Naruto who is so attention starved he intentionally puts himself in dangerous situations where people could take advantage of him

[gardensnakeinacan]

Prostitute Naruto not for money (although it doesn’t hurt to get some extra money) but for the physical touch and false sense of love and Kakashi who is the unlucky ANUBU has to deal with that but Naruto is just not stopping so eventually Kakashi is pressured by his teammates (and the hokage) to do something and he decides fuck it I just have to take him up and make him my personal sugar baby bc at this point he just won’t stop and its better for me to be the one who damages any chances of having a relationship bc im awful and it would save him the heart ache of finding out later and then thinking that this means he couldn’t possibly be naruto’s sensei only to come to find out that he is and anyway the brain worms came back

[narutothoughts]

I’m actually obsessing over how awful this would be for everyone involved???

Like Naruto is a child so the first time he goes on a walk at night his ANBU guard don’t really think anything of it besides the fact it’s dangerous and weird that he’d want to.

But then he does it again and, shocker, a creep tries to pull him into an alley to rape him but only manages to grope him before kakashi literally jams his hand through his chest and tears his heart out

They think Naruto will stop after that. He doesn’t. If anything he gets more insistent about it. The first couple of times the guards stop him from leaving but eventually they have to let him go.

This time someone offers him money.

Naruto already agreeing before the guy can tell him how much and clearly has no clue what he’s doing when he just kneels there.

It isn’t technically the type of threat ANBU are supposed to interfere in since Naruto agreed to it and won’t die from it but Kakashi could not give less of a fuck about what he’s “supposed” to be doing when he snaps the guy’s neck just as he’s reaching to undo his belt.

He barely has enough presence of mind to hold onto the corpse so it doesn’t fall forward on the still kneeling child.

His senseis child.

His senseis child who’s trying to sell himself.

Kakashi sneaks money into the kids wallet after that. If he’s having money issues Kakashi could fix that. He leaves a full A-ranks worth of pay but despite Naruto noticing it he still goes out again. And again. And again.

Almost every time Kakashi ends up killing someone so the hokage has to tell him to stop. They can’t keep killing civilians no matter how vile.

His team gets pulled from guarding for two weeks as punishment.

Apparently, that’s more than enough time for another team to let a kid get fucked in a back alley

Kakashi is furious at them and makes his anger known ….but Naruto is happier now. He darts around the village with a smile Kakashi hasn’t seen in years and hums / dances while he makes himself dinner using the step stool with little dogs on it that Kakashi bought him forever ago.

It makes him want to hurl.

The kid couldn’t even reach the top shelves of his cupboards by himself and he was already….

Kakashi destroys several training grounds about it. And tears the other team a new one. And paces the hokages office hissing threats to everyone that touches his senseis son. And is forced to do nothing when the hokage tells him he ordered the team not to interfere. That he’s ordering him not to interfere.

So Kakashi has to watch as Naruto goes out every night, wonders until someone offers him money, and more times than not walks away with a limp.

Kakashi hates it. He can’t deal with it.

But the kid keeps doing it. He won’t stop. The hokage’s tried to talk to him. The guards have tried to keep him at home.

It doesn’t work. The kid goes out of his way to do it.

The hokage tells Kakashi to make it stop. He had hoped Naruto would be scared into not doing it the first time someone actually followed through but that clearly didn’t happen. Then he hoped he’d grow tired of it and the rough treatment. That didn’t happen.

Kakashi goes insane about it.

His team are looking to him to stop it. The hokage is telling him to stop it.

He can’t kill the creeps and nothing short of tying Naruto up would make him stay home.

So Kakashi leaves him more money. He leaves gifts. He leaves food. He leaves notes with little dogs doodled on them.

But it’s only when kakashi himself shows up at the time he usually leaves his apartment that Naruto stops.

Kakashi comes every night that he can for weeks and just talks to him or cooks dinner.

Kakashi knows the kid did it for attention. For skinship and touch.

