Just a Little Paperwork

Words: 1,717

Au: College Professors Au

For: @skykashi

Class had just barely ended when Kakashi received a call from the office. Students were still filing out of the class, some stopping to watch as he spoke to the person on the other side of the phone line. They only continued their way when the people behind them began to push, insisting upon their escape from class no matter how interested their classmates may have been in their professor’s conversation.

              “It’s Lunch time, I have plants to meet with Gai and Rin,” Kakashi insisted, half pleading even though he knew it was a lost cause.

              As he expected, the voice on the other side insisted upon his presence in her office, even going so far as to threaten him with extra out of schoolwork if he took too long getting to the office.

              His choices were limited, and with the last few students shuffling out of the room his resolve crumbled.

              “I’ll be right down,” setting the phone down on the receiver, he tilted his head back so that he was staring up at the ceiling. There were hundreds of reasons he could think of for why the dean wanted to see him, and none of them were good.

              She could be fed up with his attitude toward the students and have another two-hour lecture about taking his job seriously and not pointing out his students flaws. A lecture he would rather skip out on, mostly because if he got it from the Dean, he’d also be getting it from Gai and Rin when he inevitably told them why he’d had to cancel their lunch plans.

              If it wasn’t that, it would be another offer for him to take over her job and he was slowly starting to run out of excuses for why he couldn’t do that.

              If somehow it wasn’t either of those things, the list of what he could be about to face was neither short nor enjoyable. From lectures on his teaching style to extra work loads of paperwork the dean would try to pawn off on him. The list was endless, and unfortunately for him completely unavoidable.

              If he didn’t go to the office to speak to her willingly she would hunt him down in the hallways and everyone would get a front row seat in the chaos that was his life. There was nothing worse than gossip hungry young-adults getting their grubby hands on some juicy interactions, so rather than risking that Kakashi decided to give in.

It was better for his already crumbling mental health in the long run.

“Come on,” he patted his desk, smiling when Pakkun lifted his head and stared up at him. “We’ve been called to the office. Don’t want to keep her waiting, do we?”

Placing his paws on the desk, Pakkun stretched his little body out and opened his mouth for one of the biggest yawns Kakashi had ever witnessed. “don’t tell me you think my class is boring too,” he frowned, a smile tugging at his lips when Pakkun looked up at him with his most unimpressed expression. “Yes, I know. History isn’t for everyone, but it’s important.”

Once Pakkun was done stretching he trotted up to the edge of the desk. Once he put a paw up, indicating he wanted Kakashi to pick him up, Kakashi tucked his hands under the pug’s tiny body and lifted him up onto his shoulder.

It took only a few seconds for Pakkun to make himself comfortable in his new spot, and once he was he let out a small, sharp yap to let Kakashi know it was time for them to move.

“So bossy,” reaching up with his left hand, Kakashi gave Pakkun two quick pats on the head while turning to the door. The last of his students had cleared the room while he was waiting for Pakkun to get ready, leaving the door clear for their exit.

it was just too bad they weren’t going to lunch like they’d originally planned.

Kakashi couldn’t believe what he was hearing.

Of all the things Tsunade could have called him to the office for, he’d expected this. Even dreaded it and tried to avoid it.

What he hadn’t expected, was her reasoning.

“You, want me to do this,” he asked while pointing to the pile of paperwork sitting on the desk between them. “So that you can go out on a date?”

“I don’t get many dates.”

“a date,” he continued, ignoring her addition. “That just so happens to be with my mother.”

“Is that a problem?”

“You dating her? No, not at all. You make her happy and that’s good. I could do without hearing her calling you her ‘Princess’ but that’s an argument for another day,” waving away that thought, he glared down at the paperwork. It wasn’t too large of a pile, but it was significant.

At least two hours worth of reading and sorting into piles of what he thought she should sign, and what could go directly into the shredder.

Two hours that he could be spending with his own boyfriend instead of doing work that wasn’t even his.

“You know, as dean of this place it is your job to do the paperwork, right?”

