Summary
“Naruto is a person with a name,” Iruka snapped, already way past the limit of his patience for the day. Funny, how he could spend all day with small children, but a single council meeting wore him down to the bone. “Use it.”
“Hmm.”
For a long second, Iruka thought that he was about to die. And then Hatake’s eye curled in a friendly crinkle, an approximation of a smile.
“You’ll do,” Hatake said.*** 5 times Kakashi & Iruka tried to be a normal family for Naruto + 1 time they were a full on ninja family ***

Summary
Day 3: Soulmates //
At the RiversideTobirama only knew his own eyes were red because he’d been told. He also knew that red eyes were bad because it was the color of the Uchiha sharingan.
He’d always been smart. It wasn’t hard to put the pieces together.***
Madara always assumed his soulmate would be another Uchiha. And then, in one split second on the battlefield, he locked eyes with Hashirama’s pain-in-the-ass younger brother and suddenly realized the markings on the Senju Ghost’s face weren’t actually gray like he’d always thought.

Summary
On paper, the flood was blamed on Iruka’s apartment building being old and that the plumbing hadn’t been updated since the Nidaime was Hokage. It had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that Naruto was in an experimental stage with his sealing, or the fact that the mission desk had kept Iruka late one day due to some idiot’s incompetent filing, and therefore he hadn’t been home on time to supervise like he usually was. Nope. Couldn’t be that.
Either way, he needed a new apartment and fast: something cheap that wouldn’t eat up his meager salary. The inexpensive two-bedroom in the village center that was in a nice, secure, ninja-friendly building was too good to be true. There had to be something wrong with it.
"It's probably haunted," Naruto reasoned, looking delighted by the prospect.
---
Iruka and Naruto move into a new apartment that's way cheaper than it should be, and it only takes them one night to find out why: their new neighbor has a habit of starting the day with a shout at 4am. But Iruka decides the annoyance might be worth it when he discovers their new neighbor is not only handsome, but kind and caring as well.

Summary
Haku has only had siblings for a few short months, ever since Kakashi Battle Bonded Zabuza-shishou and brought them to Konoha, made them into a clan. But he adores Naruto and Sakura—and even Sasuke, though the boy is prickly and doesn’t call Haku nii-san the way the other two do—and he is trying. He tries to protect them when he can, tries to be there for them, support them the way he thinks family is supposed to.
He doesn't have much experience being a good older brother, but as he stands in the doorway of the shitty hotel room with Naruto shaking behind him while he stares down Uchiha Itachi, Haku knows this:
He might not have been born into the position, but it has only taken him three months to figure out how to be a better brother than Uchiha Itachi will ever be.
---
In the wake of everything that happened in Wave, Haku is bewildered and awed to find that he has a home in the Hatake clan, with Zabuza-shishou and Kakashi firmly seeing him as one of theirs. And, well, Haku has always been good at devotion. He takes to his new role as the eldest sibling of their mismatched family like a duck to water.
That doesn't mean he has to like his family's extended relations.

Summary
“Be safe. Look after each other. Try not to blow up the village.”
The three of them are conspicuously quiet. Their team has quite the penchant for destruction, though that’s mostly Naruto’s doing, and none of them are going to make any promises. Sasuke won’t be surprised if they burn down at least one building over the course of the chuunin exams, and he doesn’t think Kakashi would be either.
“Fuck ‘em up,” Zabuza says, grinning.
Haku offers his own, softer smile. “Good luck.”
---
Or: a look at the effects Zabuza's & Haku's presence has on Team 7 as they go into the Chuunin Exams.
(Sequel to Saltwater Oaths--for context, read that first!)

