Fic Author Self Rec! When you get this reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, or some snippets from upcoming WIPS. Let’s spread the self-love! Love ya and thank you for all you do!! 💖

Thank you, sweet anon. 🥰

I don't have any WIPs at the moment, but these are the five fics I am most proud of:

The End of Winter

This is my angsty NH Hanahaki AU. I had another NH Hanahaki AU but it's a cute and fluffy thing, so I decided to go for super extra pain and suffering in this.

Here are some lines I like from it.

"Naruto-kun...Naruto-kun was straightforward," she protested, eager to defend his honor. Even when he wasn't there. Especially when he wasn't there. "Whenever he spoke, it was from his heart. That was how he showed his regard for others."

***

Laughter bubbled forth from Hinata's throat, like fresh water from a stream, gaining force and vigor, rushing down a cliff.

***

Forever.

That was what happened when the sky met the sea and they spun off into infinity. The horizon, forever and a day away.

***

She caught his crinkling eye.

He caught hers.

And she turned away to hide a smile.

***

But that was a different kind of forever, the kind that she used to anticipate with sweaty palms and racing heart. The kind of forever that seemed like the slow blink of an eye and the warmth of a smile.

***

"There's...there's so much I still have to tell you." The dense mass in her lungs expanded and she fought down a wave of nausea once more. "But...you remember what I said to you that day? That day I faced Pain? That I'm doing this for my own self-satisfaction? You saved me so many times, and I wanted to save you too. But I...I can't tell you e-everything yet, b-because..."

Her Byakugan wasn't activated tonight. The world faded into a watery, crystalline blur.

Foolish, crybaby ninja.

"Because...I'm not satisfied. So please forgive me. Again."

She put her sunflowers into a vase and bowed deeply to the person who'd changed her, inside out, upside down.

"A...anyway...please keep waiting for me."

Frogs croaked somewhere off deep into the night, and Hyuuga Hinata was gone.

***

Hinata could never escape his name and presence, could she? Ever.

[...]But then, he always made her feel brave.

[...]That forever that she used to anticipate with sweaty palms and racing heart. Him and her and a bowl of miso ramen, extra large, with a helping of naruto.

He'd thrown away that forever.

For this.

I'm happy with Chapters 9 and 10 too. The last lines:

She touched the sunflower petal in her pocket, smiled, and wrote a name.

For some reason, this isn't my most popular fic. No, that would be

Let's Switch Up

and/or

Telephone Game

These are the most popular and most reviewed NH I've written.

Oh God, it's been two years and the mood whiplash is so severe. I can't believe that I am the same person who wrote both The End of Winter...and this.

***

Gaara was trying to be a better sibling now. He was.

And if it meant contacting this...Hinata and asking her to donate a harem for his big sister, then...then he would do it.

It was all part of his journey as the Kazekage.

***

"...Hyuuga's harem is old news. You should get out more and read fan magazines like Awesome Assassins from Across the Five Great Nations."

***

"Yeah!" Naruto cracked his knuckles right back. "Kikurage is UGLY. And so are Menma, Nori, Wakame, Tamanegi, Aonegi, Shiraganegi, Takana, Benishoga, Mitsuba, Shijimi, Kamaboko, Wonton, and Yuzukosho! We all know that the BEST is me, Naruto. No other ramen topping can COMPARE. Hinata would agree!"

"What did you say, brat?" snarled one of the bystanders. "Aonegi is an ikemen. He has amazing blonde hair and eyes as blue as the summer sky. He's an orphan with a tragic backstory, and – "

***

...It wasn't like he was obsessed with her concubines or anything and could recite their names by heart because he'd read that Awesome Assassins article over and over.

He just wanted to see her. And tell her that Naruto was better than Menma, Nori, Wakame, Kikurage, Tamanegi, Aonegi, Shiraganegi, Takana, Benishoga, Mitsuba, Shijimi, Kamoboko, Wonton, and Yuzukosho.

And tell her that if she really wanted, he could do Reverse Harem Jutsu.

***

What was I doing? I can't believe I wrote a long story in which the whole world believed that Hinata was carrying on polyandrous relationships with ramen topping guys who sounded exactly like Naruto.

