Summary
Digging into another shinobi's past was a faux pas in better situations and actively dangerous in his, but Uchiha Itachi had never seen a bad idea he couldn't improve into an abysmal one. As Hoshigaki Kisame could attest.
(Kisame would also attest: how lucky for the kid that he's interesting.)Of course, if you asked Itachi about it, he'd insist that what he was doing was perfectly reasonable. Intelligent, even. Unfortunately the only person who tended to ask Itachi these things was Kisame. And in this case it was very much imperative that Kisame have no reason to ask — because it was his past Itachi was digging into. According to Konoha's files, Hoshigaki Kisame was a team killer who'd died years ago.
So... who exactly was Itachi working beside?(AKA the “what do you mean you were married back home?” AU.)

Summary
“You’ve found others like this.” Kisame regarded him sceptically. He didn't add and you survived? though the question was implied.
“Yeah.” The boy’s jaw worked a moment, and he passed a pink tongue over thin lips. “Folk with a map for the wrong province or the wrong island in the middle o’ nowhere, mostly frozen. ‘S always a hassle to get the bodies back to the village. Glad y’ won’t be one of ‘em.” He set the meat on a wooden platter and took a knife from his hip to cut it open. “You feelin’ hale, shinobi-san?”--
Kisame finds himself in a ghost story, with precious little company besides a local hunter and the wide empty woods of North Water Country. And, of course, the Lady.

Summary
A few streets away from the temple (derelict since the regime change), cramped between buildings old enough to predate his grandfather, there was a shopfront with Apothecary writ on the sign in faded paint. The pharmacist in residence: a nominal shinobi, inactive duty, and a local curiosity for the simple fact of having survived so long. Kisame might have gone on ignoring that curiosity, if personal circumstance hadn’t shifted enough to make poison a necessity.

Summary
Trying to figure out what Ascelin was doing at any given time was more work than his teammates were really equipped for. So mostly they just wait, and let him tell them when he’s ready.
Unfortunately that sometimes means things like sitting in a restaurant and having him blurt out wildly inappropriate questions over lunch.Or, a Choir Scholar, a Church Prospector, and a Hunter walk into a bar... and get into an argument about sex. The argument is resolved in a brothel, because of course it is.
A sidestory from before Choral starts, starring Vasilissa, Drogomir and Ascelin when the city isn't in an unusual level of crisis.Series

Summary
Yharnam was never a friendly place, but it seemed to get worse every year, even for the people living in it. Another outbreak of the blood plague had the Healing Church occupied, and anyone who could not hunt kept their head down. You could maybe venture out, in the daylight - but not after dark, and not on the days of the hunt.
In the middle of all of this is Anastas, sixteen, sickly, and not especially talented. His older sister and only family, a Hunter for the church, has gone missing.
… So against all advice Anastas is talking to strange hunters and considering going out of doors, of course. If his sister wanted him safe, she should have been around to keep him so.
(Updates when life allows, at this point :’D)
