I still dream with you.
Regarding how Amegakure was under Hanzō's rule, before Pain, a point I see rarely remembered is just how strong he was.
Hanzō was the one to name the Three Sannin after sparing their lives. Jiraiya, Tsunade and Orochimaru were famous because they survived fighting him. We, the readers, know Hanzō because of Jiraiya; in their world, it was the other way around.
For me, it puts in perspective how much of a backstab Konan's kidnapping was. Yahiko, Nagato and the original Akatsuki did not see him as an enemy; the anime tells us that Nagato respected him. One of the most legendary ninja in the world: a man of Rain! Your compatriot, you leader. How could you not love him? How could Yahiko not trust his proposal of an alliance?
How could he betray them like this?
It also helps us understand why Yahiko didn't even try to fight back. His sensei was famous for not being killed by the man - what could he possibly do? Risk having Hanzō poison the rain and kill them all? In this perspective, one could argue Yahiko was only rational. Hanzō even escaped Nagato's rage unhurt.
Hanzō's power was so great that Nagato and Konan took years to win Amegakure's civil war. In the anime lore, we learn the Rain ninja we see in the Chunnin Exam were sent by him when he was still in power. This timeline would make Pain Amegakure's ruler for only the few years between Classic Naruto and Shippuden. I prefer the manga's implied timeline, that the war took years, but Pain ruled for much longer.
How was Hanzō perceived, apart from legendary and strong? All evidence is given that he was loved by Rain, before he became obsessed with power. Evil cannot be corrupted; to fall, first you have to be good.
We meet Hanzō's trap with just as much shock as the Ame Orphans do, but we often miss how helpless they must have felt. Any reaction was pointless; getting out of there alive was impossible. No wonder Yahiko despaired. We see Nagato's rage, and we know that Konan and him eventually won the civil war; we never see how hard it was, how long it took them. We also know Hanzō grew careless of his training, that he was no longer in his prime when Pain defeated him; his morals grew weak, his body and soul along with it. Pain tells him at time of defeat; he has lost himself so badly, he does not even know why he lost. But how dim can the light of a legend really get?
When Jiraiya comes to Amegakure, he cannot believe anyone could ever defeat him. It was inconceivable. He had been there, he witnessed the man - yet, Pain had done it. Recognizing Hanzō's legend doesn't only make his betrayal all the more hurtful - it makes Pain and Konan all that more terrifying.
Hey everyone!! I thought it'd be good to make some updates. Though my activity both here and on twitter has dropped significantly, I wanted to share that I'm still very much into Naruto and working on two main projects at the moment, one being that one +100k Ame Orphans fanfic I'm writing and some 3D stuff of Amegakure/Ame Oprhans. These two projects are the ones I will be more focused on at the moment!! Finishing the fanfic is one of my top priorities for this year. I really really want it so much to be done. It's probably one of the most important things I've ever created (and am still creating) in my life.
But the issue with these projects is that, although I work on them constantly, you guys won't be able to see the result until I'm done, which might make it look like I've vanished -- but I've not!! I'm very much here :)
I hope you guys can wait until I'm done, I promise it will be worth it!! Thank you so much for the support, always :)
Hey everyone, remember this? It was no empty promise! The story is already finished. I am, however, in the process of re-writing, mostly due to formatting and cadence issues. The style changed a lot from start to finish, I'm being careful to make it concise.
Hopefully, I will start the publishing near the end of this year! I'll keep you updated in this regard. Thank you so much for all those of you who show your love for the Ame Orphans!
lmao why is obito such a fun character to write with?? had the time of my life this past night
hey everyoneee just passing by to let you know that after a few years of struggle I'm finally on ADHD meds and OH BOY I'm being hit by the fact that I really miss my children (the ame orphans) soooo so much

The Ame Trio as teenagers. I love to think about their training days and all those little teenage dramas ⛈
I feel what hurts the most in events like today is the utter powerlessness that we from the rest of the world have as we witness this. There is nothing for us to do besides watch as everything unfolds until it ricochets back to us. I do feel like taking up the streets (as I have so many times before), but it is pointless. My voice does not matter for that country, even though its every action will affect mine in a domino effect. All people like me can do is sit and wait as the wave comes to hit us, and fight in yet again another political war which we did not start. Everyday I pray that you wake up and act, because it's also really sad to see how you suffer at the hands of your own governors. So many of us in the rest of the world are already fighting as much as we can, but we can't win if you guys don't win there first. I root for you so hard; I hope this day comes soon.

