    Summary

    Shino’s beetles were crawling over Naruto’s arms, more visible than usual as the blond had taken his jacket off and hung it over the back of his chair. It was damaged from Sasuke’s fire again and smelled strongly of smoke. Kiba eyed the beetles like he always did and finally asked the question he’d been keeping in for weeks. “Why are you so comfortable around them?”
    Naruto looked once again baffled. It was a familiar expression for the boy. He looked down at the beetles marching in circles over his skin and then said, “They’re normal, right? His bugs don’t even bite or anything!”
    “They’re normal for me, yes,” Shino said. “My clan are the holders of this particular species of parasitic beetle.”
    Naruto just shrugged, “Whatever, I like your bugs a lot more than mine.”
    Shino cocked his head to the side, “What?” he asked.

    OR
    Naruto's apartment is horrible and unhealthy and Shino realizes just how bad a spot Naruto is in. He can't just stand by and let it continue, can he?

    Summary

    In the sterile, cookie-cutter world of Privet Drive, Harry Potter is a "freak" whose only refuge is the dirt beneath his fingernails.

    While his relatives, the Dursleys, view his forced gardening as a menial chore, Harry finds a rare, rhythmic peace in the soil. This quiet obsession leads him to the school library, where he bypasses children’s stories for heavy tomes on Botany, Eastern Medicine, and Toxicology. He begins to see the world not as a suburban wasteland, but as a vast, living pharmacy of potential cures and lethal secrets.

    Or where Harry learns to harness and develop his potential earlier, with the assistance of an old lady who has just moved into the peaceful neighborhood of Privet Drive.

    Summary

    Shikamaru thought he had practically everything under control. Being so intelligent was both a blessing and a curse. Almost everything was predictable if one had the necessary knowledge and a prodigious mind like his. Ino was predictable, Chouji was predictable, his friends were predictable, even his mother and, to a lesser extent, his father were predictable.

    In the silence of his room, he stared at the ceiling with boredom, wondering if he would ever find something or someone that could pull him out of his monotonous lethargy, just as his father had seen something special in his mother. Perhaps he would have to toss a coin into the stupid wishing well and pray like a fool for something to change in his life.

    What Shikamaru ironically didn’t know was that his wish was about to come true sooner than expected. For better or worse...
