Sakura Haruno Fanfiction!!

Started: 2024.05.01

Last Updated: 2024.05.10

Total Works: 43

Okay, I absolutely adore Sakura as a character, but I do wish that we got a bit more of her just being awesome and progressing as a ninja. Generally speaking, I prefer multichapter (finished) fics, so that is what this list is primarily going to contain. This list contains my some of my favorite Sakura centric fanfiction, so everyone can enjoy these masterpieces too!!

Survival of the fittest - cywscross || ao3 || T || shikasaku || canon divergent || one shot

Sakura is thirteen, still a Genin, lost in the middle of Earth Country, lugging an unconscious Chuunin around, and so far beyond scared that she’s moved right on to pissed off.

AHHHH this one is soooo good!!! I know I literally just said that this list is mainly going to be multi-chapter fics, but survival of the fittest is great!

The Ocean is Deep and Dark - Pleasedial123 || ao3 || M || canon divergent || complete

Gato doesn't trust Zabuza to get the job done. Instead he sends a team of thugs to ambush the Bridge Builder on his return to Wave. Team Seven, exhausted from their fight and Kakashi still unconscious, is separated. Sakura gets captured. Terrible things happen to pretty girls in the hands of men like Gato and his thugs. But Zabuza puts his claim in first and suddenly Sakura isn't the prisoner of a civillian businessman and his hired muscle. Suddenly she's Momichi Zabuza's.

I won't lie, I have a soft spot for fics that take place during the land of waves arc, especially when they focus on Sakura's growth. I love how Zabuza was portrayed in this as although we wasn't necessarily a bad guy, he wasn't a good one wither. He simply has morals. Sakura's fear in this is also quite raw and eye opening as it covers a theme that isn't ever covered in the original series. The reality is, the world is not kind to women, and a captured young female ninja is most certainly going to be at some untasteful risks. Oh, team 7's concern was also pretty touching ngl.

Satori (Between the Lines) - Jaylene || ffn || gen || T || AU || complete

While attending the Academy, Sakura's field experience assignment with the Konohagakure Intelligence Division ends up being more valuable than she'd ever guess.

Pulling my weight - itsthechocopuff || ao3/ffn || shikasakucho || T || AU || complete

During their mission to Wave, Sakura realises how behind she is in her training and decides to do something about it. She vows to become a shinobi her Village and her teammates can respect and depend on. But Sakura has always been a paper-ninja, so her first stop for inspiration is the library where she finds unexpected help in the form of one very bored tokujo who quickly goes on to become an integral part of her life. Soon, despite the neglect of her sensei and all odds seemingly against her, Sakura's destiny begins to change.

Kill Your Heroes - TheLightAtLastAndAlways || ao3/ffn || T || canon divergent || ongoing

It's time to stop waiting for other people to save you. A story about fear, resilience, and Sakura.

I feel like anyone that is a fan of Sakura centric fics has read this one and it's for a good reason! Probably one of my all time favorites as I love how Sakura's emotions are handled in this and simply the fact that she is so driven by fear and just the will to keep surviving. It's an aspect of the original series that just was not addressed imo. They are essentially child soldiers, so I wish that we got to witness more moments of vulnerability from the young ninja. Unfortunately, it probably won't be finishing anytime soon.

Stumble - writer168 || ao3/ffn || gen || T || time travel AU || complete

Sakura wanted to die. Sasori was fine with staying dead. But it seemed fate had other plans for them, because when they both wake up younger with blood pulsing through their veins, they had to remember how to live again. Time Travel AU

We need more fics with Genma and Ibiki!!!!

Five Petals - PrecariousSauce || ao3 || sasusaku || gen || canon divergent || complete

Several things happen all at once in less than a minute’s time. Sakura’s elbow slams into Sasuke’s side from an angle he doesn’t anticipate, sending him tumbling end over end off the branch. Sasuke rights himself just a second too late and without checking where he’s going to land– When he does his knee twists, he feels a lightning bolt of pain shoot from his sole to his head, his leg gives out. And Orochimaru’s teeth sink down to the gum in Sakura’s shoulder.

Blind - ObsidianSickle || ffn || sasusaku || T || canon divergent || complete

It was almost time, Orochimaru was going to take his body as a vessel. He hated being used...he refused to be used. With that thought, he took the kunai in his hand and slashed across his eyes.

I won't lie, Sakura is kinda weak in this one and it got pretty cheesy, but I still enjoyed it.

A Twist in Time - wolf08 || ffn || sasusaku || T || time travel AU || complete

With Konoha on the verge of destruction, Sakura is sent on a last-resort mission to save her world by travelling to the past. Join her in coping with her old body's shortcomings, testing the natural laws of time, falling in love all over again, and rediscovering who she is.

With Every Beat - halfdemonfan || ffn || sasusaku || M || canon divergent || incomplete

Pain can come in various forms. Sakura had suffered all of them; but with the war raging on she found the torture would continue.

Ghosts - ElegiesforShiva || ffn || sausaku || M || AU || incomplete

In love and loss, it often comes back to family, and Team 7 had always been fated, hadn't they? Deny it as she may, Sakura finds her heart strung to them with an uncanny reverence and the weight of their ghosts. Sakura-centric. Heavy, heavy angst. Slow burn Sasusaku. Canon pairings. Lots of friendship feels. Eventual (consensual) lemon.

I won't lie, this one is pretty dark, so definitely read the TWs if that applies to you.

Your Move, Instigator (draw your weapon and hold your tongue) - Laysan_albatross || ao3|| AU || complete

“We are still under wartime policy,” the recruiter had told her parents. He had an envelope in his hand. He sounded sorry. “She has two parents who are successful ninjas. We would be remiss to overlook her potential based upon that alone.” The Third Shinobi War never ended. Konoha needs more soldiers, grabbing anyone who can fight, especially those who can't say no.

You guys, I love this one to death. It's definitely a darker take on the Naruto universe, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I've been looking for more like this fic where the civilian born shinobi are deemed as more expendable (thrown into war prematurely).

