Oh yeah, right next to the Iruka dolphin, I drew what I thought Kakashi's mom could look like but then I didn't like how I couldn't recreate her hair and I kept debating about her existence until I drew the dolphin. So...maybe?

[cloudabserk]

[bonanza-tact]

Kkir fankid bc i love them sm

Hatake Kohari, born during the interlude

[stmnn]

fav Naruto ship?

well...

Kakairu were originally favorites..I don't draw them much, but I adore them with all my heart. If we talk about others, for example Obito, then this is definitely Obirin, then Obikaka and/or Tobidei will go a little lower. I love Kakayama too. Hashimada. Kakuhida. Kakagui. Ohh.. There's so many good ships... I can't choose..

I love all of them, but i do have favourites like Kakairu, Obirin and Kakuhida

Anbu Kakairu 📸

which one should I draw next time?

Today i finished watching Naruto! And i found this gem in the ending credits: one pure team Minato hug! 💜🧡🩶

I don't care for people telling Iruka Kakashi is a bad romance option for him I want the opposite. I want people going up to Kakashi and beggin him not to date Iruka because:

No respect for authority

no.1 most likely to commit treason

doesn't scold kids for graffitti he scolds them for the graffitti looking bad

His Fucking Temper

Will argue with you just for the sake of arguing

Publically and openly disses the village heads

He's a fucking delinquent Kakashi you CANNOT have that on your already tenuous reputation

Remember when he threw himself over the mission table to throttle you for an awful report?

There's a barely withheld violence in him that you only see in psychological horrors from Stone

And Kakashi's only response to all of this is "yes but have you considered: I Can Fix Him" [re: make his temper calm down. The rest of that list makes him swoon]

Whenever there was a storm, Iruka remembers his parents hiding him away. The barrier seals that cover his windows dull the thunder into a low rumble, like how he remembers the sea, and all he can see through the glass is an inky darkness. Those seals are the first ones they teach him, and they tell him to always have them on hand.

When he’s a little older, he asks why he can’t watch the storm like his friends. They tell him that around when he was born, there was a terrible storm that lasted for weeks. In desperation, his grandfather prayed to the storm gods, offering up his newly born grandson as a sacrifice if they would make them stop. And the storms stopped. Unwilling to let such a fate befall their child, his parents took him and fled to Konoha.

Iruka isn’t sure he believes in storm gods, but he loves his parents. Then the kyuubi comes, and suddenly gods don’t seem so fake anymore. So he covers his room at the orphanage and then his apartment with wards, and bites back the defensiveness when Mizuki makes fun of him. It isn’t the thunder and lightning he’s afraid of, it’s what they could bring.

When storms are coming, he can feel his skin crawl, like someone is watching him. Iruka strengthens the wards on his apartment and doesn’t take missions, instead hiding away in the Hokage Tower, where nobody can touch him. Some storms make it feel like someone if pounding at his barriers. On those nights he tucks himself into the corner of his apartment, as far from his windows as he can, and huddles under a blanket, wishing he weren’t so alone.

But Iruka cannot outrun and avoid storms forever. There’s a stillness in the air when he’s assigned a mission with Hatake Kakashi that he cannot refuse. Overhead the clouds are full and heavy with rain, and there’s a tinge of ozone that sets Iruka’s nerves on edge. Thunder rumbles in the distant sky when they find the enemy’s trail, and the clouds burst upon first clash.

It takes every bit of Iruka’s skill to keep from being overwhelmed. The enemy is too strong, and his heart too soft. All the warnings his parents repeated tug at him, and he’s too distracted.

Lightning strikes the tree that Iruka’s opponent is crouched in, close enough he can feel the heat. The air is saturated with enough chakra that Iruka feels drunk off it, even as it makes his hair stand on end. Blinking to clear the searing light from his eyes, Iruka chokes on a gasp.

Before him stands Kakashi, his arm buried in the chest of the now very crispy enemy ninja, sparks of electricity arcing almost lazily across his body. With a flick of his wrist Kakashi’s arm is free, and he glares down at the corpse. Something feels wrong, and while Iruka’s common sense screams at him to move, he feels rooted to the spot. Two eyes, one storm cloud grey and the other heat lightning red, lock onto his.

Kakashi’s hand, the one that had just killed a man, cups Iruka’s cheek. Once, while experimenting with seals, Iruka had shocked himself with a raiton based seal. It had hurt, and left his arm numb for two days. The merest brush of Kakashi’s fingers brings the same feelings for half a second before subsiding into a strange tingling sensation.

“I can finally touch you, my Iruka, my bride,” Kakashi’s voice was a low growl, an almost predatory sound that made Iruka jerk back. As soon as he broke contact with Kakashi, it seemed like all of Iruka’s strength left him. Like a puppet with cut strings he collapsed, and was only saved by Kakashi gathering him into his arms.

“Rest, Iruka. I’ll take care of everything else,” Kakashi cooed, and Iruka found himself helpless to resist. His last thought before he sank into unconsciousness was if his parents would be disappointed he didn’t fight harder.

This can now be found, in an expanded version, on Ao3

yeah so 1 week left, right?

Prompt 1 - I wanted to do Meet Cute (not that cute but as a first meeting I hope it qualifies)

Oh God I wanted to do this in time but this semester I am fucking constantly running around clinics and I love it so much but I am always just so tired

It's been a LONG time since I drew ~them~ so watch me fuck up Kakashi's hair less and less with each entry as the magic comes back to my hand lol

@kakairu-rocks thank you so much for the event

[konohagakurekakashi]

"How does a week of teaching at the academy sound?"

........

Like a task best suited for Iruka-sensei.

[tendercrysp]

I'm both sorry and not sorry for throwing a curveball like this at you guys but I FINALLY finished this so I wanted to share

Maybe I should do Iruka in Sly Cooper's outfit as compensation?

[ezombiy]

forgot to post this here 😋

Kakashi is bastard. Why naruto hate?

[emo-nova]

I have come to a realisation why I don't like Boruto:Next Gen. It isn't quite the turn they have decided, but it focuses more on the handling of Naruto and his actions as a father. I truly, and utterly believe, that this is what turned me off from the show, albeit some storylines of the show is iffy to me its fine.

Naruto, in my whole opinion, would try to emulate Iruka Umino. He would try to be there for his son, for his failings and his successes even before and after as Hokage. This kid would become Hokage and immediately go to Iruka and ask how to balance work and private so he can be there for his son, he might go to Kakashi as well but let's be honestly does he have a life outside of his work as a ninja? Anyways.

This is what got me off of the show. I couldn't watch Naruto as a parent of Boruto because I don't think he would be handling it like that. He would take his son out after forcing him to clean the faces for ramen or burgers to get him to speak up about it. He would try to emulate the father-figure Iruka was to him in his early life, and he would be the same with Himawari.

That is my realisation. I know that if Naruto parented differently, there would or could be bigger changes in Boruto Canon. I am fine with cherry picking what I like from it, but Naruto being an absent parent is not what I see for him.

If I have anything wrong, do tell me, I will like to be stand corrected over this :)

[irukasenseii]

TBH I think out of all the ninken, Iruka's favorite would be Guruko because he reminds him of Naruto--
