    Summary

    “Kakashi,” he sticks out his hands to take the cake from the other man’s arms by way of introduction. “Sasuke’s foster figure, to use this month’s approved phrasing. For what it’s worth, we’re working on the whole lashing-out-when-uncomfortable thing.”

    He’s met with a smile that’s…a little dazzling, if he’s honest. Woah. Okay. “Iruka,” the man says, letting Kakashi take the cake. Their fingers brush. Iruka’s hands are warm.

    Summary

    “Iruka fell asleep in my bed,” Naruto complains. “But I wasn’t tired.”

    “Oh?” Kakashi asks. This wouldn’t be the first time that Iruka has gone in for a bedtime story and come stumbling out an hour or two later, rubbing sleep from his eyes. Kakashi doesn’t know how he manages it; Naruto is not a peaceful sleeper by any stretch of the imagination.

    “The poor guy was really tuckered out,” Naruto says, a perfect imitation of Iruka, and Kakashi doesn’t bother hiding his smile. He’d probably mind Naruto having a favourite parent more if Iruka wasn’t his favourite, too.

    (or: Iruka's longer-than-usual work hours are making him exhausted and cranky, so Naruto and Kakashi assign themselves the important mission of getting him to take some time off. Predictably, it goes a little sideways.)

    Summary

    “Naruto’s a strong kid,” Kakashi says, who has sauntered up to them in the meantime. “He’ll be fine.”

    Iruka smiles sadly. “I hope so. Thank you for helping us." He says and bows as deeply as he can manage with Naruto clinging to him – which isn’t very deep. “If you hadn’t been there…” He pauses, the imagery of what could have happened too violent in his mind. and he shakes his head to get rid of it.

    “Please,” he says. “Can I do anything to repay you?”

    “Maa, sensei,” Kakashi says, sticking his hands in his pockets. “I didn’t do it to get anything in return.”

    “I know that, Jounin-san, but I want to,” Iruka says, and blurts the first thing that pops up in his mind, “how about dinner?”

    .
    .

    A fight late at night sparks an unlikely friendship between two unlikely people. Naruto is just along for the ride.

    (Featuring; mommies, late-night conversations, the things they do not say, guilt, hugs, and the general weirdness of a four year old)

    Summary

    I've seen a lot of fics where Naruto and Sasuke cheat on their wives. This is fine, it's just not something I can buy into.

    Here is my version of their respective divorces. It is messy. It is sad, as most divorces are. Nobody is the bad guy here. Everyone loses this battle; but, in the end, everyone wins the war.

    "Naruto’s tears began to fall again, wetting the bandages on his hand and darkening the hue of the cheap, creamy material.

    'And, Naruto,' Sasuke’s cool demeanor slipped, his voice cracking on the tail-end of Naruto’s name. 'When I leave you again, I will love you.'”
