Naruto's Good Faith VS Kawaki's Upbringing

Good morning, yes, I'm Borutoposting again.

One of my favorite things about the introduction of Kawaki into the series and his eventual hyper obsession over Naruto is how real it is.

Naruto did not expect and was not prepared- and would have never been prepared for how attached and ultra protective Kawaki would become of him. It's not Naruto's fault, nor is it Kawaki's, no one was equipped to deal with this correctly. It reached the only natural outcome it could.

Kawaki's life sucked. It really just did! Out of many characters he definitely had the right to excuse his behavior on his upbringing- he literally did not know anything different. His biological Father used him as a punching bag, sold him off for cash, and then his new "father figure" Jigen experimented on him and ruthlessly trained him to become his next vessel. There was literally no love in his life, Jigen reminded him of this every chance he could. Jigen is not even an effective manipulator (like Orochimaru was), Kawaki hated every second he spent there and had no loyalty for Jigen. He directly expresses in conversation with Boruto that he wishes the experiment was a failure and he had died.

So Kawaki just has...no one! No one at all he can trust. Everyone is an enemy to him, and it's not until Naruto holds him and tells him he's safe after Kawaki accidentally triggers himself that his feelings for Naruto begin to change.

For the first time in his life, he has a Father figure who cares. Who genuinely cares about his health, well-being, and about forming relationships with other people (seeing as he wants him and Boruto to get along as well). Despite Kawaki consistently testing him (because it has to be a farce right? I'm just some punk nobody--), Naruto never resorts to physical violence to "punish" or "correct" Kawaki. There's plenty of chidings for him misbehaving and starting fights, but not a single blow.

I'd say that's great strides for a man who very often used to boast about wanting to break every bone in Sasuke's body to drag him back to Konoha. I like this development. He knows Kawaki needs a gentle hand and a figure he can trust implicitly. He gives that figure to Kawaki, and it works.

But Kawaki doesn't just go from 0 to 100. He goes from 0 to 1000. There was never going to be any reality where Kawaki forms a normal Father/Son attachment to Naruto. He became Kawaki's everything, and Naruto was not prepared for the intensity of Kawaki's attachment and desire to protect him.

And nothing could be done about that! Naruto didn't do anything wrong, he treated Kawaki incredibly well. He gave him the security and shelter that Kawaki craved. But he- nor anyone else, was not ready that Kawaki would go that far.

To us readers- the writing is on the wall. We could see it from a mile away. But to the characters within, they just didn't have any tools to predict it nor deal with it, nor prevent Kawaki's attachment from progressing to the point he unintentionally used Eida's omnipotence to completely rewrite everyone's history of his and Boruto's positions in their lives.

Kawaki's transition makes perfect sense. It really wasn't gonna go any other way. I'm so glad it was written that way.

i am sorry for no things

#oh wow kakashi and sasuke are the same height as adults #i tell myself while i make kakashi bigger #esuposting

Saved a rooster's life today. Showed him my Sasuke things

#you know as you do #esuposting

1. I'm surprised you get so many NS requests since you've been saying for so gucking long you don't draw NS

2. Imagine Oro teaching Sas how to do eyeliner and lipstick ( I mean, I know Oro does his eyeliner so well and ik cursed mark Sasuke wears that nice purple lipstick

Not a request. Just wanted to send this to you 👉👈

For #1, I think it's because the link to my about is old-fashioned. From what I hear, most Tumblr users are mobile bound, and most themes are also mobile based, so things like links in custom themes just don't seem as accessible. Maybe I'll make a link in my description and I think it'll help. The anon later came back to clarify they didn't intend for it to be shippy, but the wording is still sparking red flags for me, so I don't think I will fulfill that request. Maybe a commission, but also, I don't think it would feel good to make someone draw something you -know- they don't like, even if it's for payment.

For #2, these ideas are cute, but something about them always bothers me. Is it common in fandom nowadays to assume Orochimaru's markings are the result of applying makeup? Is it a little fandom in-joke I'm not getting? This is a genuine question for me. Orochimaru's marks are present when he's a child, teenager, and adult, and they are also present in the male body at the end of the 1st part of Naruto. They're still present in Boruto, too. I don't believe they're in any way applied on purpose. He was just born with them. Same with Sasuke's lips in his curse mark mode. Like the 4 point Star on his face, it's clear that it's just a marking/body change due to the curse mark, and not him stopping to apply lipstick.

This isn't me trying to be a downer or me trying to say men can't wear makeup in case someone reads it that way. Just that when it comes to Orochimaru and Sasuke, those seem like odd choices to me, their makeup is either natural markings or transformation based markings. Sage mode Naruto is transformation based, etc. I can't get behind the makeup thing for born/transformation based markings and if it's a fandom in-joke, I honestly don't get it.
