Sunlight warms your face as you sit at a wooden table. You sit in silence with yourself. Accompanied only by the sound of a soft breeze and a few chirping birds. A range of flowers sits before you, ranging anything from chrysanthemum to peons. Besides the flowers sits a pair of scissors. Using them to cut stems off of a few flowers here and there as you put together a small bouquet.

“What are you doing?” A soft voice asks from inside the doorway to the greenhouse you sit inside of.

Turning to look at the source of the voice and you find your loving boyfriend. A smile as warm as the sun shines on his face and you can’t help but mimic it. “I couldn’t sleep. Came here to do some arranging.” You respond. Watching fondly as he makes his way to your side.

He still wears the clothes he had slept in. He must have just woken up and upon finding your side of the bed came straight out to look for you. The sleepy was still in his eyes even as they look upon you with love.

A chilly hand touches your shoulder, moving to soothe across your neck. His teal eyes glance at your project before looking back at you. “They look as beautiful as you do.” Gaara compliments you.

For the years you had been together it took him quite a while to willingly touch you. Skin on skin contact had been one of his biggest fears. For so long, anytime your hand would reach for his; you were met with a wall of sand. Any brush of skin would have him standing frozen in place. He had never done any of it on purpose though and you knew that. It was pure reflex for the deeply traumatized man. Now it almost felt like he never wanted to stop touching you. To never let you go so he would never have to fear being truly alone again.

You wave his compliment off with a smile. It was too early to be so sappy. You set down your scissors to fully turn and face Gaara. “What about you?” You ask curiously as you grab hold of his hand gently. “Off to some important kage meeting I assume?”

Gaara shakes his head, lifting your hand to his lips and placing a small kiss against your skin. “No, not yet anyway. Just missed you.” He admits with a shy look. Glancing from your pretty face to the flowers you had gotten up that morning to work on.

It was truly a miracle how far the two of you had come. Once, so long ago, he would never have reached for you first. Would have distanced himself as far as he could. But now he sought you out first. Missed you simply because you were not by his side the moment you both woke up. It made you feel wanted and loved. You could only hope he felt the same.

You stand with the help of your boyfriend. Leaning in to kiss him and he meets you halfway more than eagerly. After you two part, he guides you towards the door he had entered from as you two plan to return to your shared home.

“Let’s go make some breakfast.” You offer. Your fingers intertwine with his, giving his hand a tight squeeze. A reassuring gesture that you would never let him go either.

You’d have to return to your flowers later.

good timezone enjoyers of my nonsense and welcome to chapter six of tgod! (look i decided to separate my chapter updates into posts because i like the banner and want to post it more lmao)

chapter 6: Hangover Shot: Amazake (6/8) yes you read that chapter count right chapter rating: e pairing: gaara x rock lee chapter warnings: alcohol :), mild nsfw, mild dubcon but like in a comedic way chapter teaser:

Over his shoulder, he caught the eyes of both Temari and Kankurō at the bar, watching—oh gods, he was cursed—the entire scenario unfold with eyebrows raised. What could he possibly say to Gaara’s siblings to explain this? What could he possibly say to himself to explain this?

let's throw one back babey ;)

[hitorimaron]

Gaara reached over, sliding his fingers over the side of Lee’s neck, finding gentle purchase at the back of it. He waited to see Lee turn his face back to him, his usual broad smile smaller, so much softer… softer than ever. And then he…

it’s so funny to me reading au narusasu fics where people write all the characters reactions to sasuke dating naruto like “naruto…? Really??” when i js know it wld be the other way around. canonically naruto was making people fall in love with him, either platonically or romantically, left and right. i’ve seen people ship him with characters he’s had a maximum of three scenes with, and i’m like “yeah makes sense” (UNLESS ITS AN ADULT) because naruto just fucking had chemistry with EVERYONNEEE. gaara was in love with him, sai was in love with him, neji was in love with him, lee and him probably kissed once, hinata was ALSO in love with him, shikamaru was his best friend and 100% would’ve killed for him given the chance. there was canonically a bridge named after him. everyone he meets always has stories to tell about how he changed their life. if ANYTHING, these characters reactions to sasuke dating naruto either would be “i get it” 10 times over or “i could treat him so much better bro 😭 😭” fuck sasuke’s canonical pretty boy shit he would have an ARMY of naruto’s best friends making bets on when sasuke’s gonna fuck this up

[ character questions meme ] *coughs* give us nardo's thoughts on gaara pretty please?

meme . / @cptnslog

that`s something i could probably go on about for awhile to be honest. gaara and nardo have one of the most interesting bonds of the entire anime / manga in my humble opinion. they are like mirrors of each other when meeting. they both suffered UNIMAGINABLE pain & emotional trauma. yet, circumstances differ slightly and so does their outcome & outlook on things at first.

at first nardo was a bit wary of gaara but not threatened / scared as most shinobi were. he could feel their alikeness, as we all remember watching / reading the canon material. for me though, it goes a bit further than that. he saw a semblance of himself in gaara. he could've been the same. he could FEEL the pain they both suffered as my nardo is empathic in nature. but, he could also tell were they were different & why their pathes alternated.

