so does having 600 Shins around remind you of another Shin

“Hmm, another Shin? I don’t recall meeting or remembering anyone else since that name is very common around here that it’s almost impossible to pinpoint exactly who are you talking about. Try to be more specific when asking about someone’s name. And as for the children at the orphanage, they all have their own names so I advise you to address them all to their own names.”

“I know I haven’t always made the right decisions up to now… Whether I was right, or whether I was wrong, may not even matter in the first place. What I do know, is that we are apart. I hate this distance between us. You are my most precious person. I want you back. If you can't be by my side, I will abandon Otogakure to be by yours. I've grown dependent on you. I /need/ you. In the sense of soulmates: I love you.”

(Gotta put this under readmore because I got carried away with my writing and I’m also got into the reply) 

Kabuto then gestures the two to move towards the meeting room and he turns to Urushi and also gestures at him to keep eye on the children playing in the living room.

He then sits down on the chair on the opposite side of the seat in front of him and he unties his hair so that he can fix it since a very creative little girl gave him a nice flower crown to wear earlier before he had to take it off.

As soon as he’s done, his kind yellow serpent-like eyes meets Orochimaru’s who are not so different than his own, “Lor- I mean Orochimaru. We can never guess how our lives will turn out to be if we were to ever make a life changing decision. But I know that there’s one thing about my decision is that I don’t regret any of it, my only regret is that because of my actions in the war, these children are orphaned and have nowhere to go and it’s my responsibility to raise these poor children.”

“What I’m trying to say is that… I can’t go back to Otogakure with you. I thought a lot about this decision before I decided to live here in the Konoha Orphanage. I know that I hurt a lot of people and abandoned a lot of unfinished projects that you had to finish alone. I even know that there are some of your followers who currently don’t have nice things to say about me since they were my former allies. You on the other hand, were the last person I ever wanted to hurt since you and I were so close. In sense, in spite of all of this time, there are moments when I also needed you as well. Which was one of the reasons why I… did this to myself so that I can be close to you when you died so that I can never be separated from you ever again. Sadly, it now serves as a harsh reminder of my mistakes and past that I wish that I could forget.” 

He swallows his spit as he glances at his pale scaled hands and rubs them together for a moment, he’s not sure how to react to Orochimaru’s confession to him, it made him fluster and yet sad as well. “You… love me? The truth is… I think I loved you too. In the beginning when I started to have these feelings a while back before you died and when we had Sasuke with us, I suppressed them because I feared that if I allowed these feelings to arise, you will somehow disappear or even dispose of me like the other followers. And as I feared, the former did happen and I couldn’t comprehend your “death” and I was left alone to confront myself and what I was suppose to do. I guess even you probably sensed that when you were “inside me” and you probably found that out.” 

Tugging his collar for a bit, he nervously sighs as he closes his eyes for a bit before opening them again, “But, the truth is, I don’t… love you like how I used to anymore. After going through the Izanami loops countless of times, I realized that the only place were I was truly happy and who I can be myself was right here all along. When I was with you, I felt conflicted with everything that I did and what you ordered for me to do and I would rationalize and make excuses that it was the right thing to do and how it would benefit me in some way in order to find out who I truly was but despite that, I was unsatisfied and yet I was happy that you were there by my side to help me all the way.” 

He reaches out a hand to touch Orochimaru’s and rubs it gently, “But, just because I don’t love you anymore doesn’t mean that I want you to give up everything. This is the path that you chose to follow and my path is the peaceful path that will help raise the future generation better than how it was before. I’m sorry that it had to be this way for now on but seeing you looking much younger than I last saw you, it seems that you finally achieved immortality… without my assistance. So if you ask me, in achieving your goal, you never needed me after all since you had everything that you wanted now. Just know that despite that you did take advantage of me during my moment of weakness, I wanted to thank you for raising me and keeping me safe from Danzo long enough for me to grow up and realize what I was really looking for.

 Orochimaru, I want you to move on from me and keeping doing what you wanted to do with your life. Even if I’m no longer with you anymore. I want you to be happy just like how I am here. You’re a part of me that I can’t seem to let go and that fact alone is why you’re my… friend.”   Now holds Orochimaru’s hand with both hands and stays that way for a moment before letting Orochimaru’s hand go while giving him Kabuto’s most serene expression he ever had.

(@endlessonions) The Shins have heard that one is supposed to make and give cards with hearts on them on this day. They started out giving them to each other, but thinking about themselves as individuals is weird and they can’t tell most of them apart anyway. So one hands a card to Kabuto. “We’re out of construction paper.”

