// Also putting myself down, didn’t really help me get better. Ya need to trust and believe in yourself. If you don’t love your art (or at least some elements of it) you’ll have a really hard time trying to draw more. You say your art seemingly “ruins something meaningful” but if it has meanings for you, I say it has meaning.. other people’s judgement and publicity are important but what I feel the most important is the way you, the creator, feels about your own work. As for me.. I tend to draw things that I feel pretty passionate about people can’t force me to draw things I don’t feel like drawing at all ‘v’)9 So how may the drawings be crude, they’re still genuine to me. And if some people feel the feels seep through it makes me extremely happy..// because it would mean that what I’ve put in there’s been able to get their way through to others too.

This got long, but never stop trying if you really do like drawing. If you’re not so passionate about it it’s okay to stop and give up I guess, but if there’s something you feel very strongly about and love.. it’d be sad to just let it go like that. In addition, please don’t compare your things to other peoples in a condescending way!! You can always pick up something nice or get motivated from seeing ppl better than you but just feeling sad about how your works aren’t as good will only make you feel miserable. I’m saying this from my own experience.. and to be honest I’ve been trying a lot myself as well over spans of years to create something meaningful/fun on my own end ^^; and I don’t improve that fast either ahah I really have a lot to say on this matter; other people try too, and they try hard.. the only thing you could speak on behalf for is about your own efforts and tries, and you can’t assume how much/how hard other people worked on things. What I mean is, don’t put yourself down!! Others are others and you have your own life and pace. If you really want to get better at drawing, or anything else, just keep working at it, and you will get significantly better. Drawing is honestly a field that could reveal your improvements/efforts in the most visual way ever?? and that’s why I love it so much (although the amount of effort and improvement doesn’t always add up as a direct proportion) so relax and have fun, love your things and draw away!// :) You will get there. I also draw in hopes of getting there and I have all my life to keep drawing. It’s never too late!‘v’)9

See you around! >//

BUT I DO HAVE A LOT TO TALK ABOUT THIS ISSUE I just keep quiet all the time ^^;// hope you have a lovely day!

“Hey, Idiot... I Love You.”

Bakugou Katsuki x Reader

Summary: We all know that Bakugou Katsuki is an aggressive and loud boy but what happens if this said angry pomeranian found someone who can tame him? Someone who can take his shit and can stand up, love and take care of him till the end of time.

⚠︎ Warnings ⚠︎: swearing, just a tiny but of angst, playful banters (lemme know if there's more)

So it all started when you two were in junior high. You were seated right in front of him.

You're a smart person and strong too. Can control your quirk amazingly. Know and can calculate tactics fast. You were part of the top students, basically straight A's in all subjects.

The problem is you're ✨socially constipated✨. Shy, quiet, basically an introvert of some sort. (lol calling myself out)

You were that person who no one messes with cause your silence can be intimidating. Like, you having the ✨resting bitch face✨.

Everyone is scared of you cause you radiate the "a-person-doesn't-plot-murder-outloud" vibe. You do actually lmfao but of course that's only for the jerks who messes with you and some innocent people.

That's why you don't have "friends". They're afraid to approach you.

Bakugo somehow took an interest in you but of course, he pushed it away 🙄.

With your vibe goin on like that, he always thought that you were gonna pick a fight or somethin'. During PE time, this boii really challenged you to mf fight. Like literally on the faces of your classmates.

You were like: 😐🤨 "huh? Me?" and you just shrugged it off and accepted it. (like it was a birthday invitation with you just wanting to eat the food lmfao.)

So yeah, your fight lasted an hour. He was tired but you didn't even looked like you're sweating. It could've been longer though if your teacher didn't called the head to stop it and cause of that... You both got detention.

Basically after that, he asked you if you wanna stick with him since you literally prooved that your worthy of his respect and he will beat yo ass someday. And you said okayy.

After that encounter, you two were inseparable. Like, attached to the hips baby. You two were like partners in crime jahdhshsh (friendship goals).

Bakugou really is a great person if you could get pass those barriers of his. He's a softy BUT he doesn't wanna show it, cause he thinks he'll look 💥weak💥.

