    Summary

    All shinobi were patently insane by mere metric of choosing to be shinobi.

    There were no exceptions.

    (Hiruzen Sarutobi was barely functional without his smoking pot. Iruka-sensei actually wholeheartedly believed in abstractions like the Will of Fire. Kakashi-sensei had never exhibited one sane behavior in life, probably since he came out of the womb. Tsunade Senju embedded people into walls and floors for mild inconveniences. Jiraiya allowed himself to gain the moniker of “Toad Sage” and took full pride in it. Sakura was delusional enough to think Sasuke could be fixed. Shikamaru stared at clouds for a disturbingly long amount of time. The list went on and on and on—)

    And they’d been ninjas for a lot of their lives. That strain of insane wiggling about in their DNA had to have quadrupled by now.

    Naruto and Sasuke are stuck in a never-ending loop of reincarnations and for their sixteenth life, they decide to become florists.

    Summary

    Shikamaru and Ino aren't anyone's first choice of time travellers.

    They don't have the monstrous power to take on the akatsuki, they don't have the charisma to bring the alliance together early. They don't even have Choji.

    They also don't have any other choice.

    Lucky for the elemental nations, what the the remnants of team ten DO have is a mission: save those they love, no matter what.

    Summary

    Itachi is a shinobi. He lives, he serves, he fights, and he obeys. It is not a life he wants - not a light burden, or one that can be tossed aside as the heir to his clan. He is a pawn. A tool. To be human is a callously hopeful dream he cannot bear to consider while his family wades through a self-crafted political quagmire.

    He is drowning. He is flying. Itachi wraps bruised knuckles and tries not to feel like a crow with broken wings. Sasuke deserves better. Shisui is steadily absent more often, and the elders are starting to claw their way to a coup. Itachi is backed into a corner with no way out.

    Meanwhile, Shikamaru has traveled back through time and is quietly dismantling the Akatsuki for funsies, but this story isn’t about him.

    Summary

    There’s more to peace than the absence of war. The work is as hard and uncertain as any Shinobi mission.

    Summary

    The Cursed Seal of Heaven has a very specific purpose—to heighten and aggravate emotions and physical strength. After all, a man obsessed is a man easily manipulated.

    And there is no one more obsessive than Sasuke Uchiha.

    Orochimaru is counting on the seal to amplify Sasuke’s need for vengeance and power until he comes crawling to Orochimaru on his own, thirsting for the knowledge to defeat his brother.

    What Orochimaru didn’t count on, was that Sasuke Uchiha had become just as obsessed with mother-henning his own teammates.

    Something Naruto, Sakura, and Kakashi are finding out the hard way.

    Essentially, as soon as Sasuke wakes up after the invasion, he panics, kidnaps his teammates from the hospital, and locks them away in his apartment.
