✩彡･ﾟContext : A love/hate AU where Sakura would have been in love with Itachi all her life, but when he slaughters the uchiha clan (except for Sasuke) she finds herself heartbroken. She hears of Itachi's prowess throughout the five great Shinobi nations. He even joins the Akatsuki, much to her dismay. So she vows to bring Itachi to justice and bring him back to the village, even if it means dying. In this AU, Sakura is much stronger than in the canon, having devoted herself to her training from an early age.

Of course, she is unaware that the Uchiha massacre was ordered by the village's higher-ups, and that Itachi is in fact a spy.

Obsession. Character study. Art.

for Feedback Fest 2024 I went through my bookmarks and managed to choose 10 completed fics + 1 I am avidly subscribed to. Some are novel-length. Some are ficlets. Some are fluff and funny and others are the most exquisite angst I have ever read.

All have an undercurrent of one or all of the themes above.

In no particular order (because Tumblr acts funny when I try to move them) and color-coded by medium for convenience:

Astarion's No Good Terrible Day by Qoboe. Tav x Astarion (BG3). Astarion keeps living the same day at the goblin camp, and Tav dies every time.

Seasons by StinglessWasp. GhostSoap (CoDIII). Four seasons, five countries, six months.

those hands were meant to love by Ahenix. TwiYor (SxF). Five times Loid Forger uses his hands to express love, and the one time he receives love through touch.

keepsakes hold power by dustandstatic. ThanZag (Hades). God's keepsakes and blessings change zagreus' appearance and behavior during an escape. Thanatos takes notice.

Things More Initimate by icarus_chained. Steve x Natasha (MCU Avengers). He'd asked her if he could draw her. She'd teased, wondering at the kind of drawings he meant. In the end … in all innocence, maybe he'd drawn something more intimate still.

i found my heart in your chest by snickiebear. KakaSaku (Naruto). Here’s the thing about loneliness: it eats you whole.

a knife in the country by cicak. Agnes x Rios (Picard). Agnes can't even begin to state the nature of her psychiatric emergency.

Conquest by ProlixInSpace. Shakarian (ME3). She doesn’t resent it exactly, but it’s just very hard to be comfortable in the presence of a 15-foot bronze replica of yourself. (She wonders often which of them has more metal parts.)

The Space Between by theSealby. Sylvix (FE3H). Felix keeps noticing a man in a museum.

must be this tall to ride by viperbranium. Stucky (MCU Avengers). Or how Bucky should probably pay more attention to the people around him before talking obscenities about a National Icon.

I Look To You to See the Truth by BitchBot3000. NejiHina (Naruto). Post-war, Hinata's life takes a different path and Neji is given the chance to dream.

it's you again - nejiten week '24

day 3 - 缘分 (yuánfèn; chinese) the destiny, the fate, or the luck that brings people or things together.

soulmate au - in a world where something memorable your soulmate says to you is tattooed somewhere on your body…♡

The sound of Tenten’s alarm woke her up with a jolt. She groaned, rolling to the side and groping for her phone on the bedside table. It was five-thirty in the morning, and the sun wasn’t even up yet, but it was the only free time she had in her schedule to go to the gym.

Ah, yes. The joys of being employed. Kind of.

She’d recently taken up a new tutoring job for some rich kid, and it ever so conveniently fell during the times she usually went to the gym, so, after weighing her options (not taking the job and giving up the money for a few extra hours of sleep, or giving up her precious sleep in order to afford rent and her tuition), she decided that the importance of sleep was subjective, and who really needed eight hours every single night? (Terrible advice, by the way, and she knew that. She was just coping.)

So because of that, she decided she would start going to the gym earlier in the morning. This is good, she thought, eyes bleary and head pounding as she sat up in bed. She was desperately trying to convince herself not to fall back asleep. I’ve been meaning to start getting up earlier anyway. Self-improvement and all.