Find Your Place (whatever it takes) - Dovey || ao3 || AU || incomplete

The war lasts longer than in canon, and has only just ended. While most of the 'Konoha 12' are clan heirs and thus protected from having to go to war prematurely, Sakura is from a civilian family, with naturally advanced chakra control, and thus is thrown immediately onto the frontlines. Now she's on a genin team in peacetime, and she's struggling to figure out how to live when she's not constantly at risk of dying. Team seven bonds in new weird ways, The Uchiha are actually all dead except for Sasuke (including war-hero itachi) who's got a chip on his shoulder the size of Konoha, Naruto isn't the kyuubi container and he finds Sakura kinda scary. Sakura would just like to have a hobby.

This one I actually have not read (I hope to read), but "your move, instigator" was inspired by this one!

Icarus (protect the flames) - ginoeh || ao3 || canon divergent || incomplete

When Sakura realizes that playing little girl and flunking combat training had probably been a gross miscalculation on her part, she’s stranded in a rickety home in a run down country with an unconscious sensei. Sakura isn’t sure if she can make up for that mistake before it kills her or her team but she sure as hell will give it her best shot. She really couldn’t have known that falling victim to Hatake Kakashi’s unique attempts at teaching would open up another can of worms entirely.

team. - waterpllar || ao3 || AU || complete

She’s under Neji's command, which apparently means she’s under the Hyuuga’s command. The Hyuuga’s role is on the frontlines, but Neji must be special for a kid from the branch family, because they mostly send him and Sakura out after the big battles are done, to pick off the wounded, and burn bodies. Sakura kind of wishes she had someone to keep her from the big fights, too. Her job is with Neji, taking back kekkei genkai and retrieving important people’s bodies, but she has other assignments, too. She’s given a dull kunai and told to go through the battlefield, dodging blows and jutsus from friend and foe, slashing at whatever isn’t wearing a Konoha headband. (the third shinobi war doesn't end, dragging on for years. konoha is running out of troops, and unimportant children in the academy with even a modicum of talent are snatched up to the warfront. sakura, unfortunately, is one of them. so is neji.)

Yay, a fic inspired by "your move, instigator" so of course I gotta put it on the list!! Although, I gotta say that the ending was rather disappointing imo. There was so much potential, but the author admitted to not wanting to continue the story so it was cut short. Hopefully more works of this nature will come to light!

Cold Green Eyes - Wolfgang_in_the_Stars || ao3 || AU || complete

Haruno Sakura is 12 years old when she realises she has to make some changes in her life or else she'll die. Three years ago, Sakura split herself. Inner took her trauma, her pain, her violence, and Outer took the rest. If she wants to survive, if she wants to become a strong kunoichi, she'll have to accept herself as a whole. It's not as easy as it sounds.

Home is Where the Heart is - DeepPoeticGirl || ffn || sasusaku || T || blank period || canon divergent || complete

And with every moment together, they get just a little closer, a little more comfortable with each other. Fall a little more in love. Post-war. Pre-epilogue.

In Times of Peace - SouthSideStory || ffn || sasusaku || M || blank period || canon divergent || complete

The war is over, and like Konoha, Team 7 has rebuilt itself from the ground up. Everything has changed, but Sasuke and Sakura remain much the same. Eleven years, she thinks, is a long time to be in love.

Ripples - Yellow Mask || ffn || sasusaku || T || canon divergent || complete

Following a botched mission, Sakura is made a slave by Sound, a position that could very well alter the future…especially concerning a certain familiar missing-nin.

I thought this fic was pretty interesting as we get to see Sasuke under Orochimaru's command.

The Pack Survives - ihopethelightwillshineupon || ao3 || team 7 || canon divergent || complete

When a simple C-rank mission turns into a straight-up nightmare, the members of Team Seven narrowly escape with their lives. They end up stuck in the middle of nowhere, each of them injured and forced to rely on one another for help. They’ve only been a team for a couple of weeks, still distant from one another, still trying hard to prove themselves. But when they’re all hurt and struggling desperately to survive, they have no choice but to lower their walls. Stranded far away from the village, Team Seven fights to get back home safely – but with help impossibly far away, with their food supplies shrinking and with their injuries slowing them down, their journey becomes more difficult with every step. In the wake of their struggle, though, their bonds grow steadily stronger.

Sakura is not the main character in this one as it it more focused on team 7 as a whole, but she still has some great development!

Return & Rehash - SpaceNugget11 || ffn || sasusaku || M || time travel AU || incomplete

"You," Sakura snarled with bared teeth. Sasuke gagged for air, clutching at her forearm, but she only pressed harder into him. Her green eyes crackled, and she wished she could burn him alive with the heat of her anger.

An Inch of Gold - KuriQuinn || ffn || sasusaku || T || time travel AU || complete

Team 7 is sent on a mission to investigate a disturbance outside of the village, where they encounter an unconscious girl in a crater. The mysterious Sarada insists she's a shinobi from the Hidden Leaf trying to rescue her teammates. When the team discovers she possesses a Sharingan, things become even more unbelievable. [Part of the Legacy of Fire Series]

Honestly, anything by this author is great! The writing captures the personalities of the characters so well and I'm a complete sucker for the whole Sarada meets Sakura and Sasuke trope!! Sasusaku is super cute in this (while being realistic) and I love how Kakashi is such a shipper.

Trial by Ninja - jacobk || ffn || T || canon divergence || complete

To become great, one must overcome great opponents. A moment of inspiration during the chuunin exam puts Sakura on the path to greatness, whether she likes it or not.

Loyalty - TrueRadicalDreamer || ffn/ao3 || M || AU || complete

A ten-year-old Haruno Sakura is put in the worst situation of her young life - being forced into working as a spy for an enemy village. As she navigates the mores of her new world, Sakura begins to realize that she is changing as a person and that she may not recognize who it is she is becoming. A story about personal responsibility, about the duties of a ninja to their village, and about the true meaning of loyalty. (Pre-Skip, Unapologetically Sakura-centric, 13 years in the writing)

Ok, a little note here is that this fic is actually being rewritten. I read the old version and loved it (the one I linked), but there is a new one coming out on ao3 although I think it might incomplete. Nonetheless, I HIGHLY recommend this one as I think it's great and pleasantly dark!

