#there is no loyalty in this household 🤧

[adelalovesmadara]

I've come to see 'canon couples', particularly NH and SS, as people that happened to be in a marriage ― convenient marriage. They're not shown to be in a real relationship by the author Kishimoto Masashi.

On the other hand, I do see 🍥 and 🍅 as two people in a rather healthy relationship (partnership) after their second and last battle in valley of the end.

Just...

Think long and hard, do NH and SS have even just two of these qualities?

◉Mutual Acceptance

NH: *squinting* Eh. Debatable.

SS: *rolls on the floor* Hahaha, no.

◉Mutual Affection

NH: At least it's emotionally and physically absent... wait.

SS: UHM.

◉Mutual Appreciation

NH: ... uhm. One sided at best. Hinata seems to put Naruto on a pedestal more so than even Sakura does with Sasuke.

SS: Nonexistent. Sakura doesn't seem to appreciate Sasuke as a person.

◉Mutual Attention

NH: ...

SS: ...

◉Mutual Boundaries

NH: Hinata... uh... she's in the very background of the story...?

SS: Sakura doesn't take rejections well.

◉Mutual Care

NH: Lunch boxes from Hinata's side... absence from Naruto' side. Gosh NH is just.... ugh!

SS: 😴

◉Mutual Choice

NH: ... Naruto didn't. Hinata was chosen by... by 😬 the gods lol.

SS: Not found on Sasuke's side.

◉Mutual Commitment

NH: Nonexistent. One-sided commitment is one-sided.

SS: Nonexistent. One-sided commitment is one-sided.

◉Mutual Communication

NH: ... not... found?

SS: Not found.

◉Mutual Compassion

NH: One-sided. Or just friendly in nature?

SS: ... what.. is compassion in a relationship? - Sakura

◉Mutual Compromise

NH: Compromise on never really being around, more like.

SS: Bare... Nonexistent.

◉Mutual Consent

NH: ... Maybe? Seems to be reluctant on Naruto's part.

SS: Atrociously nonexistent.

◉Mutual Curiosity

NH: One-sided.

SS: One-sided.

◉Mutual Decision

NH: Well. They're in a marriage... it... it must... it must be a decision made mutually... right?

SS: Coercion. Full stop.

◉Mutual Devotion

NH: Naruto devotes his time to work and have secret meetings with Sasuke!

SS: Sakura devotes her time wearing the Uchiha clan symbol!

◉Mutual Equality

NH: ...

SS: Not found on Sasuke's side.

◉Mutual Freedom

NH: Hinata is free to make as many lunch boxes as she likes! And... Naruto is free to sleep at his workplace!

SS: Sakura is free, so free to show off the Uchiha clan symbol, anytime, anywhere❢ And ... 🙄🤧Well, at least Sasuke is free for around eleven years!

◉Mutual Friendship

NH: :(((

SS: :(((((

◉Mutual Honesty

NH: Rawrrrr

SS: Rawr

◉Mutual Inclusion

NH: Barely exist.

SS: Nonexistent.

◉Mutual Integrity

NH: 😓

SS: 😓

◉Mutual Interests

NH: Pfft.

SS: *coughing and gurgling* N-NO.

◉Mutual Intimacy

NH: ...

SS: One instance of Forehead Poke™ (that signifies lies and distance) is not intimacy.

◉Mutual Love

NH: A marriage doesn't guarantee love.

SS: A MARRIAGE DOESN'T GUARANTEE LOOOOOOOOOVEEEEEEEE!

◉Mutual Loyalty

NH & SS: Huh. Well, at least Naruto and Sasuke aren't cheating...🤤 (NH and SS marriages are the cheating ones)

◉Mutual Passion

NH: Naruto seems to have more planned dates with Sasuke more than he has with Hinata.

SS: ... Sakura is passionately dusting the cabinets!

◉Mutual Precedence

NH: ... Hinata prioritizes Naruto... uhhh

SS: ... Sakura... urghhh...

◉Mutual Respect

NH: A resounding 'yes' on Hinata's part I guess. So no, definitely not mutual.

SS: ＮＡＨＨＨＨＨＨＨＨＨＨＨＨＨ

◉Mutual Safety

NH: Hinata... 🙄 I guess.

SS: ❓

◉Mutual Strength

NH: ... Erm. Nonexistent.

SS: Non... Nonexistent.

◉Mutual Support

NH: I guess. Hmm. Not shown by Naruto.

SS: Support what?

◉Mutual Teamwork

NH: Raising children... managing a house... those things don't require teamwork yeahhh! Hinata Boruto is the boss of the household🤡

SS: ...

◉Mutual Trust

NH: Comrades! On the surface.

SS: Trust? ... Trust... Trust... 🤯

◉Mutual Understanding

NH: Superficial on Hinata's part.

SS: Shallow on Sakura's part.

◉Mutual Vulnerability

NH: One or two times... or three... but never starts with Naruto, at least not with genuine interest in Hinata as a person🤧.

SS: Sakura takes advantage of Sasuke's vulnerability... that time when he first woke up and started beating the Oto genin team... and that time when he's woken up from a coma...
