Moving!

Putting this blog on hiatus to focus on a single-muse blog for awhile. I'm not saying it is a permanent hiatus because I don't know that it is.

Anyway, I'd been talking about it for.. --What, the last 8 months?-- That I was considering focusing on Hinata on a single-muse blog. I miss writing and she's always been my favorite and the easiest to get in to. I've completely re-written her modern verse to make it more interesting/OC-friendly and I plan on using it frequently. Of course, my Nart verses will be there, too.

I just kind of see Hina as my OC at this point because I've done so many different things with her character that she doesn't feel like a canon character from a manga that ended like 10 years ago or something. So yeah. Hope you'll follow us over there.

So I’m re-writing and fleshing out my modern verse for Hinata because it’s always been very bare bones/boring and gives nobody anything to work with. But piggybacking off of the Otsut.suki clan lore, Hinata’s a member of the clan and they’re all aliens with a colony on the moon. They arrived to absorb DNA from humans to further their own species, but obviously things go south. Hina gets exiled to Earth for being a disappointment and yeah. Tba

It's been 6 months but I wanted to say that I am actively working on a solo blog for Hinata. I know it's taking forever, but yeah.

[musaics]

In the process of getting one-off blog for Hinata up. I’d like to return to all of my muses eventually but focusing on just one for now seems like the best move.

[musaics]

Ive been very bad at remaining active. I’ve been really focusing on my other hobbies tbh. But I miss writing, and I think I’ve been neglecting this blog in part bc its multimuse and I’m only feeling Hinata right now as a muse.

So.. This blog may focus on Hinata-only for a while? Or should I make a new single-muse blog for her? I don’t thinking writing as just hinata is permanent, but I also don’t want folks who aren’t here for my nart muses to have to see nart-only posts for an undetermined period of time.

Any thoughts?? It wont hurt my feelings of yall are like “pls make another blog or something bc I dont wanna see Nart stuff only.”

It is Hinata’s birthday!

Thinking about replaying bald gate 3 as Hinata

@daybreakrising 's Kiba from Hinata!

Hinata toys with the hem of her pale blue sweater before lifting her hands to ensure the star-shaped clips she’d put in her hair remained in place.  Her heart pounded in her chest and butterflies fluttered about her stomach as she took the last few steps towards the little storefront Kiba had asked her to meet him at.  

It was a date.  He’d asked her for a date.  Since his confession a few weeks ago, Hinata had began to warm up to the idea of exploring something with her teammate beyond friendship.   She was hesitant, of course; The last time she’d tried to “explore” something with someone she’d gotten her heart broken and almost died. And yet she still felt something small stir within her whenever she laid eyes upon the whiskered-blond. 

But the self-doubt and her feelings concerning others disappear when her eyes found Kiba’s familiar form.  She quickens her pace, a smile of both excitement and nervousness on her face.  “Kiba!”  Cue a small wave.  

She slows to a halt just before him.  “Hi.  It’s— Umm, it’s me, I made it.”  Hinata’s known Kiba for years, yet here she was, fumbling over words.  Her bashful eyes lower to her clothing.  “Is this all right? I— I wasn’t sure what to wear.”

Why is it a seemingly running theme in Bort that none of the kids are aware of their parents' accomplishments or histories or even basic clan information

[musaics]

Starter call! Specify muse please!

Neji’s response almost coaxes a dry laugh out of Hinata.  Focus on her own future?  Like her beloved cousin, she didn’t have a concrete plan for herself.  Prior to the war she had merely wanted to keep up and be on-par with her former academy classmates.  But the performance of those former classmates during the war — Sakura, Naruto, Shikamaru, even Sasuke — far outshined her abilities.   An uncomfortable pit forms in her stomach.  She felt. . Useless. But also frustrated with herself.