"Oi, dumbass! Let's go get dinner. We've been studying for 3 hours now. What do you want?"

"I really would love spicy ramen and sushi."

"Hmm... Alright. Grab your things. I'm gonna walk you home too since your ass can't even handle being alone. Tch, wussy." he said while reaching out his hand for you to take and YOU take it WITHOUT hesitation💅

He looked the other way cause you might see the small smile that he's hiding and the light blush that's creeping up his face.

He was basically a whole different person when it came to you.

There was this one time when you saw him picking on Midoriya (again) and you called out his name. His face like turned pale and literally just froze on the spot.

You usually call him Katsuki or Suki. So it's a whole different ass story if you call him Bakugou or Bakugou Katsuki.

"And what are you going to do about it, shitty nerd? Huh? You're useless, can't even do anyth—"

"BAKUGOU!!! WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT BULLYING MIDORIYA?! STOP IT RIGHT NOW, FUCKING ASS GREMLIN."

*freeze* he's basically panicking cause Bakugou? You never call him Bakugou. Usually it'll be Katsuki or Suki and just— Katsuki.exe has stopped working.

Never again will he ever make you mad or upset because he will suffer your ✨wrath✨. Like you'll ignore him and stuff like that until he apologises to Midoriya. (silent treatment)

But of course he won't stop treating Midoriya like that, unless you're near them.

He tolerates it. And that's freaking love, man. When he tolerates someone because they're your friends is *chef's kiss*. He trusts you alot. (he's in denial that he has feelings for you but he doesn't know)

"Hey, Izuku! Oohhh~you've got something new in your notebook? Can I see? Pleeeessseee???"

Bakugou: *incoherent angry bakugou noises* "tch, what a nerd." *growls lowly* *eye twitching* *pouts angrily*

He's doing ANYTHING that he can think of just for you to pay attention to him instead of the 'damn nerd'.

"Thanks, Izuku! I'll see you tomorrow, byee~" *grabs Bakugou's hand and squeezes it*

Bakugou: *quiet, happy bakugou noises*

/////

Then you both decided that you both will go to UA and man was proud that you got in. He be a cocky bish.

Like you called him and started shouting on the phone that you were nervous and that what if you didn't get in then you found a letter in the mail and just jahdhshsh.

He thought it was cute. Especially the part that he was the one who you FIRST go to and tell him you got in. He thinks it's special (and it is! Please give him a hug uwu)

His heart flutters when he hears your voice, your laugh, especially when you called him to face time and he saw your smile.

It's like 💘. The arrow went straight through his heart. That's the time that he thought "Well, damn. I am inlove with them."

He PLANS a way of confessing to you. He wanted it to be "simple but romantic".

It was a couple of days before school.

STARGAZING IN HIS BACKYARD WITH A FORT THAT HE BUILT 😍

It was simple yet romantic, he really tried and it was amazing!

🤬Lord Explotion Murder💥: Hey, come out dumbass.

✨Poppie✨: nani?!

🤬Lord Explotion Murder💥: I'm outside, idiot. Come out, and no need to change. You can come in your pj's.

✨Poppie✨: aight, if u say so.

"so what's up?" you asked but he just grabbed your hand and continues to walk.

When you get there, you were in awe.

"D—Did you...do this?" "Well, yeah. Who else would it be, dumbass?" *flicks your forehead*

>After eating chinese take out and pizza<

"Hey, listen..I know you ain't a fan of the lovey-dovey shit so Imma say this straight up. N/N, we've been friends since Junior years and I just—I like you..alot."

"I..like you too." you whispered staring at him, caressing your thumb on his cheek.

"Tch, we're goin on a date tomorrow. Wear something simple, alright?" you just hummed, drifting off to sleep.

"Yeah, I really do like you... Poppie." he whispered, patting your head while you snuggle further his chest.

The first day of school lmfao, you be sittin on his table and just casually talkin to each other then Iida came in xD

"L/N, it's the first day of school and you're already gonna damage a school property..." he said while chopping the air.