And this time two years ago, I wrote this:

Teuchi had seen a lot during his decades as Konoha's Number One Ramen Chef.

***

Until now. This was the Number One Most Bizarre Incident he'd ever witnessed in his long, long years as the owner of Ichiraku Ramen.

Did those kids really think he wouldn't notice that something funny was happening, just because he wasn't a ninja?

I wrote...a chapter titled..."Why Don't You Wear Bras?"

When I said those were crack AUs...those were crack AUs. I suppose I was far too influenced by "I Am NOT Going Through Puberty Again!" by EvilFuzzy9, the (extremely funny) time travel NaruHina SasuSaku crack fic.

Besides these, I'm particularly happy with

The Moon Sure Is Beautiful Tonight

Facing the Sun

When I Look At You

Heliotropism

Where the Heart Is

When Your Blood Type Is B

Sunny Days

and some others.

Thanks for the question!

[kyriolex]

I find it quite odd, how people think Himawari will be affected by Eida's Diablos Ex Machina and become Sasuke 2.0 and go on a revenge path to hunt and try to kill Boruto. What the heckie?

(Yes people believe that Himawari being affected by Eida's powers and going psycho killer mode)

Lmao First of all, we're talking about NARUTO and HINATA'S Daughter here. She's a perfect mix of the 2 characters who would NEVER go down a revenge path

We're talking about the Daughter of Uzumaki fucking NARUTO, the same guy who forgave Obito, the man responsible for the many deaths including his own Parents, and even called him "The Coolest Guy"

The Daughter of Hyuga fucking HINATA, who never hated Neji, even calling him her Brother, even when he was in the midst of trying to kill her.

What the hell would make them think Himawari would become anything like Sasuke let alone go down a cycle of hatred? 🤔

Also Himawari's name literally means "SUNFLOWER"!

Imagine a Blood Lusted, Revenge Thirsty character with the name Sunflower 🌻

The characters in the Naruto Franchise have been proven to have names that define the type of characters they are.

"Hinata" for example means "A Sunny Place". It was deliberately given to her to match her character. She tends to pop up when Naruto is in a Dark point of the story and it was also a subtle clue that she and Naruto were the endgame pairing since Naruto represents the Sun

Another example is "Itachi" who's name means "Weasel'. "Weasels" are often a name given to people known for being tricky and deceitful. Not only is Itachi a Genjutsu user but is also a Traitor to his own Clan

Why would a character named "Sunflower" go down a dark Sasuke route?

Even ignoring the fact that Kishimoto himself said that the idea of a girl with a "Sasuke-like personality" sounds terrifying to him. (It's the reason why Sarada takes more of Sakura's traits) it also sounds really OOC to me, for Himawari to suddenly go full Avenger just by going off of Kawaki's words without anything else to back it up, even if she is affected

We've seen how Himawari acts when secrets are being kept. She's not dumb.

In the first episode of Academy Arc she saw right through Kawaki lying to her about being on Mission and attempted to confront him about it

Later on she spied on him and Naruto conversating about the mission

Hima is the type of character who would ask questions first, look into things herself, and then take action

Her automatically deciding that Boruto needs to die doesn't sound like Hima at all.

I mean, even Shikamaru "smartest boy ever" Nara has fallen under Eida's jutsu, so I don't think intelligence or perceptiveness alone would prevent Himawari from resisting it. There's some mystery factor to the resistance, and it's unclear yet if she has it or not.

If Himawari falls under Eida's spell, I agree that she's unlikely to go into revenge mode immediately. But I could see her becoming a tracker-nin to find Boruto and attempt to talk-no-jutsu him the same way Naruto tried to do with his "brother" Sasuke. I don't know if Himawari would automatically believe Boruto's explanation, but she'd at least hear him out.

But knowing Kishimoto, there will be some contrived misunderstanding to push her into Byakugan Berserker mode anyway, solely so he can draw her and Boruto fighting. Then Toneri will show up on the sidelines, make some analogy to Hiashi and Hizashi Hyuuga, and monologue about the nature of fate.