“It’s funny. . “ She finally responds, a mirthless smile forming on her lips. “I don’t really. . — I also don’t really know what I want for my future.  For so long, my goal was just to not fall behind, so that I. . “ 

So that I can help others reach their goals.  She’s appreciative of the pause they’ve taken in their walk, as it gives her time to focus on a single thing as she thinks; A dry leaf, slowly scratching across their path in the wind.  She stares at it as she continues: 

“It’s always been easier for me to help support others achieve their dreams than to reach for my own. Or-- Or my "goal" would always be centered around another person.” She finally lifts her gaze. The self-frustration is apparent. " I don't want to be that way anymore."

She’s not the first to ask him that, but it seems his response hasn’t experienced much evolution since the last person ( Gai sensei if he recalls correctly ) inquired about the very same thing. Neji’s main and almost sole focus since his miraculous survival had been the recovery of his physical form. The mere thought of his injuries permanently weakening him struck his entire being with fear; for what would he do if what he’d trained to be his entire life so far was suddenly ripped from under his feet? 

Become a teacher?

It was a consideration, albeit not one he was thrilled about or particularly cared to pursue though it would be preferable to being demoted to a lower Shinobi rank.

“I’ve thought about it, but haven’t reached a concrete answer yet.”

Still, despite the uncertainty tainting his future, a grateful smile tugs at his lips, pausing their strolling for a short breather against the crutches supporting his weight.

“Thank you, Hinata, but please don’t worry about me, you have your own future to think about.”

Atsushi looks cross-eyed at the drink placed directly under his nose before adjusting in his seat, elbows no longer on the table but his giant hands wrapped around the ice-cold glass.  There’s a pregnant pause as he takes a long drink from the glass, draining about half of the contents.  It was good.  Too good— It’d be over and done with before he knew it, probably. 

“Two of my older brothers played volleyball; I didn’t wanna.  Never done any ice-skating.” He responds, now swirling his straw around in his glass.  Hockey didn’t sound appealing; Too much aggression and too much time being cold.  Atsushi’s eyes slide over to the well-loved rollerblades that were neatly placed in the break room.  “Mmm.. Or roller blading.  There’s no brakes.”  Is that a hint that rollerblading made him nervous? Maybe.

Mura himself had always lived in Tokyo.  The family had originally been in an suburban area elsewhere, but moved to Tokyo a year or two before Murasakibara was born so that the older children had more opportunities for sports. 

The large boy takes another long sip from his cold glass.  “Maa.  . basketball takes up a lot of time; It’s kinda annoying.  I don’t get to work during basketball season.”  Oh, how he loves to act like basketball is such a chore to him.  “I’ve always lived in Tokyo, though, so there’s always somethin’ to do.” Cue loud slurping noises; He’s finished his glass.    

“I like arcades—  Some’re open 24-hours.  I like to play Dance Dance Revolution.”  He furrows his brows at Haruko, his lips forming a pout as he continues. “I like the claw machines, too, but I suck at ‘em.”

Haruko quietly listened to the purple giant as she prepared the strawberry milk tea he had required. She even added it a touch of taro to give it a purple shade, much like his hair.

She gave a quiet giggle at his comment on his height, although she couldn't keep a pondering sigh from following as he kept speaking. Well, she could see that; in a way, most tall people she knew easily ended up playing basketball. That or...

"Maybe you would enjoy volleyball," she suggested. Although, wasn't it also biased because of his height? "Or hockey," she was quick to add as she turned to serve him the tea in a tall glass. When she found him slouched over the counter, she barely contained an amused look, and placed the glass in front of his nose.

"Me? Well," she tilted her head with a sigh as she folded her arms over the counter. "I also work part-time in a restaurant, and my mom is a chef there. My family just moved to Tokyo and it's all so expensive compared to where we lived... So I try to earn some money myself, as I also have a younger brother."

"I don't do any sport, though," she admitted a bit embarrassed. "But I like to rollerblade. I do it whenever I can, it saves me time, and sometimes even money on transportation." And with that, she pointed at a pair of old rollerblades in the staff room behind her. "It's getting colder, though, so I gotta be careful with ice and all. And you?" She asked with a grin. "What do you do, besides baking and playing basketball?"

I’m going to take a look at my drafts this afternoon when I finish with work. If we’ve had a thread in 2023 and you are still interested in continuing it, please ‘like’ this!