I know, for them, my house is not as homely. My thoughts, if any, not as profound. My relationships not as meaningful; my ambitions, non-existent. My hunger, a mere animal need. My culture, incoherent - my country, a mere landscape for the stories they’ll tell at dinner. And yet, I can’t bring myself to hate them.

love, at last
Disclaimer: Early Akatsuki era where Yahiko is alive and well, madly, deeply in love with Konan. And vice-versa. This fic was inspired but one of the amazing yahikonan fanarts @gakkubi made exactly one year ago (at least that's when it showed on Tumblr, 13th of Sept 2021). I have promised to write a fanfic of it and it happened to finish it right after 1 year, so happy anniversary to this amazing fanart.

Hi! Sorry to bother you, this feels like a bit of a loaded ask;;
So I'm currently working on a big ol fic and the ame trio (and original akatsuki) are a part of it. It has 3 original characters (2 being parents and one being a young child) that join Akatsuki. I was wondering if you had any tips for writing the ame trio as sort of older siblings to this kid? Also any general tips on writing the trio would be nice too if you have the time... I really love your work regarding the three. 💖
Hello!! Wow, this is such a lovely and fun ask! It's not a loaded question at all. I'm glad that you feel like asking my opinion on this, our own works are such personal things! I'm also super excited to know more people who are working on creative content (art & writing) with the Ame Oprhans. <3
I'll try to give an answer as detailed and helpful as possible! Leaving it below the cut because it will also be long, as I can't manage to be cohesive lmao.
I hope it's not a problem, but I'll rearrange a bit the order of your questions: first, general pointers about the Ame Orphans (+ Hanzo and Amegakure), and then how it'd relate to them being older siblings to your OCs.
Hello everyone, especially the anon who sent me a lovely ask yesterday :) I wanted to say firstly that I *loved* the ask, it's not a loaded ask at all, and secondly that I might take a little while to answer because things have been quite agitated lately (as you may have noticed, I haven't posted any art this month!) -- Since I want to answer appropriately, I'll probably only be able to post a reply in the next weekend.
Also, I'll try to resume posting art by either next weekend or next week as well, but thank you for everyone who has been reblogging my arts with such wonderful comments in the tags 🙏🧡 I read everything and appreciate immensely!~🧡
i am begging you all to stop treating this site like instagram if you dont want it to be content free by next year
actually i’m reblogging this again with commentary, fuck it.
There’s people in the notes talking about “not basing your worth off numbers”, and like. that isn’t what this post is about. It’s not a threat, either, it’s a comment on how this site works, at a mechanical level.
Likes are worthless. Let me say that again.
Likes. Are. Worthless.
They don’t do anything. They’re a bookmark. They were never part of how tumblr works - in the early days we didn’t even have a like button, and the site still more or less acts as though we don’t. They’re personal bookmarks and the only people who “get” anything from them are you (you bookmark the post) and the OP (maybe a very slight serotonin boost), but they don’t keep the post in circulation, they don’t keep it alive.
Without reblogs, a post will be dead in the water within an hour. No matter how good it is, no matter how many hours of painstaking love and attention its creator put into it, it will be dead within an hour and never seen again. It gets pushed down the dashboard and nobody aside from the followers who were online when it was posted will see it. And there’s a huge difference in engagement on posts that get even one lucky reblog from someone with wider reach - that one reblog shows your post to five, ten, fifteen other people, and if one of those people also reblogs it, and so on and so forth, that’s how posts stay alive and in circulation. It’s like a contagion, but we’re sharing creativity instead of disease.
And that matters. That “lifespan” of the post matters, artists and writers give up on this site and go to sites where posts have longer lifespans because it sucks to spend hours of your life, maybe even days, to get two notes and some fucking pocket lint for your efforts. We create for ourselves, but we share because we want people to see it, because that engagement offers positive feedback and encouragement to continue. But more than that, if every post (whether art, fic, gifset, whatever) is dying within an hour or a day of being posted, that means it’s not making it onto your dashboard. And if it’s not on your dashboard, you won’t see it. This kills the site, after a while. You stop seeing the posts, because nobody is putting them on your dashboard, because this site doesn’t have an algorithm like twitter and insta’s and it shouldn’t, it’s the last bastion of chronological timelines.
Forgive my giant fucking rant I am so tired right now and full of the plague but like stop acting like artists and writers are just being whiny little babies, or “threatening” to withhold our fucking work (you’re not entitled to it! it’s ours! if we get nothing out of sharing it we’re well within our rights to keep it private!) when we say this site will dry up without reblogs. We’re just stating facts.
also I’ve seen some people in the tags say ‘oh there have always been more likes on posts’ no there haven’t ????
these are posts from 2013, look at the ratio
not to sound like a nursing home resident but back then people know that the point of this site was to reblog things and share them, not to bury them away among your other 23k liked posts
