Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh this is so beautiful I cry!

I love them both so much 🥺💖

FIRST PART of Gaara’s bday comic (that happens before his bday so I figured I’d post it earlier) 🙌🙌 it’s like a prelude to the actual comic. A little introduction, if u will

Fingers crossed so that I finish the actual thing on time (probably not)

[weeb-renaissance]

This is so awesome 😯👀💕

best fight in all 720 episodes!

What’s your favorite headcannon that you think about so much you forget it’s a headcannon?

Mine is that after the Rescue Gaara arc Kankuro realizes how much he wants a relationship with his little brother and he and Gaara become inseparable best friends who confide in eachother and spend all their free time hanging out. Gaara still keeps a lot of his thoughts to himself but Kankuro can read his body language and sometimes they just hang out in silence enjoying each other’s company. Kankuro tries to help Gaara learn how to be more social and open up and Gaara teaches Kankuro how to meditate and be more mindful. Kankuro has even accomplished the feat of making Gaara laugh a few times which he’s very proud of. Gaara never has to face a struggle alone ever again because he knows his older brother will always have his back.

Gaara had become so strange lately.

Always hovering on the edge of this invisible border Kankuro and Temari had built around themselves.

Stones carved from secrets and resentment and the all-encompassing quiet surrounding their feelings had been laid one after another until this wall had become so high, neither of them could catch a glimpse of the top.

They were blind for one another.

And only now, after Uzumaki Naruto had crashed into their lives like a sledge hammer gone loose, could they really see this border clearly.

For the first time in forever, all of them wanted to breach it. But neither of them knew how.

@ghoste-catte  @sagemoderocklee and @lilac-writes I hope it’s oki to just tag you guys on my first adventure into sandsib territory :)

Fandom asks: A B N

A - Your current OTP(s)/OT3(s)/OTX(s)

Gaalee hands down.

Also Sakura and Ino.

And I kinda like the idea of team Taka being just one loving poly group of ragtag lil criminals. (If they would be better characterized that is. Especially Karin.)

 B - A pairing you initially didn’t consider but someone changed your mind

Definitely gaalee! When I first saw fanart and fanfiction about them I was kinda like: Lee though?! Guys why?

But listen I was a fool! A buffoon! The saddest clown of them all!

Lee is such an awesome character when handled right and since reading the works from ghoste-catte and sagemoderocklee I’m on team gaalee!

 N - Name three things you wish you saw more or in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice)

Okay so my main fandom is less a fandom and more a writer community were we all write and share art in the same genre? I guess you can call whump a genre, right?!

And let me tell you the community there is amazingly sweet, open and supportive.

We all take great care in showing our love for each other’s work and share love and ideas. Kinda making the stories grow together at times. Also all the asks and drabble ideas people send are the best!!!

I wish that I can find the same lovely interactions with people in this fandom :D <3

👀 Oh I'm already looking forward to 'I think we're hunted' I love this fick and the chapter with the audio recording really freaked me out a bit (okay maybe I shouldn't have read this alone in the middle of the night 😂) it was fantastic 💕

And the thing with reusing sentences struckers oh boi that's relatable. I re-read some of my early stuff the other day and 😯 brain why would you do me dirty like that?! But in a seriousness don't worry to much about this. I for one didn't notice that in your writing and honestly if artists can have a certain stile so can writers. I really like the vibe of your pieces 💕

hey this is very late but if ur still doing those meta asks, 2 3 14 19!! :)

Definitely! Sorry this took me a bit - I ended up trying to nap after work and it didn’t really work as intended, lol. P.S. I love your username. 

2. Tell us about what you’re most looking forward to writing – in your current project, or a future project  

The next chapter of i think we’re haunted is one that was one of the very first ideas I had for the story. It’s very chaotic and I hope it will be as funny once I write it down as it is in my head and in outline form. This is really the chapter where the story will live up to the tag Alternate Universe - Found Footage Horror Movie. I made the graphics for this chapter over a year ago now, and I’m super excited to put them to use. Spoilers: it involves a paranormal YouTube channel ;) 

3. What is that one scene that you’ve always wanted to write but can’t be arsed to write all of the set-up and context it would need? (consider this permission to write it and/or share it anyway)  

I have a little snippet of dialogue in my “ideas” document that goes like this:

Lee: “My son is twelve years old. He does not even have the confidence to give a book report in front of his class. He does not know all the joyo kanji, and yet he knows over a dozen ways to kill a man.” 

Gaara: “He is strong.” 

Lee: “This isn’t right!”  

The problem is that the set-up for this fic is basically, like, a complete deconstruction of the entire shinobi system, and Lee realizing how destructive the shinobi way of life is after Gai-sensei dies (tragically and meaninglessly) in a scuffle, and he begins seeing the effect this has on Metal. This would be ... really hard to write for a lot of reasons. Plot is not my strong suit, and neither is politics or social analysis. I don’t have any of the framework that would lead up to that revelation, and even if I did, I definitely don’t have a conclusion or a solution that I feel like would make sense ... or that wouldn’t require me to write, like, a massive reformation and revolution that I don’t have the skills to tackle. So this one will probably be one that sits on the shelf until I’ve grown much more as a writer, and I can articulate properly not just that I want things in the Naruto ‘verse to change, but how I would want them to change, and the process by which I think that change could happen.

14. At what point in writing do you come up with a title?  

It’s really sort of random! With some stories, the title comes at almost the exact same time as the idea, especially when the story is inspired by music. All the Grain of Babylon was titled well before it had more than a very loose sketch of an idea, since it was inspired by a song. Other times, I get all the way to the end of writing a fic and go “Well, fuck, I need a title now”. What Water Tastes Like was one of those times. I ended up typing “love water quotes” into Google and pulled the title off a pinterest mood board. And other times I honestly crowdsource the title! I’ll drop into Discord and be like, “I need a title for a story about X”, and normally someone in the GaaLee chat will help me out (shout out to Whazzername, by the way, who has named many a fic for me with a well-timed pun). 

19. Is there something you always find yourself repeating in your writing? (favourite verb, something you describe ‘too often’, trope you can’t get enough of?)  

Ughhhh, yes, to my eternal chagrin. There are definitely certain words and phrases that I use that are slightly unusual and super repetitive. I try to be cognizant of it, and I’m often re-reading my own work to try and catch stuff I may have already used, because I’ll get an idea for a line and be like “Oh that’s so good!” and then realize “... Wait, this is a little too familiar.” I hope I’m the only person who notices that I do that? But I could be wrong. I realized the other day that I have multiple scenes across different fics where someone tells Gaara something along the lines of, “Wow, so you really do have a beating heart in there after all.” It’s such an oddly specific thing.

Hdhshdhd thank you 💕 hearing such high praise from one of my favorite authors is just gdhhshs

Hey-ho everyone.

I thought I just make a little intro-post to say hello to all you awesome creative folks out there that sparked my old love for Naruto, or rather ‘the sand siblings and other less important people’ as someone here put it, anew.  

I was checking the Gaara tag awhile back for the first time in a loooong ass time and stumbled over the awesome comics of @bakapandy and the amazing writings of @ghoste-catte (I love your stuff so much aaahh.) @sagemoderocklee , @lilac-writes and and many more let me tell you guys: all y’all talents are insane!

You guys made me want to be part of fandom again for the first time since I was like 13 or something?

So I decided to try my hand on creating some art and writing for our beloved sand fam, too.

And thank you all for blessing us with your amazing creations <3

#I'm sitting on my next gaara drawing rn and your sweet comment just gave me the biggest boosts

[weeb-renaissance]

thank you so much sage <3
