MY BLOOD IGNITES.

do you h e a r ♖ the birds? Hatake Kakashi. 27. Jōnin. "Sorry I'm late. You wouldn't believe the traffic." Indie RP blog for Kakashi from the Naruto series. Semi-hiatus until May 2nd!!!

[uchihamother-blog]

— { ♣ } — The raven haired mother’s smile became curious for a moment before she kneels to gather another portion of her groceries, “I cannot tell if you’re trying to push forward an innuenndo or not, Kakashi-san, hehe!”

"While it’s nice to see you out and about, helping… You wouldn’t happen to be late for anything?" This seemed like a perfect excuse for the other, yet still she smiles warmly.

[lighttningstrike]

Call it a mother's intuition--quite a frightening gift if one thought about it.

Looking to her, the copynin answered, "was it that obvious?" Carefully, he put the still salvageable foods back into the bag, rising to offer it to Mikoto. "It's nothing that requires immediate attention--it can wait." Naruto, Sakura, and her very own son were probably grumbling profusely somewhere... "But this is a lot of food. You don't have something planned do you?" 

[irumino-deactivated20161231]

"—hey!" He instinctively scooted closer. "Don’t do that. I’ll be forced to stand uncomfortably close, and loop arms, and then people will get funny ideas." He said it threateningly, but he was half-smiling. "Paperwork won’t kill you," he assured him. "It’ll be done before you know it, and then I’ll be off your case for a while until it piles up again. Or would you rather I bring you to the office and sit you down every time there’s a new one? That way, it’ll never pile up. How about it?" 

[lighttningstrike]

"Mhm?" Their shoulders bumped, and the jounin was momentarily stirred from his trance. "That's alright... Maybe you shouldn't do that." Slowing down, he moved the umbrella to better accommodate them both.  "And as convincing as that offer is-" it wasn't "-I'll have to say no. I can't keep you away from work just to supervise me." Then, tacking on with a harmless jab of his own, added, "and shouldn't it be the other way around anyway? You've gotten a bit comfortable with giving me commands. When did the tables shift?"

[irumino-deactivated20161231]

"You’ll be getting to them when we get inside," he corrected, chuckling. He was outranked, but that didn’t seem to stop him from exerting some form of authority over him in little trifles like this. He pocketed his hands and stared at the little puddles beginning to form. "Don’t think you’ll be getting out of it today." 

[lighttningstrike]

"There's no getting around you, is there?" Kakashi had the right to ignore him, but, alas, Iruka had a way at discouraging such rebellious attitudes. Maybe he was too good of a teacher; it was seeping into his personal life, infecting things like a rampant disease (or he just never let up). "Believe it or not, Iruka, I am capable of kindness..." He seemed to be in his own world as he lamely argued his case, walking on to the point where the umbrella began to disappear from over Iruka's head.

Notice me!

[lighttningstrike]

*notices* Yeahh?? What's up? (-:

[irumino-deactivated20161231]

…he was resourceful. Iruka didn’t even see the umbrella stall nearby. “Thank you,” he replied, staring up at it. “Let’s go, then.” Still a little wet, Iruka appreciated the umbrella more than he’d have appreciated running across the village in this downpour. “You— don’t think that just because you’ve been kind to me, you’re exempt from doing your paperwork when we get in. You’re still going to do it. Understood?” 

[lighttningstrike]

They fell into a comfortable pace despite the rain, those falling drops beating a steady staccato onto the umbrella. It was a calming sense of disorder washing over them. "Mhm? Is that what you thought I was doing?" When had he been this suspicious of him? Kakashi can't remember. "I wasn't aware you had such little faith in me... I'll get to them in due time."

[lighttningstrike]

I'm way too busy today, heads up. By the way, I need to catch up on the Naruto series... A LOT. So, mind my lateness/slowness, and if you wanna say something or help fill me out when I ask... I'd appreciate it, lol. Just asking for your patience and understanding. I've been out of Kakashi's skin for a long time, and I'm definitely doing my best to get the feel of him back (and I hope I'm doing a good job) which is my main focus right now, so I hope it makes up for everything just a little bit until I'm caught up in the series. Semester ends on Wednesday, so I'll do what I can after then. Until then, just realize that! Thanksss.

[lighttningstrike]

[/stares at]

That stare bore at the back of his head, like sharp daggers that pricked his skin and swallowed his attention whole. Kakashi couldn’t deny his presence even if he tried. “…..I wasn’t expecting a visit,” he noted.

[uchihamother-blog]

— { ♣ } — “That was unexpected!”

[lighttningstrike]

"It was," Kakashi replied calmly before pocketing his book, body then tasked to retrieve some of her fallen groceries. Mind always on those little novels... At times, reality needed to crash into him in the form of a forgiving woman. "Literature truly does have a way at helping you lose yourself..." Oh, don't get deep, Kakashi. 

[irumino-deactivated20161231]

The first drop hit his nose suddenly enough to cause him to start, hand raising to swipe at it. And then another, and another, and it wasn’t long before his hair was near soaked. 

"Me? I was nothing but optimistic. Maybe your dull mood brought it on,” he quipped, not even bothering to shield his head with his hand. As much as he enjoyed water, this was too much. And it was cold rain, too; he’d have a cold tomorrow without a doubt. “We should get going.” 