“And I will do it,” leaning back in her chair, Tsunade stared at Kakashi with confident eyes. “You can’t sign the paperwork for me. You’ll just be thinning it out a bit. Taking out all the stuff I don’t need to concern myself with.”

“So, you can cuddle up to my mother?”

“And other things.”

Closing his eyes, Kakashi willing away the thoughts that threatened to spring into his mind after hearing Tsunade’s little addition. The last thing he needed to make his day worse was the thought of his mother doing anything adult with his boss.

              “you can’t just do this-“he gestured to the paperwork. “Tomorrow? Or before you leave today?”

“Today I have a meeting with some parents to discuss their students’ grades. I’d rather skip out on those and do the paperwork if I’m being honest, but apparently, they’re not satisfied with the teacher’s answers to their concerns.”

“Who’s the teacher?” he asked, feeling a slight annoyance to the professor who’d failed to deal with some disgruntled parents on their own.

“You.”

His annoyance didn’t ease off at all hearing that. He even knew who she was talking about, and he’d explained to them just what their kid could do to improve their grades. Apparently ‘study and hand in assignments’ was a poor answer.

“So, in return for protecting me from judgmental parents who are going to try and get me fired today…”

“You do my paperwork so I can enjoy a relaxing date night, yes,” her smile grew as Kakashi slowly accepted the severity of the situation. “is it a deal?”

Thinking it over, Kakashi sighed. “I’ll pick it up after my last class.”

“Great!” a knock came to the door at that moment, wiping the smile straight off Tsunade’s face. Glaring at the door, she huffed. “who is it?”

The door creaked open and two heads poked through with equally cheerful smiles.

Gai and Rin. His savours.

“We were just wondering,” Rin began, her smile wavering when Tsunade narrowed her eyes. “It’s lunch time, and we kind of had plans.”

“Could we borrow Kakashi?” Gai finished for her, his smile only growing when Tsunade directed her glare to him. “surely, you’re done with him now. It has been ten minutes, and there’s only fourty minutes left before we all have to go back to our respective classes.”

Folding her hands together, Tsunade set her elbows on the desk and lowered her head so that her chin was laying ontop of her hands. The entire time her eyes stayed glued on Gai, the glare never leaving her face for even a second.

She sat like that for a minute, maybe two, just glaring at Gai while his body swung back and forth. A nervous tick he’d had since they were kids, and which Kakashi couldn’t help but smile at whenever he saw his boyfriend doing it.

“Fine,” she relented, a triumphant smirk tugging at her lips when Gai sighed with relief. “The paperwork will be right here waiting for you. Don’t forget to pick it up.”

And risk a lecture from you first thing in the morning? Kakashi thought to himself. Not a chance.

Doing a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn, Kakashi lifted his hand into the air just as Pakkun jumped down off of his shoulder and trotted up to Gai. “My saviors,” he teased, ignoring the annoyed ‘tsk’ he heard Tsunade making behind him. “Just in time. Two seconds longer and she might have given me her job.”

“We could go,” Rin took a step back with a mischievous grin. “Leave you to deal with the rest of this meeting.”

“I could retire-“

Knowing what was coming next, Kakashi didn’t dare waste another second. He bolted forward, nearly knocking Gai and Rin on their asses in a desperate attempt to escape before Tsunade could even form the words he dreaded so much.

There was a lot of things Kakashi was willing to do, but taking over as Dean of Konoha College was not one of them. Nothing could keep him in that room when there was a real threat of him being handed the job, not even Gai bending down to pick Pakkun up off the floor. he'd happily knock them over again and again if it meant escaping that room.

“Hey!” Rin’s voice chased after him. “Kakashi get back here!”

“”Just bring Gai and Pakkun with you,” he called back cheerfully, trying his best to mask the fear he felt at the idea of taking over Tsunade’s job. “I’ll meet you at the café! Don’t take too long!”

She’d complain when she caught up. Gai might even scold him for barrelling through them the way he did. It didn’t matter though.

Escape was necessary. Any casualties sustained during his escape would have to be made up for with cuddled and a date night for Gai and paying for Rin’s drinks for the next week.

