I did little grindr profiles for my modern au for funsies
Shikamaru has been using Grindr for a little decade. Kankurou is very new to it and unconvinced and probably won't stay long because he prefers IRL cruising much more, and knows how to do it better, but he thought he'd try just in case.
(They don't meet on Grindr anyway, this is just unconsequential lore 🤗)

Okay, I have a three-part response to this.
Part 1: The Main Sentiment
Part 2: Shameless Self-Plugging
Maybe it would be a bit presumptuous to promise you my smut is excellent, but I can at least promise you that I put my entire switch and vers gay soul into being extremely in love with both my tops and bottoms, both my doms and subs, and into giving them many feelings about all of this, easy and difficult ones.
I have a BDSM T4T series (https://archiveofourown.org/series/3264934) that can be read fandom blind and that is mostly porn without plot, so there's not as big of dialogue/narration about this topic, they are there in the background, but all fics have aftercare scenes in which it's clear that both characters may need aftercare. (Fic 2 is almost exclusively bottom/sub aftercare from the top/dom, Fic 1 and 3 are mostly top/dom aftercare from the bottom/sub, and Fic 4 has some care/help/support to a novice dom from the experienced dom as they share a sub.)
I have a series with some long fics but also a number of one-shot smut (https://archiveofourown.org/series/2918376) that can be read fandom blind where the main character is a sappy mostly top who also is much into service topping (and I don't mean that as in subbing as a top, but really as is, being at the service of, which imo can be a dom thing, it's more a matter of who's pleasure is being put at the centre to me). There is one fic of his first time with a man (https://archiveofourown.org/works/44161606) that among other things addresses the realisation that both his partner and himself before that point have never really acknowledged that sex could be vulnerable for him too, and that he's always assumed and have been assumed to have to be the one to be careful and never been on the receiving end of this. There is one fic of him hooking up once as a top and once as a bottom with a trans guy (https://archiveofourown.org/works/40721961) where the difference for him between both of those things is discussed, and also that shows the very different way they both do it, with the other guy being more controlling and self-centred (I really don't mean that in a bad way, again, I think that preferences regarding whose pleasure is at the front if anyone's is core to the diversity of sexual dynamics and there's no right or wrong way if everyone is having fun, see pillow princesses and stone butches for example) regardless of the position while he's more of service and selfless regardless of the position. There are a bunch of other fics in the series, and in non-smut ones the question of various relationships to queerness and gender and everything is central, but those are the most sex-related ones.
And finally, I have a series (https://archiveofourown.org/series/2394742) that is not really fandom blind (it's Naruto) because the fics that this is discussed in are long fics with a lot of plot, but if you want to raw dog this and only read the smut scene talking about this accepting that some plot point in them will be obscure, I'll give you the chapter ref. The character this is centred about has exclusively bottomed thus far and is usually in a sub position, by genuine preferences in part, but also a shitload of trauma. So this isn't so much about tops and doms, but it is about him trying once to somewhat dom (https://archiveofourown.org/works/35525683, chapter 9, starting at "His fingers fumble around") and once trying to top (https://archiveofourown.org/works/46041961/, all of chapter 10) with discussion/internal monologue about how this feels a lot harder for him than bottoming and subbing.
Now I'd like also to write some thoughts and feelings I have on the matter but tumblr already deleted this wip post once while I was writing, so I'm not going to tempt my luck, I'm going to post this, and then I'll post the part 3 in a second reblog lmao.
In the meantime (or at any point in life), if you have recs of fics that are either naruto or fandom blind enough and that love their tops/doms or have discussions regarding topping/bottoming, domming/subbing in general, please feel free to tell me I'd love to hear about it!
I wish more fanfic writers were empathetic to tops and doms. I think a lack of empathy there explains a lot of the fandom discourse around the idea that it’s racist to make characters with darker skin the top or seme or whatever.
Part of why it bothers people, I think, is that in fandom spaces—for a variety of reasons—people have somehow come to a consensus that it’s fine to have submissive and degradation oriented fantasies, but not fantasies about making someone submit or doing the degrading. SOME people don’t let themselves think about the interiority of those that could actually deliver them what they want, sexually. And I don’t even just mean actual sex! I can tell when a fic author actually gets off on topping or domming. Those people are kind of rare in fandom, but their fics really stand out if you know what you’re looking for. Side note—I think there’s a lot of untapped potential in whump writers, who could probably write really wonderful nasty smut, but who are ashamed of writing something sexual and worried about backlash (so they just stick to narrative torture for now).
If you instinctively think that writing a character as a top or dom means they’re incapable of having interiority or complexity because YOU can’t write a compelling top or dom character for shit, then you might also think that any writing of people of color as tops or doms is inherently bad or offensive writing. And this is sad for everyone, but it’s especially sad for the actual tops and doms of color in the real world who have to read people saying that they don’t exist, or that characters who feel like them are offensive and racist.
Ironically, the people who claim that writing a character of color as a top or dom automatically makes that character a racist or brutish stereotype are reenforcing that stereotype. I want to see more compellingly written top and dom characters who have actual wants and conflicts. Give me more woobie, extremely emotional doms. Give me self esteem issues, or the struggles of being mistreated by subs, or feeling reduced to what they can provide sexually but not seen as a good person outside of that, please.
tldr; I wish more people knew that it’s not an insult to write a character as a top or dom, and therefore that it’s not an insult to write a character of color as a top or dom.
--
#fanfiction#idk how to tag this so i'll just say i love men so so much fucking god wow#note: i also love when tops and doms shamefully enjoy themselves because again complex feelings#but some acknowledgement that is doesn't have to be shameful is good#kankuro#kiba inuzuka#shikamaru nara#shino aburame#kankukiba#kankiba#kankushika#kankushino#trans kiba inuzuka#trans kankuro