[lighttningstrike]

Quick to fire the comebacks, huh? Fair enough. "Iruka, it's still a good walk away. You'll only manage to accomplish getting yourself sick." Catch your breath. Sometimes, slow and steady was the better course of action. "Excuse me, miss, I'll be taking one--" then, with a quick flick, a coin was tossed followed by a mindful 'have a lovely day' just as an umbrella--splashed with vivid reds and blues--opened above their heads. What luck. "There. I don't think it'd be a good idea to run out in the rain... But, if you're really in that much of a rush, you're free to test your luck. I wouldn't want to hold you back."

Yugao blinked nodding her head yet again. ”yeah…quite a while indeed, um how is your squad doing?” she asked. ”h-huh? Yeah of course I am why wouldn’t I be…?” Yugao said averting her eyes. ”um I should get going—-” Walks by.  Turning back she spoke yet again, “Um if you need me I’ll be around…mentally hitting myself for being weird right now.” she said to herself.

[lighttningstrike]

"They're coming along well," he answered easily. "They have high expectations, but they're a determined group. I think they'll manage to surprise even themselves." Despite his aloof nature, at times, there were hints of warmth that shaped his words, ones behind all that nonchalance. But Yugao's unexpected departure did well to drop the conversation. "So you're busy then? I thought if you went through the trouble for a minor reunion, you wouldn't have minded a small drink." Whoops. "Mmh. Some other time then."

[lighttningstrike]

"Kaka-sensei!!!"

"Hey, don’t be too loud," came one lazy command, his mentor walking slowly in the haze of the waking morning. Konoha was just stirring to life, and here Naruto was brimming with enthusiasm. It was pleasantly familiar. “You haven’t changed a single bit, have you, Naruto?”

[irumino-deactivated20161231]

"—really?" He took it as a grand compliment, of course; he knew that Kakashi must have been concerned the few times he’d raced to his aid both on the field and others, within the village, and the thought of the friendship that sparked was quite satisfying. They made a good team, lightning and water combined. 

"Oh— I’m alright. They’re a little restless these days, actually. I usually hold a few outdoor classes per week, but it’s been raining so much that I’ve been keeping them inside. They don’t like the change much. But it ought to be sunny tomorrow, so I’ll be taking them to the river to work on their balancing."

[lighttningstrike]

True. Alone, they were dangerous enough--after all, they were warriors who've mastered their craft. Together, they could reign. Trust came easily then, but Iruka was right; it didn't thwart concern, not in their line of expertise. 

"They'll do well. You're watching them after all. They wouldn't want to disappoint yo--" Plop! came a soft thud against his head. Then more, and more, a soft singsong of pitters and patters. Kakashi blinked. "Oh? ...It's raining." And down it crashed, a wash of rain cascading down the two unsuspecting shinobi. Was it something Iruka said? "I think the clouds overheard you," he noted with faint disappointment.

[xmpereur-deactivated20230922]

It became a habit already! It’s so hard to fight with this. But, I can do it. Yesss — AHHHHH. Do you ship KakaSasu though? Because, if you do, I wanna plot a thread with you. -giggles- It’s one of my precious ships! ಥ⌣ಥ

[lighttningstrike]

I have full faith in you. I'm linking hands with a thousand people and we're forming the best and brightest prayer circle for you as we speak. Aiiii, I can't say that I do ship KakaSasu, sorry. I wish I could help fill that spot for you, but I've never delved much into relationships with Kakashi regarding anyone period before. -  -!!

The purple haired woman glanced away at her former idol, her cheeks tinted as she remained silent for a few moments before speaking. ”No…I just came here on a whim…and yeah I guess.” she blushed still fidgeting with her hair.  Why was she blushing? she had thought she gotten over her little “Crush” but she guessed wrong. 

[lighttningstrike]

Strange. Kakashi kept his back to the wall, that usual aura of placidity just as strong as it'd always been. Raising his head, attention still trained on her her, he said, "well then, it's been a while, hasn't it?" A hint of a smile reached his eyes then; it was courtesy, pleasantries. "I take this as a sign that everything is going well on your end--" Ah, her face was blooming a steady red. "Mhm? Are you feeling well?"

[irumino-deactivated20161231]

"Almost," he replied. "But I’m quite skilled at managing my time, you know, so I’ve got the evening off. I’ll keep you company while you do your paperwork." Now, Kakashi couldn’t possibly wriggle his way from that. Iruka glanced over with a triumphant smile, humming quietly. "Are you worried about me?"

[lighttningstrike]

"If it's okay with you." As usual, how kind (and very perceptive) of him. ...No bother. Soon enough, Kakashi was able to wave off the idea of slipping away if only for the time being. "I'd say I was more curious than worried. I don't think I've ever been worried about you--never had a reason to be. Unless, of course, the children are beginning to overwhelm you. So even Iruka-sensei has his limits, is that it?" he replied casually.

purplehairedanbu:

”…What do you mean?”

"Then you aren't here for official matters?" Kakashi's head remained tilted downward, his lone eye looking at her with expected calm. Some time has passed since they'd last seen one another, hasn't it? "It's not every day we have the time or reason to meet. I expected something happened."