Kakashi tries to offer him that as much as he can. The kid seems overjoyed at the hugs. The hair ruffles and head pats seem to confuse him but he leans into them anyway.

Sometimes he just lays there with the kid pressed to his side holding him.

Eventually Naruto gets the wrong idea about it.

Kakashi goes to hug him but he reaches for Kakashi’s pants instead.

He can’t help the way he flinches back at the sight of his sensei’s son trying to do that with him and has to leave before he breaks down into a panic attack in front of him.

The ANBU guard stationed a few apartments down end up following Naruto out of his apartment that night.

Kakashi comes back the next night, sees the bruises on the kids knees, and curses himself. Of course he’d start doing it again. He must have thought kakashi wouldn’t come back.

So he stays and acts like nothing happened.

But then Naruto KEEPS trying with him and lets someone fuck him every time he pushes him away

One day naruto comes back with a split lip and a huge bruise on his hip. Kakashi says fuck it. He’s going to hell anyway.

If he has to offer more touch for Naruto to stop going to anyone else for it then he’d suck it up and push down the nausea.

He tries to ignore when it stops making him feel sick. He fails.

@abx5 how does it feel to have single handedly saved the lives of thousands?

#put it in the deepest and coldest part of the freezer for a few days before dealing with it #it wont save you but it will minimize the stench

[kedreeva]

#if it's plastic throw it away#the mould is in the plastic now I'm sorry it's ok just throw it out#if it's glass do the freezer trick and clean it (via @sleepymccoy)

I feel like this will save a few more people.

the upside of ADHD is that it makes you a fucking genius

the downside is that you don't get to decide when and for how long you're a genius.

[foone]

Or what you are going to be a genius about.

You have a big work project?

Nah. You're now a genius at making boardgames. For 7 hours.

If you’ve been wondering why getting a dragon as your wizardly familiar is so often discouraged, please understand that it isn’t so much that alchemical experiments and curious dragons don’t mix, it’s that they WANT to mix SO badly.

You cannot say that a top grossing artist is "feral" or making you "feral." You are listening to the Billboard Top 40. You are very domesticated.

Stupid ass take. The fame of the artist doesn't define how it makes you feel. Do you not see me go hogwild eating potatoes, easily one of the top 5 most well known vegetables

Everybody say "thank you south america" for the humble potato

Actually let's get specific with it

Everybody say thank you indigenous people of present-day southern Peru and extreme northwestern Bolivia from 7-10,000 years ago for the humble potato

I feel that we as a fandom are not being sufficiently appreciative of Tony’s explanation of the fight with Ebony Maw being “He’s from space. He came here to steal a necklace from a wizard.”

[copperbadge]

What I love about that moment is that it shows just how good a communicator Tony is in a combat situation and how accustomed he is, by now, to command. He knew Peter wouldn’t blow him off if he said something ludicrous, so he gave him exactly what he would need to understand the situation in two bare bones sentences. He said less than a haiku. He didn’t even have to say which side he and Peter were on, because “from space” and “came to steal” implied that information.

And then when they actually got hold of Strange, all he had to say was “That’s the wizard” and Peter knew a) exactly what was going on and b) exactly what to do.

This was so fun to do. I have only made a lineup once before, and I like how I can see my improvement here, as well as the evolution of my style for them.

Design notes↓

Prints | Commissions | Support me on Ko-Fi; early access drawings + WIP + commission discounts

Maedhros: I talk a lot about Maedhros and Himring´s fashion here - black is an expensive colour to produce, which is why I think it is sought after, with white, in Himring, since it is dark most year round, most residents pick one other colour that stands out, Maedhros here choosing the colour of his house, since Himring is hostile for a lot of plants, botanical embroidery and jewelry are a status symbol. The clothes are shorter than other Noldor clothes to better move through snow.

Maglor: Maglor, as a bard, can wear longer, more impractical clothes in his day-to-day. Clothes from The Gap have a less dramatic shape and usually lighter colours than clothes for Himring, as well as a division between colours, thus, Maglor wears red, grey blue, and yellow.

