    Summary

    Rock Lee doesn't remember a time when pain wasn't his strongest vice. You know what they say: pain in the body quiets pain in the mind. The young ninja is sure he'll fall apart without it, he holds on to his blade and bandages so tight he fears he can never let go.

    Gaara's spent most of his short existence of 12 years, wondering what pain is like. He knows all too well the pain of the heart, how it takes hold of a person and makes them feel like they're drowning endlessly underwater. Even through all his curiosity, the jinchuuriki's battle with Rock Lee leaves him paranoid and in fear of ever experiencing physical pain. Though, strangely... His opponent seems to rely on it to function.

    The two boys can't help but wonder about the other. They can't help but wonder just what goes through each other's head, and they're both equally as determined to find out.

    Summary

    Naruto Uzumaki was never going to stay hidden.
    When the Akatsuki dared to take Kashi, they had no idea who they’d crossed. Naruto might be a kid, but he’s also the son of the genius ninja Kakashi Hatake. That means he’ll find a way to bring Kashi home, no matter what. Sage Mode. Shinobi terrorists. Pain himself. Bring it on. Naruto will face down the Sage himself if it means saving the man who raised him.
    Because for Naruto, “family” isn’t who you’re born to. It’s who you bleed for.

    (A missing-nin Kakashi raises Naruto AU with sage-mode shenanigans, feral but supportive Kurama, the unyielding loyalty that is Maito Gai, and the unrelenting chaos that is Naruto’s “you hurt my dad” mode. Sequel to The Fox Runs to Sand.)

    Summary

    “We’ll tell nobody. We’ll let them make their own conclusions about what happened to us.” Charlie softly reassured him as he gently worked through a particularly tangled clump of blood and some other mysterious substance stubbornly clinging to Ranboo’s hair.

    “We’ll get you home, Ranboo.” Charlie swore to them, “It’s over. You don’t have to be brave anymore. It’s okay.” Ranboo hesitated, before slowly pulling away, and Charlie could only let them.

    “You can’t go back either.” Ranboo called him out, and Charlie wavered, “Please.” Ranboo sounded devastated as he begged, “Please, Charlie. I can’t- I can’t lose you too…”

    Charlie forced a weak smile on his face, feeling a sort of disdainful irony as he held up his pinky to the other. “I pinky swear, I won’t go back there.”

    It was only when Ranboo wasn’t looking did Charlie drop the crossed fingers behind his back.

    (AKA: A "What-if" where Ranboo and Charlie escape Showfall and deal with the turbulent journey that comes with recovery all while trying to keep the horrible things which happened to them a secret for the sake of their own safety.)

    Summary

    The smoke from Kremy's cigarette mingled with the smoke from Gideon's squelched flames. He hadn't stopped smoking since this morning, chaining cigarette after cigarette to keep his hands busy. The last time he'd tried to meet with Mr. Garou, he'd snubbed him, blowing him off just to make sure Kremy knew he could, but he was sure that this time he would see him. It was time for Kremy to foot a bill he knew was a long time coming.
    -
    After the whole faewild thing, Kremy still has to get those 100,000 gold pieces to Mr. Garou. Gideon insists on coming with him, and the meeting goes about how Kremy thought it would.

    edit: yeah okay, more is getting added to this. We're really in it now. If you just want what the original fic was without the later editions, it was originally just the first two chapters :)
