naruto crack au where kakashi manages to successfully drill the "never abandon your comrades" thing into team seven's heads

so when sasuke deserts naruto and sakura immediately desert with him. like he gets to the village gates and they're just waiting for him bags packed like "what took u so long we doing this or what"

he tries to get them to go back bc of course he does. "no you losers this is about me i'm going to kill my brother. also i'll have to kill my best friend for the super sharingan and you two are like the only people i talk to". but they do not listen. teamwork sasuke we will defeat your brother (OUR brother #communism) with the power of teamwork. just like kakashi-sensei said

suddenly orochimaru has to deal with three horrible little goblins with an even more codependent relationship than his old team

frog documentation. frogcumentation

I think I mentioned a while back I'd post nibling frog momence after the gift's done given. which happened on the 2nd this month I just forgot lmao. anyways we can do it now. I used the boigameista pattern scaled up to four pieces of A4 print paper and decided to double deck it to a two layer thing, not unlike a pillow, for ease of washin. because it was gonna be gifted to a one year old child

took a long time and made a number of mistakes bc hand sewing makes me worse as a person but this guy was done in time for the birthday occasion and that's what matters. chose non-fuzzy fabrics for it because we live in a dense city in the tropics and from personal experience if I hug something made of fur I would explode. the original plan included felt patterns on its back for bonus textures for baby but that wouldn't stretch well along with the rest of the thing so had to hold that back. eventually we got this

zipper across its ass, the coat type of zipper bc I miscalculated when ordering. but it did have a shape and that's all that matters to me. will be a fun game for the baby to grow up and be severely misinformed about what a frog looks like

happy extremely late birthday to this thing also

Somewhere a Clock is Ticking | Chapter 12

FIC SYNOPSIS: This is not the way Maggie thought her life would go after the Blip. This was not the life she was meant to be living. The man in front of her, who had the same face as Bucky, was not her husband — he was his killer.

WRITTEN BY: @if-you-onlyknew & @katiekinswrites

PAIRING: Bucky Barnes/OFC

RATING: M (Mature) & E (Explicit)

The final installment of the Bucky Barnes/Maggie Hastings "What If...?" AU Series: Somewhere a Clock is Ticking

chapter preview…

Why had they been so careless? Why did she allow herself to be so careless! They had a child! Chris was waiting for them to come home! 

He was waiting for Maggie and his father to come home – and to Chris, the Bucky standing next to her was not his father. He wanted his dad, the man who raised him – the man who had raised him alone for five years before the Blip. Maggie loved every version of Bucky…but would Chris? Would he be able to forgive her for falling in love with the Bucky standing next to her? If she came back to the future pregnant with his child, what would Chris think of her? 

To Maggie, every version of Bucky was the same. She belonged to them all because James Buchanan Barnes was her soulmate – the love of her life. But only one version had been a father to Chris and her son was too young to understand why his mother felt this way. 

Fuck.

HI FRIENDS I'M STILL HERE!

I've had a chaotic few weeks!

Colette had a stroke and we thought we'd never see her again. Turns out, she has Cushings Disease. Over the past few weeks with the vet visits, tests, treatments, etc. we've spent over $4000. She hopefully just has one more test to do and yes it's another $300 but I hope this is the last one! Our old vet that's been helping us through this is like 30 minutes away and it's been rough getting her there during the work week. If the dose is right, we're good for 6 months! I'm still mad at the emergency vet guy we had who basically told us it was going to be the end and we literally almost put her down for *nothing*. She's doing a lot better and wants to chase squirrels and play fetch. Like that guy had horrible bedside manner and I'm still mad.

Our new vet is down the road, and we take our new puppy Selena there. I'm not a huge fan and I wish our old vet was down the road. The first time we took her there (and basically the first vet she'd ever really been to), she puppy nipped at the vet tech. I don't condone biting in any way, but instead of letting us try and correct the behavior, she was muzzled and is now labeled as an aggressive dog and they want us to put her on sleeping meds every time she comes in so she's less anxious. Ya'll I'm mad. She got spayed the other day and the vet tech was too scared to take her leash off even though she was super doped up after a major surgery! Maybe don't work with animals? There's going to be some traumatized animals that come in, and this is just puppy mouthing behavior (again no excuse, but also very common!).

