“Oi, Taichou, what are you staring at?” The question came between giggles, the conversation quite animated among the group. 

A celebration that Sakura had reluctantly agreed to only after Ino forced her to, a commemoration of Sakura’s promotion to hospital director. The word spread quickly among their friends and, by nightfall, those who were free and not on mission had gathered for a drink and a toast. Even Sakura’s usually tense shoulders began to relax -  mostly once the topic of conversation started moving away from herself after the initial commendations. 

Friendly teasing and jokes carried out through the night, the pleasant sound of laughter drowning out Sakura’s worries and allowing her brain to shut down for a moment and enjoy herself. She felt YOUNG in that moment and realized then that, for some time now, she had carried an age on her shoulders that went far beyond her years. Maybe just for tonight she could allow herself to enjoy life rather than regret death. 

Among the ruckus, Captain Yamato’s answer was unheard by anyone other than Sakura herself. Her cheeks were warm with glee and her eyes were glittering, and despite her expression softening when she heard his words, the happiness of the night was not dampened. Even though Sakura got a funny feeling in her chest when she mulled over that sentence, which made her realize she couldn’t remember the last time she laughed wholeheartedly. Even knowing that, by morning, she might go back to feeling that unwarranted age on her shoulders multiplied by her new responsibilities and what they entailed. Even if she didn’t think anyone else had noticed how long it had been since Sakura laughed. 

“Ah, sorry.” It seemed like something she should apologize for, but Sakura wasn’t entirely sure why. She wasn’t sure at all how to respond to that statement, if she was honest, what with all the happiness and fondness and melancholy settling in all at once, keeping that funny feeling tied up in her chest. “Will you stop if I promise to try to do it more?”

She was rather fond of him, even more in this moment but, at the end of the day...

Yamato had a really spooky stare.

@tenzx asked: ❛   There is a home for every departed thing.  ❜  

"Not for people like us Leaf boy."

Kiri wasn't as kind to the people it threw out onto the battlefield. Kiri wasn't kind to people in general if she had to be honest. DoYoung fumbled with her gloves as she stood back up, well this was going to be a problem. Killing a target that was meant to be brought in alive showed how sloppy she's gotten, being taken off guard wasn't like her. Her hands moved up under her mask, rubbing away at her face as she finally turned to the jonin.

"Also my displacement, was very much on purpose. I try to stay away as long as possible during my missions."

Her hand waved back at the body behind herself.

"So do you always pop up out of nowhere? You seem the type."

[tennome]

"So it was all for nothing?''

"No, because I'll cherish what we shared, it may have been fleeting but memorable. I can't control how you feel but I hope you'll be able to look back on it fondly someday," the Hyuuga said in reply. It was an inevitable clash she would have with him. The end of a bond. Shinju enjoyed his company even when it was shared in silence. No words needed to be exchanged between them, their shared company was enough. It saddened her to let him go and commit fully to her clan. No distractions from the outside. A distraction - is that what he was? No. Yes… Behind her controlled mask of emotion raged a storm of conflict. 

"Tomorrow I'll officially take my place within my clan and retire from active duty. They need my full commitment without any distractions." She gave him a bow, "I'm most grateful for everything. I hope only the best for you. I mean it," the last part was said while she returned to her normal posture. A self-assured woman with a classic elegance that was commonly displayed by someone of her standing.

       some habits were hard to break.   Such as the habit of assessing wounds when it wasn’t her place to. Momoko is way too invested in the world around her to take care of herself properly ( as much as she’d like to admit she was fine on her own ;; she had her own business , how much more did her family want for proof!?   )   Her eyes however this time , are focused on a wrapped bandage that a stranger sports.  The concern is not on if she’d be able to hold her balance as she raises from the bench , trudging toward them with her basket hanging around her own wrapped hand.  

