Like A Comet

Like a Comet

Summary: Kakashi gets roped into getting a palm reading from a visiting fortune teller who claims his future bride will come crashing into his life with a spirit of fire. Even though he attempts to brush it off, Kakashi faces his fate as a familiar villager who needs rescuing.

Snippet:

“Love is not something that comes easy to a seasoned ninja such as you,” Koujiko explained. “You hold everyone at arm’s length. Not to protect them, but to protect yourself.”

“A shinobi must not have earthly attachments, Fortune Teller. Any ninja worth their salt would know that.” Kakashi replied casually.

Koujiko frowned and pulled his palm closer once again. Her finger pressed to a spot in the middle of his palm with a gasp.

“See, right there? There is hope for you, Copy Ninja. Your marriage line is very prominent here. The chaos of your love line and marriage line come together strong here. Your future bride has a fiery spirit and will enter your life with the ferocity of a comet. You are lucky, sir, she’s quite lovely.”

Koujiko leaned back into her piles of pillows with reverent breath. Her eyes stared off into the distance as though she were looking into the eyes of this fake woman.

Kakashi retrieved his hand with a blatantly exasperated crease in his brow. Marriage had been out of the question since he was a teenager. Witnessing the many deaths of loved ones and seeing his comrade’s partners fall to shambles after their demise cemented his decision long ago. Anger swelled into his belly at the audacity of the fortune teller for implying he would have to suffer that fate. To love was to lose and to lose was to suffer. And he was sick of losing. Kakashi opened his mouth to argue with her, but the fortune teller raised her hand to demand silence.

“You are powerless to avoid such divine intervention, Hatake. Take things one step at a time. The strings of Fate will arrange themselves eventually.”

Man, if you like Sesskik or Sesskag, 7th Time Loop really REALLY scratches that craving for that almost exact ship trope. The main female character is actually amazing, like look at her go and standing equal to her man. Wow. Please tell me we are getting s2. The animation is amazing.

A brief note ….

Being a fanfic writer and living in the real world right now is really hard so I will be taking a brief hiatus. Chapters for Sing for Me, Songbird are planned out and need to be written.

I don’t plan on being gone for long, but I’m very tired and feel disconnected from fandom right now. Sometimes I feel like I put a lot into my work without much coming back to me. Maybe it’s my writing style, maybe it’s what I write about. I don’t know, but it gets lonely in a strange way.

I don’t mean to sound ungrateful to anyone or complain. I send all my love to the folks who take the time and effort to read and interact with my silly little stories. You are the reason fandoms stay strong and I appreciate you. 💖

Anyways, to end this weird vent-announcement post, please remember to drink water and stay safe out there loves. I’ll see you again soon.

Uploaded a new SessKag oneshot.

feels like love - A botched marriage proposal, in fact, several failed marriage proposals, and a love that blooms in the chaos in between. It is more than she bargained for and a nuisance all at once.

Preview below the cut :)

After the first year, somehow word had spread of their work and soon many villages across the Japanese isles were sending for their services. It was tedious work but after each successful job, the villagers seemed to always be in better spirits than when the group first set foot in them. Kagome liked the feeling of doing some solid work and the feast that typically followed wasn’t the worst thing that happened either.

It was through these jobs that Kagome accidentally built a reputation.

Albeit it wasn’t such a terrible one, however, it brought upon a lot of unwanted attention. Some of it she was used to. For example, Koga hadn’t at all changed from when they had been jewel shard hunting.

In essence, Kagome was just being herself. Kind, helpful, and incredibly selfless.

It was also what attracted nearly every single person (and the occasional youkai) to ask for her hand in marriage.
