    Summary

    After everything he'd worked for crumbled around him, Sunday makes a choice to board a train of dignified traveling warriors, expecting to be treated politely at best and coldly at worst.

    Summary

    “There’s no time. There’s never any time. He wishes they had more time. To save everyone. To say what was left unsaid. To change their cruel fate.”

    Now stuck in the past, Cal can change everything. They don’t have to be struck down by a Sith Lord on their own crashed ship. Jaro Tapal can survive Order 66. Trilla can be saved. Prauf doesn’t have to die.

    The Force has given him a gift. No way is Cal wasting it. But with a new, startling connection tethering him to his killer, Cal realises what he wants to achieve may not be so easy…

    Summary

    It wasn’t supposed to happen like this. He wasn’t supposed to abandon her, not after everything – they weren’t supposed to abandon her.

    Uchiha Itsuki has always had a hard time letting go. Abandoned by a brother who would rather avenge the dead than stay with the living, and left with the scraps of a Team Seven that had split seemingly to follow the winds, Itsuki demands that the one adult in her life take some accountability instead of leaving her too. Antics, bad times, and top secret ANBU operations ensue.

    Or: a series of vignettes following Sasuke's fictional sister. Shoutout to Kakashi for being the guy of all time.

    Summary

    “You’re not my father.”

    “I know that. Do you know that?”

    Sakura’s laugh was cruel at the edges, “My father would have wept if he knew what I had done for this country.”

    She tilted her head over her shoulder to look at him, a rueful grimace painted across her face. Genma missed her smile. “So, yes. I know you’re not my father.”

    ***

    Sweet little clanless Haruno Sakura, with her exotic pink hair and alluring jade eyes.

    What do you think the Hokage saw in her? A little girl graduating, ready for D-ranks? Or a tool to be used for the betterment of Konoha? A child no one would notice the absence of.

    This is the version of Sakura that got pulled into the dark too soon because she was just Haruno Sakura, from a no-name civilian merchant clan, with no connections other than the ones she burned away for the affections of a boy who would never love her. A tool to be used.

    For Konoha.

    Summary

    He can see ghosts, which means he still has family. Still has Shisui, and all the aunts and uncles and cousins and distant relatives he didn’t even know before. Still has mother, her kind smile and her knowledge. Still has father, as well, although Fugaku stays distant most days, wallowing in regrets and things that make the air around him terribly cold.
    Sasuke is glad, selfishly, for that small mercy.
    He could have lived without the ghost drama, though.

    ...

    Or: the one where Sasuke can see ghosts, and things aren't as bad as they could be.