Five Kingdoms for the Dead - EvilIsARelativeTerm || ffn || M || AU || complete

After the Forest of Death, Sakura comes to realize that being weak is no longer an option. However, she finds that change is sometimes painful and that truth doesn't always come easy. Luckily, she'll have some help along the way.

Two words: SO GOOD!!!! It made me wish that we got more of Sakura and Neji doing missions together.

It's Just That Any One of Us Is Half Without Another One Is You - Branch || ao3 || AU || complete

An AU in which all the character development of part one gets its due: Kakashi finds another way, Sasuke does not leave the Leaf, Itachi remains a villain, no one is a carbon copy of a previous generation, Sakura grows up to be terrifying, Sasuke finds his way back to family, and Naruto wins all hearts. Featuring Team Seven fluff, filling in the time-skip, and a rather different second half. Drama, Angst, Romance, Fluff, Action, Occasional Porn.

I Know Those Eyes - roomfishing || ffn || sasusaku || T || AU || complete

Seven years following Sasuke’s disappearance, Sakura, now a medical-nin, goes on an ANBU assassination mission. SasuSaku. Contains spoilers, PG-13 for mild V, L, S.

A Lesson in Humility - aobears || ao3 || itasaku || AU || incomplete

It's a fierce desire to protect, to possess. What's Sakura's will stay Sakura's, until she says otherwise. Where Sakura gets sick of being the weak link.

These Eyes of Mine (I Can See) - tsukuyue || ao3 || gen || time travel AU || complete

They've lost. Naruto was dead, killed at Kaguya’s hands. Along with him died any illusions of hope that they could win. They couldn’t win, but perhaps they wouldn’t need to. In attempts to stop the Fourth Shinobi War from ever occuring, Sakura is sent back in time to the moment of her birth. Protecting the people she cared about would be much easier if she knew all the facts. OR Where Sakura can see the dead, and Danzō deserves to die.

Little Piece of Heaven - Leanne Ash || ffn || sasusaku || T || canon divergent || complete

"I don't do it because I think you're weak! I do it because—! Because I… just… Never mind." Years later it finally happened. Unfortunately, she just didn't care anymore. A story of love and irony, where one is oblivious… and the other is Sasuke.

Dessert Blossom - Aphiria || ffn || kankusaku || T || AU || complete

Sakura’s accepted a mission to help Suna with an unknown illness that has affected a handful of its villagers. And all Kankurou has to do is watch over her while she’s in his city. It should be easy. Right?

Despite me being a sasusaku fan, I've always been a sucker for kankusaku every since she healed him in shippuden, so this was a nice read (a bit cheesy but fun).

Two Minds (are better than one) - Lesemaus16 || ao3 || gen || AU || complete

Tobirama doesn't generally object to being reborn. He does object to being stuck in the mind of a little girl, though. Sakura grows up with a grumpy voice in her head, telling her to train more. Tobirama's influence on Sakura might very well change the story. Or maybe not, who knows.

Tobirama is such a great character (so refreshing) and his interactions with Sakura in this are gold! I hope one day Kishimoto will release some side stories about him and other characters from his time as we really don't know that much about them tbh.

Expedient - SwiftKick || ffn || T || AU || complete

Konoha and Iwa sign a truce and agree to an Exchange Program between recently promoted genin to "bolster village relations." Fortunately, if anything were to go wrong, Haruno Sakura was just average enough to risk losing.

Wow, this one is another all time favorite of mine! I didn't have high expectations going into it, but this fic is truly great. Deidara is such a fun character and I really enjoyed Sakura's growth in this.

The Nearest Star - summersirius || ao3 || minasaku || canon divergent || complete

The quest for strength comes from the spirit or in this case, the soul. —Minato/Sakura

I quite honestly though that I was going to hate this because of the pairing, but it was surprisingly very well done! Also, Sakura is a total badass in this.

Trials of Change - Espoiretreves || ao3 || gen || time travel AU || complete

Haruno Sakura made a promise. Looking in the eyes of her Shisou and the reanimated Hokage, she took on the most important mission of her life. Go back in time and try to prevent the 4th Shinobi War. Now, Sakura is back to her 5-year-old body, with all the knowledge and haunting memories of the future. She vows to keep her precious people safe and stop certain events from happening, without altering the timeline too much. The trials her emotions and logic put her through have her questioning her very existence, but for the sake of peace, she has to push forward. No matter what.

This one is a really good non-massacre fic where we get to see Shisui!

Dirt and Ashes, or: The One-and-a-Half Body Problem - Tozette || ao3 || gen || M || canon divergent || complete

The invasion of Konoha during the chuunin exam didn't fail. Team seven is broken, people are dead, and Sakura is hurt and frightened and a very long way from home. Alternative summary: In which Sakura carries half of Hidan across two countries, leaving a trail of blood, bodies, and other people's legs.

This one is pretty gross tbh, but I highly recommend!

Obito-Sensei - Ser Serendipity || ffn || gen || M || AU || ongoing

During the fateful mission to the Kannabi Bridge, Obito is too slow, and Kakashi ends up paying the price with his life. Years later, Elite Jonin Mangekyou no Obito is placed in charge of a very familiar genin team, determined to keep them safe in a world at peace. Or: Obito surviving wrecks everything, in twenty steps or less.

Time Flies Like An Arrow - Katlou303 || ao3 || gen || K || time travel AU || complete

Sakura traveled back in time with the intent of changing everything, but something went wrong, and now she's four years old having nightmares about impossible monsters and losing friends she has yet to meet.

Labyrinthine - FM_White || ao3 || itasaku || M || AU || complete

ItaSaku (Post Uchiha Massacre) AU: Some things are destined to be. It just takes a couple of tries to get there. ItaSaku. Light KakaSaku.

I actually really liked how this was done as team 7 is still a family, Sasuke didn't lose his mind, Itachi picked a much more respectable path imo, and the characters are all adults.

The Misadventures of Kakashi and the Girl From No Where - Goldfishlover73 || ao3 || kakasaku || M || time travel AU || complete

When a girl called Sakura seemingly falls in the sky, Kakashi is skeptical. Far more skeptical than the rest of Team Minato are. War is approaching quickly and this strange girl is leaving more questions than answers in her wake, Kakashi must decide where his trust and loyalties lie in a constantly changing world.