She rubbed her eyes, taking a deep breath and resting her head against the headboard. This was only the first day of this new arrangement and she was already sick of it.

Do it for the money, Tenten, she thought, finally getting herself off the bed and into the bathroom. The inscription on her ribcage was visible to her in the mirror from under her bralette. Her soulmate mark.

‘It’s you again,’ it read.

She’d had it all her life—similar to the rest of the population—and at some point, it stopped being something she noticed. Or thought about, really.

A lot of people were very fixated on finding their soulmate, and there were even people you could go to (finders, they called themselves) to help you reach that person, but, even with how spiritually inclined Tenten was, she found she never really cared for the notion. Nor did she believe in those Finders, but whatever. Sure, meeting your soulmate and eventually getting into a relationship of some sort seemed nice in theory (I mean, wasn’t that the whole point?), but the reality turned Tenten off from it. There was so much pressure to be with your soulmate—so much pressure for it to be perfect. It was a very idealised, romanticised version of reality that it made Tenten roll her eyes.

It wasn’t like she was a cynic or something—far from it—but come on. There was no guarantee that any relationship of any kind would be ‘perfect’, right? It’s human nature, isn’t it? People disagree and fight and argue and make up and compromise and do it all over again; that’s what it means to live and interact with others. So despite the point of the soulmate system being to find that perfect relationship, there was still no guarantee. And you’d think that that much would be obvious to people. You’d think they’d grow to expect it by now, but no. The amount of soulmates who don’t actually end up together, for a lack of trying, is more than a lot of people would care to admit.

After all, the downside of a system designed to offer the path of least resistance is people running away at the first sign of trouble. It’s human nature.

So while Tenten was not a cynic, she was satisfied with not being a romantic either.

︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹︶

Neji pulled on a black shirt and grabbed his gym bag before heading out.

It was still quite early in the morning, and he liked that. He enjoyed the quiet serenity of the early morning; it was the only time this city was quiet. Well, relatively, anyway. And that’s why he liked going to the gym that early in the morning.

The gym was pretty empty at six am, and the only constant presence he could expect there was usually his (unofficial) workout partner, Rock Lee. Though he supposed they were more friends now than anything.

The first thing he noticed when he got to the gym (yes, he’d walked there. It was only a few minutes away and it was a good warmup) was the dark blue Audi parked in what would be his usual spot on the days he chose to drive. The gym, though large, would not be that empty anymore, he thought with some irritation.

(Okay, sure, he knew he was being somewhat unreasonable and that this was very much a non-issue, but still. It was six am, and he’d stayed up the previous night studying for a Criminal Law exam he had later in the week. He deserved some slack and an empty gym.)

Oh, come on.

The first thing he noticed when he walked inside was a girl. Which usually wouldn’t be much of a surprise—he wasn’t an incel, thank you very much—but she currently appeared to be using his jump rope, in front of his chest press machine, and her bag (which he hazarded to assume was the pink one with a fluffy pastel charm that looked like it would make cute jingly noises when it moved) was in his bag’s spot.

He hazarded another guess regarding the identity of the parking lot thief.

The thief in question was currently done warming up, it seemed, and she set down the jump rope to grab her (reusable and also pastel) water bottle, humming a popular song he’d heard his little cousin listen to before under her breath.

Because of course she was the type to listen to TWICE while jumping his rope.

Okay, that sounded weird, he realised belatedly. He also realised that he was still standing there being pissy and staring at her, which was not only weird and creepy, but also unproductive.

Weirdly, though, Lee was not here today. Huh, he thought with a hum. He’d send him a text later, he supposed, but for now, he set his bag down next to his usual spot, and grabbed a different jump rope. What-fricking-ever.

︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹︶

Tenten pulled on a pair of black tights, a black miniskirt, and a cream knit sweater before grabbing her bag and getting in her car for the third time that day, only this time, she was so nervous she thought she might throw up. She never knew what to expect when it came to these tutoring jobs—and a big part of her was annoyed to admit that the thought of those pesky kids disliking her irked her a little.