“Kakashi! Get back here you brat!”

Scratch that. He’d be paying for Rin’s drinks for the next month judging by the annoyance in her voice.

[depressedhatakekakashi]

One more idea on why Dai is so insistent on paying Kakashi back in beauty and the beast au:

After Dai is rescued and brought back to the castle, he wakes up wonders around and is amazed by all he finds, and eventually walks into the garden and finds a Rose bush (or maybe a different flower if you want) and sort of picks one thinking he'd being it back to Gai in his semi delusional/ sick/ pained state.

Then Kakashi comes out and is stressed for a multitude of reasons after seeing Dai casually pick one of his favorite flowers (like WHY IS THIS MAN OUT OF BED! You're at risk of hypothermia still! Also maybe seeing him casually picking a flower reminds him of all the "suitors" breaking his enchanted staff and thinking this man would do the same. Or maybe he's worried this is the man who will break his spell but he's SO OLD. Maybe he's mad because the rose reminds him of Tsunade and this curse she put on him to begin with!) And as such loses it on Dai and tells him to leave in the morning.

But Dai is no normal man. Sure he is freaked by the scary buffalo-wolf-man in a cape just yelled at him. And now the furniture is speaking to him, but then he learns some of the story from Rin who tended to him. Learned this young beast saved him and nursed him back to help. Someone might even mention how he's an orphan so all that tugs at Dai's heart strings and he REFUSES to leave before he makes things right for this kind beast that he accidentally wronged! He must make it up to him!

That next morning when Kakashi tries to make him leave he is already working on repairing the garden that has grown in disarray over the years, due to a lack of upkeep, and thanks Kakashi for his help! And promises that by next spring Kakashi will have the most beautiful garden FULL of Rose's to make up for the one he took! And that's a Maito Promise!!!

And Kakashi is just...super embarrassed and awkward and Dai refuses to leave! And starts to treat him like a normal person!!! (I wonder if he starts dad-ing him a little which makes Kakashi MORE awkward!) Whatever the case Dai will make it up to this kind furry by giving him back some happiness he accidentally took with that Rose!

This is all so sweet and really fits in with why Kakashi would snap and want Dai out when he JUST saved him.

I chose the forget-me-nots for Kakashi cuz they feel like a really good flower fit for him and maybe it was something his father planted after his mother’s death so it really means a lot to him and seeing Dai just pick one without permission really irks him.

But then instead of being afraid like other’s, Dai wanta to make things right. He wants to fix it, and he’s willing to do so at the risk of his own health

It’s REALLY awkward for Kakashi because he’s not sure how to feel about this random guy, but he’s also so nice and treats Kakashi like a normal person (and even, a little, a kid) instead of cowering from the ‘beast’. So Kakashi listens to his stories and genuinely finds him interesting (where as the village thinks Dai is useless and ‘crazy’)

So they’re both getting something from this. Dai has people who genuinly seem to care about him and want him to get better, but also want him around

Kakashi has the first real parental figure in his life since his father’s passing (Kushina never fit the role and she never wanted to take it from Yua, and Tsunade was always sort of in and out so she’s not a solid parental figure) and someone who’s not afraid of him

It’s a good week before Gai realizes his father is missing (the place he was going was three days ride away and his horse was also injured and brought back by Kakashi) and finally comes searching for him only to find him working away in a garden while he’s hacking up a lung

[depressedhatakekakashi]

Thinking about how there are multiple version’s of their birth for some gods/goddess’. Like how a god may have both parents names in some vergions/regions or may only have the parent who is a ‘god’ mentioned

Also now thinking about Mortal’s having two diffrent beliefs of who Kakashi’s parents are

The correct version: Kakashi’s parents are Sakumo and a mortal woman. Although Kakashi was borj from Sakumo’s tears his make up is a mixture of both Sakumo and his lover.

The wrong version: Kakashi is the son of Sakumo and Tsunade. The two of them had a fling and Kakashi was born out of that fling.

