hello darling! since I already know who your fav is, tell me what is your fav ship?

Oooohhh thanks for the ask! At first, my top and only ship was Sasusaku, but surprise surprise, I began shipping Nejiten, Kakarin, and then Genshizu (in that order). They’ve all become my favorites enough for me to want to write all four pairings in a fic (I’m trying to, at least) At the moment though, my favorite ship from my top ships is Genshizu. I’ve already published two fics of them (not on the same day) on July alone XD. (If you’re interested, you can find them in my Naruto Fics page in my blog.) Even though they had little to no interaction in the anime, they did have a brief moment in the OG series. I don’t remember what episode it was, but it was during the Sound Four arc when Genma and Raidou ended up gravely injured after their fight with the Sound Four. At some point, Shizune found them both half-dead on the ground and healed Genma first before going to Raidou.  Long story short, a random user on Tumblr posted a screenshot of the scene where Shizune tried to listen for Genma’s heartbeat before making sure he’s stable enough to be taken back to the hospital (along with Rai, ofc) and then I just... started shipping them like crazy? Lol  Before you unfollow me for being weird, I didn’t just ship them bc of that one scene alone. Behold behold... my reasons: - they’re both really hard workers - they both work and run errands for the Hokage - if they ever got together in canon, they’d be a good example of office romance - poison and senbon? yeah, they go really well together, don’t ya think? - they’re both severely underrated and that seriously irks me - the way Shizune addressed Genma when she told him to stop talking or his injury will get worse kinda implies some sense of familiarity there (or if i want to be delusional, past romance that somehow by someway got ruined when she left–)  - they’re both patient, rational, and level-headed individuals and are probably overworked  - Genma’s joviality and wisecrack traits compliment well with Shizune’s stressing-over-details and workaholic personality I would write more... but I’ll stop myself from writing 69438 something headcanons lmao

The Reading Writer

Hey y’all! Sorry I’ve been MIA. There was a family emergency at the beginning of the week that has occupied most of the rest of it so, my blog has been running on mostly queued posts. I have a lot of catching up to do on my Tumblr friends’ posts, answering the Kakashi Asks, and my reading list. So while I do that, please enjoy these selections from my bookmarks:

Once Upon a Time by @antipodeanpineapplelump

Pairing: KakaObi

Summary: “‘Who the fuck are you, and why are you in my bedroom?’

‘I errrm… I was led to believe you needed rescuing,’ Kakashi said, trying to regain some of his lost dignity.

The man snorted sharply. ‘And that’s how you ‘rescue’ people is it? By trespassing and assaulting them in their beds? There is such a thing as consent asshole,’ he spat, jabbing the candle holder at Kakashi’s chest.

(Or - The little known story of how some friendly competition with Gai won Kakashi his very own happily ever after.)”

Rated: T

What’s Important  by @mrssakurahatake

Pairing: GenShiz

(From This and That; a collection of one-shots from Tumblr.)

Rated: T

By Your Side by @cyabae

Pairing: KakaObi

Summary: “Obito has a complicated past and a controversial approach to his new position as the Fifth Hokage. But he shares his life with Kakashi.”

Rated: E

Guilty by @birkastan2018

Pairing: SasuSaku

Summary: “A romance/fluff/humor piece involving a misplaced volume of Icha Icha, role play, confusion, and a heartfelt love kept under wraps... How long before everything goes down in a big pile of doodoo?”

Rated: M

No Dating in the ANBU by @maiikawriter

Pairing: KakaYama

Summary: “Kakashi and Tenzō have been called for a mission regarding two other ANBU Shinobi. It’s unusual, to say the least, but Tenzō is a professional. He can handle it if Kakashi can.”

Rated: T

And a BONUS drabble that @kendochick wrote based on my prompt, “It’s nice to know you work alone,” featuring Kakashi and Zabuza!

Please reblog - AND - share what you are reading too!

A excerpt from something I'm working on for @genmaweek

Shizune stepped back into the lobby, letting the glass door close behind her, before turning the lock to keep them safely inside. She made her way back into the apartment just as the bathroom door opened and Genma walked out in a cloud of steam with a towel wrapped around his waist.

Shizune tried to swallow, but her mouth was suddenly dry, she knew she had to be staring, but she couldn't seem to pull her eyes away. Even covered in dirt and sweat he had been more than attractive, but now. He was perfect, if that was even possible. Tanned skin stretched tight over defined muscles.

Rubbing the back of his neck he broke the silence. "Sorry, not used to other people being here. I'll be right back." Then he disappeared behind the second door. Shizune hadn't really heard what he said. She was far too busy watching water drip from his hair and roll across his skin.