Summary
It’s a time loop. After Zabuza’s fifth time dying and starting over again, he felt pretty confident in that assessment, and each cycle, he only becomes more certain. The reset trigger is his death, and the start point is always right before his first confrontation with Hatake.
But no matter what he does, it ends the same.
Well, that’s not quite true. Sometimes it’s worse.
---
When Zabuza dies in the Land of Waves after Haku's sacrifice and Gato's betrayal only to wake up again at the beginning of the mission, he sees an opportunity to change things. But when all logical paths lead straight to death, Zabuza is forced to make the illogical choice--side with Hatake and hope that just once, he and Haku can make it out of this alive. Kakashi has his own motives for agreeing to an alliance, however, and with so much at stake, both shinobi find themselves far more entangled with each other than either had intended when they set out.
(Haku isn't sure what happened to Zabuza-shishou to make him care so much all of a sudden, but he's not complaining. Naruto & Sakura are already planning the wedding. And Sasuke can't believe his definitely-not-a-family just grew by 2.)

It had been the most surreal moment of her life; naked and sprinting like a madwoman through River Country, pulling on items of clothing as she ran for the hills.
Ino felt that the academy had not adequately prepared her for this situation.

Summary
Hatake Kakashi's well earned retirement is interrupted when he trips over a fuuinjutsu trap in the ruins of Uzushio.
Waking up thirty years younger in the Warring Clans Era, Hatake Kakashi just wants people to leave him alone. Unfortunately for Kakashi the Uchiha have a tendency to be very persistent in their affections once you catch their attention.
That being said, there's a lot Kakashi can do with the advantage of a hundred years of hindsight and Uchiha Izuna's hand in marriage.

Summary
"I wonder if they'll talk about this at the academy in the future?" Sakura wondered aloud with delight, a cackle escaping her. "Imagine it: the mysterious Uchiha look-alike who stumped the Nidaime Hokage with a kiss!"
"This is my legacy," Kakashi mourned, sighing heavily. "I taught the student who shared a kinky make out session with Senju Tobirama."
"Will you both shut up?" Sasuke asked, his voice bordering on hysterical.

Summary
Madara is young, but he knows his aunt well, “You let her go.”
Her eyes turn toward Kosuke, but… he doesn’t think she’s actually seeing his youngest brother, now trying to catch minnows. “Uchiha have the capacity to love deeply, Madara,” she says, “For us, to harm one’s soulmate is… unthinkable.”
(Madara may have been hoping for some way to end the fighting. What he got was a soulmate instead.)

Summary
Most kids have at least one flower tattooed somewhere on their skin by the time they leave the academy. They’re faint, usually, from passing crushes that left as quickly as they came. Some are a little darker, from crushes that lasted a few months. The darkest among their classmates' are Rin’s, near-opaque roses Obito knows he put there.
Obito’s never had any. Never awoken with flowers painted on his skin, nor spotted them inked there at the end of the day. Not even a single translucent petal. It’s just another thing that marks him a failure, that tells him he’s less-than.
He does his best not to let it bother him, tries to make Rin fall for him like he fell for her. Fails, and sees the evidence in his blank skin.
Getting put on Minato-sensei’s team is both a blessing in a curse. A blessing, because he and Rin are on the same team, and a curse because-
“You’re holding them wrong.” Fucking Bakashi ’s on their team too.

Summary
"But this Not-Sensei soulmate guy could be anybody," Naruto whines.
Sasuke narrows his eyes. "No. He tried to act like Kakashi, use his techniques. He must be familiar with him already..."
"They could be childhood friends!" Sakura gasps.
"Sensei has friends?" Naruto asks, squinting at Obito.
"Or he's a stalker." Sasuke grips the kunai he still hasn't put away.
"I'm not a stalker," Obito lies, pushing away the kunai edging towards him.

Summary
The thing about the whole Alpha, Beta, and Omega thing this world had going for it?
It wasn’t exactly something that had cropped up in her thirty-two-years of existence in her first world.
Idealistically she might have taken a second chance of life and done something noncriminal with it but Kiri hadn’t exactly been serving up chances to thrive and between spending her first years of this life listening to the grunts of strangers fucking her mother through the thin walls of a wardrobe and stumbling upon more than one child corpse left to rot in an alley, well.
Yata had abandoned that idea very quickly in favour of survival.
-
Or: the only reason Uchiha Yata is alive is because a luck of genes that had tipped her towards her father's colouring rather than her mother's and in a world of violence she's just another person playing a desperate game in a gamble for survival.