A while a go I made everybody sad remind or making some of you realize that Hinata named not just one but BOTH of her children after Neji. If you haven’t read it yet, I’ll copy paste it here:

But DID she really have to name her children after him? Both of them???! Darling girl, I'm like your husband's boyfriend, I don't get over anything ever And I'm certainly not over the life of the death of your keeper He was born first but at the same time was born for you, he fell in love at the mature age of 4yo, he never even got a chance... And he tried to rebel, he spent 9 years to hate you, and the worst thing he could call you after putting so much work was "too gentle". Thanks to your now husband, he accepted his fate, he became your teacher, your shadow, your shield and then died for you because he knew, he would never have you and if you had just let that sit there If you had let him go Well, who the fuck I'm lying to 🤣 I'd not be over this whole shitshow even if she hadn't named the kids she had with another man after HIM BOTH of them, goddammit 🤣😭 And when @incensuous asked clarifications why I said both of the children are names after Neji, I said: Boruto is Bolt, another name for screw, you know, literally Neji. Neji is the only important Hyuuga character without a solar name, he doesn't need a solar name because his whole theme is doing round motions (his kaiten) searching for sunlight (Hinata is s sunlit place) you know, like a sunflower does.

Original post HERE

And I have you know that even waaaay before Gaiden, I was already naming NejiHina babies as “Himawari” on fanfiction and The Sims. Kishi totally stole from me.

And y'll have the moral obligation to vote "Sunflower" for the best theme of 2016

A/N: This story is post-war, canon-divergent. Angst and trauma are major themes but if you'd stick around, you'd get a whiff of love as well. [SasuHina]

Hinata sat in the back garden with her eyes on the ground. The sun was lifting his head over her horizon but she chose to concentrate at the dew-covered ground under which rare saplings slept in the soil, twinkling like stars under her Byakugan.

After war, even when Naruto was safe, she didn't let go of her training. She might have started out with a purpose, but training came naturally to her now. The idea of purpose did not matter and even though, the purpose was the jewel of her heart, her training transcended beyond thoughts and emotions. With some more time and effort, her Byakagun sharpened to realize that even trees had souls. Is this how her ancestor felt? The ill-fated Kaguya.

But these trees were nothing like the husk of ten-tails. They had no violence. By looking at their nature energy, the bare minuscule that she could muster to visualize, she felt that she belonged. A little less alien on the planet, she found amidst war, which was never originally hers. Her thoughts had turned less chaotic the day she had found out about this truth. It felt like uncovering a forgotten memory...deep down, she always felt that the planet was not her original home. But she easily suppressed such thoughts. What good would come out of them?

She got up, straightened her gardening skirt, and lifted her head to look at the sun--the effect was immediate. Her face bloomed like sunflowers would bloom against the sunshine. In that moment, she felt grateful to be alive--filled with humility, root of her essence.

At the cottage's entrance, she took off her slippers and noiselessly slipped into the kitchen. For Kurenai, it was as difficult as an upper rank mission to fall asleep these days, and it made Hinata worry. With little Mirai on Kurenai's hands, it was already a struggle to set a sleeping schedule to begin with. Having a child as a shinobi was not an easy business, Hinata noted to herself. But being a shinobi does grant mental and physical agility against the challenges of of parenthood (single parenthood in this case).

Hinata took a steaming cup of tea to Kurenai's bedroom and stole a minute to admire the heart-warming scene. Mirai slept peacefully in her mother's arms. Her mother, asleep as herself, cradled Mirai's head to restrain restless movements brought on by unknown dreams that the child was incapable of articulating just yet. Observing this scene in secrecy, something tugged at Hinata's heart and like a child, she too found herself incapable of articulating the feeling that filled her with gratitude. Warmth climbed up her face and she felt her heart burst with joy.

After moving to a secluded cottage, two weeks away from Konoha, Hinata had never felt so free. But more so, she felt that she belonged. Of course, it was not a vacation for any of them. They would not have left behind Konoha if they could help it. But Naruto, who was now the Hokage, had decreed all genjutsu masters to go into hiding. For Kurenai, one of the elite shinobis of the village, the summons were personal. She was advised to take a squad of jonin along but Kurenai being Kurenai, refused such indulgence. Yet since it was Hokage's order, she couldn't shun it altogether and requested Hinata's able company for guardianship.