He smiled gently as one of the children gave him a card and he takes it with his pale hand and observes it,  “That is so sweet of you, thank you very much. All of your handmade cards are beautiful and it’s very thoughtful that you’re giving them to each other. I’ll have Urushi bring more construction paper from the cellar and if there’s none then we’ll simply buy more from the store. There’s nothing to worry about, you can keep as many cards as you wish. Happy Valentine’s Day everyone.” 

He didn’t want to spoil the revelation that it’s supposed to be the women who give the gifts and cards to the men so he’s just going to let them have their fun.

Though unfortunately he’s going to have to do the clean up tonight so he might as well get the trash cans ready to throw away the paper clippings and candy wrappers.

plotted starter for @uchinaro !!

When Sakura asked Ino if she could take care of Sarada for a few couple of days while she was gone on a mission somewhere in Wave country where they didn’t have a medic able to cure the disease that the daimyo’s daughter had. ( They sure heard of Lady Tsunade’s apprentice and demanded that she’d be there in the next few days to attend to the girl’s recovery. ) Without any hesitations, the blonde agreed to give an hand to her friend, thinking that Inojin wouldn’t mind having his comrade at home for a few couple of days. Sai sure wouldn’t mind either. None of them had anything to say about the youngest Uchiha. While waiting for them to arrive, the Yamanaka decided to cook something so when dinner time would come, everything would be ready and all that would be left to do would be to put everything on the table.

Two hours passed before she heard soft knocks at the door and it’s with a wide smile and kind blue eyes that Ino opened the front door, facing the raven haired kunoichi. “ You can go and place your bag in the living room, we will have a sleepover in there tonight if that’s okay with you. “ After telling Sakura not to worry and that she had everything under control, the blonde closed the door and joined Sarada in the other room. “ Do you want something to eat ? Or drink ? “ All she wanted was to make sure the girl would enjoy her stay at the self proclaimed Auntie Ino.

Would you ever be willing to mentor another ninja?

“That would depend on what they wish to learn. If it’s medical knowledge, then I can give my student some tips as there are other medical knowledge that is not often learned from the medical books. Like, if you have no medical equipment to help someone, you would need to be observing and be ready to improvise as well as be aware that you yourself might get attacked while you’re healing your patients. 

If they wish to learn Sage mode, then I would highly advise against it as the process of going through the necessary changes is not only dangerous but will kill you. And I’m not talking about having to add other people’s DNA in yourself so that you can survive it like I did. I’m talking about the White Snake Sage injecting pure natural energy in you and trying to survive it. I was fortunate, but for others, not everyone is lucky. 

I’m no teacher, but I would probably try to find the time to train them despite that the children at the Orphanage will need me. But as I said, it depends all on the individual. There are Konoha teachers if they simply want to learn the basics.”

She's gonna kill them--that wretch who gave her the dare. But first, Rita had to complete it. With a heated, red-faced glare, she reached up and tangled her fingers in his ponytail, giving it--and therefore him, an ungentle yank in her direction. "It's just a dare." That's said hastily, with an added scowl for emphasis, before she proceeded to use that ponytail like a leash to drag him to her lips. It lasts only for a moment before she's wiping at her face, muttering sourly about 'mouth germs'.

He was in the laundry room until he heard Rita come into the room and he side glances at her, “Oh good. Rita, can you help me with the laundry? Apparantly one of the kids happens to be quite the artist and decided to use all the paint on himself and has gotten his and the other 4 “volunteers” clothing dirty as we-!” 

 He felt a strong tug from his hair and his eyes widen as he assumed that he was being attacked. He turns to Rita with narrowed eyes, “Rita, what the hell are you-?”  

He was cut off the moment her lips touched his, he flinches and he stays very still and silent. He had absolutely shocked by this and when she pulled away, he takes a step back, and he wipes his own lips with his sleeve, he then chuckles a bit as he puts the rest of the dirty clothes in the washer, “A dare huh? well, it’s your fault for going through the dare. I hope you’re happy that you have the time to play games with others. Just don’t go kissing anyone else in front of the kids please.” 

Unknown to Rita, he was also given the same dare but he rejected it at first out of respect for Rita but after what happened a moment ago, he’s definately going to go through with it... 

[thatsneakymedic]

Go kiss Rita Mugenjo, man!

Send “I dare you to kiss…” with a url/name and my muse will have to kiss that person on the lips.

The kind head caretaker blinks at the sudden dare and he takes a moment to think about it. He knows that  Rita would probably let him really have it if he ever does such a thing but then again, it’s only a simple dare right? 

“Alright, I’ll do it. It’s only a game right?”