He's such an underrated character and SO fun to do alt designs of!! What are your fave ships for Kankuro? I've always been partial to KankuSaku, had this headcanon for forever that he developed a crush on her after she saved him from Sasori's poison. Like, he was in and out of consciousness when she was extracting the poison from his blood and organs and he kept seeing her face above him....... like some sort of determined pink angel lolllll
I’m a hardcore KankuKiba shipper because the chaos of those two together is just so appealing to me. However, Kanks is also one of those characters I ship around a lot as he just works with so many characters, I’m open to most ships with him. However some of my faves are;
KankuSaku - it’s cute and easy to build off of~
KankuNaru - dating your brother’s first friend risky business and the pranks would be epic
KankuIno - he’s a bit of a prankster and honestly him draping himself over a counter with a rose in his mouth would be something that would happen
KankuOmoi - Omoi’s worries would make a whole lot of sense with Kanks as a boyfriend
KankuTen - someone said this and I was like “why the heck didn’t I think of that”. Not only are they vibing on similar (but not too similar) wavelengths, but between his puppets and her weapons; they could make some sick mods to the preexisting ones or a whole new army
KankuHina - it’s cute, also gets Hinata to stretch her wings and chose a different path while bonding over strict dad’s/not living up to their younger siblings. Also feels like it could go super angsty
KankuShika - hear me out, there’s a lot of tropes here and Shikamaru would be able to pull one of my favorite lines “only I can call him an idiot” 👩🍳💋
KankuHanabi - if they made it canon, I’d believe it wholeheartedly. Like I can see them drinking together when him and gaara are visiting Konoha and it just hitting him like a sack of bricks that this wild Hyuga might be the one
KankuSui - honestly, they would try to kill each other with any slight disagreement, but really what’s water bf gonna do to him in Suna? March along the hot desert with Kankuro tracking him with a spair water bottle. That’s what