Sakumo and Tsunade hate the second version and wish they were allowed to wipe it from all mortal memory XD not cuz they’re totally down, but because they both love Yua in their own ways and feel it insulting to her memory

[depressedhatakekakashi]

So Sakumo and Yua get a "happy ending" in GOS verse the second time around? Like can she and Sakumo fall in love, he can get her godhood, and they can raise their three kids together in peace and harmony and Yua can talk about that hilarious time she was a fox and stole every god's left shoe and never gave them back?

Or...is there a bit of a tragic end to her and her second life as well? Is she not allowed godhood? Does something go wrong in family bonding? Will she need to be reborn a few times more like Gai or will she choose just one life to live and die by, no matter how much Sakumo begs for more time with her?

Just curious how you see things turning out for this fam? Especially since Sakumo is mentioned in many future stories but she was not.

Yua Definitly has a tragic ending, but that is largely by choice. Not because she’s not really interested in godhood, but because she understands her limits and abilities

She knows she’s made to be a hero, not a god

So she is content to slay enemies and protect her village no matter what the cost, but if she’s offered godhood she will turn it down. Not because she wishes to hurt her family (which we’ll be honest is mostly sakumo and Kakashi. Kaiyo is kind of a sakjmo/tsunade child and Obito is all Sakumo as he actively created him. Neither of them really have a biological or emotional bond with Yua.

[depressedhatakekakashi]

Yua is an ice and steel type trainer with Mamoswine as her partner Pokemon. She can almost always be seen riding on Mamoswine’s back and her giant pokemon rarely stays inside of its pokeball.

Yua is also known for having a Jolteon at her side at some point. No one really knows when or why it arrived, but they think it’s fitting

The only people she has given a reason for her random electric pokemon are Sakumo, Tsunade, Kakashi and Mifune

Mifune teases her every-time he see’s her for being sentimental enough to get the same Pokemon as her son. He thinks it’s adorable but also, Yua gets so flustered every-time it’s mentioned and it’s so rare to be able to fluster her

He HAS to take advantage of it

Parenting Struggles

Pairing: Tsunade/Yua (Oc)

Prompt: Parenting

@narutoocshipweek

Disclaimer: I wrote this in 30 minutes on my phone so it's not great but I think it's cute

Words: 877

Raising a child was more difficult than Yua thought it would be. There were tears to wipe away, fears to ease, stories to tell.

It was a never-ending job. A job that she had never imagined herself having when she was younger, but which came with too many rewards to give up. For every tear she had to wipe, there was a tiny hug. Every fear came with an ‘i love you’ once everything was better, not spoken out loud like most kids but whispered against her chest as if it would fly away unheard if her son moved too far back.

“You look like you’re having thoughts,” Tsunade prodded her side, snickering when she turned an ice glare her way. “Come on, Talk to me. What’s on your mind?”

“Other than the fact that I have the worst taste in lovers?” Yua rolled her eyes when Tsunade lifted her glass of sake up as if agreeing with her words. “I’m just… thinking.”

“Thinking is a dangerous game to play,” Leaning in a bit closer, Tsunade began tickling the toddler who was resting peacefully in Yua’s arms. “Isn’t that right, Kakashi? Tell your mom Thinking is dangerous.”

The only response she received was a squeal of laughter, and a poor attempt to squirm himself out of her reach only to find his mother's arms in the way.

“I’m trying to get him to have a nap,” Yua sighed. “If you keep this up he won’t sleep at all.”

“Ah, I don’t think that will be a problem,” retracting her hand, Tsunade watched with a cheerful smile as Kakashi settled back into his mother's hold and closed his eyes. “Kid loves to sleep.”

“You say that, but he just spent the afternoon running around with the hounds,” and what a mess he had made. Yua was going to have to ask the hounds to be a bit more careful. At least until Kakashi was old enough to clean up after himself.

She was rather tired of replanting flowers in the garden or spraying her two-year-old down before he entered the house after an afternoon of playing in the mud.

