Summary
Maybe it’s because Naruto doesn’t know when to quit, because he’s always there in the periphery, because he’s loud and obnoxious and pushy. Maybe it’s because Naruto is the only one who’s been able to land a hit on him in a spar for months now. Maybe it’s because Naruto is the only one who’s not afraid to make him bleed.
Regardless, Naruto is Sasuke’s rival. And as such, Sasuke watches him.
And watches.
And watches.---
In which Sasuke finds many aspects of Naruto's life objectionable, and as a result more or less abducts--I mean, adopts him.

Summary
Haku has only had siblings for a few short months, ever since Kakashi Battle Bonded Zabuza-shishou and brought them to Konoha, made them into a clan. But he adores Naruto and Sakura—and even Sasuke, though the boy is prickly and doesn’t call Haku nii-san the way the other two do—and he is trying. He tries to protect them when he can, tries to be there for them, support them the way he thinks family is supposed to.
He doesn't have much experience being a good older brother, but as he stands in the doorway of the shitty hotel room with Naruto shaking behind him while he stares down Uchiha Itachi, Haku knows this:
He might not have been born into the position, but it has only taken him three months to figure out how to be a better brother than Uchiha Itachi will ever be.
---
In the wake of everything that happened in Wave, Haku is bewildered and awed to find that he has a home in the Hatake clan, with Zabuza-shishou and Kakashi firmly seeing him as one of theirs. And, well, Haku has always been good at devotion. He takes to his new role as the eldest sibling of their mismatched family like a duck to water.
That doesn't mean he has to like his family's extended relations.

Summary
“Be safe. Look after each other. Try not to blow up the village.”
The three of them are conspicuously quiet. Their team has quite the penchant for destruction, though that’s mostly Naruto’s doing, and none of them are going to make any promises. Sasuke won’t be surprised if they burn down at least one building over the course of the chuunin exams, and he doesn’t think Kakashi would be either.
“Fuck ‘em up,” Zabuza says, grinning.
Haku offers his own, softer smile. “Good luck.”
---
Or: a look at the effects Zabuza's & Haku's presence has on Team 7 as they go into the Chuunin Exams.
(Sequel to Saltwater Oaths--for context, read that first!)

Summary
If Kakashi hadn’t seen Naruto living in squalor and Sasuke’s personal trauma shrine and whatever civilian fuckery was happening at Sakura’s house, he’d have at least tried to fail them even if logic told him the Elder Council would never let it fly. Screw the Hokage for that.
* * * * * * * * * *
When the Sandaime showed him Naruto’s apartment, he didn’t think that was going to be the tip of the iceberg that was the shitshow of his soon-to-be team. But as it turned out, Naruto wasn't the only one with a less-than-optimal home life. And as it turned out, Kakashi was apparently the only person in Konoha who cared.