Shikamaru didn't want to hear the end of it. He would accompany Mirai and her mother to the end of the world. That was his promise. But on Naruto's compliance to Kurenai's suggestion, he had to give in.

Hinata felt a tinge of pride in her sensei's choice but also took the responsibility very seriously. The danger to Kurenai's life was no joke. In the fourth shinobi war, for the first time, all hidden villages and capitals, even the commoners, encountered the chakra-art, and not just any chakra-art, a Tsukuyomi: the most powerful genjutsu in existence. It was potent and addictive, not just for commoners but also for the surviving shinobis. Especially for the surviving shinobis. Those who were dealing with the very grief of surviving against the sea of the dead. After Madara's Tsukuyomi was lifted, a rude awakening had immediately followed.

As people fell off trees like fruits, there were cries across the planet as if millions of toddlers were broken from their sleep. The wailing was gut-wrenching. While the elite shinobis of higher ranks managed to withstand the genjutsu's after-effects, they were barely a minority. The rest of the masses wanted to return to the dream where their dead loved ones waited for them for an embrace.

Different villages took different approaches to solve this dream-hunger. In Hidden Cloud Village, as moon effigies popped up in the corners of the village, the Raikage ordered imprisonment for anyone carrying such contrabands and symbols of delusions. He would literally destroy the moon if he had to, he had confessed to his brother. In the Hidden Mist Village, on the other hand, they would produce confusion tactics to quiten the rebels from propagating their ideology. But when that didn't last, ANBU level ninjas hunted these moon rebels and attacked their underground tunnels with a fog filled with numbing agents, quite literally smoking the rats out. Even the peace-loving Sand, under the benevolent guardianship of Gaara, understood the violence of such moves with sorrow. Grief tugged at Gaara's heart when he had to entomb the rebels to cease the spread of madness, he himself grew up with. In a strange reversed situation, Gaara recognized the familiar madness in the villager's eyes, a madness that had been his friend since childhood. He knew, if left uncontrolled, it will infect everyone. Madara's dream might just posthumously come true.

But the situation plummeted after Konoha's move. In a meeting with the Konoha council, Kakashi found himself staring blankly in the fire. Daimyo's strange suggestion of re-installing a small-scale genjutsu for Konoha. His reasoning came at a striking period of time when Kakashi was about to transfer his power to Naruto, and so neither Kakashi nor Naruto had enough political power to counter Daimyo's suggestion. Daimyo's reasoning had been: "If we give people what they want, it will help them wean off better. Like little babes with mother's milk."

For this purpose, Kurenai was brought to the center stage. Kurenai warned about the consequences of such a plan. A genjutsu erases lines between dualities. Reality and unreality. But given the political pressure, she decided to install a day long genjutsu for Konoha's shinobi and villagers. Those who wanted to sit out, could, and even those who partook in it, should have a safe window to return from their dreams. But just as the clock was about to strike the day over, Kurenai found Damiyo's own bodyguard, mercilessly killing off her fellow genjutsu users who had helped her cast a village-wide genjutsu. The plan had been to kill the genjutsu-casters so that the key is lost with the lock. Reading the mad logic that lead to such a disastrous situation, Kurenai knocked the bodyguard down and immediately released the genjutsu, albeit faster than she had intended. After which, she requested Kakashi to send ANBU to settle the situation in the village. She knew that the waking would bring a terrible uproar because of sudden unwinding of the jutsu.

But now that the genjutsu was released, the rebels wanted her alive. Or anyone like her. The news soon spread like fire to the other villages and as a result, many genjutsu users had to go into hiding. The whole incidence had left a sour taste in Kurenai's mouth, and as much as she hated for Mirai to grow up in a place which was not Konoha, she was relieved to be free of prying eyes.

And Hinata was an angel. She put down the cup of tea on Kurenai's bedside table and found her Sensei's sharp shinobi senses stir to her noiseless movements.

"Good morning...how was your sleep?"

"It was much better", Kurenai smiled in assurance. But Hinata could always read between the lines.

