    Yeah I made a mistake and that mistake was opening myself to the possibility of hyperfixating on Obito, and now we're Here and Here is "a ridiculously long AU idea involving ninja politics, ninja politics: Kirigakure edition, Orochimaru Turned Himself Into A Snake Because He's Trans, knowing way too much about how sea critter physiology could translate into humans because of years of mermaid AUs, Kushina Not Taking Shit, how to have a long distance relationship over a shared eyeball, and Nael's Faves Not Dying."

    anyway do you ever stop and consider that Gaara's janky seal wouldn't have been such a problem if the last remaining Uzumaki seal master hadn't died the year he was born

    Kushina probably could have gone to Suna and fixed that baby right up and then gone home, but, unfortunately

    I was gonna ask in fic recs but I think I might get better results here: would anyone mind linking me some good gaara centric fic? Or literally anything that majorly includes him that explores his character better than Angry Sand Boy?

    Mind the word count -- it's fuckoff huge. I genuinely don't remember why it's rated Explicit; it's not smut. Probably there's like 2 sex scenes somewhere in it.

    I remember the Gaara content very clearly -- better than pretty much anything else -- but I can't guarantee that it's like, a majority of the fic, just that it left an impression.

    Fun fact: I found it by searching for complete Naruto fics with characters Gaara and Lee and then sorting by highest word count.

    "with no plans or, ultimately, resources past his arguably faulty knowledge of how everything came to happen, Gaara is sent back to the past to change the future as he knows it"
    It's time travel fic, which I don't know if it is your jam, but it's an interesting view into Gaara and his trauma.

    @Raire I've been reading lots of Sakura time travel fic and really enjoying it actually! I've been reading lots of Sakura fic in the genre, so with gaara instead sounds like a load of fun :DDD

    cosmofex trans lesbian extraordinaire

    aaaaaaa i went 2 months without posting a thing and then poster 2 chapters in 2 days, also i forgot to show it off on kintsugi

    basic premise is "what if naruto was deaf and 3/4 feral", but with a heavy dose of "i don't care what kishimoto says, stupid shit like this has lasting consequences that go way beyond a sob-story and a few dramatic fight scenes"

    link if anyone wants to read, and mind the tags because oof
