Dog days

I was thinking about the summoning technique that Sakumo Hatake might have. We settled on an okami wolf named Ekiju

My intrusive thoughts win again

Hear me out cake but with team Minato

[skykashi]

It's their love language, their heirloom 🥹❤️

[oh-no-its-bird]

Sakumo being a super popular borderline sex symbol in his era will never stop being my favorite hc, I need to see more of it

All the people his age and younger had a crush on him. It was just a Thing(tm) where 9 times out of 10, a Konoha shinobi's first crush was probably Sakumo. Even other villages young shinobi hung up his bingo book picture above their bunk and dreamed of both killing him, being killed by him (in a hot way), having a battlefield fling with him, and more. There was blackmarket fanfiction. He was incredibly popular among civilians all over fire country. Some popular romance novels had love interests very blatantly based off him.

Even before they were on a team together, Obito and Rin both had a silly kid crush on Kakashi's dad (Obito more than Rin) and he was aware of it. This did not help make him like them any more. (By the time hearing smthn positive ab his dad would have made Kakashi softer, they'd both gotten better at hiding the crush, so to Kakashi it looked like they'd gotten over Sakumo.) Even Minato had a bit of a thing for him, not really but like— strong, popular, feard and very friendly ninja who is now paying him some attention (bc hes his kids teacher) he's not immune. Kushina understands, she is also not immune. (Kakashi is going to throw a fucking fit)

Even after his failed mission, when his reputation crashes and burns within the village, he still can't completely shake his admirers— they possibly just get more disrespectful ab the attraction when it mixes with the hate. (Which tbh could make for an interesting discussion all on its own)

Kakashi is haunted by his father's insane popularity for decades after his death. He does his very best to ignore the lingering evidence of people being insane ab his father.

One day he realizes one of his favorite romance novels has a romance interest based off Sakumo and has a break down ab it and can never read the series again.

When raiding an old abandoned enemy camp w Team Ro, he finds an old, autographed photo of his dad covered in lipstick marks in the communal bathroom. He chooses to ignore it but it's quickly spotted by his teammates, who do not know who Sakumk is, and v quickly begin to remark on the poster, who this mysterious Konoha nin is, and ahaha damn he is kinda good looking, huh? (Kakashi wants to DIE)

Shisui ends up taking the poster back to Konoha with them and hangs it up in the ANBU communal quarters where it is VERY quickly recognized. And also some of the people in that room recognize it so quick bc they also used to own a similar poster. (Kakashi wants to DIE someone PLEASE kill him now)

Its only when he's given team 7 that he finally thinks he's escaped the legacy of his father as Konoha's Most Sexiest Shinobi. Only for Naruto, when being trained by Jiriyah, to find his drafts for Icha Icha very clearly inspired by his dad. Which he can never publish for multiple reasons (lingering respect for Sakumo. Also for Kakashi, who is his biggest fan and would probably never look at him again.)

Naruto somehow accidentally brings this up with Kakashi who like. Has war flashbacks and immediatley stands up and walks away as Jiryah scrambles to try to explain himself and Tsunade looks on in scorn (she will approach him later to carefully ask for the drafts while trying to seem like she's not really asking for them bc she's too proud to admit it)

Naruto and Sakura discover Kakashi-sensei's dad was a sex symbol. I don't even know how they'd react but like. Oh my god. Oh my god you guys.

Funniest option would be they accidentally revive his popularity a little bit by being so loud ab it they like, remind people ab him. + introduce another generation to the idea of him

Kakashi is crouched on the floor with his face in his hands. When will he be freed from this hell.

Sasuke does not escape tho, he goes to sound and finds a picture of Sensei's dad in Orochimaru's office (???????)

This is such a shitty sketch but the vision:

Itachi, who learned who Sakumo was from that poster thing, goes on to find a photo of him in ""Madara's"" belongings and gets super weirded out but ultimately doesn't. Super care. But also. Like. What. What.