You were like "huh? And what's it to you, sonic?" Katsuki was in awe jahdhshsh straight up heart eyes.

then do u guys remmember what Bakugou said at that time? Yeah he said that too.

After that he pulled you to his lap and just

"There, they're seated on a rightful place already. So just scram, four eyes."

"Make your self comfortable, Poppie." "Is this good?"

Sweet BUT aggressive lmfao

During classes, you still sit in front of him. Since now you two are dating, he'll just draw something on your back (argh, cute >:D)

"What did I draw?" he whispered.

"Hm... Feels like an explosion." you whispered back and he just pats your back to say you're right.

there are times that you two would learn how to do origami just so you guys could surprise each other before each class starts.

You were talkin with Mina at the back of the class along with the other girls and some of the boys.

"Hey, isn't Y/N in a relationship with Bakugou?" Kaminari asked.

"uhh... Yeah? Why?" you asked.

"It's just tha—" Kaminari didn't even get to finish his sentence as the bell rung.

You guys immediately went to your corresponding seats. You were suprised to see a grenade origami by your desk and it just makes you smile knowing who's it from.

As class was starting, you yourself were doing one too while your listening to the topic.

Soon, next period was over and a break was provided.

Katsuki went to the bathroom...

You put the bear origami, a note and a granola bar for his snack. (awww)

When Katsuki came back, he couldn't help but smile a little for the small gift. He's so lucky to have you.

You guys also learned the morse code so that you could talk shit to anyone without them knowing lmfao XD

He does those cute things because you're different. You're special to him.

When he's angry he'll go straight to you because you're the only one who can calm him down.

Remember the time he was chained during the awarding ceremony at the Sports Festival? Yeah... That's when he discovered it.

"Hey, baby... You okay? That was so uncalled for, they didn't have to put you like that." you told him while approaching to give him a hug.

"Annoying damn extras..." continues to mumble while you're hugging him.

"Hey atleast you're number one. That fight was amazing. YOU are amazing." you said as he nuzzled his face on your neck.

"...You looked like an angry chihuahua. PFFT—" "YOU LITTLE SHI—COMEBACK HERE!"

As he was chasing you down the hallway, he can't help himself but laugh cause he knows when he's down, you'll find a way to make him laugh or smile.

Your THAT SPECIAL to get passed being exploded by him.

/////

The time when he got kidnapped, when all of you were sent home. Katsuki can't help but call you.

You ran as fast as you could while tears are falling from your eyes violently.

When you got there you immediately gave him a hug. The tightest hug that you could ever do.

Ring ring

"Hello?"

"P-Poppie?" "Katsuki? Hey, you okay what's wrong?!" "Can you...come here? Please?"

*grabs hoodie, almost jumped from 2nd to 1st floor lmfao* *puts on shoes so fast, you didn't even noticed that your socks were mis-matched* *sprints immediately*

When you get there, boii! HE WAS WAITING OUTSIDE!

"Katsuki!" you jumped on him didn't even care if you fall down or not. Your top priority right now was him.

He dragged you inside to his room and when he closed the door... MENTAL BREAKDOWN. He's sobbing! Give the baby a hug, please!

You just comfort him, whispering to him reassurances and sweet things, kissing his whole face, holding him so close and tight 😔✨.

That night, you two became even closer. You two really be saying "Soulmates? Yeah, we are."

You always have to be touching each other.

Hand holding, arm on shoulder, thigh to thigh, hand on thigh/waist/lower back basically everywhere! Y'all literally are inseparable now.

During his fight with Deku? Yeah, you know too. All might trusts you. (jahdhshsh dadmight😭✋)

Secrets? Nah... You both know ✨everything✨

You patch him up while talkin and cuddle after. You are his comfort. (I need a freakin boyfriend xD)

Internship? Yeah, you both actually didn't know that you both picked the same sooo~ 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️👫✨

You tease each other lololol

"Nice hair, boom boy. Pfft—" "Shut up, dumbass!"

"Damn, my baby gots some nice ass."

Bakugou: *blushes red* tch *light bulb!* *smirks* Mhmm, you would die to see it though, right Poppie?

