    Summary

    A single, bad joke, and Yuuji's life is completely rearranged; launched haphazardly and half-dead into the Heian-era, he has to compete with a Sukuna who has his own body back, and all the plotting power a millennia-long grudge can gift him.

    Summary

    Itadori Yuji is a ray of sunlight on a chilly day. He’s an inappropriate joke at a wedding. He’s the guy who makes a scene at a funeral. He’s the type to be there for someone else, even when he has no reason to be. He’s the one who takes on curses without a thought to his own self-preservation.

    But lately, Megumi doesn’t think Yuji is always the one at the wheel.

    Ugh!! One of my favorite tropes in literature- what do you do when someone you love changes, becoming something slightly off… I love how despite being from Megumi’s POV, we can really see Yuji’s struggles. I also enjoy the uncertainty if Yuji is the one changing or if Sukuna is taking over more… The ending scene is hopeful but I fear it doesn’t last long…

    Summary

    What Sasuke Uchiha wants is an indeterminate EC-02 Step 2 position with the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation that offers a decent salary, health benefits, paid vacation, and a manager who won't break all his Excel spreadsheets. What he gets is Naruto Uzumaki, an improbably attractive and unbearably annoying co-op student who eats way too much instant ramen and doesn't understand that "casual Friday" doesn't mean varsity sweatpants.

    Official CBC Canada Reads Selection 2019, made possible by the generous support of the Canada Council for the Arts and the Ottawa Tourism Board.

    I loveeeeee this fic (and this whole series). I am so amused by how Canadian this is and how the author must have worked in a similar position. But honestly this is such a great depiction of working. Like this reminds me of back when I was hired for a semi office job that I did not have the background for but realized how incompetent people are (my supervisor quit on me with just a two weeks notice and the person they hired to replace him didn’t know how to “save a Google doc”). I was not nearly as dedicated to my job as Sasuke but yes that frantic feeling of taking over things and doing it all while being underpaid and honestly not That experienced is so real. Honestly one of the realist fics I’ve ever read.

    Summary

    Something unreadable is on Kakashi’s face, but he doesn’t seem impressed. “You two are eloping?”

    “No,” Naruto says pointedly. His gaze drops to the floor. For once, he chooses his words carefully. “But if he can’t stay, then I’ll go with him.”

    Kakashi’s voice is grave. “You’re the number one candidate for Hokage. You tirelessly ranted on and on about how this is your dream. Are you going to give up all that hard work?”

    “It’ll just be a little while,” Naruto mutters, not quite believing himself.

    “Surely you aren’t that naïve, Naruto,” Kakashi warns. “If you leave with Sasuke, I don’t think we’ll ever see you again.”

    “I’m not being naïve,” Naruto says. “I would come back.”

    Kakashi’s voice has dropped any pretence of humour. “I thought you hated people who lie to themselves the most.”

    After their legendary battle and final fight in the Valley of the End, Naruto slowly heals in the hospital. Sasuke doesn’t.

    Three years later, whilst on a diplomatic mission to the Hidden Grass Village, Naruto encounters a masked mercenary who takes him by storm.