Well, irked was the wrong word. It more so… unnerved her, if you will.

Okay, it scared her. In the same way a mob of younger teenagers passing by her made her nervous. Big fucking deal.

And especially this client, whom she found out was very rich. That was, obviously, also terrifying.

She finally pulled up to the location— a mansion that looked more like a castle than anything. Lovely.

Maybe these clients were a little richer than she’d originally thought.

She reread the email that said, ‘Ring the gate when you arrive and introduce yourself as Hanabi-sama’s tutor,’ and sighed. It felt like overkill to her, but whatever. At least the pay was good.

She did as instructed, and when she was let in by a fricking butler, she had to hold back an absurd laugh. Who the hell were these people? Like, okay, sure, she looked it up and found out they were some huge conglomerate or something, but like…? Just how rich were they?

୨୧

So they were apparently very rich, if literally everything around her was to go by.

Hanabi, the fourteen year old she was tutoring, was incredibly sweet, though, so that was nice. Not at all as intimidating as she’d feared.

“Okay, so,” Tenten started, pulling Hanabi’s notebook closer and marking something with her pen, “ihr in Akkusativ is euch not sie…”

They were interrupted by the door of the study room (yeah, they had that) opening and someone walking in.

And holy shit. It was that guy from the gym.

He seemed to have the same realisation, for his jaw dropped open, and he stopped in his tracks.

“You’re the guy that kept glaring at me,” she blurted out.

He blinked, and with a curious sort of confusion in his voice, said, “It’s you again.”

Whumptober 2024: Day 1

Neji Hyuga x Reader; "Was I even on your radar?"

You sat next to the same old river as ever. Waiting for Neji to meet you again today. Playing with a sharp-ish stick, drawing simple shapes in the mud and dirt. It was all you could to keep your mind off how the sun was moving through the sky, the countless hours you were spending.

Waiting for one person.

It was late, far too late for you to even bother smiling when the brown-haired individual in question made his presence known. You were certain he had said "in the morning" not close to sundown.

"[Name], I didn't keep you waiting, did I?" He stepped through the underbrush without a single tell that he noticed your expression, "I know I'm a little late-"

"A little late?" You shot, "I waited here all damn day for you to show up."

"Oh." He stopped a couple feet away, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean for you to-"

"Save it. I'm going home."

The change in his tone was unmistakable, "Then why did you wait around if you were just going to leave the second I arrived?"

"Because I wanted to give you the courtesy of knowing that I was here at some point."

"You act like-"

"Was I even on your radar at all today!?" You turned, throwing the stick at his head, "Am I ever on your radar? Or am I just that one person you sometimes decide to care about when its convenient?"

He dodged your drawing utensil easily, glaring daggers at what you said. As if you could ever know what he had to go through just to be able to see you at all.

"Why would you-!?"

"Because I am always the one left waiting here for no good reason!" You marched back toward him, "You never bother telling me anything even when you do show up! I thought I loved you, thought that for once I could be happy but no! All I get is pushed around and forgotten! I'm done!"

Neji caught your wrist before you could turn away, "[Name], listen- [NAME]! Just listen to me!"

For all your struggling, Neji was stronger, grabbing your upper arm before you could free your wrist.

"I... I know you're out here by yourself but you don't have to be!" He tugged you back, knocking you off balance and further into his arms, "You could come to the Hidden Leaf Village. You wouldn't have to worry about-"

"After how you treated the other outcast?" You spat, "I don't want any part of a village, especially one that can't separate the person from the monster they were doomed to be."

Neji's grip eased off, shame setting in. Even as he watched you leave, he couldn't contest what you'd said. He had once been against outcasts himself...

But you were different to him. If only he could help you see how the village changed...