“Hey,” feeling a finger against her face, Yua glanced Tsunade’s way. There she was greeted with a soft, fond smile. “I’ll help you. You know that.”

“I know,” Tsunade always helped. She had since the day she came to Yua’s home to inform her of Sakumo’s death on a mission. Ever since that day two years ago she had refused to leave Yua’s side, always available to aid her with raising Kakashi or just unwinding once in a while. “I just…”

Parenting wasn’t the job she had imagined for herself when she was young, but she’d been so excited when she’d found out she and Sakumo would-be parents.

She’d planned out an entire future with him. The two of them would teach Kakashi all that they knew, guiding him through the challenges of life step by step.

But Sakumo wasn’t here with her. Not anymore.

He’d only met his son once before becoming little more than a name engraved on the memorial stone in the centre of Konoha’s cemetery.

Everything she had once thought about her future was dead and gone. Her career as a Samurai, her first love.

All she had left was her son and Tsunade.

“You don’t have to explain,” Tsunade assured her, the smile fading into a sad expression. “I know the feeling, but it was you who told me we couldn’t dwell on it. That there was still a future for us.”

A future.

One she couldn’t see quite clear yet. Full of questions and fears she had never thought she would have to face in her life.

“The future,” she whispered, reaching out to steal Tsunade’s cup from her and down the sake while her girlfriend complained in her ear. “I think I like the sound of that.”

“You’d better,” Tsunade huffed. “That was the last of my goodness sake.”

“Oh?” Tilting her head, Yua hugged Kakashi a little closer as his tiny snores filled the air. “Well, I guess I’ll just have to make it up to you once I lay Kakashi down in bed.”

Her offer was met with laughter. Pure, joyful laughter. A sweet sound for her tattered soul.

“You really are something,” Standing up from her seat, Tsunade stepped in front of Yua and leaned down to kiss her cheek while carefully gathering Kakashi into her arms. “I’ll put him down. You just relax for now.”

“Tsunade, parenting?” Yua gasped dramatically. “A miracle.”

“Perhaps,” Tsunade straightened herself up and glanced down at the toddler now sleeping peacefully in her arms. “But he’s so easy to parent.”

Easy to parent.

That was not a sentence that fit with Kakashi. Not the boy who loved to play with all of Yua’s books, or who ran around rolling in the mud with the hounds and was already starting to show a talent for shinobi skills.

There was nothing easy about the worry she felt every time she looked at her son and wondered if his fate would be the same as his father's.

“He’s certainly… something,” she chuckled, watching as short silver strands of hair danced against his forehead. “My little scarecrow.”

happy birthday to our favorite boy!!!

can I request medic kakashi au and tsunade giving him a med kit or teaching him a new technique?

An Important Lesson

Words: 1349

Note: I kind of went a different route, i apologize about that. This was very last minute and I hope you enjoy it 💜💜💜

@kakashiweek

Birthdays were a special occasion. It’s a day to celebrate one’s birth with their favourite people. An opportunity to enjoy cake, parties, and presents.

For Hatake Kakashi, though, it was just another day of mourning. 

There were no presents because anyone who would have given him any was dead.

No party, for how could he have a celebration with gravestones?

No cake. Who would he share it with? 

Kakashi’s birthday was just another day. He'd push himself through one step at a time, hoping just to make it to the end so he could collapse into bed and close his eyes. Forget about the ache in his heart as he spent another day alone.

There were no friends to wish him a happy birthday, Sensei to drag him outside and buy him a cake, or even a father to ruffle his hair and spoil him with treats.

Kakashi was alone, and the only thing he wanted to do was focus on his training. To become the best medical ninja that he could be, so that next time things went wrong he’d be able to do something.

So that he’d never have to bury another friend again.

“That’s enough,” Tsunade-Sama’s voice cut through the air, forcing Kakashi to look up from his work. “It’s time for a break.”

“A break? But I haven't even had a chance to try the new technique you showed me.” He argued.

“You’ve spent the last three hours studying it,” stepping up to his side, she jabbed a finger against the book he was reading. “You can give it a go after lunch.”

