“Twice… what is this?”
“It’s a building!”
“Yes,” he can’t keep the words from grinding irritably in his throat, “I know. Why?”
“It’s now ours.”
What?

Summary
[As always, the café is empty upon his entry, bell ringing lightly into the unoccupied space. A head pops up above the counter, greeting clear around the metal contraptions in his mouth. Green tea and a pain au chocolat today, both billowing softly with steam. Beside the mug is a folded napkin and upon it rests a torn piece of paper, characters arranged strangely upon its surface.
“How was last night?” He asks, taking the mug into his hands.
“No problems, sir,” the boy replies, his smile flexing the purple and blue blossoming across his jaw. “Business as usual.”]

Summary
[ Izuku used to dream that society would move to make space for him.
Had he known this whole thing would be Bakugou Katsuki’s fault, would he have tried so hard? Could he have held that withered, decaying friendship in his gentle grip and endured the sudden abuse? His hands are so tired. His body is aching for something soft. The metal around his wrists somehow constrict his throat until no words can answer his mother.
He knows now that there has always existed a place for people like him.
“Izuku would never. He didn’t.”
This is his first introduction to the rest of his future. ]

Summary
Naruto is just the same—quick to pull some stupid prank or run his loud mouth—except when he’s not. Sometimes he’s dour and serious, with a downward tilt to his lips that fits Sasuke with a shiver of wrong, like stepping on a grave.
Sakura is kind and solicitous, except when she fixes Sasuke with a curdling glare like he’s done something unforgivable. She’s protective over Naruto in a way she didn’t used to be, haunting him like a shadow and yanking him up with strident force whenever he falls down those dark holes in his mind that seem to be new.
Things change when you're gone, but family is still the thing that hunts you down.

Summary
Naruto Yamanaka hadn't had any great aspirations for her marriage. As the powerless bastard daughter of Inoichi Yamanaka, she'd hoped her future husband would be kind, forgiving, and that he might find her company enjoyable.
Kakashi Hatake hadn't planned to get married at all. As a bitter and jaded war hero, he'd hoped his future would mostly consist of drinking himself to death alone in his home. When the Hokage mandated his wedding and he'd killed his bride less than a week later, he'd hoped the man wouldn't try something so stupid again.
A letter from the Hokage, mandating the marriage of one Hatake Kakashi to the daughter of the Yamanaka family, had Naruto and Kakashi both wondering why they bothered hoping for anything anymore.
_____Inspired by OchiMochiMochi's Hers
(And also beta'ed by OchiMochiMochi, for what that's worth)
I read Hers and wanted to answer two questions:
1. Can I beat OchiMochiMochi to marrying these dorks
2. What do I (the author) have to do to murder the fucking Ninja Mayor with my bare handsBookmarked by AmbleBamble

Summary
Harry has never particularly worried about her future. The Dursleys were horrible, it was true, and her parents were dead, but since she was very small she had understood that there were two people in the world who she would meet, and then they would be her family.
The words killed in action make her think that maybe there aren’t people waiting for her. Her stomach flips when Agent Coulson says it. He explains that they had died within a week of one another, which is sad almost beyond words.
Even if they are, somehow, alive, both would be well into their eighties. Even if she finds them, very, very soon, she will spend most of her life alone. It makes her - angry, almost, and inexplicably. As if Steven Grant Rogers and James Buchanan Barnes have broken a promise, as if they meant to die and leave her all alone.
Harry is twenty-one years old when Steve Rogers is pulled from the ice.
Steve might say that it is their choices that define who they are. Harry knows, she knows what her choices say about her. She knows exactly who she is and what she has done.

Summary
The war was over. Sasuke was still an idiot, but they were mostly getting over that. Everyone else was just trying to get back to some semblance of normalcy in the era after facing the Juubi and losing so much. Hatake Kakashi never wanted to be Hokage, but that's what he became. With that comes enemies.
During an ambush, Naruto jumps in front of a jutsu that would tear his former sensei's soul from his body. The jutsu begins to tear Kurama away instead. In a desperate bid to save both his and Naruto's life, Kurama does something almost as unpredictable as his host. He tries to send them back in time a day. This would have worked fine, except Kurama might have...overshot things a bit.
Oh, wow, is that a chibi Naruto running around? What year is it again?
Jiraiya begins hearing rumors of a man called the "Lost Uzumaki" that has made a seismic debut on the shinobi world stage. The only thing is that S-class nin don't just pop out of nowhere...usually. Jiraiya is sent to track down the nin and determine his loyalties. His new life depends on a good impression. The good thing is that Uzumaki Naruto's true superpower is his ability to talk even the most unwilling into submission. Meet Uzumaki Kuniharu!