You're now blushing hard HAHAHA

///// (school festival)

You help Mina with the choreo!

When you saw Katsuki play the drums... 🤤😳

While everyone's on break, you'll go to him and he'll just pull you to his lap and chill.

You actually know how to play the drums but basic only. He was shooketh lol.

That's where he discovers that you also play alot of instruments but it was honestly just a hobby to you.

Proud, cocky boyfriend.

You meet Eri! And she loves you so much! She honestly looks up to you now jahdhshsh. Que Bakugou blushing because he's imagining what if Eri was both of your child? 😍😳

Yeah... He's really fallen hard, very hard for you.

/////

You were in the kitchen dorm cooking lunch for everyone, you were also assigned to babysit Eri for a while as Aizawa-Sensei needed to do some things. Katsuki leaned by the kitchen counter, admiring you.

"You know... You should take a picture, it'll last longer." You snapped him out of his thoughts, he didn't get to see the small smirk that came to your face.

"Eh... Why look at a photo when I already have the real one right in front of me?" he bit back. Slick motherfuc—

"Well why are you still standin there? C'mere." as you said that, he immediately went to hold you. BACKHUGS!

"Hey Idiot... I love you."

"Mhm, I love you too. So damn much." you said nuzzling further into his arms while you both cook.

"I'm so going to damn marry you!" he thought and promised himself.

BONUS:

"BRAT, COME BACK HERE!" "NO!"

"Kenji, sweetie, listen to your father." You said as you were holding Akari in your arms, lulling her to sleep.

"...fine" he grumbled. Katsuki released a relieved sigh. He went and dressed him up.

"Like father, like son." you said rolling your eyes but smiling as you love your family.

"I heard that!" Katsuki said as he emerges in the living room. You already put Akari in her room.

"Finally! Alone time with you. Those brats literally took you away from me."

"Those brats are your children. And besides, you were the one who wanted children as soon as possible."

"Oh shut up!" he said while kissing you.

Everything was going alright. It started to get heated though.

"Mhm...all mine." he growled. "All yours." you whisperd.

Until you hear crying...

"Argh, goddammit!" he yelled as you giggled.

"Well, tomorrow we're gonna have our day to ourselves because earlier Mitsuki called and said she wants to spend some time with the kids."

That put a smirk on Katsuki's face.

"Now if you keep complainin', I am not gonna give you what you want. Got that, boom boy?"

"Yeah, yeah... I'll go tuck Akari back to sleep. That damn brat honestly had to have the energy to cry today among all days. Tch!"he grumbled as he stood up.

*slaps ass* "Go get'em, Dynamight." you gave him playful smirk and winked at him.

He just shooks his head smiling, walking to his daughter's room.

"God, I love that son of a bitch."

Message: I got carried away! Whoopsie, hehe. Anyways, hope you guys like it. A little gift before a new year starts. I hope everyone is having a great day, afternoon, night! Also, you guys really loved the previous Bakugou story that I made so I hope y'all love this one. Merry Christmas and A happy New year! XOXO

this may be weird, but i really want to get a soap tattoo, do you have any good quotes for a tattoo? (Bonus points if its jodie, he is my boyyyyy)

AHHH I LOVE THAT. This ask for real made my night. What a fun idea. I am honoured that you asked me for ideas for this. I have to give the disclaimer that I have no tattoos and at this point in my life I have little to no interest in getting one. So while I do consider myself an authority on all things Soap I'm not an expert on what makes for a good tat. I simply have Opinions™. I guess it also depends on whether you're going for something funny or touching. Okay, I have: -"People aren't needed because of what they do for you. They're needed because of the way they make you feel." A heart-felt all-time fave.

-If you are a homosexual, "I don't have to practice, I'm very good at it." One of Jodie's very best one-liners. Or just "I don't have to practice" maybe with a rainbow. I've wanted to make a sticker or button like that for a while now.

-Barney Gerber has sooo many great lines in his last two episodes. And they’re like Jodie-adjacent. “You’ve got you” and “Someday[...] you’re gonna hear somebody laughing, and you’ll turn, around and it’ll be you” would be nice to have close to you when you’re feeling down.