Late Submission for Day 1 – Bonds

Hello, I enjoyed Genma Weekend 2020 and I hope my contribution isn’t too late… I made a two-shot fic of Genma and Shizune, and I absolutely loved writing the two of them. I hope people can show ‘em some love and appreciation! :D Title: Locked In Pairing: Genma/Shizune Summary: Genma and Shizune trapped in the Hokage’s office. What could go wrong? Or rather, what could go right? #genmaweekend2020 #day1 #bonds #genma #shizune #tsunade #kakashi #raidou #yamato #aoba

According to Plan Chapter 10

Pairing: GenShiz

Rating: E 

No warning’s apply

Summary:

When Tsunade suspects an Root spy in her ANBU Guard she must send Shizune on a mission to seek them out.

Excerpt: 

She knew Danzo would be furious that she had sent his spy away. Tsunade didn’t have the luxury of a choice. She needed to keep him close to Shizune, and she needed him out of her office. With Genma gone, if Danzo was still getting information it could mean she was wrong about the spy. Or that he had more than one. There was just too much she didn't know. There had to be a way to get to the bottom of this.

Karaoke Crack  Chapter 1: Welcome to the Jungle

Rating: T

Words: 1072

Summary: Genma puts on a show.

Excerpt: "Welcome to our first karaoke night," the words were barely understandable over the feedback that filled the room. He shot a glance to Itachi at the table at the side of the stage.

Itachi gave an apologetic wave as he fiddled with the dials and nodded for Genma to continue

."As I was saying, welcome to the first karaoke night at Tipsy's. I hope everyone is here for a good time." His eyes cut to Shizune who turned bright red before continuing. "And just to make sure of that, pitchers of Hoppy Ending are half price for the next 2 hours."

Prompt Tea Break

“Evening, Kakashi-sama.” Kakashi didn’t need to turn from his desk to know that voice, but he was thrown off by the tone. It sounded almost bitter.

Swiveling his chair around he studied the figure before him closely. Shiranui Genma was sitting on the windowsill with his feet hanging out looking like someone just ran over his puppy. That wasn’t what concerned Kakashi. The trademark senbon rolling between Genma’s fingers and not in his teeth, that was concerning. Kakashi almost felt sorry for him. “Why are you in my window and not at my door? And drop the ‘sama,’ Genma.”

“I miss my wife,” he sighed without hesitation.

“All the more reason to come to my door. You do know she is on the other side?” Kakashi was honestly confused at this sudden turn of events. Genma might be among his closest friends, but that friendship did not include sharing feelings. Their friendship was based on drinking and swapping war stories. However, the truly pathetic man before him seemed determined to mope in his window all night, and he didn’t have time for that. “Genma, why are you in my window?”

Finally turning to Kakashi he weakly asked, “So she is really still here?”

“What do you mean ‘she is really still here?’ Where else would she be?”

Genma pulled his bandana off to run his fingers through his hair before answering, “Hell, I don’t know what I mean. She leaves every morning, works from six to four at the hospital, then comes here, and doesn’t get home until at least midnight. It’s been like that for weeks. Is she…” Genma looked at Kakashi with pleading eyes.  “Is she really here that late everyday?”

Kakashi was caught completely off guard by his friend’s vulnerability. He has never seen Genma so without hope, even on the worst of missions. “We aren’t here that late are we? What is it now…like 9:30?”

Rolling his eyes Genma answered, “It’s almost midnight, Kakashi.”

“Is it? Maybe Shizune and Shikamaru were right about me needing a clock in here? Do you want to go talk to Shizune, you know confirm for yourself she really is here? Or drag her home?”

“Um…I don’t know. I hate for her to know what I was thinking. I do trust her. I just miss her so much right now. She hasn’t had a day off sense the transition. I know she has a lot to teach Shikamaru and that the hospital is busier than ever, but she is working longer and longer. I worry about her.”

“If you are so worried about her, just go out there and talk to her. I’m sure she would understand. I’m about done for the night, at least you can walk home together.”

“Do you think that’s a good idea? I don’t want her to think I don’t trust her. Not really. I feel like a fool being here at all.”

“Look, I only took over as Hokage a few months ago, and honestly I would love to move her to just working at the hospital. That has always been the plan, but she really is the only one who understands how Tsunade did things. I would never be able to get through all her unfinished projects without Shizune.”

Genma looked down at his dangling feet and sighed. “I know. I really feel kinda selfish, but this pace isn’t good for her, or for us. She won’t say anything, but she needs a break.”