Told in the perspective of Kakashi in his youth! Really interesting take and I love how strong Sakura is in this in addition to the fact that we get to see a different side of Kakashi that we aren't used to.

The Sixth Shadow - thinknicht || ao3 || kakasaku || M || AU - eventual time travel AU || ongoing

No one seemed to find it odd when little Haruno Sakura threw herself smack dab in front of a Chidori and Rasengan. Not even Kakashi stopped to wonder. (He really should have.)

Maybe I'm just late to the game, but this is a true hidden gem! Such an interesting take on how the events of the series could have unfolded. I especially love Sakura's drive in this in addition to the political aspects. However, be warned that Kakashi is an absolute HATER (in the beginning), but he gets better! Also, be warned that the fic is super long....

Hell's Radiance - Angel of the Godless || ffn || M || AU || complete

AU Fate can be a twisted thing, some only exist in hate. Sakura was one of those, a container of the most feared demon in history, hated by her village. Lost in the darkness, she tried to find a reason for living.

Will Of Stone - sadfascist || ffn || M || AU || complete

Timeskip: Sakura travels to the Earth Country to take the Iwa chuunin exam. Waiting for her there is a place of ancient wonder… violent trials… star-crossed love… and a conspiracy that threatens world peace itself. An epic novel. COMPLETE.

Another really long fic.

——————

october 10, 2022

luke and jaylen have been dating for almost five months now, and jaylen has never told luke about his ex boyfriend, carl.

luke walked into jaylens dorm room. “hey dylan.” luke said. “hey. his room.” dylan said. “thanks.” luke smiled.

dylan is one or the few people who know jaylen and luke are dating.

luke walked into jaylen’s room. “jay?” luke asked. “yea?” jaylen said, his voice shaking. “hey, what’s wrong?” luke asked, rubbing jaylens arm.

“nothing…” jaylen shook his head. “jaylen, i’m gonna say this again. to be in a relationship, you have trust one another. tell me what happened.” luke said softly, luke has told jaylen this

“i just… a minute.” jaylen chocked back a sob. “okay. whenever your ready.” luke whispered, kissing jaylens head.

——————

“okay.” jaylen said, leaning against headboard of his bed. “i’m ready.”

“okay.” luke nodded, turning his full attention to jaylen.

“okay, when i was like 17-18 i was in this relationship with this dude named carl, which by the way, that name gives me the ick.” jaylen said. “anyways, we were dating for like a year?’i don’t know… the beginning of our relationship was perfect, anything you could dream of, right?” jaylen said.

the fiction of our love

pairing: gregory x male reader

author’s note: y’all abbott elementary is a masterpiece. i've been watching quinta’s videos since she was at buzzfeed,,, and it’s so amazing to see her flourishing and getting the recognition she deserves!

anyway... i love gregory so. much. so i had to write a lil something. hehehehe.

word count: 2.2k [ao3 version here]

You’re not having the best day. Your car nearly got towed—despite you being parked in the right spot—and you tripped walking up the stairs in the school. Safe to say, it’s just one of those days. The moment you begin to forget the morning’s grievances, however, one of your students is throwing up.

“Let’s get you to the bathroom, Jadah” you say, leading your student by the hand to the women’s bathroom. You pray that no one is in there right now. Jadah walks into the bathroom and you hesitantly follow her, intent on making sure she doesn't throw up again. You’re certainly not expecting to run into another man in the women’s restroom. The two of you stare at each other for a few moments.

“Um, I don’t think you’re supposed to be in here-” You say, staring at the stranger. He doesn’t appear to be threatening in the slightest, but protocol regulates that strangers shouldn’t be on the school premises.

“I don’t think you are, either.” Okay, fair point, you concede. “I’m the male stripper that Principal... Coleman hired.” You freeze and stare at the man in disbelief. He stares back with a blank expression and it takes you several moments to recover from the statement.

“The what?” You choke out. Male stripper? Surely, Ava wouldn’t stoop to such levels. You’re brutally aware of the two young students in the room, but thankfully, they both seem to be preoccupied or distracted to hear the remark.

“I’m just joking,” the man says, an awkward smile on his face. “I’m the new substitute teacher.” Of course, that is the very moment you finally notice the identification badge looped around his neck. You take a second to truly look at him, now that you know he isn’t a random stranger standing in the women’s restroom. The substitute is tall and lanky, with wide eyes that suggest that he’s a bit overwhelmed. You decide to help him out.

“Oh, great,” you smile in relief, putting aside the strange stripper comment. Ava probably said something weird to him. Poor guy. “Can you hold her hand for a moment? I can grab some pants for Jaylen here.” Jadah walks over to the substitute and you walk over to the supply closet to grab a spare pair of uniform pants. Jaylen changes in one of the stalls and you send him back to his class. Next, there’s your student. Ironically, you’re pretty sure that this new substitute actually engaged in conversation with her, which is rather impressive considering the fact that she threw up and that she doesn’t know him. Thankfully, after waiting several minutes, it seems that Jadah is feeling alright. It must’ve been something she ate.

“Alright, you should be good, Jadah; let me know if you feel funny again,” you smile, watching as she leaves to return to your classroom. Now, it’s just the substitute teacher and you standing in the wrong restroom. You stare at him for a second, before realizing that you’re forgetting your manners. “Hey, what’s your name, by the way?” You ask, making sure to introduce yourself before you forget, “I’m one of the teachers here.”

“Gregory,” the man answers. “Nice... to meet you.” He sticks out a hand and then evidently realizes that it’s dirty and abandons the gesture. You smile and wash your hands alongside him. A smile grows on Gregory’s face and you can’t help but think it's rather charming.

“Well, I hope you stick around,” you blurt out, before you can control yourself. Gregory raises an eyebrow at you, evidently confused. You grab some paper towels and dry off your hands, steadily avoiding eye contact. “Not many teachers do... But, hey. We’re doing important work here. The kids deserve the world.” With that, you leave and walk back to your classroom. After all, you left the kids with Mr. Johnson. He might be teaching them about Kanye West again, you sigh.

