    Summary

    A few years after the war, Naruto finds himself in a bind: his friends are all pairing off, and this somehow means he should have someone special too. Sakura seems to think she has the perfect person in mind, and no matter what Naruto says, he can’t convince her he isn’t interested.

    At least there’s one person who isn’t weirdly invested in his nonexistent love life—Kakashi-sensei, for all that Naruto is convinced he’s a closet romantic because of his Icha Icha obsession, couldn’t care less who anyone dates. He probably finds the idea of his goofball student being romantically involved with anyone in the first place completely laughable.

    His sensei is totally uninterested in the idea of Naruto and romance, and Naruto is confident he can count on that.

    Summary

    Harry isn’t especially enthusiastic about the idea of babysitting Theo Nott, even if he’s the first British diplomat to the Fair Folk in five hundred years and needs to be protected from people who don’t want to see his mission succeed. But his boss isn’t giving him a choice about it. And Theo’s glittering presence makes Harry unwillingly fascinated—and maybe something more.

    Summary

    There was an aura of mystic whisperings around Zhao Qinglin. That surely the weight of future visions untethered him from this earthly coil as it did many Seers. What a crushing responsibility it must be, to subtly shift fate this way and that. How tragic, how sad- this is all reasonable for why Zhao Qinglin ignored the urgent request for the third time in a row! Or perhaps some tragedy was prevented by his non answer...

    That was how simpletons like his fellow Peak Lords rationalized it.

    Shen Qingqiu thought that perhaps Zhao Qinglin was just a lay about. Kan Zhanbu was the tiniest of the twelve Peaks. The last that Shen Qingqiu had heard, the Peak only boasted one Elder, two Masters, and five Disciples- none of this counting Zhao Qinglin himself. Unless he spent all day gazing into the sun, he had more than enough time to pick up a brush and do his job.

    The flap of a butterflies wings can cause storms halfway across the world. How might the winds of destiny shift if a heart is touched?

    Summary

    The Hidden Leaf Village in Naruto's time seems to have forgotten just why the village was founded and have lost their way. Through a mishap with a hiraishin seal, Tobirama finds himself during Naruto's time and he is having none of this nonsense. His brother may be gone, but he won't stand to have Hashirama's dream trampled so.

    And if he has to cause a civil war or burn the village down to the ground? Well that depends on how much resistance he meets.

    All Tobirama does know for certain is that no child will suffer underneath the protection of Konoha and if he has to take them in and care for them himself, then he will.

    **here's to hoping updating existing chapters doesn't send out update alerts/emails. I'm doing some sporadic editing of this fic. Just some grammar, punctuation, and small facts. Sorry if I confuse anyone.**

    Summary

    “Hey,” Shane said quickly, breathless. “It’s me.”

    “...Hello, Hollander.” Rozanov’s voice was deep and solemn.

    “Are you okay?”

    A short laugh echoed down the phone. “What do you think?”

    Shane cringed at himself. “Right, sorry. Stupid question.”

    “Is fine.” Rozanov sighed. “I am okay, I suppose… I do not know.”

    “I’m… I’m sorry.”

    “Why? You are not the one who sold story.”

    ~~

    The coach's son from Ilya's youth sells his story, and Ilya is left to pick up the pieces. Hollander helps more than he could have ever expected.
