#kakashi in a state of permahigh while dealing with three 12 yos day in and out is the least of anyones concerns

I know deep in my heart Kakashi was perpetually high when he was training team seven. Wake and bake, get to training an hour late, then run them through a modified ANBU training or half remembered exercises that Minato put together because that's all he knew at that point. No one ever taught him how to properly deal with genin, and he's a genius, so trying to figure out how three average shinobi are supposed to be taught was probably a nightmare for him considering he was a full fledged jonin at their age. Stare at his dead sensei’s son while trying not to cry, watch a mini version of himself duke it out with his emotions and lose, just like he did before all of his team was picked off one by one, ect. And Sakura, who is his daughter (spiritually), despite how nauseating her crush on Sasuke is, quickly blowing past the other two to secure her spot as his favorite. Fuck with them for a few hours, go home, take a massive rip from his bong, and spend the next few hours asking god what he did to deserve this life. Maybe take his ninken for a walk or pester on-duty jonin and ANBU. Rinse and repeat every single day.