And if you're feelin’ adventurous: -"SOAP" knuckle tats (bonus points if it’s in Cooper Black font) -"1977-1981″ and people will be like "aww who died?" and you'll be like "the greatest sitcom of all time :,( "

All jokes and ideas aside tho, I feel you should also do a rewatch and make a list of the quotes or references are the most tattoo-worthy to you! Everyone has their own preferences and different things are meaningful to different people. The quotes that make me laugh or touch my heart may not be as significant to you. (I mean, even when I'm making gifs I'm biased towards the scenes/characters/jokes that are most appealing to me).

Whatever you choose to get I would LOVE to see a picture of the tattoo when it’s done! Also, I’m now curious to know everybody's Soapy tat ideas 👀

[dreamersscape]

This child is a FORCE to be reckoned with, not because he’s particularly skilled at the technical aspects of most shinobi arts, but because of how expansively and unreservedly he loves.  That’s why I adore the Kurama/tailed beasts arc so much - starting with Naruto smiling and telling him “Someday I’m gonna come for all that hate inside of you, too”

Be prepared to be compromised by this even further, is all I'm gonna say. ;)

(Or, at least I was!)

I have Major Feelings about them.  I don’t write about them as much as I do other things, but it’s only because I don’t know what to say besides a thousand heart emojis.  I don’t have the right words.  It’s just a love explosion.

YES! This!!!!!!!! They mean so much to me, and obviously it's very much to do with every moment you described, all of those parts demolished me, and it's also about the times Kakashi sees Minato in Naruto(😭😭😭), and how he was guarding Naruto too when Kushina was pregnant, and everything! But I also don't know how to pinpoint or encapsulate why they make my heart so full reflexively, like I can with Kakashi & Sasuke, for example.

They just... can help each other heal. Or could've, since they've both well on their way now. Nothing makes me ache more than the thought of them alleviating each other's loneliness if they had each other when Naruto was little. Kakashi being there so Naruto could know at least one person cared about him, and Naruto showing Kakashi that he's worthy of being loved still after everything that's happened to him. And I really want Kakashi to give Sasuke a home too, and I love the bond Iruka and Naruto forge, and I want all of that to still be present. But, just, that genuine, raw love and affection comes so naturally to Naruto and he would direct that at Kakashi without a second thought, and Naruto getting to hear about his parents from Kakashi... it gets to me!

I don't want any of the relationships either of them have built in the show to be replaced or diminished, and they already care about each other as sensei and student, and that's all wonderful! I don't know, maybe it's a good thing their relationship is only touched on every once in a while? Maybe I wouldn't survive if they had given Naruto & Kakashi the 426 Yamato & Kakashi treatment at some point. 😂

[Sakura and Kakashi are] really getting Something Else?????...I Can’t Wait

Well, I don't want to build it up like the show makes A Big Deal out of it, but I still think what I'm referring to is really, really lovely regardless. <3

So for me, I think the hurdle Yamato has to clear isn’t necessarily changing what Kakashi calls him, but rather allowing himself to be called that without feeling like he’s breaking the rules/doing something wrong/letting himself have something he doesn’t deserve.

Basically, I think Yamato wants Kakashi to keep calling him Tenzo - kind of like when you have a nickname that only certain friends or family use - but he needs to reach a place where he’s comfortable with that, where he doesn’t feel the need to protest, where he no longer feels like he’s supposed to be a nameless, self-less shell under a mask.

