    Summary

    “Shinobi die,” the Matchmaker tells her bluntly. “Life as a shinobi is hard, ugly and beyond all thankless. It will be much easier for you to bring honour to your family through a suitable marriage than as a kunoichi.”

    “I know,” Sakura says, though she truthfully thinks that she has very little idea of what life as a shinobi is actually like. She raises her chin, meeting the older woman’s gaze. “I want to become a kunoichi.”

    Sakura is raised by her sickly mother and her late father's clan. The clan wants her to become a lady and marry a noble, but her mother wants her to become a shinobi. In the end, Sakura will have to make a choice. But even as she makes her choice there is no guarantee that she will succeed.

    This is the story of how Sakura becomes a shinobi.

    AKA, the one where Kakashi has been a soldier since he was five years old and has no idea what to do with a little lady-in-training.

    Summary

    Timothy Jackson Drake was born as heir to Jack Drake and son to Nemesis on a humid day in July. It took the baby demigod an hour to open his eyes and if anyone bothered to look closely, they would see his tiny fist clutched onto a wisp of shadow like it was a lifeline. Alas, like many things about Tim Drake, this was unobserved.

    —-

    Basically Tim is a half-blood and has to deal with the consequences of that and the fact that he lives in Gotham.

    Summary

    "You propose double-suicide to every woman you meet,” Ranpo lists on a righteous finger. “You abandon him in dangerous places when he specifically tells you not to, and ultimately,” the detective pauses, pulling two digits into a solemn fist—

    “You left him first.”

    Call the cops, Atsushi thinks, there’s just been a murder.

    Summary

    How does a child grow into becoming part of The People without being told the stories They are supposed to share by word of mouth and word on paper.

    Sometimes he wonders if They were told the warnings of being alive from Their parents.

    If you don’t watch, your child will be taken by a fairy.

    If you don’t pay attention, a changeling will switch with your child.

    If you don’t love your child, a beldam will steal them away with attention and obsession.

    He wonders if They cared at all.

    As Tim sits criss cross on the JL meeting table while everyone converses heatedly and worriedly about the mysterious magical creature they’ve noticed in the forest near where children have gone missing, he can't help but absently mourn the children in the photos as he thinks of memories from long ago.

    Warnings are often only given too late after all.