Celegorm: As a hunter of Himlad, Celegorm doesn´t really dress up in Noldor court robes, and instead ends up with something between the Sindar and the Hunt of Oromë. He wears grey clothes in different shades with plant motifs on them to better blend in, and the clothes is cut so as not to restrict his movement on foot or horse.

Caranthir: I HC Caranthir as the richest of the brothers, which is also why he has so much jewelry, and so many textile techniques in his clothes - his clothes are meant to look heavy, and mirror Thargelion's wooden climate, with the bear fur, and dark colours.

Curufin: Curufin´s clothes are very clothes to Nargothrond style, but a bit even in the cut, with more layers visible. He is wearing a lot of contrasting colours in his clothes, as well as jewelry that is both silver and gold, to stand out.

Amras: I like to think the Ambarussa was spending a lot of time hunting in their youth in Valinor, but when coming to Beleriand, only Amras kept on exploring the wild and made friends with many of the Avari, which is what his outfit is inspired by, a mix of Avari clothes and Noldor.

Amrod: I go with the crispy Amrod version here, and after the insident I HC he had a lot of chronic pain so he became more of a scholar, which is why he can wear so long robes, also to make up for his look I like to think he did a lot out of his clothes, making sure it was the finest, as well as his jewelry.

So, I've talked before about how trying to assemble all the events leading up to and following the Trojan war onto a single timeline doesn't really make sense. (The Greeks didn't care and the events were patchedworked together over centuries of additions. It's fine.)

So, for example, the wedding where Paris has to pick "The Fairest" and gets promised Helen? That the marriage of Achilles' parents. And Achilles is at least a young man (older teen? He can still successfully disguise himself as a girl, so probably not growing a beard yet) when the war starts, so a decent gap of time.

And all the art always just shows everyone as like, lithe 20 somethings all the time, but, just....imagine.

Imagine that Paris is *young*, 10 or 12 maybe, when he's chosen as the mortal to settle this debate over the apple. He's just a kid, the youngest of Priams 50 sons, sent to die in the woods and raised as a shepard in secret to try to avoid a prophesy that he will be the end of Troy.

And here is pretty Aphrodite, promising him that when he's old enough to marry, when he's accepted as a proper prince of Troy, she'll give him the most beautiful mortal woman alive. It's a sacred promise.

But Helen hasn't been born yet. Aphrodite doesn't know- doesn't know the Zeus will father a mortal princess whose marriage will be a political crisis- whose marriage will need to be sealed with a treaty so that her hand won't be the prize of one war after another after another (what king wouldn't want a daughter of Zeus at his side, after all? Helen is kidnapped before she's old enough to wed by Theseus, yes that Theseus, for exactly that reason.) Aphrodite doesn't know that by the time this young boy becomes a young prince, Helen will be newly married (married, likely, fairly young, to stop any more kidnapping attempts.)

But a sacred oath is a sacred oath.

And Paris grows up. And Helen is born. And Paris is recognized as a prince. And Helen is married. And maybe Paris had forgotten all about that strange dreamy afternoon when he was asked an impossible question and promised a fairy tale when he was a lonely little boy. And Helen, safely married, a young mother, finally feels safe knowing that she is safe from being kidnapped again because a treaty binds her marriage.

But a sacred oath is a sacred oath. And a prophesy is a prophesy.

[fandomsandfeminism]

Also, whether or not Paris *knows* he is one of Priams sons and prophesied to be the fall of Troy- you have a boy who is offered a great Army (a life of war), to be a great King (all of his older brothers dead before him), or....the love of a pretty girl.

Paris tried to choose peace. He tried to choose happiness.

How could he have known?

The difference between English and Ukrainian for "adventure" is... Well, first off, you don't go on an adventure in Ukrainian - you either go seeking it or it happens to you. In both cases, the word can be easily exchanged for "trouble", and often the meaning won't change that much. All of that to say, the literal translation of formal "road accident" is "vehicular road adventure". Take my hand, let's go on an adventure of filling out the insurance forms together.