After Itachi finds the photo, which Obito genuinley forgot he fucking had and keeps in part just bc its like one of the only belongings that remained from his Konoha days, he shoves it somewhere in Kamui to forget about.

But then in the Obito vs Kakashi Kamui fight, it fucking flutters down in the middle of the fight and Obito fucking dies of humiliation as Kakashi realizes he will truly Never Escape and that this reality is his own personal hell

Uhh endgame Kakashi becomes Hokage and accidentally retreads his father's path in becoming the new Konoha Sexy Man. Which simultaneously crushes him (he will never escape) and fills him with delight (he will now be able to impart the pain of having your father figure be lusted after by all ur friends and acquaintances onto his students)

Sometimes i think about how kakashi went from saying "im leaving/im home" to an empty house as a kid to a house full of people and i become violently ill. So these are vignette's of Kakashi's family as time goes by

[notsorryiml8]

Thanks, dad....

*For a friend who said "they should've Edo Tensei'd that man's dad" but then I had to remind her that Kakashi would have had to "kill" him...

Worst days

Tw for Kakashi’s general (terrible) mental state, including hallucinations, slight body horror and blood.

I.

II.

III.

These are parts 1, 2 and 3 out of 5. You can probably already guess who the rest will be about.

Parts 4 and 5

I have kind of taken this project as sort of like three different art studies in one (color, lineart and Kakashi's character).

It is set on Kakashi's ANBU era, where he was most depressed (and hallucinations were definetly (a common occurance/happening)). He had lost everything and everyone during this stage of his life, which is why I wanted to explore his feelings about every person he lost and how their deaths affected him.

More details about each part that you may have not noticed:

Sakumo:

Kakashi’s face is not fully visible, only Sakumo's.

At the end when he talks about the blood he refers to the floor as "wooden", but he's n the bathroom, actually standing on a tile floor, meaning he's hallucinating that he's in his old house right where he found his father.

Minato and Kushina:

They are both intentionally blurry, because Kakashi was not involved in their deaths in any way at all, unlike the other ones. He never saw them die. He just learned that they were gone.

This is also why he can’t reach them. No matter how much he runs he could not get there in time to save them, just like his sensei. He can’t go back into the past, either, so he just lost them without saying goodbye, only seeing what they left behind.

Minato is on his back in that one panel to represent the emotional distance between him and Kakashi. In canon Minato always seemed to keep a formal sort of work-oriented relationship with his team, because even though he seemed warm he was actually quite far, and he never opened up about himself at all.

Kushina's voice is simply "loud and vibrant", simply energetic, but I chose to make its connotation ambiguous because we never saw her and Kakashi interact in canon and so don’t know how their relationship was like.

In the last panel Kakashi's hand is monster-like, kind of like a certain seven-tailed beast in that one scene, which represents how he believes his influence would horribly corrupt Naruto.

Kakashi:

The color palette on the whole comic is monochromatic except for the blood and Kakashi's sharingan, representing how colorless his life was before he had his precious people with him, especially Obito.

This is the first time Kakashi's face is visible.

The focus on the "white fang" blade also works as a reminder of what will eventually happen if he breaks.

Sakumo go get your fucking dog son.

A Christmas gift for @kawkawsrii! Happy holidays!

Bonus: they went to the grandline and will come back in part 2???? i hope so?????????

Bonus 2: cute ass lil shits whom i desperately wanted to put in but couldn't cuz i'm silly like that

[mousegirltrapped]

My and @instant-bull's one of hundreds of random AUs: in which Dai recognizes how bad Sakumo is doing mentally and decides to help his hurting friend as much as he can: up to a point of living together, to make sure both he and his boy are taken care of. It's good for everyone involved really: Kakashi has a playmate, Gai has someone to bounce energy off with, taxes are being paid, and Dai and Sakumo don't suffer from male loneliness stresses of being a single father in the crumbling economy of pre-war Konoha. I'm just a sucker for found family tropes, sometimes I just want these goddamn ninjas to be happy...

Also, colors done by my husband <:3 )~~