KakaGai Halloween 2024: Honoring the Fallen

Promt: Thunderstorm Pairing: KakaGai Summary: Some time ago, during what had been the last year of Kakashi’s time as Hokage, the Lands had reached an accord to mark in their common calendars a day to honor those who had died, be it in battle or just as part of life. A common celebration that each country —each village or city— could celebrate in the way they thought adequate. Something to remember those who were not there anymore. In silence, his husband and him prayed. Each one with their own faiths. Each one with their own beliefs.

The rain started about four in the morning, shortly after Gai jolted awake due to a nightmare that evolved into acute pain through his right leg. Even when barely functional anymore, the limb was still affected by quick changes in the weather. And not at all happy with it.

The taijutsu master had tried to sleep the feeling away after taking a pill for the pain, but half an hour later he still found himself clenching his teeth. At the end, his only option had been disturbing the peaceful sleep of his husband, who had not doubted a second before assisting him with his Raiton and cuddling afterwards.

Their true morning started several hours later, when the sun was supposed to be up and shinning. Instead, a loud and grey thunderstorm forced them to have the lights on in order to see. Breakfast was calm and silent, as it had become a tradition during the last few years.

Some time ago, during what had been the last year of Kakashi’s time as Hokage, the Lands had reached an accord to mark in their common calendars a day to honor those who had died, be it in battle or just as part of life. A common celebration that each country —each village or city— could celebrate in the way they thought adequate. Something to remember those who were not there anymore.

And so, after breakfast Gai had left his husband cleaning and cooking for the rest of the day while he set up the altar in their house. It was situated behind their sofa, next to one of the big windows in their living room. That way, the position was perfect to offer some privacy for the prayers, but at the same time their love ones could still observe the sky through the glass, although their pictures were strategically situated to avoid the sun messing up with them.

Carefully, the taijutsu master removed everything from the furniture and cleaned it thoroughly, ensuring the photos were also free of dust in their frames before putting them back. It was a little painful, to bend himself in order to do all that without kneeling, but he knew that forcing his right leg so soon would most likely mess with the rest of his day, and he wanted to at least finish his work.

Next, Gai opened the cabinet underneath the altar to take out his father’s old nunchakus and the sword that once had belonged to the White Fang, bringing them up into their rightful position. In the past, both weapons had stayed permanently there, but as Kakashi’s and his students decided to have children and asked them for babysitting, they had to do some arrangements.

By the time he was done with his part, the house had filled with the nice smell of food and his husband was ready to leave the offerings on the wooden altar, several small plates covering the empty spaces in between the pictures. For the final detail, Gai added a couple of incense bars that burned slowly and mixed nicely with the smell of their home.

He was about to kneel down and pray when a hand on his shoulder stopped him. Lifting his eyes up, he saw Kakashi offering him a padded pillow for him to comfortably sit, the pressure on his knees being alleviated that way. With a smile and a short kiss, he took the cushion and arranged it just in front of the altar. At last, his eyesight was at the same level as all the love ones’ they had lost: their fathers, Asuma, Neji, Minato, Kushina, Obito, Rin. People whose legacies they were trying to protect.

In silence, his husband and him prayed. Each one with their own faiths. Each one with their own beliefs.

Time moved on quickly, even when the thunderstorm outside didn’t make it easy to notice. At one point, Gai found himself satisfied enough to get up —a hand grabbing at the sofa for support—, and left Kakashi there, knowing better than interrupting him. Instead, he went to the couch and sat to continue reading the book he had started a couple of days ago. He might not be as fan of literature as his husband, but he still appreciated it anyways.

It must have been close to midday when Kakashi finally left his spot to instead stretch himself on the sofa, using his lap as a comfortable pillow. Gai brushed his wild, grey hair with his fingers as an acknowledgment before continuing reading.

“Do you think…” the Hatake started. “Do you think they listen to us? Appreciate the gesture?”

“Well, I’m sure that, wherever they are, all of them are still busy, my love” he responded with a soft smile. “But still, I don’t have any doubt that they heard us.”

