Summary
This is a (very) short story that I wrote for the FHR (Fallen Hero: Rebirth/Retribution/-) Fanzine, themed "Coming Home", on Tumblr. It features my own Sidestep, Day Storm ("Day" is actually a shortened version of his name, but I haven't publicly given out his full name yet lol), with Ricardo Ortega. It's in some weird spot time-wise. A little kinda AU-ish with the timing, since I don't know where to put it or if this even happens in their personal story at all.
This piece also has artwork attached that I made, that you can find on my tumblr with the same username/handle. (Haven't posted it just yet, but I will. Wanted to get this posted first).Anyway, Day is a mess. He had a breakdown in Ortega's apartment. And Ortega took care of him. This is post breakdown. All the comfort and none of the hurt.

Summary
Even with the power of the Sage, the sun and the moon on their palms, Naruto and Sasuke weren't strong enough. They had, somehow, managed to keep Sakura and Kakashi alive, just barely. The two teens looked at each other, the connection they shared allowing them to talk through thoughts. The Sage had showed them another way.

Summary
Sakura’s eyebrows rise a bit further, this time for another reason.
“Are they... you know?" she leaves the question hanging in the air between them. Does not know what word, what descriptor could end the sentence.
Naruto pulls a face, ready to protest and then stops. “I'm not actually sure.”

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.

Summary
“It never fails to confound me,” Wrathion says, bending the blossom toward the sun and back again, “how something so wrought with the power of symbolism can be so easily crushed.” He closes his hand around the flower, caging it against the soft leather palm of his clawed gauntlet, and flashes a fanged smile. “Don’t you think?”
“You used to be subtle,” Anduin mutters. “How did you find me?”
...
In the days following his time in the Maw, Anduin seeks respite at the Temple of the White Tiger, wishful that no one will come to find him. Wrathion has, of course, always done precisely the opposite of what Anduin wishes, and he is not so content to allow his once-prince to surrender himself to melancholy.

Summary
During their mission to Wave, Sakura realises how behind she is in her training and decides to do something about it. She vows to become a shinobi her Village and her teammates can respect and depend on. But Sakura has always been a paper-ninja, so her first stop for inspiration is the library where she finds unexpected help in the form of one very bored tokujo who quickly goes on to become an integral part of her life. Soon, despite the neglect of her sensei and all odds seemingly against her, Sakura's destiny begins to change.