Admittedly, your interaction with Gregory soon falls to the back of your mind. You don’t see him for the next few days and it seems like he’s only stopping by on a temporary basis. You exchange greetings in the halls, but that’s about it. You try to pretend that you’re not disappointed about that. Nearly all of the new ones leave. You really shouldn’t expect any different.

You’re thinking about the rather high turnover rate as you walk into school one sunny morning. You mechanically make your way to the teacher’s lounge, fully intent on talking with Melissa and Barbara. They’re both fun to talk to and you enjoy getting to know them more. You walk over to their table, ready to take your seat and bemoan the nature of your existence. You quite nearly move to sit down, until there’s a hand on your wrist and a confused Gregory staring at you.

“Sorry, force of habit,” you grimace, lingering awkwardly. You’re about to walk to the other table when he pulls out a chair for you. You thank him and sit down, giving into the urge to ask the question that first came to your mind when you saw him. “Anyway, Gregory! Looks like you’re staying.”

“Yeah,” Gregory answers. He picks at the part of the table where the coating is beginning to come off. “I figured I should stay. You know, for the kids.” For the kids, you nod. You’re unable to keep the happy smile from your face. Chancing a glance at Barbara and Melissa, you find that they’re looking at Gregory and you with knowing gazes. You raise an eyebrow at them. Melissa sends you a wink and Barbara smiles, before expertly turning the conversation to something else.

After that conversation, you see Gregory a little more often. Even so, the two of you are both busy with your classes, so you don’t get much time to talk to him or the other teachers. The opportunity to get to know your coworkers soon presents itself a few weeks later.

The district requires monthly “team meetings,” which are just glorified wastes of time. Ava seems to think the same, as she remarks that she’d rather die than talk to her coworkers more than she needs to. Unfortunately, the lot of you are forced to stay together and do something during the time because of technicalities. Jacob suggests that all of you play Two Truths and a Lie. Ava suggests that he go back to ComicCon “with his nerdy self” and you have to resist the urge to laugh. Even with that insult, though, all of you are playing Two Truths and a Lie before long.

“I’ve been on a mission trip to Africa, my favorite television series is Star Trek Into Darkness, and I have a boyfriend.” Ava mumbles something about not caring about his life story. Barbara guesses that he doesn’t have a boyfriend, and Jacob spends the next ten minutes joyfully describing his boyfriend.

“What about you, kid?” You freeze and turn to look at Melissa. Suddenly, everyone turns to look at you. “Girlfriend? Boyfriend? Partner? What’dya got?”

“I’ve never dated anyone,” you mutter, before you can think about the consequences of doing so. You’re horrible at lying, though; you’re sure that your coworkers would have noticed if you lied to them.

“That just explains so much...” Barbara of all people remarks. You frown at her and she smiles apologetically, clearly joking.

“Are you Mormon?” Ava asks, squinting at you for a moment. Dread coils in your chest. This is about to be a vicious burn—you can feel it. “’Cause you need more men.” Sure enough, she absolutely decimates you with that one. You take a deep breath and try to manifest a serenity that you’re not quite feeling.

The group—and by the group, you mean mostly Ava—just won’t change topics. You stick it out for a while longer, but after nearly ten minutes of “playful” insults, you have to leave the room. There’s a tightness in your chest and your eyes are burning. You furiously swipe at the tears falling down your face and stride out towards the front landing. Unsurprisingly, the universe seems dead-set on spiting you, because it is absolutely pouring rain. You don't have an umbrella of any sort and you’re about to get drenched when there’s a sudden shadow over your head.

“Hey,” Gregory stands next to you, an umbrella in hand. He holds it over the two of you. There’s a concerned expression on his face as he looks at you. “You okay?”

“Yeah,” you say, leaning back against the door. Gregory moves the umbrella back ever so slightly. For an immeasurable amount of time, the two of you stand quietly. You feel mortified and humiliated, despite the fact that you knew your coworkers were joking.

“It doesn’t matter if you’ve dated anyone or not.” Gregory voices, breaking the tense silence. You bite your lip and try to keep yourself from crying more.

“I know,” you answer. “It’s just... funny, I guess,” Gregory raises an eyebrow, waiting for you to continue, “I don’t think anyone realizes that I wasn’t exactly given a choice in the matter.”

“I grew up in the suburbs and it took me a long time to even realize that I didn’t like women that way. I got busy with school, then busy with work... You know, all that stuff. Never had the time or interest in romance, I guess. It started to seem like a pipe dream.

“Plus, I missed out on the whole.. high school dating experience—although, arguably, there was nothing to miss out on. Still, I got so wrapped up in everything and now I’m here and... I don’t know. I just don’t think it’s realistic.”

“Why?” Gregory asks, breaking the silence after your explanation. “Just because it hasn't happened yet... doesn’t mean it won’t. Besides, if people haven’t realized that you’re, you know, an option... That’s everybody else’s loss, not yours.”

“Thanks,” you choke out, feeling strangely emotional at the reassurance from your coworker. Gregory nods, his eyes focused on some point in the distance. You push past the burning feeling in your throat. “That’s nice of you to say.”

“It’s just the truth.” Gregory turns to look at you, an unreadable expression on his face. “If you’re interested in being with someone, I'm sure you'll find them. Whoever they are.”

You pause for a moment at hearing the uncertainty in his voice in that last statement. You chance a glance at Gregory, only to find that he’s already looking at you with an unreadable expression.

“Maybe... you’ve even already found him.” Gregory’s remark is so quiet that you have to strain to hear it. It takes you a few seconds to process his statement but, once you do, you look at him. There’s no trace of dishonesty, pity, or anything else in his expression. Suddenly, something unbelievable dawns on you. You stare at Gregory and he looks askance for a moment.

“You?” You murmur quietly. Gregory swallows, his Adam’s apple bobbing with the motion. He looks conflicted. Time stretches on painfully and you can’t get rid of the anxiety prickling along your skin.