“It wouldn’t matter, if they didn’t”

Instead of answering, Gai remained silent to see where his husband was going with the comment.

“We would keep doing it, anyways” he concluded.

The taijutsu master nodded with conviction.

“Undoubtedly, rival” Gai agreed. “We owe them.”

Summary: Sasuke's orderly life at elite Sairiumu Academy is disrupted by the arrival of Hinata, a timid transfer student whose obvious crush on him, a young man dedicated to his craft and his current relationship, stirs unease. (Initial SasuSaku with SasuHina endgame, modern Norse myth AU, high school, angst, romance, photography, postmodern-ish fic). Rated T

LIGHTS,

BOWS, and

MISTLETOES

an entry for SasuHina Month 2024, Day 27 : Forget and Remember

(for peachy-hina, since December)

Part 1: Lights

go to Chapter List>

He was sorely mistaken to think anything he said to Hinata would make a difference.

He’d been agonizing over Inuwashi’s theme: mood boards that lacked spark, books, and magazines strewn about in his office; he just couldn’t find inspiration. But it was high time he made up his mind.

To go above and beyond, things have to be right at the onset. Neji entrusted him with that much. He shouldn't steer the club publication aimlessly, taking up whatever social issue seemed relevant, slapping random pretty photos into one collection, submitting it for the Kage Jinkoutekina Radiance Capture Merit Prize Competition, and calling it a day.

Sairiumu's Photography Club's inception can be traced back to a small group of visionary students who, driven by a passion for documenting and preserving history, embarked on a journey to capture the essence of their era through the lens of a camera. Over time, this led to archives that date back 300 years, amassing a rich tapestry of visual history that chronicled the evolution of culture, society, and technology of former Konoha, now Metro Konoha.

Indeed, the archives are the Photography Club's pride and heritage, and Sasuke's predecessors didn't shy away from utilizing its treasures for older issues of Inuwashi. Even so, it didn't win them a Kage-Jin, as it is fondly called in the photography world. He studied previous winner publications and found two common traits: a stronger theme, and high aesthetic value.

To clear his mind, he took a week off school—a privilege he has as club president—and went hiking along the mountain trails of the Konoha Natural Reserve. He ached for the serenity and the scenery by the lakes; animals are also easily his favorite subjects. Convincing an increasingly distrustful Sakura to let him go solo backpacking for a week had taken great pains so it came as a bitter disappointment when he found the trails packed with tourists.

Though he managed to take pictures and enjoyed the view, he wasted his time when he returned that Monday, the day of the qualifying exhibition for aspiring new members, without a solid theme still. Adding to this stress was seeing Hinata Hyuuga’s name on the list of participants who made submissions. Had he not taken a week off, he could’ve rectified this mistake with the recruitment committee early on, not during the exhibition proper when he strode at noon where it could be unseemly.

“Are you sure you checked all of these names?” said Sasuke, his tone dripping with accusation. Already, he could feel stiffness returning to his muscles, the pressure steadily increasing at his nape.

Tenten tilted her head curiously, taken aback. “What do you mean? We’ve checked everything twice. All these names have their entries inside with designated bead urns all accounted for.” There had been a case of hacking during online voting in the past, so the recruitment committee took to devising creative means year after year.

“Isn’t there a master file that shows the exhibit numbers with the names? Show it to me,” he demanded, his nostrils flaring as he kept his anger simmering at a level. If he were to ask directly which one is Hinata Hyuuga’s, he would seem more suspicious. All entries were identifiable only by their assigned number.

Tenten hesitated for a moment, her brows furrowing slightly at the unusual request. “I’m sorry, Sasuke, but that file is strictly confidential. Only I, as committee club head, have access to it.”

Sasuke raised a brow. “I’m the president…” He let the sound of the title hang in the air and when this didn’t seem to convince Tenten, he added: “Read the club rule book. There are exceptions given to the club president.”