both of them suffered most of it ALONE. but nardo didn't have the flawed seal problem & assassins coming for him as far as he was aware. (i personally think danzo might have tried tbh) we all also know that he possesses an unshakeable POSITIVE VIEW on things despite all of it. combined with all gaara has been through though and how gaara found himself; the original wariness & tentative friendship he offered turned into a very deep friendship.

despite their distance nardo CARED DEEPLY. he admired gaara for his strength and resiliance. he was proud of his progress & the bonds the other jinchuriki created despite his hardships. they are still a mirror of each other to nardo though. yet again they have their differences & shared qualities. gaara truly is someone that nardo would take a bullet for even when they could not grow up alongside each other for a lot of their younger years.

but the deep respect & fondness & given their shared hardships there will always be a connection between those two that NO ONE ELSE will be able to share. even if they might see things different or feel different about something nardo would never DISREGARD gaara or not think about what his friend had said. most people think of naruto as a thick headed fool i suspect but he isn't one at all. he values his close people thoughts / feels at ANY GIVEN TIME.

gaara is somebody nardo will ALWAYS look for if they'd get lost in a crowd as well to signifiy how much he looks out for the other shinobi. if given the opportunity to travel to see his friend he'd take it right away as well. there is no way he'd not jump at the chance to go spend some time with gaara. he wants to make sure that they can make some memories & share some laughter. in nardos mind his friend deserves that to make up for the time they didn't have together as kids. he wants to make up for the lost childhood of gaara whenever possible. you could say it's one of his goals to give him those years back when possible and whenever they meet.

gaara is incredibly precious to nardo. there is possibly no one that compares to their bonds to be honest. it's too unique & different from any other relationship he's build over the years.

so tldr; nardo admires gaara & grows to love him in his own golden boy / sun ways despite their first meeting. gaara is somebody he greatly admires & respects. he'll always consider gaara's views on things & take those to heart. he's also somebody he'd go to unthinkable lengths for if needed. even fight death himself as we saw during the akatsuki fights.

I think it’s hilarious to watch people get mad about Boruto being character assassination because it IS until you consider the possibility of a poly situationship. Sakura is Sasuke’s wife, and Sasuke is Naruto’s husband, and Naruto is Hinata’s husband.

And also consider that Naruto has probably put in some actual damn work since he become Hokage.

Can’t do anything about Sasuke avoiding Konoha but I’m honestly not surprised about that, he’s a bit traumatized. Is he protective of it now? Yes! And that’s NOT WEIRD. Maybe the Konoha before was corrupt, but Naruto can LITERALLY SENSE NEGATIVE INTENTIONS(WHICH EVERYONE SEEMS TO HAVE FORGOTTEN?!)

Root has been disbanded and Naruto’s pretty clearly weeded out the corruption around him! Hell, they might never have brought UP the Hyuga branch-main family argument, but it’s clearly been dealt with considering neither Hanabi or Hinata have branch family seals, nor does Boruto or Himawari, when it’s explicitly mentioned that the heir remains in the main family while their siblings get seals.

(I wouldn’t be surprised if Naruto having kids with Hinata was what caused that issue to come up, honestly. What, do YOU want to be the Hyuga elder that explains to the Fifth and Sixth Hokage, as well as all the other Kage, and the entirety of Konoha, why their Hero’s kids should have a torture-seal placed on them?)

Like come on man, this is a village that finally DOES represent Naruto and Sasuke’s goals! It makes SENSE that he’d want to protect it now!!!

Also not surprised that Sasuke is awkward about Sakura and Sarada, my boy has No Idea how to interact outside of Naruto, and frankly if he does have feelings about her, as an autistic person who can’t handle emotions, I too run away from the people I care about when I get overwhelmed about caring for them. The people that I DON’T run from are the ones who chase after me often enough that I get used to caring about them.

Furthermore, Naruto doesn’t avoid his family! If you watched Naruto The Last, or hell, the day Naruto become Hokage, you know Naruto didn’t even BECOME Hokage until his kids are older, which he MENTIONED was a choice on his part so he could spend more time with them before they entered the Academy. The movie takes place during the Chunnin Exams, which are canonically more work to maintain, especially when it’s all five villages attending. In the series, we’ve seen Naruto come home much earlier outside of big, international events, take days off to spend with his family, and use clones for work while he stays home! Like he DOES spend time with his family, kishimoto himself said Boruto’s outbursts were more about getting used to his dad having any job at all(as he was a very powerful Shinobi who honestly didn’t have a lot of missions at his skill level) after being pretty much a stay-at-home dad. Hell, in the after-credits scene in Naruto the Last, it’s implied that Hinata was still an active Shinobi, and considering the age of the kids, I would not be surprised with Naruto staying at home with the kids up until Naruto’s ascension as hokage. And I NEED more fics if this time period, I’m DYING.

Anyway, Hinata and Naruto love each other, and Naruto and Sasuke love each other. Honestly I’m a bit iffy on Sasuke and Sakura but I kinda like the idea that she’s his beard which is why she’s never shown to mind when he’s not home lol. I CAN actually see them loving each other too, though I don’t think Sakura has a lot of skill with Uchihas that run from their feelings haha. Himawari is Naruhina’s kid, while Sarada and Boruto 100% have a mom and 2 dads. And I think with this interpretation, the whole show suddenly makes sense.
