Summary
“Someone is calling for you.” Zooble mildly spoke, frowning at the way the child cowered.
“I hate that name.”
“Huh?”
“I wish I had a different one.” The boy’s voice wobbled.
And then, Zooble was alone again.

POST EPISODE 9 FINALE SPOILERS!
————————
“Well, I wouldn’t mind seeing the maid dress again.” Ragatha mumbled, and they all froze.
Ribbit broke first, a loud guffaw escaping as Kaufmo snorted into his hand.
“…What?” Jax flushed. “What the hell do you mean by that?”

“Well, I suppose your husband will keep you in line.” Iruka giggled, twirling one of Kakashi’s locks distractedly.

A beat.
“Ah.”

Summary
It was a comment Alastor had made in passing while sharing a cup of tea, one that the overlord hadn’t thought too deeply about. It wasn’t a strange thought to have, so why did Charlie have that expression on her face?
…Who wouldn’t prefer being a woman, after all?

Summary
Soulmarks were special.
Movies liked to romanticize them, sure, but they were more than a mark. They were a symbol of a lifelong bond, of a closeness that many yearned to achieve. Married couples showed them off more than wedding rings if a pair of matching marks appeared, gloating to all that would listen.
The marks were sometimes identical, but other times matching as a pair. It would be something meaningful to the pair, typically, something that brought joy.
Mike and Will had their first matching ones appear when they were 6 years old.

Summary
Cas comes back. It's not exactly the reunion that Dean is expecting.
~~~
Dean stares at him, flummoxed. Cas quite literally poured his heart out to Dean, gave a truly sappy and distressingly romantic speech and everything, then proceeded to give his life so that Dean could live his. And he wants to act like he doesn't want to see Dean, be around him, touch him?
Actually, Dean's ninety-nine percent sure that Cas probably wants to fuck him, and while he has no clue how he feels about that, he's pretty goddamn sure that means Cas doesn't get to act like this and make it authentic.
It feels strangely real, though, as if Cas wants nothing more than to get as far away from him as possible. This is a blatant contradiction. Even someone as weird as Cas doesn't want to get away from the person they have the desire to fuck five ways to Sunday, that they're in love with. That's not how these things work, so Dean isn't buying it.

The silence in the car becomes unbearable.
“Hey kid,” Billy tries. “Where you from?”
“The future,” she replies.
Okay, so she doesn’t wanna talk. “Right, got it.”
Except he desperately needs something to distract him. “Like distant future, or…?”
“A year and a half,” she says. “Maybe more.”
“Damn,” he whistles. “Future any good?”
“No," she says. "Everyone dies.”
“Sounds rough.”
“Yes,” the girl agrees. -

Summary
The first time the Prism marred Kakashi’s pale skin, he was four years old, and he thought it was a bruise. It was dark blue and purple, cupping his cheek, running down his bicep and ribs to settle on his abdomen. If it weren’t for the way the colors undulated and swirled, migrating across his body in long swathes, Kakashi would have dismissed it as another complication of training.
That was the day his father gave him the mask.

Summary
If you asked anyone in Konoha about the relationship between Umino Iruka and Hatake Kakashi, they would probably shudder. As far as anyone knows, they were born hating each other.
The truth is that their antagonism goes far back to their childhood and the strength of emotions between the pair has always been intense. This is the slow evolution of a relationship between two very different individuals over the years as those emotions take on a different intensity.