“...Me,” Gregory finally responds, just before you can frantically apologize for misinterpreting everything. “I- Sorry. That wasn't why I came out here. I just wanted to say that it doesn’t matter what they say about you. In the end, the only person whose opinion matters is yours.”

“I really didn't mean to say that. Well, I did mean it, I just didn’t mean to say it right now-” You don’t give Gregory the chance to apologize any more, instead leaning in to kiss him. He goes comically silent and for an awful moment, you think that you have once again misinterpreted things. You’re able to dismiss that notion rather quickly, though, because Gregory’s hands rise to cradle your cheeks. A moment later, the two of you break apart and you smile. Just before you can speak, the five-minute bell rings; it looks like lunch is almost over.

“Let’s go inside before lunch ends,” Gregory grimaces, opening the door for you. You wait for him to close his umbrella before the two of you walk down the hall. As you walk side by side, your hands brush up against each other and you can’t quite hide a smile. For a quick moment, Gregory clasps your hand in his and grips it reassuringly. Somehow, the moment isn’t quite quick enough, because Ava rounds the corner and sees the two of you holding hands. For a moment, the three of you just stare at each other. Gregory and you practically tear your hands apart in an attempt to look authentic. Ava doesn’t seem convinced and she shakes her head disapprovingly.

“Thin ice.” Ava shakes her head, motioning to the two of you and dragging her finger across her throat in a threatening gesture. She then walks straight towards the two of you, forcing you to step aside so that you don’t crash into her. Ava walks down the hallway towards the entrance, procures an umbrella out of seemingly nowhere, and then walks out into the rain.

“Where’s she going?” You can’t help but voice aloud. “Pretty sure she still thinks school ends after lunch,” Gregory responds. The two of you look at each other, let out annoyed sighs, and continue walking down the hall. Despite the sudden interrogation by Ava, you’re still happy. Gregory seems to be happy too, if the soft smile on his face is any indication. You clasp his hand one more time before returning to your classroom, the smile refusing to fade from your face.

Jaylen x veneer head canons please 👀

okay thats new but i like it

Veneer x Jaylen dating hcs!

they r both so fine

They met at Velvet and Veneers concert when Veneer locked eyes with Jaylen, instantly feeling a connection. He's seen a lot of people but something felt different about Jaylen.

Veneer found Jaylen on instagram with the help of a few connections and messaged him, they instantly hit it off.

They started to hang out, getting closer and closer. It was obvious they were both falling for each other.

Veneer invites Jaylen backstage after every show so he can see him and admire him as he talks about the concert.

Once they started dating they became inseparable, they are always with each other.

Matching clothes 24/7

Jaylen doesnt smoke around Veneer, hes worried that Veneer wont support it

Veneer is clingy so they are always cuddling and watching movies

Jaylen wears the pants in the relationship for sure, he cooks, cleans, makes sure Veneer is doing good, 100% more manly than Veneer

Overall though, they are healthy and cute, its hard to write for them because Jaylen looks like he would be a straight 6'5 dreadhead stoner that wears matching hello kitty pajama pants with his 4'11 latina gf

HI OKAY YES I HAVE REQUEST—

poly!wolfstar, but they sort of have that casual dom/dom/sub relationship with gender neutral reader and after a super long day, reader is just exhausted and sirius turns into padfoot and remus is just smiling like an idiot as reader is just petting him n stuff!!! ive never requested something before so thank you!!! xx -jaylen

love this request :)

(not proof read, sorry!!!)

warnings: reader having a shitty day?? idk

You mentally curse yourself as you drop your bag, books, snacks, and crumpled papers clattering to the ground as students turn to look at the commotion.

Your cheeks flame as you hurriedly collect your things, stuffing the items into your bag before rushing off in the direction of the Gryffindor dormitories with tears welling in your eyes.

It seems luck wasn't on your side, your professor stopping you to lecture you on your poor exam grade. It only lasted five minutes, but it felt like eternity to you. You had to hold back tears the entire time, willing yourself not to have a breakdown in the middle of the hallway.

Finally, he lets you go with a clap on your shoulder with a good luck kid, and you're off. You're nearly tripping over your own feet as you jog down the hall, materials clanking in your bag at your fast pace.

You don't bother knocking, inviting yourself into your boyfriend's dorm before you could remember your manners.

Remus and Sirius are laid on the bed, the former reading a book while the latter rests on his shoulder, close to dozing off when the slam of the door snaps him to consciousness.

"Hey, darling." Sirius drawls tiredly.

"Hey." You mumble, kicking your shoes off while your bag falls to the floor when your shoulders slump.

"What's wrong, pet?" Remus questions, ever so observant.

"Not feelin' too good." You sigh, trudging over to take a seat on the edge of the bed, eyes trained on the splintering hardwood flooring.

"What's wrong?" He pries further, gently nudging Sirius off to scoot closer to you. His hand comes up to rest on your shoulder, thumb drawing circles on the clothed limb.

"Had a bad day." Your voice wobbles, the tears you had been holding back all day deciding to show themselves at the worst moment.

Sirius who had been quietly watching this entire time moves so he's to your left side, turning your head and pulling you into his chest.

You let yourself go, all the pent-up emotions and exhaustion manifesting in the hot tears rolling down your cheeks. Their hands on your skin feel like anchors holding you to reality, your mind and body overstimulated with stress.

"You know what they need?" Remus directs his question toward Sirius.

You pull your head from your boyfriends chest, looking between the two who are now grinning like idiots.

"What?" You respond.

"Padfoot." They answer in unison.

"This is nice." You murmur, hand brushing over Padfoot's thick coat.

"Always know how to make ya' feel better." Remus smiles, patting your leg affectionately.

You hum, letting your eyes fall shut as you relax into your boyfriends dog-form. He's soft, and warm, and you feel an overwhelming sense of comfort surrounding you. Listening to his slow heartbeat encourages you to let the stress from the day melt away, thoughts of only Sirius and Remus filling your mind.

You're snapped out of your thoughts when a big, wet tongue laps your cheek.

"Siri!" You squeal, pushing his face away as you burst into a fit of giggles.

He pants, almost looking like he's smiling as his black eyes meet yours.

