Until Their Leaves Fall Off / Naruto Fic (Fic Rec)

The first time Nawaki realizes something is wrong, he’s three years old and alone in the room in the attic of the orphanage. That’s not my room, he thinks. “Naruto, do you want to go to Ichiraku’s?” Hokage-jiji asks him when he visits him. That’s not my name, he thinks. Because he’s pretty sure his name is Senju Nawaki. It takes him a while to understand what happened. He died, he remembers one night, waking up screaming from a nightmare that shakes him to the bones because it’s not just a nightmare, it’s a memory, and he remembers running ahead of his team, seeing, too late, the wire as he trips it, and then fire, sound and pain, so much pain, and it hurts and it hurts so much and then… Nothing.

i swear to fucking god every chapter had me sobbing my eyes out

its GOOD. 16 chapters so far. not finished. BUT GOOD. oh my god

(i need more senju / uzumaki fics agHHH)

(people aren't really that great. except when they are.)

oh...

searched up the answers for all the emails

but..

ooh.... i wasnt sure about the handcuffs but our email was about using it on himself? so i figured 'i mean ppl like what they like' and that she'd use it on him

but.. oh...

you know what? i dont think i want this guy attending my party. can we talk about how the last option is either 'give her a bouquet of jasmine' (meaning like eternal love or something which, how do you expect someone to just know meanings like that. i chose it and instantly regretted it but i havent saved and im already getting irritaed at mystic messenger notifs so i just cant be bothered to load whenever the last time i saved is, which is i dont know)

or 'have an honest conversation'

tell me which one you think is the right answer. im waiting.

*happy noises*

this concludes your daily mystic messenger update (realizing that a lot of these daily updates i think come from like the early early chatrooms lmfao.)

LISTEN. some cards ive seen scrolling through are genuinely pretty good and enjoyable and i want

but oh my god these are just funny i have to share

Ace cards for valentine day

what

whyd it suddenly switch languages im so confused

is this german???

(this is the naruto online oasis game)

i finally reached it

already forgot what chapters it was but know it was like the last few chapters (SPOILERS)

lets just take a moment and lOOK AT HIM. LIKE HES SO PRETTYYYY and tHAT LITTLE SMILE !!!!

also AWEEE

and look at sad riddle aghh (honestly i don't think i'll ever like hearing full on crying, but the va did a fantastic job. like it wasnt just sniffles it was full on wailing)

like

trey: *saying something*

riddles dialogue box is literally just: *sob*

(anyway the section where we saw riddle's backstory was sad. and i noticed that the boxes where we get his thoughts sometimes cover his mouth so we can't see his expression. maybe it doesnt really mean anything but it felt like something to me)

anyway. you know how i got into twisted wonderland cause i read khr fics where skull was them or something? there was a riddle rosehearts one. and it honestly solidified riddle as one of my favorites before i even knew him

also it makes a lot more sense now (the writer gave him a happy family for one though which awe)

also "...and completely lost track of the time." gave me literal chills

anyway i hate the purple twistunes (sometimes the blue and red ones are trippy when notes are playing at the same time but i got into the habit of 1. listening to the music for guidelines, and 2. noting which color came first so i dont get confused). they're so unreasonably hard sob getting the timing right is hard and the music is a liar because i expect there to be a beat so i hit too early because im listening to the music and its WRONG. so i have to take the music with a grain of salt. listen to it but dont strictly follow it. and really focusing on the white bar but you ever focus so much you stop being able to focus like oh my god i get distracted and i dont know wHY (and thus comes the technique of 'go to the hardest difficulty, beat it, and then go back' or like. at least try it. cause sometimes it makes normal easier???)

if i didnt get all the things for twistunes itd bother me eternally. because rhythm is my jam. but sometimes they're so frustratingly hard cause you have to get like no misses (or no goods and stuff) for easy and normal. and easy is easier but sometimes it just doesnt click with me and aGH.

and im SO thankful that you dont have to get no misses on hard, you just need like ss and stuff which isnt that hard because you can miss a bunch and still get there. but oh my god i remember this time i was so used to it that every mistake i made on hard i just reseted. took a minute to think and realize 'hey wait a second this is hard')

pff.

lOOK AT THE SMILE

anyway i assume riddles mom cant influence him while hes here. does he still live with her? or does he have his own place? but like. if youre so used to following rules set by other people then how do you even live by yourself?

i mean. i guess he kinda took the queen's rules to heart, as familiarity and also something meant to be followed no matter what, because surely if it s a thing that exists, then surely it must be enforced, right? because the queen of hearts was the rightest or something

anyway savanaclaw is next i think. i dont know any of them lmfao

(i just remembered- i think riddle was like genuinely gonna kill ace. he like called on the roses to attack him or something and trey overruled it temporarily by turning it into like cards. oop.)