“But that’s how I’ve been instructed by the upperclassmen before I assumed office. Only I can know the master list–”

“I do things differently,” he replied. “It’s crucial that I understand the quality of this year’s candidates. Besides, I’m not going to vote.”

“You can, though.” Tenten remained skeptical and avoided his eyes, much to Sasuke’s irritation.

He let out a frustrated sigh and pinched the bridge of his nose. He ought not to make a scene, not in the open where teachers and other students could be out and about. Reminded of this, Sasuke regained his calm.

“I’m not interested in who makes it,” he assured her, “I’m only interested in what they can do and how they think. Now, show me!” He held out his hand impatiently.

Tenten looked up, a hint of concern crossing her features. “Fine,” she replied cautiously, unlocking her tablet and handing it to Sasuke. “But please understand, the file contains sensitive information.”

Satisfied that he got what he wanted, he sent Tenten and the others to take a break. As he scrolled through the master file, he realized why Tenten was so protective of it. The document contained sensitive details like family background, home addresses, and contact information. And, truly, it hadn’t been an error on the recruitment committee's part— Hinata Hyuuga unabashedly made a submission, despite all that he said.

Exhibit #67: Hinata Hyuuga

Father’s Name: Restricted Data

Mother’s Maiden Name: Restricted Data

Home Address: Restricted Data

Past her other personal information, equipment used, and post-processing details was the brief description of her entry:

Mourning doves are everywhere, so commonplace that they fade into the background. Does it make them unworthy subjects? Who truly notices them?

All Sasuke needed to remember was the number sixty-seven. He could easily make up a reason to disqualify her, but his curiosity got the better of him. Who is she really? Why is her family information classified? What made her different from the others? Maybe her photo would give him some clues into her psyche.

He slipped into the exhibition hall, his ears straining for any hint of approaching footsteps, and moved in with deliberate care, avoiding any noise that might draw attention. To his surprise, he found Neji Hyuuga standing by entry number sixty-seven, his hand deep into an unlocked bead urn which would then be weighed at the end of the day to determine which top fifty new members got the most votes via porcelain beads.

How he got the key, Sasuke could only guess. Such a lowly crime that Neji Hyuuga is forced to commit.

Whatever his reasons were for pocketing in some beads for Hinata Hyuuga’s urn to lose some weight, Sasuke carefully took another turn and pretended the second time that he had just arrived.

“Neji, what brings you here?”

Sasuke adjusted his manner to be more casual, easier to play untarnished by the curse of knowledge of Neji’s crime. He couldn’t help chance a glance at exhibit number sixty-seven, of mourning doves bathing in a puddle on the side of the road, their wings as though ballerina arms outstretched, their faces of satisfied bliss while cast on the reflection of the murky water were the faces of preoccupied pedestrian impatient to get to their destination.

Neji paused at the sight of Sasuke and smirked in that regal, smart-alecky way of his. “If I didn’t know you any better…” His smile then slipped into a pensive frown. “There’s no shame in doing what’s best for the club. Better believe me when I say this one getting the most votes is bad news.”

Sasuke perused Hinata Hyuuga’s photo some more. “The most votes you say? Surely none in this row.” He then looked at Neji and half-smiled, assuring a mentor and friend that he’ll keep silent about it regardless of the underlying reasons.

Neji smiled back in mutual understanding. “Let’s go out to dinner sometime. After my exams.”

“I’d be delighted,” replied Sasuke. “But… would you mind if I ask why?”

Neji went around the other entries to drop some voting beads on the ones he deemed somewhat palatable. “It’s best to avoid some people, Sasuke,” said Neji. “They might look normal… speak normal for the most part. But somewhere along bits and pieces here and there, you’ll realize it’s better not to get entangled with such certain people even if they’re family—maybe especially if they’re family. You’d be more careful not to be associated with such kinds of people.”
