    Summary

    “Our girl, my love, will be a grandmaster.”

    At four years old, Temari touched her first chess piece, an action that would rule her life far beyond the game she expected. Hailing from a nation of chess giants and fuelled by a background that is anything but easy, she finds herself shaped into the hardened individual her sport requires and will do whatever it takes to reach the top. Even if that involves accepting assistance from an unexpected source.

    Summary

    After a mission that went wrong, Temari goes into a coma and wakes up two months later without any memory of who she is.

    Time is the only thing that can help her recover her memories. But luckily, she has a family more than willing to accompany her every step of the way.

    Summary

    But Temari was pretty. With a pretty sharp wit and a pretty difficult attitude to top it all off – or so it seemed Sunday morning when he woke up to her trying to sneak out. Temari in the morning light acted a little different from the girl he met at the party. Abrasive, brash. Maybe alcohol made her more mellow, agreeable. She wasn't the kind of girl he usually navigated towards, not calm or gentle.

    But Shikamaru didn't completely dislike Temari. She seemed like a challenge, and instead of feeling put out by her ironic words the morning after, he felt… thrilled. It was weird.

    Maybe he should text her.