It was time for their morning training, and so, Hinata gave Kurenai some space to freshen up and meet her in the garden. Hinata missed training with Neji. But she knew he had bigger responsibilities-duties, she had once envisioned for herself. But with time, she had realized that she was never cut out for it. The compound full of men did nothing to ease her own self-expectations and self-hatred. Perhaps, underneath it all, she still wanted to prove something to them. With these thoughts, chaos returned to her and she gave a solid palm to the heavily bruised bark that took beating from her every day.

It had been two months since they fled Konoha and found a refuge in a cottage uphill. The weather was cooler at this side and soothed her senses. Since leaving, they had not encountered any danger. Hinata found it jarring. She was afraid that she would fall victim to this long-standing peace which was addictive in its own sense. Like a knife, ironic to her own gentle nature, she sharpened herself every day to prevent a mishap that may result from an addiction to comfort.

Donning her own training gear, Kurenai slowly walked near Hinata's side and admired her taijutsu command. Realizing the presence behind her, Hinata looked back at the shimmering pools of ruby eyes and clenched her fist. A solid blow knocked the woman straight into the fence.

"You are not Kurenai," Hinata awakened her Byakugan.

I'm sorry but, ★ please?

Thank you!!

★ - sad headcanon

I'm guessing you want a sad NH headcanon since we're all in that fandom haha.

Here goes!

After the war, both Naruto and Hinata had constant, recurring nightmares about Neji sacrificing himself for them. It was one of the things that brought them closer, those cold nights in front of Neji's grave, honoring him with sunflowers and talking about days gone by and his grumpy face and his hidden kindness.

One day, Hinata confided in Naruto that sometimes she believed that she should have been the one who died instead. Neji nii-san was a brilliant genius with the purest Hyuuga eyes in generations. And Hinata was...Hinata. She had barely mastered the 64 Palms in the middle of the war, whereas Neji nii-san had done so at the age of thirteen. The Hyuuga clan had recently stopped the division of the Main and Branch, and his life as a free and unfettered bird had been short, too short. It hurt, knowing he'd never grow old with them.

Clearly her survival was a huge mistake, she told Naruto.

That was the only time Naruto was ever visibly mad at her. He told her to never say something like that ever again. He was scowling, looking almost like he was possessed by the Kyuubi, but his eyes were still their usual bright, sky blue, glistening with tears.

It was like that time in the war, when Hinata literally slapped some sense into Naruto, preventing him from giving up all hope.

For a long, long time, Hinata had assumed that she was the one watching Naruto from afar and that he never noticed her back.

The day he got super angry at her was the day she realized that he noticed her quite a bit more than she ever knew.

Put a symbol (or several) and a character/characters in my ask box, and I’ll give you a headcanon.

Himawari

[kalira]

My main focus right now is my NaNoWriMo project (a Madara-centric wing AU, I anticipate it being 50-65k somewhere, most likely - the first book in the trilogy was 62k) but I am also working on some side stories as I go. . .

Like starting to poke at things for @nejihinata‘s NejiHina Week! X3

Here’s a snippet from my story for the Day 6 prompt Moonlit. . .

Hinata brushed through the tall sunflowers, feeling the tickle of their petals, then landed lightly. The barely audible thud of paws was her only warning before the moonlight was blotted out briefly by the silhouette of the wolf soaring over her in an easy leap.

He skidded just a little as he turned back towards Hinata, and she released her broom, taking the few steps to meet him.

His eyes glowed in the light of the moon, as blank white as her own and stark against his dark fur. Then he closed them as he nudged his muzzle along her shoulder, and Hinata threw her arms around him, pressing even closer with a shiver.

“Oh . . . I missed you.” Hinata said softly, burying her fingers in his fur with a gentle stroke.

He shook himself in her embrace, gentle enough not to throw off her arms, and then his own arms were wrapping around Hinata in return, drawing her in close against a warm, bare chest. Hinata shivered again, this time for a different reason, drawing one hand back to let her fingers skim over his skin.

The prompt just left me with the image of a great black wolf with Hyuuga eyes. . . I had to indulge with a fantasy AU. ;)