Kakashi couldn’t help but to smile as his friends honest concern. He knew Genma was right. They were working an unsustainable schedule, and it would break them all eventually. “I will start closing the office on Sundays. Shikamaru and I need the break too.” Turning back to this desk he grabbed his schedule and walked to the window. “Tomorrow afternoon is pretty light, come back about six, and I’ll make sure Shizune is free for an hour or so.”

Genma finally looked up with a smile, and returned his senbon to its usual spot between his teeth muttering, “Thanks, Kakashi.” Then he jumped out the window.

The next day Genma wandered into the Yamanaka Flower Shop, where he found Ino behind the counter.

“What brings you here, Genma-san?”

“I need something for Shizune. The kind she can keep on her desk at the tower for a few days, so something in a vase I guess. I just… I want her to know I miss her. What would that be?”

Giggling, Ino turned around a pulled a vase from under the counter. “Carnations mean ‘I miss you’ and roses are 'I love you’, which are you looking for?”

“Could you maybe do something with both? Would that even look good?”

“Relax, I’ll  take care of it.” She pulled a card from the stack with the Yamanaka logo on the top corner and handed it to him.

Genma considered the card for a long time before jotting down a short message. “Ino, can you deliver them to the tower about 5:55?”

Cocking an eyebrow at the odd time Ino answered, “That won’t be a problem.”

“Thanks kiddo,” he answered as a confident smirk returned to his face.

Genma was standing just outside the stairwell at 5:55 when the elevator doors opens and Sai came out with the flowers. Shizune’s desk wasn’t close enough to see her, so he quietly crept a bit closer where he would at least hear the exchange.

“Good evening, Shizune-san. I have a delivery from Yamanaka Flowers.”

“Hey Sai. They’re very pretty, who are they for? Most everyone’s already gone for the day.”

“They are for you. Ino was very specific that I was to have them here at 5:55.” He sat the vase on the corner of the desk. “That is all I know.”

“Oh…um well, thank you.”

Sai was walking toward the exit, but turned back. “There is a card, maybe that will help.”

“Oh! Thanks.” Shizune turned the cool glass vase until she found the card.

There were two word: “Look up.”  Shizune smiled, she would know that handwriting anywhere. Following the instructions she found Genma standing in front of her desk.

“Hey beautiful,” he said with a grin.

A little taken aback, Genma wasn’t one for grand gestures, Shizune smiled back. “Hey yourself. What are you doing here?”

“Kidnapping you.” he answered with a wink.

As if on cue the door to the Hokage office opened behind them. Kakashi was leaning against the doorframe with a smile. “Shizune get out of here for a bit, and don’t come back for an hour. That’s an order.”

Shizune looked from her husband to Kakashi and back, smiling at the obvious conspiracy. She stood up and took Genma’s hand. Wordlessly he pulled her to the stairwell and turned to start climbing up

“Where are we going?”

“To the roof. We’ve only got an hour, which is more time than we’ve had in a month, but I’m not gonna waste it walking somewhere.” Arriving at the access door Shizune giggled and punched in the code.

She stepped out into the waning sunlight and gasp as she took in the roof. There was a fuzzy blanket laid out with a tea setting, dango, and tea cakes. She felt strong arms wrap around her waist and she closed her eyes to take in the feel and smell of her husband.  Leaning her head back onto his shoulders she asked, “What’s all this about?”

“Us, this is about us.” He pulled back just a bit and turned Shizune so she was facing him. Taking her hands he continued, “I know your work is important, both here at and the hospital, but we’re important too.”

Smiling at her husband Shizune pulled the senbon from his lips, placed it behind his ear, then gave him a chaste kiss. “You’re right. I’ve missed you too.” Taking his hand she pulled him to the blanket, and knelt down to sit in her yukata.

Genma sat beside her so they would both be facing the sunset. He wrapped an arm around her side and held her tightly. Leaning close his kissed her temple lightly. Holding her was all he needed to make him whole again.

Thanks to @thatlameginger aka NeonKnight for beta’ing this.

According to Plan Chapter 8 Excerpt

As she walked out of the tower she got the feeling she was being watched, in that ninja way that says to be on guard. She continued towards home with a bit more caution than normal, but could feel someone getting closer to her. This time of day the streets were busy with people making their way home, or heading out for dinner so it was crowded, but she couldn't escape the feeling someone was behind her.

Turning the corner that led to her apartment, she ducked into the alley and waited, kunai in hand. Not a minute behind her, Genma turned down her street. He stopped at the stairs to her apartment and was just standing there not moving forward. She stayed in the shadows as she inched closer to him.