His eyes are screaming I love you, and you hear it. Every inch of your being feels it, and you let yourself drift off with the reminder that at the end of the day, you will always have them to come home to.

And nothing is more comforting than that.

Goodbye Blaseball

I don’t think I’m being dramatic when I say Blaseball changed my life. I had been a bad place in July 2020. I wasn’t writing anymore, something I had been trying to make a career out of. Then I joined this silly game — there were players like Oliver Notarobot and Eugenia Garbage — and I knew I was in the right place.

What I got out of Blaseball was the best community I’ve ever been a part of. I have said this a hundred times before, but I’m constantly in awe of the community and what they can do — there’s been so much writing and art and music and software projects and all of it is amazing. The community pushed me to try to do better. My art got better and I started writing again — as of this time, I have 24 pieces on AO3, including a collaborative AU with my blesties, Cynda and Kit. I learned how to write faster, my writing matured, and I learned that perfect is the enemy of good.

I made friends, who’ve been an absolute joy and absolute gifts, and I feel lucky to have found them. My team, the Canada Moist Talkers, have been the best team, and I have so many memories hanging out in chat:

celebrating every Garbage Day when Eugenia got a hit

when we somehow managed to get PolkaDot Patterson

who because one of the core members of the team

losing Richmond and then Hobbs in the same season

resurrecting Jaylen and experiencing the Consequences

Ruby Tuesday

PolkaMunnion

Day X

and into Expansion:

Foul ball: 0-2.

I remember getting to work and finding out York Silk was gone

watching us win the Season 14 championships on my grandmother’s couch winning For York, the chat going supersonic

Dot getting alted and the emergence coming together of the Talkers and the Mechs to fix it

Manifest Pressure

You Hate It Here

and hey talkers.

I will never forget Valhalifax and Jasper Coven, my Blaseball son.

I cannot describe these events without sounding unhinged. These events are burned into my brain.

Someone’s brought this up already, but The Garage’s “Everyone That’s Left” has been hitting differently today, specifically:

I want you to feel joyous I want you to feel okay I want you to wake up tomorrow and fight another day

I want you to look back and see how far that we’ve all came I want you to remember them And carry on their name

(God, remember hearing “Everyone That’s Left” at the end of Discipline, after “Godspeed (Revised)”, when the Hallstars are all released and gone, and the melody of “Eyes in the Dark” started playing, and it sounded so triumphant and spirited and new?)

This isn’t the end. Blaseball will live as long as we keep it alive. There will still be stories to tell, there’s still art to make.

Oh, as far as I’m concerned, all of the players — the redacted players, the staticed players, the ones returned to the Hall, the buried players and the players on a quest, the players on current rosters, the season 24 teams, the prehistory players, and everyone left in the Blackhole (Blackhole) are all Released. Everyone gets to go home. Everyone gets to rest.

Goodbye, Blaseball. Thank you for being a turning point in my life. Thank you for making me better. Thank you for the community and the friends. The commissioner did a great job. I am all love you.

And finally, Be Gross, Be Kind.

#blaseball #this isn’t actually goodbye #this blog is going to stick around #I can’t ever forget Blaseball #Bandcamp

Alright I was asked to make a list of all the The Garages songs I associate with life series things so I have done that

A few notes:

Songs are in no particular order (mostly just sorted by album as I was going through listening to them all)

All song titles (in color) are links to the respective songs, so you can listen to them :3

These songs are all worth listening to but my absolute favorites are marked in orange

Let me know what you think! I’ve been waiting so long to talk extensively about this :)))))) <- going to explode

list is below the cut because this got loooong

Astro Astronomodome’s Garages Life Series Playlist:

Eyes in the Dark- *gestures vaguely* how am I gonna live with these eyes in the dark when they’re following me around and they’re following you around 👍 and there’s nowhere you can go that they’re not there 👍

Jaylen Hotdogfingers Settles The Score- limited life winner martyn in thy little wood I am so normal about you <- lie

Godspeed- TIES sending off Skizz… see you space cowboy

Curse of Crows- third life grian-core, you know, when he was green and couldn’t actually kill but he and scar were going around being vaguely threatening. You could maybe use the crows in this as a metaphor for red life scar. Also birds

Relief Pitcher (Leave It On The Field)- Extremely strong vibes but I’m not sure of what. Maybe last life martyn? In the final battle? Idk. Maybe every martyn. I ljke him. (anyway this song changed my brain chemistry permanently so it deserves a place in the list regardless)

rooting for you- I’m delusional, bdubs is a species of plant, and ethubs is wlw. what is a nature wives

we had a season- ok this is THE desert duo song. No song will ever end of double life we’ve-spent-so-much-time-dancing-around-each-other-and-now-we-have-nothing-left-but-each-other desert duo as hard as this song. I have a very detailed AMV in my head of this so you know I’m right. It’s even a duet… ‘we had a season, we had a year/between when I died and when I reappeared’ (there’s almost exactly a year between grian’s last third life episode and scar’s first double life episode. I checked for this reason specifically and it killed me instantly) PLEASE just listen to this one ‘I had my reasons, I had my fears/I had my pride (I still had tears in my eyes as I died)’

dead ringer- just as the previous song is The desert duo song, this is The red king ren song. It slaps and the vibes are perfect. ‘my skin is made of energy, my blood is made of fire/I am what will happen when your best-made plans backfire’

hexed- very much post-3rd life watcher grian. pretty self-explanatory

The Alternate- ‘I’m new but I’ve seen so much/I’m old but I was not there’ do I even need to say it. Gem-as-Cleo and Lizzie-as-Pearl (‘I’ve done this once before’)

gamer grindset- yeah this is The Life Series Joel Song. you can fight me on this but you don’t have to because I know I’m right

a leap of faith- reminds me of scar. nothing in particular it just has similar vibes

haunted- ok now this is a Real watcher grian kind of song. ‘my body is a temple/for the gods of other men/wielded as a weapon by foes I swore I’d never be again’ ok. edgy bird moment

she’s dead and i’m someone else- this one requires some interpretation but I’ve always seen it was team BEST mourning the loss of bdubs. However it could also be applied to almost every ten in the life series that lost a member early lol

Mike Townsend (feels the shadows call)- specifically last life shadow alliance martyn but any martyn in general fits. he’s having a bad time

INCINERATE- just like. Being on your red life in general and the bloodlust and manic energy that brings. 😛 (edit after the finale: OKAY I KNOW THERES SO MANY LIMITED LIFE MARTYN SONGS BUT THIS IS ALSO ONE OF THEM ‘I know how to win this/I don’t need to play your games/I’m just gonna dance now/I’ll show you how to deal with pain’ ‘every day’s getting worse and we’re starting to choke/‘cause the water in the air is getting stuck in our throats’ LIKE COME ON MAN)

Sidelined- limited life skizz you will always be famous ‘am I just another wash-out/am I damned to go out swinging/I can’t hear you from the dugout/is there anyone else singing for me’ I am singing! I am singing for you skizzleman!!!!!!!!!

