An absolutely adorable fake dating fangic with enemies to lovers and also Tsunade ,who is my favorite female character in Naruto, meddling

Because the ship was popular before Arcane/Vi ‘s full name was revealed apparently (I stole Violyn from a TikTok I can’t take credit for it btw)

Is the arcane fandom big on here? Especially Jarvik and Violyn(Caitvi) fans

The Speak Now dress looks so good

Feeling so high school, every time we look at you Lisbon 🥹

Poor sweet homosexual boom boom bomb

Katsuki the morning after 431

Friendly reminder that Gaara was born with eyeliner

Petition to change “InoKarin” to “KarIno” because it’s pronounced the same way as “carino” in Italian which means cute and I think it’s adorable

Chapter 4: "I Love You, I'm Sorry"

Notes:

This Chapter was pretty difficult to write and while reading it you're probably going to realize how much I rushed the story but I also accidentally vented a lot at the start

SOOO...brace yourself? Idk just be warned

"Dear Diary,

Shoyo has been visiting less, like way less.

Maybe once or twice a month.

I go over at his tree at least once a week but most of the time I just find Woodpecker the crow, which is a confusing name what idiot decided to name a crow "Woodpecker"?

Shoyo's my favorite idiot tho.

I had to know what was on his mind, how am I supposed to help if I don't know what's upsetting him? I've never been good at this kind of stuff and this conversation was no different

"What's wrong with you lately", starting off strong right there Tobio

"I'm going to allow you to rephrase that question", Shoyo was clearly pissed off by the way that came out

"You've been sad lately, for a while actually, but lately you barely even smile, that smile of pure you-ness that makes you shine bright like the sun is gone", that last part was an accident, I thought out loud and I was totally corny af.

"You think I shine like the sun?", his smile came back for a few seconds bit this time that bright light that always felt like the sun was obscured by clouds.

(Just to clarify this is a metaphor not a witch thing)

"I do but don't you dare change the subject!", I said.

Shoyo sighed and grabbed himself tea he haf just made, it was disgusting but I wasn't going to yell him that in this state, "Ever since I found out my family is still out there and they didn't just not care after I disappeared...I feel like there is this giant rock sitting on my heart. It's weird to explain but it's like something between guilt, Fomo and something else"

"Well why don't we break it down? Why do you feel guilty?", I tried to quote my therapist as best as I could.

"I guess I feel guilty for leaving and making them worry", his eyes usually tried to look at mine every chance they got but this time they averted my gaze as much as possible.

I've never been a fan of eye contact but at that moment I wished to be able to stare at that shine he had in his eyes before he lost it that day.

"Ok, let's remember that for later um..." I paused and hoped to have not said something stupid, "Why the Fomo?", I asked.

He grabbed his shirt, squeezed right wherehis heart was as if trying to stop it from beating out of his chest, oh how I know the feeling, "What happened after I left? I have a sister now and I didn't even fucking know! What else have I missed?"

"Alright, we can unpack that somehow gor sure", I started writing it down on a notepad nearby, "What is that thing you weren't sure of? Can you describe it to me?"

“...What if they forgot me?", his voice cracked, streamed down his face.

"I know the feeling of the fear of being forgotten tho it's probably a little different, I've not always struggled making friends and talking to people. I don't know when of happened but suddenly I was a friendless background character in my own story, with the fear of being remembered only as the

"Volleyball-freak" in middle school...but one thing kept me sane all this time."

"What?", he asked me

"I had someone by my side that never left me, no matter how much of an idiot 1 am sometimes, and I would love to be that person for you too", I put my hand on his cheek, for a moment he looked like he was about to say something but then he just huged me and started sobbing.

I wish I could have helped him more but at least he wasn't bottling up everything anymore.

Telling him "I Love You" in this situation wouldn't be right. I'll find another time to tell him, that's a promise"

"Dear Diary,

Shoyo talks to me more now, I'm glad he trusts me enough to tell me all the things that have been plaguing his mind all of these years.

He asked me on a date today and I didn't think anything of it at first, big mistake.

First of all we went inside the woods, it was weirdly mystical, there was a slight fog in the air, animals didn't flee but instead just looked at us, were they familiars just like Woodpecker?

We stopped next to a river at the feet of a waterfall, he had planned a picnic just like our first date but this time, it was just us.

He had a basket full of food he prepared, which was surprisingly delicious, which made me ask myself, What the fuck does he put in tea to make it taste so awful?

Every time he laughed at something, smiled, or simply looked at me made my heart go crazy, This was the right moment. I opened my mouth to speak and before I could say anything I was splashed with water.

"Jump in, Tobio!", he yelled at me

"I don't think swimming this close to the feet of a waterfall is safe, I yelled back so he could hear me over the waterfall

"It's fine, babe! I do this all the time!", he pulled me into the water and we started splashing each other, the whole thing turned into some sort of competition. When he got tired he jumped into my arms dramatically, I haven't seen him this happy in weeks.

This was the right moment, "I Love You, Shoyo" His face went red, "Uh...I..."

He stuttered a lot before just kissing me, I think that was a good enough of response.

To my surprise he and Woodpecker showed up at my window that night, he had a journal with him. "Do you mind if I stay here a little?", Shoyo asked me.

I said yes but couldn t help but thinking that something was up. He asked to watch "Mamma Mia!" again, fine by me.

Before he went home he asked me to talk, I. Was.

Terrified.

"Tobio, you're the best human I ever met.", he paused. I was petrified.

"And I want to be 100% honest with you, I...am going back to my family.", he looked at me expecting a response.

"Well, that's good isn't it?", I didn't understand the sadness in his voice.

"As a human...I'm going to forget you Tobio...that, was our last date in this timeline.", as the words flew out his mouth my heart felt like a glass shattering.

"W-What do you mean?"

"My time will be turned back, this may be the last time we ever see each other.", how was someone supposed to respond to that?

"I know you keep a diary," he handed me a golden chain and that journal he was holding earlier, "after you write your diary entry tonight, bind my diary and yours with this chain, once it turns rusty you re allowed to remove it, it will not save my memories but if you want to keep yours, that's the way to do it", you may have already been able to tell by the tears on these pages but I'm crying while writing this but I'd rather die than forget Shoyo. He took his broom and kissed my lips one last time, "There's one thing I never got to tell you," he paused before flying off, "I Love You, Tobio Kageyama...and I'm Sorry it had to end like this" and then he flew off"

Notes:

Author is in a period of mental instability, please be nice to Author, they're having a rough time with schoolwork and secretly hopes the school has to be shut down until fall vacation.

Hey so today I found out that Deidara is 19 and not 25 and I feel kinda icky that I’ve been shipping him with Tobi and Sasori who are 30 for almost 6 years, like Tobidei and Sasodei were two of my favorite ships and people don’t seem to care about the age gap so am I still allowed to ship them? Like I feel bad that I still like the ships

Here is a little tag update for my upcoming fic (It’s not near done so I’ll have to redo the draft)

I might rewrite the summary soon tho.

Guys I'm working on some world building for my Naruto AU in this case Iwabee is the son of Suigetsu and Juugo

Moots: @towasuki and @saturnsmoontitan

Context: I'm making family trees with all the ships that will be canon in my AU, this is what it would look like with both versions