Did you know?
The best thing you can do for your fandom is to participate in it!
There are many parameters that come into play in how popular a ship is. Perceived attractiveness is one of them (which also, is fine, people ship characters they find pretty? you can question how shitty stereotype comes into play in what chara are found pretty more than others but this in itself is really normal and not an issue imo, I also write Shino because I think he's hot af 🤷). But canon presence is a big one too (Shikamaru has far more screen time and development than Shikamaru, to a lesser extent but still, same goes for Kiba compared to Shino), for example. Canon interactions as well (Tenten and Neji are often paired watching Lee interact with Gai, and there is very little moment of Neji doing something and Lee and Tenten watching). Many other stuff.
One of these many other stuff is fandom. Once I read Kankurou/Shikamaru fic, and I liked it! Now, there are 85,000 more words of KankuShika fics on AO3. It's that easy. Get the work done! Make people passionate about what you love by showing how good it is, not by saying that it's better than, or that other ships are wrong or bad!
I'm really not saying what op said is false, it's oversimplified, probably, but still probably true at least to some extent. (Albeit "is not shipped" being entirely wrong.) But your just doing yourself or your fandom a disservice by doing this. I do not believe posting this is making you happy.
Show don't tell! It's actually very easy to make people fall in love with a ship if you do content for it. People love to ship stuff! Maybe not a lot of people will fall for yours, but I assure you, as someone who writes for ships that have under 20 fics on AO3 and half of them mine, it really, really doesn't matter. You don't need 150 people in your friend group, and you don't need 150 people in your fandom either. You and those 5 others who fell for the blorbos will go a long way.
Love a lot. It's contagious.

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. spread the self-love ❤
I did it once so the first batch is here! But I can surely do five more.
1. Spit: https://archiveofourown.org/works/38992998
A post-Chuunin Exam fic of the Sand Siblings trying to live together in a tad bit more harmony and less murder than before. Once again, I love fics that explore the dysfunctions in the Sand Siblings and how they can be genuinely bad to each other, especially early on, even when they are trying to be good. Also loved exploring how autistic Gaara would use his sand as a sensory tool/protection.
2. Anything Is Better: https://archiveofourown.org/works/39333273
My first (and for now only) Baki/Yuura fic. Also it's smut. Sad smut. I love them. Much closeted men, much internalised homophobia. I've been wanting to write a fic centred more around Baki and his relationship to queerness and all for a long long time and I haven't gotten to it yet. But it will happen! For the record, this belongs to my Worldbuilding canonverse (with all the KankuShino, and with Silhouettes!)
3. The Best Thing: https://archiveofourown.org/works/44161606
Happier smut! This is my KankuOmoi fic in the KankuShika modern AU. It's a little spin-off of Kankurou's first time and coincidental discovery of his queerness. (Men are hot, who knew!) It's been very soft writing about young adults sharing this moment of tender awkwardness and I'm very happy with the result.
4. My Cigarette Burn my Finger 'Cause I Forgot I Lit It: https://archiveofourown.org/works/39983637/
This is from the same modern AU as The Best Thing and Before a Doll. KankuShika "meeting the parents" fic, except they're not dating yet. Mortifying position to be in, but very funny for us. This is also what triggered the current writing of Haemorrhage since it starts tackling Kankurou's history of addiction and the evolution of his relationship with his siblings.
5. From the Day I Decided to Carry You: https://archiveofourown.org/works/36113848
I will admit the porn-to-plot ratio of that one is a bit weird but it just- it happened like that haha. It's a KakaGai fic about Gai cutting and caring for Kakashi's hair. An exploration of vulnerability and self-care with some dysphoria sprinkled on top. It happens post-Land of Wave arc, and there is also a discussion of Kakashi's feelings regarding having his team, having killed Haku, etc... I found it frustrating that we've gotten so little of Kakashi's reaction to these events because I can't imagine how fucking traumatic and triggering Haku doing the exact thing Rin did must have been. (Not to mention, you know, the fact that he murdered a kid in front of kids?) So I wrote about it. But they also fuck in the middle. That's the fic.

Snippet Monday!
From my KankuShika "meeting the parents except they're not dating they just fuck" fic: https://archiveofourown.org/works/39983637
[18:34] Kankurou: Are you really sure this is okay? [18:35] Shikamaru: Yeah of course why wouldn’t it be? [18:38] Kankurou: Because I’m gonna spend the evening in the same room as your parents who know I fuck their son [18:39] Shikamaru: Well I guess you know my parent fuck each other too so you’re even [18:39] Kankurou: Gross?? [18:40] Shikamaru: How did you think I was born [18:40] Kankurou: I don't [18:41] Kankurou: I don’t think about your parents conceiving you, they don’t think about you and me touching each other’s dick, that’s kind of the whole arrangement I was trying to preserve so far