Firewalker With Me- the song. The myth. The legend. It’s just such a great song and it’s about life series grian’s curse of killing the people he cares most about. Grian is a parker if you think about it <- mentally ill (special note- ‘nobody deserves to be called a curse/but if you’re gonna resist I’m happy to make things worse’ is grian accidentally getting jimmy final-killed first in limited life btw)

We’ve Got History- not to be that guy but desert duo. Ok

New Year, Same Me- martyn.

The Return- the start of a new life series! Seeing old friends again! Missing friends who couldn’t make it (cough cough martyn missing ren in limited life cough cough)! Playing the game! Living and loving despite the horrors!

A Horrible Mistake We Will Make Again And Again- grian grian grian. Grain. The bird boy. Also easily one of my favorite Garages song titles. ‘If I don’t know the limits, how am I gonna break them?/If you think that we’re kidding well then you’re sorely mistaken’

The First Ain’t The Last- canary curse activated! Honestly the entirety of this album is just the average life series lmao ‘and one day you’ll wake up/and from the ashes a phoenix will rise/and she’ll hit like a champ/and burn out bright before your eyes’

The Ballad of Unremarkable Derrick Krueger- another one that definitely has life series vibes (and is just a really good song) but that I just can’t place. I want to say Tango honestly because he always has been somewhat painfully mediocre and has famously always final-deathed in underwhelming and meaningless ways

Rise- this is the Cleo song. Epic. Thank you Cleo :) Joe can be the monitor in this scenario I think he’d be good at it

RIV- does anyone still remember that part of martyn’s last life lore where the mysterious voice was promising that he would get to see jimmy mumbo and impulse again if he followed its instructions? Well……

Hell’s Game- Blaseball is a death game and this song leans into that so naturally it fits pretty well with the life series as a whole. Would make a great AMV

5am Shift- Ok bear with me here. This doesn’t really fit Pearl other than the song title (lol) and maybe you can make some parallels to cleaning lady Pearl but it gives me her vibes. Plus it’s just a whole jazzy banger and one of my favorite songs so it’s going here anyway :)

Nullified- for the end of limited life. pretty self-explanatory ‘wasted all my minutes/trying to stay alive/and look where it got me/I’m just the last one nullified’ honestly worked better before the actual finale because martyn was more manic about it than this song would imply

STRIKEOUT!- life series mumbo my horrible wet cat. this song is a little weird but it suits him I think

The Tug- they never left the desert.

SUN 2- obligatory flower husbands song for all the flower husbands enjoyers out there. Time to go cry I guess

flooding/drowning- big impdubs moment. Or honestly just any of bdubs’s life series exes reminiscing… ‘and you’re angry when the energy rises to meet you/like the life rafts are disrespectful to the sea’ is the most life series bdubs thing I’ve ever heard

REMEMBERTHEM- very good and classic anti-watcher song. If c!martyn was just a little more aware of his situation I think this would fit better (honestly a lot of good garages songs just don’t fit very well because we haven’t quite reached the ‘let’s kill the watchers’ stage of the lore yet lmaooo)

Nothing Happens Every Day- tfw when no life series 🥺 could also be martyn because he loves to kill <3

historic season nine party time speedrun and associated records- mean gills vibes. a nice quiet evening in the coral isles, reminiscing

Mike Townsend Is A Disappointment- I’m so sorry Jimmy but it fits too well

Bonus! Hermitcraft-adjacent songs:

Storm’s Raging- moon big. the long, slow, inevitable end of the world. Bdubs looking up at the sky as it falls on him. the lyrics kick ass as well: ‘there were days when it all seemed never ending/when all you could hear was the forecasts, the fear/and the sound of the cloudline bending’ (and the way it speeds up at the end……. omg)

howling at twin moons- s8 scar. I will not elaborate

alaynabella hollywood- ariana griande <- wait who said that

golden- rentheking arc I love you :3 viva la revolution

Sincerely, The Collateral- hermitcitizen song tbh

Beep or Bleat- despite the EXTREMELY zedaph-coded song title this is actually end-of-season 8 tango moon landing-core. ‘do we possess a soul/does it exceed the speed of light/can it escape black holes/do we still have a chance to fight’

Nut Economy- another rentheking arc song. You can tell when I started watching HC from this can’t you. Well. Royal emeralds I miss you :(

Morning is Coming- HONESTLY if I had the ability to make AMVs this would be top of my list. It’s just so… so much. Escaping moon big at the end of season 8… I know it’s overdone at this point but it’s rotating around in my head all the time. What does it say about me that there are two moon big songs here and they’re both my favorites…

fourteen days is not enough for my screams to reach your ears- another tango lost in space at the end of season 8 song. it messed me up ok

psychoacoustics- I love convex* *DISCLAIMER: 99% of the convex knowledge I have comes from fan interpretation alone. Alternatively I could just be really trying to manifest a zedaph villain arc

oliver mueller (is a hero)- docm77 for several reasons which will become apparent almost immediately

hello world- grumbot I love you :] (putting in a different version so you can tell what the lyrics are without subtitles and I’m sorry because this version of the song is somewhat worse. they just start singing godspeed in the middle of it for some reason and like I’m not complaining I love that song but also why) (here’s the original version)

the entire kansas city breath mints team failed the bar exam- hermitcraft. no elaboration is necessary