“But-“

“No buts,” she interrupted. “Overworking yourself won’t help you learn faster. It will just result in you passing out in your spot and me having to carry you to your bed. Again.”

Seeing a lost cause, Kakashi shut his book with a groan. “It took me three weeks to convince you to teach me something new,” he grumbled. “And now I'm restricted to the amount of time I can spend learning it?”

“If you want to train, we could do some work on your speed and dodging capabilities.” 

He shivered at the thought. 

Tsunade-sama was ruthless when it came to physical training. If he could read books, or practice on his own, Kakashi was able to relax and take his time. The moment training required her to step in and take an active role, though, Kakashi was in danger.

He’d walked away from speed training with more bruises than he could count before. Most of the time they’d spend an hour after training was completed sitting around in awkward silence while she healed every single one of those bruises.

“Can we train on something else instead?” he asked, hoping he didn’t sound too desperate with his request.

“Well, if you want to be a coward I guess,” Kakashi bit his lip and refuses to give into her teasing. He’d happily be called a coward for the next three hours if it meant he didn’t sustain any bruises. That was his birthday gift to himself. “How about I teach you something fun to do?”

“Fun?” He waited for her to tell him that she was joking, but she simply nodded her head. “I want to learn something useful.”

“Fun is useful.”

“How?”

“I- How did Hatake ‘goof off at every opportunity’ Sakumo have a child-like….it was Yua.”

Kakashi’s ears perked up. “Yua?” he’d never heard her name before, but he just knew it was his mother that Tsunade-sama had mentioned. “You knew her?”

Tsunade-sama’s mouth dropped. “He didn’t tell you?” 

All Kakashi could do was shake his head. He didn’t want to bad mouth his father or get him into trouble over something that he couldn’t change, but there was no point in lying about it.

No matter how many times he asked about his mother, his father never had an answer for him. Whatever stories he could have told were drowned out by the overwhelming sorrow that Kakashi felt radiating off of him at the mere mention of her.

“Well, then that’s what I’ll teach you,” she declared. “We’ll spend the afternoon learning about your mother. How does that sound?”

Ever since he became a Genin all Kakashi could think about was training. Honing his skills so he could become the best Shinobi in Konoha. There was nothing that could detour him from focusing on his work.

Until today.

“Do you have stories?” he asked with a little too much excitement. “About her?”

“Kid,” a hand came down into his hair and messed it up the same as his father always would. “I have so many stories that you’ll get bored of me before the end of the day.”

He couldn’t imagine that.

Getting bored of stories he had wanted to listen to for years. Stories he had begged his father to tell him for years, only giving up when he realized that he was never going to get an answer.

He could listen to those stories all day.

All year, if he had to because it meant he got to hear about her.

The mother he never had the chance to meet.

“Let’s go get some Dango while I tell you about the day we met. Jiraiya is still recovering from having his Ego snapped in two and stomped on,” ushering him to his feet, she swooped down and snatched his book off of the ground. “Oh, or I could tell you about the day she plopped a flower crown on Danzo’s head in the middle of a conversation and declared him ‘slightly less miserable looking’”

Just the thought of Danzo-sama being presented with a flower crown had Kakashi trying to hide a snicker behind his hand. Kakashi hadn’t met him too often, but from the few interactions he had with the man, he found he agreed with his mother's words.

If a flower crown wasn’t capable of making the elder look just a little less miserable, then there was nothing in the world that could do the job.

“Oh,” Tsunade-sama plopped his book down on top of his head gently. “And Happy Birthday, brat.”

A smile stretched across his lips, hidden away from the world by his mask, but just slightly visible in the way the corner of his eyes crinkled just a tiny bit. For a second he felt a little less alone in the world.

“Since it’s my birthday-”

His book lifted off of his head for just a second before coming back down a little bit harder. “Don’t push it,” she warned with an amused smirk. “I need at least three stories and five Sake before I teach you anything else.”

A perfect plan was foiled, but it wasn’t the end of the world.

