Summary
“What the fuck.” Usually he would restrain his reaction a bit, but he’s far too preoccupied staring at his dead sensei-turned-father-figure’s orphan son, all of six years old and sitting in the middle of his living room, grinning full at a bunch of stray dogs Kakashi’d semi-adopted.
Naruto looks up at him, apparently finally clueing in to the fact that he is no longer alone in the apartment. For a moment, the grin lingers, and he looks so much like Minato that it hurts. Then, the grin vanishes, and Naruto’s face contorts in shock and terror.
The grin hurt, but this expression feels like a punch directly to Kakashi’s gut, and he resists the urge to keel over at the force of it. Having Minato-sensei’s kid—the kid he would be a brother to were it not for the Kyuubi—look at him like he expects an attack chills Kakashi to the bones.

Six-year-old Naruto has been coming into this one apartment via the doggy door for months. He thinks it's a place specifically for the stray dogs that are always there. Kakashi, the owner of the apartment, thinks otherwise. It's a surprisingly good time.

Summary
In one world, Muichiro Tokito falls to the floors of Infinity Castle, bloodied but victorious.
In another, he awakens on the floor of a forest filled with trees taller than any he's ever seen.
However bad of a day Muichiro is about to have, Konoha is about to have a whole lot worse.Or, Muichuro wakes up in Naruto after the final battle, almost immediately beats Danzo to death in front of Shisui, proceeds to get gaslit into helping the Uchiha coup, and maybe kind of accidentally derails all of Naruto canon in spectacularly explosive fashion.

Summary
The drama starts, as is often the case, in ANBU.
“No—it’s just—” it’s unusual to see an ANBU hesitate, much less stumble over their words. Stag visibly steels themself. “I’m not sure we should address Hokage-sama as male. Uzumaki-sama called Hokage-sama her wife.”
Beaver pauses. “Oh.”
“But then,” Ox says eventually, “what do we call Hokage-sama?”
// AKA Team Minato is alive and together, Konoha is thriving, and no one wants to accidentally misgender their beloved military dictator that everyone loves.
