Summary
“Did you even do anything?” Naruto asks. “Or just stood there and let her do all the work?”
“I’m lazy but not that lazy,” replies Shikamaru with a quirked brow. “I give back.”
“Okay.”
Shikamaru tilts his head to the side, “Do you want a demonstration?”
Both Naruto and Shikamaru aren’t really into romance or sexual intimacy in the way most of their peers are, but they still figure it out somehow. Together.
____In which, Shikamaru and Naruto are aroace without ever labeling it so, and kiss occasionally.

Summary
Shikamaru never really thought of Naruto, at least beyond the typical 'oh yeah, there's that guy.' At least until Naruto got up in his space and made that face and well, that bothered Shikamaru now didn't it? Relationship building (ish), some small angst, fluff, and rounding out in some solid, lovely smut.

Summary
It is doubtlessly true that Shikamaru Nara is excessively lazy. However, it is also true that he is extremely devoted to those who have earned it.
Despite knowing this fact, it's not until he's managed to land himself in the middle of leading the reconstruction of their city that Shikamaru realizes just what lengths he's willing to go for Naruto's heart.
But exhausting as it is, he finds he doesn't mind— especially if it lets him finally find the strength he needs confess his feelings for the other man.
Aka: Shikamaru finds his motivation, and it's shaped a lot like a certain jinchūriki.

Summary
The Academy smells just the same as the other new buildings in the village, a cacophony of dust and paint that has Naruto wrinkling his nose. His eyes glance across the unmarked walls and he struggles to remember the signs of wear that had decorated the old Academy with life. It seems the change is unending.
He catches the discerning look that Sakura shoots his way as they reach the final landing, a strange uneasiness pushing him to avert his gaze. Instead, Naruto finds his attention drawn to a lone figure standing at the end of the hallway, leaning against one of the walls that frames the doors of the Hokage’s office. Shikamaru looks up at their approach and a wry smile pulls across his face.
Naruto doesn’t even register the tension straining his shoulders until it’s gone, waves of relief rushing through him all at once.
The war is over and Naruto struggles to find his place in the aftermath.

Summary
Luke Castellan had lived once before. Back then, he was a she, and she’d read a certain book series where gods were real and monsters ran wild.
It was a fun read.
Living it? Not so much. Especially as the villain.
No problem, though. Luke had a plan: don’t act like book!Luke. Free will, right? Easy.
…Except Fate, when it’s an actual entity, doesn’t like being ignored.
(Note: Roman gods ≠ Greek gods.)

Summary
An accidental magical bonding isn't how Childe wanted to become a father, but parents don't really get to choose their children, do they? He's only giving up a year of his life, just until the baby can bond with her birth father, but it's still a year of his life. Besides, he and Zhongli aren't on the best of terms--not any more--and now, they're stuck raising a baby together. It's alright, though. It has to be. And all he has to do is not get attached.
(Aka: Childe accidentally bonds himself to a baby adeptus, tries not to get attached, and then gets very attached.)
