guess your trajectory

by ohwickedsoul · KakaIru

That’s a fucking kid, is the first thing that Iruka thinks. That’s the fucking jinchuriki, is the second. The first thought comes back, even stronger, overwhelming him with outrage, with fury, with a sick sort of disgust, and now it comes out as a shouted, “That’s a fucking kid.”

Then everybody st

The Bingo Book

by flailinginlove · KakaIru

Kakashi avoided relationships. He didn't want to put others in danger. So he couldn't understand why there was a face staring back at him, as a sub-entry to his own, in this Bingo Book.

Family Recipe

by themidnightguardian · KakaIru

“Naruto is a person with a name,” Iruka snapped, already way past the limit of his patience for the day. Funny, how he could spend all day with small children, but a single council meeting wore him down to the bone. “Use it.”“Hmm.” For a long second, Iruka thought that he was about to die. And then
