Day 28 - Inoichi

Another of the good dads. I did cry when he died

[inxichis]

murasakiirohana​:

    Ino had just barely gotten home and was planning on heading straight for her home when she heard her dad call her. The smell of his cooking wafted through the air and her mood instantly switched. Inoichi was often busy so getting a home-cooked meal from his was always a treat that she’d never pass up.

   “I didn’t know you were cooking tonight! I thought you said you had to stay late,” Ino starts, moving to stand at his side to get a look at what he was making. “It already smells sooo good. Do you want me to help? I’ll have to change first though.”

“If you would like to help me, I would love some help.” He smiles at his daughter fondly, for exactly as long as he is able before the meet presents a serious concern. After she disappears upstairs, he tries to once again mentally prepare himself for the conversation they have to have tonight.

The beef comes to somewhere around medium, and Inoichi takes it off the grill to rest. The veggies had been simmering, but now that they have his full attention, it’s time to get a char on them. When she comes back, he addresses her, “Could you check on the rice? Also, if you want anything else, now’s the time to add it in.”

[inxichis]

inoichi and shikaku are so best friends that they even died at the same second

[inxichis]

inoichi and yoshino and shikaku are all best friends

your ot3 only works if no one is loved any less and if everyone is the awkward third wheel sometimes @scariestnara 

[inxichis]

single fatherhood--

inoichi’s schedule had been much like shikaku’s, prior to becoming a father. he worked long hours, most of the time managed to be home for dinner, and couldn’t and didn’t want to talk about his job with his wife. he wanted to keep work and home separate, keep his family as a refuge for his tired mind. he was always valiant about doing his duty, no matter that he would have preferred to spend more time in the flower shop. when ino is born, his hours don’t change much. after all, the needs of konoha haven’t changed, and in some ways they are more pressing than ever--

when the kyuubi attacks, the jounin are all called away from their homes in the middle of the night to stop him. inoichi kisses wife and baby hurriedly, vowing to return home in one piece. 

after the battle is over and he discovers what he has done, who he has lost, inoichi cannot go home, to his house. he will see her around every corner, think every sound is her. he will imagine her soft humming and the scent of her hair, and it will break him. ino needs him, and he can’t break. it is without doubt that he asks the naras if he can stay with them. he needs to be around family right now; he needs that support system. he leaves during the day to take care of yamanaka clan business, but he does not set foot in the house that he shared with his wife.

he stops working quite suddenly, leaving the entirity of t&i without a head interrogator and the hokage without a constant stream of information. they push him to come back for weeks, so much so that he snaps.

i’m all she has in the world! i need to be there for her!

his best friends, shikaku and chouza, are there and they support him, but inoichi’s temper has been pushied to its breaking point. he approaches sandaime’s desk and hits it hard with his palm, never breaking eye contact.

i will quit. and then you’ll be left with nothing.

effectively, he is a stay at home dad until ino enters the academy at five. upon his return to full-time work, he realizes that it was a nice break. he realizes that he likes tending to the shop, dealing with clan business, and being ino’s father. he realizes that he doesn’t want to juggle torture and interrogation as well. after just a few days back at work, he realizes that he didn’t want to return.

[inxichis]

a little about inoichi’s wife--

he was unattached for most of his life by choice. when it came down to it, the hard truth was he didn’t have room for other people’s emotions in his head. his line of work demanded that he be careful of who he let into is world, and if he didn’t keep up a constant wall between what he felt and the what the memories felt, yamanaka legend forewarned of brain death.

but when he had seen her... he had fallen for her instantly. kaida was love at first sight, and she was gorgeous. he saw her, and he couldn’t look away. he left his friends mid-sentence and went over to talk to her, to get her to smile at him, to ask her out, to see if that spark of lighting had only hit him. platinum blonde hair and bright blue eyes, tall and slender, she was the kind of woman young boys dream about being with. but she liked him back, and kaida fell for inoichi as quickly as he fell for her. they were married within a year, were pregnant within another year, and before the dawn of the third year, she was gone.

a civilian, kaida ultimately decides that she cannot bear the responsibilities expected of her. to act as the wife of a clan head meant dealing with a lot of people, day in and day out. people who could use a special mind melting jutsu, and she couldn’t. raising a ninja daughter when she herself was not a ninja felt like a monumental task. if ino wasn’t talented, she would be blamed. most of all, she wasn’t raised the way they all were, to put the village first above everything. she wanted inoichi home, with her, not working ridiculous hours interrogating for the hokage.

it occurs to her one day that she could just leave, that she should just leave. he’s never going to choose her; she’s never going to come first; and she deserves to come first. in the chaos of the kyuubi attack, kaida slips into the night and never comes back. ino is just over a month old. she leaves her with yoshino and lies about needing to grab something from the house. none of them ever see her again.

and inoichi never quite gets over her, never opens up his heart again. they fell so quickly for each other--he says he doesn’t remember how to get back up.