He still had stories to look forward to. Though, there was one thing he had always wondered about above all others. A question burning in the back of his mind demanded an answer.

“Then can I make a request?”

“That depends what it is,” she lifted the book off of his head again and plopped it into his hand. “What would you like to know?”

“Am I like her at all?”

Her smile grew softer and a distant but warm look settled into her eyes. “Kid, you may be the spitting image of your old man, with that blinding white hair and those pointy fangs you call teeth, but deep down,” she pressed a finger against his chest just hard enough that she forced him to take a step back. “You are Yua’s son.”

His heart swelled when he heard those words. Like a comforting hug after a long, difficult day. There was finally an answer to the question he had asked his father over and over again. 

He was finally more than just the Son of Hatake Sakumo, the White fang of Konoha and a failure to his village.

“How?” The word slipped past his lips without thought. 

“Well, that’s a rather long list,” she began walking away from him. “I’ll tell you on the way to the Dango shop.”

[depressedhatakekakashi]

When the three legendary Sannin hear that rheir friend Sakumo gor married, they each have very diffrent idea’s of who he could have married.

Jiraiya imagines a petite civilian who spends most of her time gossiping. That’s his own bias’ and he genuinly thinks ‘anxious Sakumo’ couldn’t handle a shinobi wife

Tsunade thinks it’s a shinobi built like her but with skills in Ninjitsu such as fire or doton. They match well with Sakumo, and she may not be able to face Sakumo in a fight but Tsunade’s sure she’s a skilled shinobi

Orochimaru doesn’t think much of it, but he’s the only one who figures Sakumo’s spouse will have a firm personality and take no shit attitude

None of them are ready for the day Sakumo introduces them to his wife and they’re face to face with a 5’9” beautiful, stubborn, slightly sassy Samurai who has that ‘take no shit attitude’ but also immediately turns into a dork when romance books are mentioned

Tsunade still sometimes thinks she’s dreaming when she see’s Yua.

Asking For Help

Words: 1239

For: @animetrashmuffin who is always so kind and deserves some cute KakaIru (even if Kakashi isn't present) <3 <3 <3

This was it.

The most terrifying day of Umino Iruka’s life.

 There wasn’t a mission out there that Lady Tsunade could assign that would scare him as much as sitting at the dinner table in Hatake Yua’s home with the Hatake Matriarch smiling at him from the other side of the table.

It was a sweet smile. The kind that told Iruka he could let his guard down and relax. Yet, no matter how hard he tried he couldn’t do it. His heart was racing too fast, and his palms were too sweaty. His reason for meeting up with her tonight wasn’t a relaxing hang-out.

 He had something very important to ask her tonight.

“Iruka, relax,” She spoke with the same calmness in her voice that she always had. As if nothing could phase her. “You should know by now that I’m not going to bite.”

 He chuckled awkwardly at the joke. Once upon a time Iruka might have genuinely thought she would snap his head off at the smallest insult, but he had learned over the years that she was just as cool-headed and calculated as her son.

In fact, she made Kakashi look like a hot head at times. Where he might snap in a moment of annoyance, she would simply continue smiling and offer a second chance for the offender to rethink what they were doing.

“I’m just… it’s a lot,” he whispered, curling his fingers into a fist against his knees. “I have a very important question to ask you today and I don’t really know how to start.”

There were a ton of ideas swimming around in his brain, but they wouldn’t stay still long enough for him to come up with a coherent plan. No matter how many calming breaths he took, or how often he reminded himself that he had shared laughs with this woman at Kakashi’s expense, he just couldn’t get rid of the fear bubbling up inside of him.

The fear that she would say no.

That she’d suddenly decide that he wasn’t good enough for Kakashi.

It was irrational. Iruka and Kakashi had been together for three years and during that time Yua had been nothing but kind to him. She’d told him embarrassing stories about his boyfriend that he knew he’d never have heard if he hadn’t met her. She invited him over to dinner all the time, with and without Kakashi.

