Summary
Not the fucking enemy, he tried to force his body to realize. Stand down. Kakashi bent to pick up his dropped groceries, even if it was only to avoid standing, stricken, next to his two unwitting near-victims. To catch his breath for a moment as he knelt.
---
Kakashi's anxiety threatens to overwhelm him when he returns from a mission. Iruka makes some last-minute modifications to his lesson plan.

Summary
Axel Brandt is a highly intelligent but overall normal guy. He lives a normal life, has a normal engineering job, has normal friends, so on and so forth. But then he died… or not. Displaced and still very much alive, now he's found himself in a distinctly abnormal situation. Ninjas are not something he wants to deal with.

Ghosts of the Past, Heralds of the Future by Kastaborous

Summary
In a near silent whisper, Hound raises a hand and breathes, “Kai.”
Yet, the scene below remains. Four figures, unsettlingly familiar even under the Sharingan eye. There isn’t a single imperfection in the genjutsu. Even the chakra signatures are frighteningly accurate. For a second, Hound recalls the seal’s sigil for “time,” but casts the thought aside as soon as it forms.
No. It’s convenient, too convenient. What better way to lower his guard then to appear wearing the guise of those he’d loved?
(Of ghosts he’d killed.)…
Or, Team Minato meets ANBU Kakashi. A story of grief, growth, and acceptance.

How to Redeem Your Past Mistakes, Commit Mild Treason, and Accidentally Build a Family by themidnightguardian

Summary
If Kakashi hadn’t seen Naruto living in squalor and Sasuke’s personal trauma shrine and whatever civilian fuckery was happening at Sakura’s house, he’d have at least tried to fail them even if logic told him the Elder Council would never let it fly. Screw the Hokage for that.
* * * * * * * * * *
When the Sandaime showed him Naruto’s apartment, he didn’t think that was going to be the tip of the iceberg that was the shitshow of his soon-to-be team. But as it turned out, Naruto wasn't the only one with a less-than-optimal home life. And as it turned out, Kakashi was apparently the only person in Konoha who cared.

Summary
Sometimes, all it takes is one act of kindness.
A civilian looks at a blonde haired boy hated for who he is, and thinks- he’s just a child. She looks at the lone survivor of a massacre be revered and idolized and thinks- he shouldn’t be alone. She looks at a pink haired girl with insecurities on top of insecurities and thinks- well, that won’t do. (And she glances at Kakashi, because she already knows him, and says she’s helping him whether he wants it or not.)
In which someone who will never quite understand them helps them understand themselves, because you don’t need to understand someone's struggles to love them.
