Summary
Nearly two years after a rain-slicked tragedy severed his soul bond and left him a ghost in his own life, Omega Levi Ackerman is vibrating at a frequency of pure grief. It takes a haunting realization, that his young son no longer recognizes the hollow shell of a man inhabiting their home, for Levi to decide he must claw his way back to the living. Determined to become the parent his pup deserves, he returns to university to finish his degree and secure their future.
He didn't expect to find an anchor in the man standing at the front of the lecture hall, and he certainly didn't expect the syllabus to dismantle everything he thought he knew about himself.Bookmarked by BrenSNK

Summary
Iruka Umino survives the Konoha Crush, but the peace that follows is anything but quiet. Nightmares stalk his sleep, the Academy demands more of him each day, and the village keeps moving while he stays stuck in the ashes of the past. When an ANBU mission leaves Kakashi Hatake critically wounded, Iruka is the one Pakkun drags into the dark to keep him alive.
Bringing Kakashi home should have been temporary—just a few days of monitoring burns and broken ribs. Instead, it becomes something neither of them planned: shared mornings over tea, quiet dinners, the steady ache of grief eased by proximity. Kakashi sees the strength Iruka hides, the talent he buries, and the wounds Mizuki left behind. Iruka sees the man behind the mask, exhausted and reckless, and still trying to save the entire world alone.
Or Kakashi and Iruka finally realize they choose each other and navigate old enemies and old bloodlines together.

Summary
Through stubbornness and what Kakashi calls a ‘dazzling display of heart,’ Iruka somehow befriends the CEO of Hatake Corp, Hatake himself. And no, despite what Iruka’s friends might think, Kakashi is not his sugar daddy. Kakashi is giving and selfless, and he’s Iruka’s friend, kind and reliable. Sure, he does constantly try to buy Iruka things, and he’s attentive, almost overwhelmingly so, but that’s just how he is: Kakashi is lonely. He’s not used to having friends.
Besides, their relationship is totally platonic. There's no sugaring. If anything—and this is a big if—he’d be something like a… Sugar Friend. Yeah, something adjacent to that.
Iruka is becoming increasingly unsure if that is actually true.