          “     I have some aloe Vera for you if you’d like -- “  she realizes how crazy she must look!  Offering something of a treatment to a stranger , because not everyone responded well --   “  I-If that’s a cut or a burn I mean!    S-Sorry , just trying to help !  “

@tenzx​ asked: ❛ It's strange. I felt less lonely when i didn't know you.  ❜ // for Kakashi 8)

"You need to get out more, Tenzo...”

There’s little apology in the words returned, only the fleck of amusement that marks his words to be more playful than spiteful. Kakashi is many things, but sociable is not among them, his interactions often those forced upon him by his peers who will not allow him the cold embrace of isolation. Those who have been close to him before now lay in the ground, their graves his only confidants now. He’s learnt his lesson in allowing them close, and whispers keep most from attempting further. friend killer, don’t touch him.

“Try Gai if you want a spar, Genma or Kurenai if you want a drink, Anko if you want mischief or Asuma if you want to talk.” It’s cold, perhaps, to not acknowledge his fault in this instead offer practical solutions to loneliness, to lean into his natural inclination to distance himself now that Tenzo has a place in the village, but he won’t. He can’t.

multi-muse prompt – always accepting!

hell no! and buckle up cuz i’m super ready to throw my little gremlins at you! açlfksdçkgja

Tsunade + Tenzo

We’ve glossed over this before but I don’t think I’ve made myself clear about how much I love the idea of Tsunade raising a bunch of kids with absolutely no capacitation to do so. Nothing, zero, nada. She’s not ready and she never will be. lmao Of course she will try to do right by them, and she’s never gonna starve them or anything that terrible, but she will let her addictions get in the way of raising them. Plus she’s got this ‘tough love’ rooted deep into her bones and she’s not letting it go. She loved Dan and Nawaki way too much and she really thought they were fools and that, besides the fact that she couldn’t have saved them, is what ultimately killed them. And she’s not having it again, no sir. Either little Kinoe toughens up under her thumb or her name is not Tsunade.

Gaara + Tenzo

Gaara pestering Yamato about cacti? Yes, absolutely. He wants to know if Leaf-sensei is the real deal, if he really knows his greens and whatnot. And Yamato can’t say no because he’s the goddamn Kazekage. Yes, Gaara would 100% abuse his power just to watch Yamato grow a little cactus out of nothing. Either use your mokuton for something meaningful or get out!! 

Ibiki + Tenzo

Super awkward duo, I’d understand completely if Tenzo just flat out hated Ibiki with all his might. He’s the worst. He knows all there is to know about so many people in the village, he’s probably got dirt on Tenzo as well and he’d rub it in his nose just to get more - or just for fun bc he’s that kind of guy.

Kimimaro + Tenzo

Imagine Kimimaro was arrested and now we’ve got this super freaky, traumatized child that’s been brainwashed and experimented on by Orochimaru. Who would they call? Tsunade pulls baby Kinoe/Yamato out of her pocket and yells ‘Deal with this’, and now he’s stuck with a physically and mentally ill teen who wants to Die 24/7. He’s your problem now, Tenzo.

Itachi + Tenzo

Okay but you know how we talked about Tenzo being jealous of Kakashi/Itachi and how that sucks for him? Now imagine Itachi being completely oblivious - which he would be, 100% - and he’s fanboying Tenzo super Hard bc the guy’s got MOKUTON!!! That’s a legendary and amazing kekkei genkai and it’s so cool, and Tenzo is SO GOOD at it and Itachi can’t BELIEVE he gets a senpai that amazing and he’s glued to Tenzo’s side at all times and asking a million questions, all the while trying to keep it cool but just making things plain awkward bc now he seems dismissive and unimpressed.  ‘You have mokuton??!?!?! Ah- yeah, the same thing that killed the Shodai, right? Hm.’ And now Tenzo is about to murder a child. aç~lkçalgjasdçl

@tenzx​ asked ❝ The past’s past. I learned that young. If it can’t bring you gold or giggles, what’s the point in dwelling on it? ❞ 

Kakashi pauses, chopsticks hovering in the air as if he were about to eat the ramen dangling from them. “Hm?” he asks, raising an eyebrow. Gold or giggles... interesting... “What do you mean? I don’t dwell on the past.” Perfectly delivered lie from one Kakashi Hatake.