We boarded her there for our wedding (oh btw we got married! Pictures to come!), and she had so many behavioral issues coming out of that. Our first week of being married has been a bit strained due to these dogs and all their issues. Hopefully we can find some balance soon with their sicknesses and behaviors. We'd love to honeymoon sometime but for now even a mini-moon seems impossible.

But we've been married a whole week! What a beautiful wedding we had! We had it at a state park, had all our food from local businesses, and we didn't use any plastic. Very eco-friendly!

My friend made me a dress inspired by all the folklore dresses from the eras tour put together. I'll really have to post pics on their own. I just wanted to give a little life update for now. When the photographer pictures come out, I'll def be sharing!

Anyway, I'm listening to midnights today. I hope you are too.

Chapter 14

FIC SYNOPSIS: Maggie Hastings meets her dream man after a flight into New York City— Bucky Barnes, a pilot who seems to be everything she’s looking for.

After a near-tryst with her dream pilot, Maggie runs, only to find out he later meets her best friend and they’re now crazy about each other. Among their group of best friends, between Chicago and New York, and four weddings and a funeral, Maggie and Bucky struggle to keep their fiery chemistry a secret so they don’t hurt the ones they love.

WRITTEN BY: @if-you-onlyknew & @scherbatskybish

Pairing: Bucky Barnes/OFC

Rating: M (Mature) & E (Explicit)

READ FROM THE BEGINNING

chapter preview…

"This is your Captain speaking.”

Maggie’s head snapped up from the scientific journal she was reading as the plane settled at 30,000 feet and a very familiar voice spoke over the intercom. 

“Bucky?” She found herself whispering his name, in a state of shock. Had Maggie just hallucinated hearing him? 

“We’re expecting a smooth flight into the Bahamas in about two hours. The temperature there is a balmy sixty seven degrees Fahrenheit so I hope you’ve all packed your swim gear.”

There were chuckles throughout the plane and a few that were very confused.

Maggie shook her head in amusement, her cheeks flushing as her stomach erupted with butterflies. Bucky was her pilot — for real this time. He had gotten his pilot's license! 

“Oh, we’re not going to the Bahamas, unfortunately. Scratch that. We’re on our way to New York and will be there in forty five minutes,” the smooth voice said with some humor and joviality in his voice by the sound of it. “You can still expect a smooth flight with very little to no turbulence. And if anyone is in need of a very talented doctor on this flight, we’re lucky to have Doctor Hastings in seat 4A. Enjoy the flight.”

Maggie blinked, her face going red. He knew she was on his flight.

The intercom clicked off and the fasten seatbelt sign turned off. 

Several people turned in their seats to look at Maggie. One man spoke up right away and began to pull his shoe off. “I got this problem with my foot,” he started to say. 

“Do not take your shoe off, Carlos,” the woman next to him berated him. “I told you to take care of that bunion years ago.” Carlos pushed his foot back into the shoe with a grumpy look on his face and began quietly bickering with his companion.

Maggie was grinning, despite knowing she’d have people coming up to her throughout the duration of the flight looking for free medical advice, but she didn’t care. Bucky was her pilot. He had followed through with his dreams and Maggie could not be more proud.

The beverage service began and when the flight attendant stopped at Maggie’s row, a glass of tequila sour was offered to her and Maggie knew exactly who it came from . “From the Captain,” the flight attendant confirmed with a faint trace of a smile. 

There was no first class section on this plane since it was such a short flight from Philadelphia into JFK, so the drink would have cost money normally. 

Maggie grinned, taking the drink. “Please tell him thank you,” she told the flight attendant, who then gave Maggie a small, folded up piece of paper. 

Her face flushed as she opened the note.

Drinks? 

— Bucky
