Summary
“Father? Why do I take medicine, and Kankuro and Temari don’t?”
“Kankuro and Temari don’t have demons inside of them. Those pills keep Shukaku at bay.”
“Why do they make me feel so funny? My heart feels… fast.”“There is no medicine you can take that will get rid of me,” Shukaku snarled.
[based off the headcanon that the Sand gave Gaara stimulants to constantly keep him awake, his declining mental state, and how hard Baki fought to fix him.] Gaara & siblings-centric with some Team Guy content. The siblings go on a joint mission with Team Guy. Lee is a very good friend. Gaara learns to meet the rest of his team along the way.

Summary
“Your brother’s right upstairs, ya know,” Kiba breathes as Kankuro hovers over him. He clearly doesn’t mind all too much, with the way he’s grinning, the kind that shows his teeth.
“Then you’ll just have to keep it down,” Kankuro quips with a kiss to the corner of Kiba’s mouth. He pulls back up with a playful cock of his head, “Unless you think you won’t be able to.”
[or, what happened when Kiba and Kankuro finally had a moment to themselves at the Kazekage manor.]
[Set in the Always Cool Enough For A Drink universe.]Series

Summary
“I was saying,” Lee wipes one free palm on his pants, “all my friends are together. And I have been wondering for a very long time…”
“About what?”
“If you might think of me that way.”
[or the one where Lee spills wine all over Gaara at Naruto and Hinata's wedding after being too nervous to talk to him all night and they have the 'what are we' talk, kind of. then they have sex.]

Summary
Kankuro finding himself and realizing he deserves love, no matter who it is that he falls in love with (except it's set to his personal playlist.) Also lots of drabble about him living his life, arguing with Gaara, and being a normal dumb guy.
Oh, and there's a coup.~
"Kankuro finds he likes his room full of music and his bed empty. He’s had girls stay over before, and it’s been nothing but awkward. After a while, all he really wants them to do is leave. They tend to take the hint. It’s been a few years now, and Kankuro’s gained a reputation: he’s notorious for asking out every girl he sees. However, of some of the girls that have talked amongst themselves, they all come to the same conclusion: Kankuro is also well-known for never going all the way. He’s a challenge."Then he runs into Kiba.
~[alternatively, the one where Kankuro realizes he's gay and has a little bit of a hard time with learning to be happy.]

Summary
There are lots of things that Yagura Karatachi doesn’t like.
Laziness. Treachery. Green vegetables. Dull swords. Old cigars. Bar stools. Arrogant shinobi. Kids. Saba.
But no matter how hard he tries, Mei Terumi is never one of them.Truthfully, Yagura only wishes to dislike her because every time she talks to him, his mouth gets so dry he almost can’t respond. It’s infuriating.
orrrrr, alternatively, Mei is Yagura's right hand and they have a LOT more in common than just professionalism (they have sex)

Summary
The polyamorous band AU nobody asked for. Everyone gets some, plenty of smut, and even a little bit of plot starts to sneak in in different chapters. Rare pairs galore because I can. If a ship is tagged up there, it'll be there.

Summary
There is nothing now that Gaara, the man, can do to heal the wounds caused by Gaara, the monster. He cannot bring murdered villagers back from the dead. He cannot un-traumatize the children he terrorized in his youth. He cannot even repair the desert ecosystem that he disrupted during his massive, sand-filled rages. All he can do is be a safe harbor - level, and steady, and reliable as the sunrise - for his village, for his family, and for his friends.
Written for the GaaLee Summertime of Love Fest 2019, Day 16: Start a long overdue project!