I totally agree with this! And I should have clarified that in my imaginings any ambivalence Yamato might feel about Kakashi still calling him "Tenzo" would not be him actually wanting Kakashi to stop calling him by that name, and I do think he'd like it to continue being a sort of nickname. I'm not sure how exactly to articulate it, but... I just have this vague scenario bouncing around in my head about a possible conversation/hashing out of things Kakashi and Yamato have been privately struggling with after a short while has past post-war. I think when (positive thinking :)) they're reunited, that moment of relief and joy seeing the other is still alive will be very cathartic and good for them, but once the process of recovery and re-structuring gets under way for the five great nations and they possibly have their own duties to fill, Yamato will have a lot of tasks that he can help out with but will likely feel emotionally adrift and uncertain about his long-term future, and Kakashi I feel would try to give Yamato some room to breathe and process everything. I'm not saying I see him visibly/physically avoiding Yamato, things would be fairly normal between them and new-and-improved-in-expressing-his-love!Kakashi would absolutely do everything he could to "be there" and be supportive of Yamato as well as the rest of his team. But I think he might have doubts that Yamato would want/choose him as a source of help, given the circumstances of Yamato's capture and torture? I don't feel like I'm explaining this well, but it would be like Kakashi wanting to be very careful not to "force" his company on Yamato in the immediate fallout of him reconciling what he went through? Anyway, outwardly their dynamic wouldn't be that different, but I think Yamato might sense what he thinks is reticence from Kakashi and it reinforcing his anxiety that he could never truly have a place with Team 7. So at some point Kakashi tries to check in with Yamato or ask him what's bothering him and he uses "Tenzo" in doing so, and I'm not sure if this makes any sense why my mind is making this connection, but this is where I came up with the idea of Yamato possibly snapping at Kakashi again to stop calling him that. And it wouldn't be about the name itself, it'd be Yamato trying to find a way to express that he doesn't want Kakashi to keep seeing him as the "Tenzo" he's always known? That he doesn't want their friendship to be limited to what was possible in the ANBU when he was Tenzo? He likes being "Tenzo" to Kakashi and it's only ever been indicative of Kakashi being personable towards him and even emphasizing that he's one of the people Kakashi's closest with, especially as they've been reconnecting during his time with Team 7. He doesn't need to be "Yamato" to Kakashi, but he might be unconsciously seeking reassurance Kakashi still wants "Yamato" around, that, as you pointed out in our long-ago Kakashi & Yamato discussion I always wanted to continue adding on to, Kakashi doesn't just see him as his subordinate "Tenzo" that he has to "take care of". And of course Kakashi doesn't need to change how he sees Yamato; we know he's always wanted Yamato to see for himself he's a person who has the right to want more for himself than what the Foundation and ANBU wanted to use him for. But I think Yamato needs to have that reiterated again, in a time where he's not "needed" any longer for his usefulness, instead he's needed and wanted as a friend. And I'm not sure he would know how to ask or express that, so hence rejecting the use of "Tenzo" in a moment of frustration/upset (with himself more than Kakashi, probably).

That was a lot of meandering blather that may or may not have been comprehensible and/or realistic, but hopefully it didn't sound too silly. And I also have to admit I didn't even consider that Yamato's parents could still be discovered--I don't know why--but you're completely right that it would be a whole 'nother kettle of fish for him and us to learn what his original name was. And Kakashi absolutely would assist and support Yamato in whatever he wanted to do with that information/potential search!

in-progress (and incoherent) naruto thoughts: waterfall of tears no jutsu edition

kakashi spending an entire day and expending a ridiculous amount of effort and chakra just so his kids can HAVE FUN.  him secretly playing with his kiddos and all their little twelve year-old friends just so they can enjoy themselves, with them none the wiser that he’s doing any of it - him spending the day entertaining children and letting kids be kids Just Because.  just because he wants to.  just because it makes him happy to make them happy.

obito ripping multiple universes open searching for the last surviving member of the family he destroyed, the last surviving member of his own family.

sakura and sasuke seeing each other through that portal.  sakura calling for him, him running to her, the portal shrinking, him catching her before she falls down.

sasuke looking up to see kakashi leaping in front of him to take a projectile meant for him, to die shielding him, just like kakashi promised him he would, all those years ago [i’ll protect you with my life]

i was so stubborn.  and so often…ill at ease.  but you always came to my rescue.

obito sparing kakashi while sacrificing himself.  you stay here a little while longer.  it’s too soon for you to die.  don’t be so quick to follow us.

who do you want to save this time?  kakashi.

I REALLY LOVE YOU GUYS