The two of them got along just as well as he and Kakashi did. Even better than him and Kakashi even, possibly because Yua was one of the few people that Iruka could always trust to be truthful with him. To have his back in an argument when Kakashi was in the wrong, or to call him out and put him in his place if he was the one who had screwed up.

Talking to her had always been so easy before today.

“Just take your time,” settling back into her seat she closed her eyes. Her soft smile growing into something more playful. “You can tell me your plans for asking my son to marry you when you’re ready.”

The matter-of-fact way she spoke caught him off guard. Not once since he had decided to take the next step in his relationship with Kakashi had he mentioned it to her. He’d spent the last few months toiling over whether he was really ready for such a big change in his relationship, and here Yua was acting like it was nothing.

As if he was worrying over nothing.

“How…”

“You’re rather easy to read,” she teased. “Oh, and telling Gai about your plans to find the perfect ring probably wasn’t the best way to keep a secret. You’re lucky he was smart enough to run to me with that exciting news instead of tackling Kakashi and congratulating him prematurely.”

Iruka wasn’t sure how he was supposed to feel about Gai running around telling his secrets, though he was thankful that the man had refrained from running after his eternal rival to gush about everything Iruka had told him. That no doubt took a lot of strength on Gai’s part.

 What he did feel wasn’t anger or disappointment, but relief.

Relief at the knowledge that he didn’t have to figure out how to tell Yua about his intentions to ask her son to marry him. Most importantly there was a sense of ease when she chose to take a teasing route upon opening up the discussion. It meant she wasn’t against the idea.

“Well,” relaxing his hands, he took a deep breath and straightened himself up. “I was hoping that you might be able to help me.”

“Help?” she tilted her head. “What do you need my help with?”

“I want to make this perfect,” he explained. “Something that Kakashi will remember forever with fondness. I’ve had a few ideas but when it comes down to it I don’t think any of them are as memorable as I’d like them to be.”

No matter what he did, how much thought he put into his plans, it all ended the same. Crumpled-up balls of paper littered his bedroom floor while he fought back the urge to call it quits and cry.

No one had told him that proposing to the love of his life would be this hard.

 “How about I make some tea?” Yua stood up from her chair and smiled down at him. “With a nice warm drink, we’ll be able to plot out that perfect proposal together.”

 It all sounded too good to be true. Iruka had come here hoping for help, but he hadn’t imagined he would get it so easily. Yua usually preferred to pull his chain a little. Mess around with his head and make him think about all the reason’s he loved Kakashi.

  Every visit with her was a fresh reminder of all the reasons he adored Kakashi, and he had no doubt it was the same for Kakashi when he stopped by for dinner with his mother.

“Stop acting so surprised,” making her way around the table, Yua extended two fingers and poked him in the side of the head, right above his temple. A firm but light poke that forced him out of his mind and back into the present. “You didn’t think I’d have a problem with it, did you?”

“Well, I-“

“I should have known,” her eyes sparkled with amusement. “Quit doubting yourself, Iruka. If I didn’t want you to marry my son I would have made that clear from day one.”

That he could believe. Kakashi had gotten his bluntness from his mother for sure. With the two of them in his life Iruka was certain he would never have to worry about walking out the front door of his house looking like an idiot.

“Well, how about I help you?” he suggested. “I could learn how to make tea.”

“On one condition.”

“Anything.”

“Don’t touch my stove,” she smiled innocently. “I would like to avoid burning down my kitchen this evening.”

Iruka wanted to argue, but as with most things that Yua said it was true.

Cooking simply was not something he should be trusted with.

Thankfully, if everything went well, he was going to marry a man who could cook five-star meals for him, so he’d never have to worry about burning down his own house again.

Yua lives au

The funniest part of Yua’s life is Tsunade knows how good she is in a fight. She has seen her face off against Sakumo, Jiraiya and Orochimaru in trainjng

There’s no doubt Yua can kick ass

What Tsunade does not know is the reputation Yua has. How she made a name for herself a name in the land of iron

So when someone mentions it during a Gokage meeting and Yua just responds like it’s no big deal, Tsunade has a few words

A lot of works actually

Mostly screaming
