    Summary

    Haruno Sakura has a problem.

    Her new team sucks, her sensei's a freak who keeps bullying her and the rest of her team, and no one will tell her why her 'research' (hero worship) regarding the Nindaime is wrong. Also animating corpses is apparently illegal?

    In which Haruno Sakura accidentally summons Tobirama Senju after trying to test out a chakra theory he had written down in his forbidden jutsu. Too bad for her and everyone around her, she just got herself a new ghostly sensei.

    In which Hatake Kakashi thinks his little pink genin is too cute and so silly, especially every single time she shrieks when he catches her reading forbidden, stolen, and illegal research papers from the Second Hokage.

    In which Uchiha Sasuke wished he had failed the academy rather than dealing with the rest of his teammates. Seriously. Are special jounin supposed to act like this? Screw being better than Itachi, he was going to kill that silver haired bastard.

    In which Uzumaki Naruto has no clue what's going on, but he'll do his best to drag his team together. More specifically, his routine of going to the Hokage tower to burn Sakura's resignation letter every week.

    Summary

    Sakura is born in the heart of the flower district.

    No father waited outside. No clan name to greet her. No elders to speak blessings, no family crest stitched into swaddling cloth.

    “Haruno” is what Mebuki writes on her academy form.

    It’s still not her name.

    Sakura is the daughter of a prostitute.

    Summary

    “You’re not my father.”

    “I know that. Do you know that?”

    Sakura’s laugh was cruel at the edges, “My father would have wept if he knew what I had done for this country.”

    She tilted her head onto her shoulder to look at him carefully; a rueful look painted across her face. “I see no tears in your eyes. So, yes. I know you’re not my father.”

    ***

    Little clanless Haruno Sakura, with her exotic pink hair and alluring jade eyes.

    What do you think the Hokage saw in her? A little girl graduating, ready for D-ranks? Or a tool to be used for the betterment of Konoha? A child no one would notice the absence of.

    Haruno Sakura, from a no-name civilian merchant clan, with no connections other than the ones she burned away for the affections of a boy who would never love her. A tool to be used.

    For Konoha.

    Summary

    Jason Todd grew up with a fundamental fear of being seen. Not in the sense of shyness, but in the sense of shame. He supposed, if he wished to contemplate the fear’s origins, he might start where most tragedies do:
    The house he grew up in.
    Where the act of wanting was as good as a death sentence to that desire.
    He supposed he might even make an argument for the statement “people become what they are called”. He thinks that might have some merit, looking back.
    What he fears most, (like most other people), is how obvious it is to others. The fear itself.
    He wonders if they can see it.

    or

    Thanks to a rogue meta, the batfam gets to watch Jason's memories like a movie; and Jason just really wants a family again. But you cannot be loved if you aren't known, and well... if circumstances provide? might as well take the chance, right?
