Summary
A month after Sakura's Training Mishap (yes, she has an official name for it in her head, it was a traumatising experience), she attends Tenten's birthday party. Summer's just beginning; the breeze blows warm, the days are long, and the clouds float cotton white on bright blue skies. The day is almost as perfect as the company.
But despite the celebrations, Sakura can't help but notice that her Sensei isn't doing as well as he's pretending to be.

Summary
After finding a dog abandoned by the riverside Sakura calls Kakashi-sensei to help her save him, nevermind the fact that they've barely spoken since Sasuke defected and Naruto left the village to train. When Kakashi-sensei decides to adopt the dog, Sakura asks if she can visit him sometimes, and restarts a tentative friendship between her and her ex-sensei.
Team 7 is over, Sakura hasn't seen her teammates in years, and she was never Kakashi-sensei's favourite anyways. So why isn't he treating her like the annoyance she's always believed she was?

Summary
Sakura could do this. She was a shinobi of Konoha, a brave kunoichi. She could do this. It would be fine. Perfectly fine.
She took a deep breath and said in the most normal tone she could muster, "My parents wanted me to invite the three of you to dinner tomorrow night." It still came out a little bit strangled.
In front of her, Sensei grew very still.
"Oh," he finally managed.
*
The Harunos are eager to meet their daughter’s new genin team. Sakura isn’t sure that’s a good idea. Kakashi scrambles to groom his feral-raccoon students into something that won’t send Sakura’s parents running for the hills. Naruto and Sasuke are trying…someone’s best, that’s for sure.

Summary
He warned them. Repeatedly. Kakashi didn’t want a genin team. Kakashi had no idea of what to do with a genin team. He was self-aware enough to know he wasn’t quite right in the head. He should not be trusted with a bunch of children.
But did the Sandaime hear him? No, because the Sandaime wasn’t Minato-sensei and the old man never listened to him. And he went ahead with the brilliant idea of saddling him with his dead sensei’s son, Itachi’s little brother, and a kunoichi who was so much a cannon fodder that she had a literal target on her bright red dress.
He would not be blamed for the shitshow that was about to start.
OR.
Kakashi only knows how to teach three things: survival, assassination, and pretending to be normal. Good thing that's exactly what his cute little genins need to learn. And if they also learned how to be a family in the process, well, that's just a bonus.

Summary
The Arrangement is simple: when a Jonin Instructor is called away on a mission, another one agrees to look after their genin. Asuma is fine with that — until he remembers that Kakashi is an asshole.
Or: Asuma has to look after Team Seven and stubbornly refuses to quit smoking.

Summary
He graduated from the Academy at the age of five. Made Chūnin at the age of six. Promoted to Jōnin at ten. By thirteen he’d earned his bingo book entry, his ANBU tattoo and the moniker Copy Nin (Friend Killer).
By fourteen he had lost everyone who had ever mattered to him.
And now at fifteen he’s being told that he is a father.
Like most things on that list, it was being thrust upon him. Unasked for. Unwanted. Albeit quietly, reluctantly, from the somber arms of a girl he didn’t remember from a night he couldn’t remember– one of an endless string of nights that he could not remember.Kakashi is Sakura's father.
For twelve years he gets to forget that fact.
The past always has a way of catching up.- Language:

Summary
Levi craves anything, everything. Whatever it takes to drown out the sound of the rain. Because the shower of water against the window pane always makes him think of that day.
The first few times a storm rolled through the barracks, Levi had found and locked himself in a small closet. He’d slid down to the wooden floor and curled in on himself, wrapping his arms around his knees. It was the same position that he’d assumed in the hallway of the brothel whenever his mother worked, and it was the same position that Kenny had found him in as a child after his mother ultimately died. He stayed like that, rocking himself gently, until the thunder and harsh winds that battered the wooden side of the building passed. But once Erwin got his hands on Levi, those days stopped. Instead of spending the passage of a thunderstorm alone in a confined space made up of panels of stone and wood, Levi now spent them wrapped up in affection – confined by hard muscle and the warmth of another body.