'What a sad beautiful tragic love affair' (post kyuubi attack, hit me fi)

♡   RED -  TAYLOR SWIFT  [  𝚂𝙴𝙽𝚃𝙴𝙽𝙲𝙴 𝚂𝚃𝙰𝚁𝚃𝙴𝚁𝚂 𝙿𝚃. 𝟹  ] || @inxichis

she doesn't answer at first.

it was, sad and beautiful and tragic. it was sad, in the way you look at something with regret and anger while still trying to hold onto the good. it was beautiful, in the way you see a child and all their possibilities. the love you have for them, so pure and magnificent, almost overwhelming.

it was tragic, because inoichi was left behind with only bitter memories of a forever he almost had. an endgame he nearly touched. so close, only to be ripped away.

yoshino doesn't answer because she knows her words will only ring hollow. they will not bring comfort because inoichi is just like her; he would rather take the suffering than empty sympathies. he has taken on the pain and fought it every day and it would be insulting to think simple words could fix anything for him.

she doesn't answer but she gets up and slowly pries a sleeping little ino from the crib installed in the nara compound's living room, where inoichi and her have now spent countless hours. if her words can't help, she knows something that can.

yoshino walks back to inoichi and gently places his daughter in his arms. it's automatic, the way they both grab onto their infants now, something instinctive and natural they both share. she then sits next to him on the couch and allows her head to fall on his shoulder so she can watch ino's expression, how she relaxes immediately against her father's chest.

deep down, yoshino knows inoichi will eventually need to face the hurt leftover from his wife just disappearing on him. she knows it is a wound that will need tending. at the same time, she thinks he's allowed the small kindness of holding his child, the one good thing that came out of this. not the memories, who turned sour, not the love, which was betrayed. but ino, little ino who will stay untouched by it all.

she's the beautiful in the tragic. she's the hope inoichi can cling to.

山中一族 - Yamanaka Clan

[inxichis]

scariestnara​:

“i don’t really believe in luck, i’ll have you know,” she snorts. an honor, sure. apparently, the cockiness isn’t a nara gene, it may as well be an inoshikacho tradition. maybe they get it with the earrings.

“ah–” yoshino seems to consider for a second but she nods. “we should, huh?”

“you seem to know plenty about me already, but i barely know anything about you beyond your reputation,” she raises an eyebrow pointedly, placing her chin on her open hand to study him. inoichi is handsome, almost intimidatingly so. she’s not so foolish as to pretend he isn’t. but there’s more to him and she wonders if he just… likes being pretty so people don’t look further. a question for another day, she muses to herself, when you’re maybe more than barely acquaintances.

“so, where do we start? do we just… spill our tragic backstories on the table?” she takes a sip from her teacup, watching him from over the rim. yoshino knows they’re both children of war, kids who have seen far too many horrors for their age. tragic backstories are nothing special, nothing unexpected from their generation. 

he finds her agreement lackluster-- but what was he expecting? certainly some enthusiasm, maybe even a little gratefulness? instead, she merely repeats the idea out loud, as though she hasn’t thought about this moment for a second. does she really come up with all of that off the top of her head? if she has shikaku’s interest, the likelihood is very high that she’s good at thinking on her feet.

he inclines his head again, offering acknowledgement. he likes being known by his reputation, and he’d very much prefer to be someone the villagers only know of. there isn’t space in his head for extra feelings or opinions; it’s why he’s been so hesitant in trying to get to know yoshino. he serves the village by rooting around in people’s memories and pulling out information, but he has difficulty getting what he doesn’t need anymore out of his head, so he keeps it all locked up. he tries to preserve as much space as possible for his own thoughts and feelings, and his loved ones’, and after only a few minutes of conversation with yoshino, it’s become quite clear to inoichi that he’s going to have to make space for her.

he wants to answer coyly, the way he usually does with people he barely knows, but suddenly that seems so boring.

“you know the rooting around in people’s heads thing i do? it’s exhausting.” he closes his eyes and takes a long minute to open them again, demonstrating. “not unlike shikaku, i can fall asleep just about anywhere.” he lifts one side of his mouth in something resembling a smile. “i get really bad migraines, sometimes. i just lie in dark rooms, and shikaku controls the shadows in the room, you know, and it helps. knowing he’s there helps.”

he breaks her gaze for the first time, unsure why all of this is coming out of his mouth. but then, he’s always been an all-or-nothing kind of person. he lifts his eyes to hers once more, trying to read what hers contain in their depths. “i guess that’s where i’d start with my tragic backstory, the fact that i torture people for a hobby.”

[inxichis]

well.......
