Forever And A Bit
by roymustang (SpicyReyes)

Hers
by OchiMochiMochi

by Hydre
Kids are the joy of life, cousin Mikoto once said, presenting him with the ugliest, wrinkliest, most eyesoreful infant possible.

Summer comes in like Poppies
by KeanBlade
Tobirama was so fucking frustrated. At first his lingering after death hadn’t bothered him to much, after all it was basically his choice to linger; when he was given the chance to choose- he made the chance to choose- he wouldn’t let go of the people he loved. But Madara was being kept from him and
Bellflower
by blackstarlove19
Bellflowers symbolize unchanging love, honesty, or eternal bond. Funny my name can be translated to bellflower. When I lie to cover my knowledge. When I have lost bonds both old and new. I wonder what purpose does my life serve being here now, but, I have to keep going. Hoping I make a difference.

Mine