[narasnooze]

@tenzx asked:

“I believe in annoyed at first sight.”

   The Nara stacked together a thick bundle of papers and rolled them up, nodding as he did so before lifting his now mildly amused gaze to the other man for a few seconds, then returned back to his work. “Can’t say I disagree with that... Who’s the unlucky one?”

   “...Is it me? What’d I do?”

[amehanaa]

@tenzx started tracking you 

“ Do you happen to have the time of day, by chance? “

[sunagakurenosato]

“Besides, where else are you going to go?” // @ one of ur ocs pls

@tenzx

“Wherever you are going,” the woman said. After a beat, she continued with a more human, “I suppose.” A shrug, as Kamala took another sip of her tea--- as if she could still consume things the way she used to.

The sands shift constantly in the desert. As does our lives shift constantly--- from birth, to living, to death, and our duties beyond it.

“I could help you cross the desert, if you’d like,” that is her role. That is what gives her shape and form. A splash of red in a sea of gold. A voice when her mortal one has been silenced years ago. “I know these lands very well.”

I have crossed these lands three times.

Once across the Western Waste, fleeing a kingdom that did not believe in love. The second towards Sunagakure, carrying the fruits of my love--- one in my arms, and the other in my womb. The last was a march to my death.

“You do not look like you’re from here, stranger.”

“I’m taking first watch.” She reminds him. 

The night is calm and quiet; some embers still glow in the firepit but the flames had died down a while ago. Sakura had busied herself watching as the last of the smoke ascended towards the starry sky in a thin, wispy lick. Things had been silent for a while now, aside from Naruto’s snoring somewhere behind her. Sai is a creepily quiet sleeper, and Yamato---

“Why are you awake, Taichou?”

[flakclad]

Ok but can we get page 2 as well 8)

Send “Dear Diary” for a random excerpt from my muses diary.

@tenzx

This already feels dumb.

I should just throw this away. I refuse to start with dear diary I’m not a thirteen year old girl. I’m a thirty something year old man. But you know what the fact that I didn’t just write thirty three makes me a child in itself. A childish thirty three year old man. Gods this is dumb.

Send “📂“ for a random yet completely useless headcanon I have┊not accepting.

Izumi can be incredibly oblivious when it comes to people flirting with her. She can easily recognize the most obvious things such as pick-up lines of course, but aside from that, unless the other person was standing in front of her with a sign around their neck that said: ‘I am currently trying to flirt with you’, most of the times she would come to the conclusion that they’re simply trying to be nice to her and nothing more. Little hints just don’t work well with her. One needs to be very direct and make their intentions clear, otherwise it’s difficult that Izumi would be able to figure out they’re trying to make a move on her.

❛ You seem especially broody today. ❜ @Tsunade (sorry for the spam 🙊)

Oh--fuck. Was it showing? The grief that came around every year, this time of year? Tsunade always tried to keep it from affecting her, and, failing that, tried to keep people from knowing it affected her. Her head lifted, and she raised an eyebrow, forced a smile. “Broody? Me?” A quick shake of her head. “It’s nothing. Just--copious amounts of paperwork, and I’m the only one who can do them. Why did I become hokage again?”  // @tenzx​

[yuukoro]

@tenzx liked for a starter!

Yuukoro sits, the abundance of scrolls spread before her in a sad attempt in deciphering the code. She wonders who exactly wrote these and whether or not they were smart enough to write the code in code, or something like that. 

Over and over again, she scans the scrolls for clues as to what the messages truly are. “Damnit — — !!” She exclaims, unaware that she is being watched.

Yuukoro never before demonstrated such carelessness when on a mission, but oh — how frustrating this was!
