Just when I thought that I had read every single Sakura/Kakashi fic on the interweb.... (I've hit 'previous' so many times on [livejournal.com profile] kakasaku that it's just giving me dates) I find these:

The Apartment


"When Kakashi first visits her apartment it is one of these nights, and he doesn't stay long - simply warns her to lock her windows and doors. Two weeks later he breaks into her apartment and tells her exactly how easy it is to do so.

She bans him from ever visiting again and ignores him for three days before he comes over with a slightly guilty look and Naruto behind him, the bearer of a huge grin and a bottle of cheap sake."


This fic is fabulous and quiet, if that makes sense. The romance is delightfully gradual, and feels deliciously in character.

Cold Comfort


"When she finally pulls back, he keeps his face flat, discouraging. “We all have our own ways of grieving,” he says in a cool voice. “Some are better than others.”

She doesn’t rear back in hurt like he expects. Her pale mouth turns up in a sad little smile. “Probably, that’s true,” she says.

She kisses him again."


This fic is deliciously atmospheric - the darkness is just palable, and Sakura and Kakashi are delightfully hurt. Also, this fic is amazingly hot. To the point that I don't want to say more, so you can read it for yourself. Let me just say - the boots. I mean - the boots.

And now, some bonus Sakura/Sasuke:

Inside Look


I couldn't pick a section to quote. Just trust me on the hilarity. Okay, I'll give you a hint: Sasuke's social mores meet Tsunade's awesome.

And on the subject of Tsunade being awesome:




Tsunade kicking ass to a song that I love. Also, the implications of the song + Orochimaru and his tongue = win.

Now, this video isn't quite as good, especially with the crappy quality, but I love the acoustic version of this song, and Sakura beating up Naruto never gets old.



Also, all those hot, steamy kunoichi in fluffy white towels? I need that for a wallpaper.

And now, a Kabuto vid, also to a great song:





Props to [livejournal.com profile] enderxenocide for finding this. And also introducing me to this song:





Which is totally a Jiraiya/Tsunade song in my head. As is this one:




Also, some kind soul linked me to this:



Which pretty lol-tastically sums up my feelings on Aang and Katara. Also, Avatar/Beauty & the Beast? Be still my heart.

Have you seen this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwX40ESDu-0

No, but thank you so much! That was awesome!

No problem! I just saw this post and was like, 'I bet Red would like that one.'

There's this as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooKiwMT7z58

Bellzooks just linked me to that.

Oh my God, that Aang video! *Dies of LOL* It's even funnier trying to meld images of teeny, pacifist, vegetarian Aang and big, beefy, meat-and-pelt-loving Gaston together.

That Sasu/Saku fic made me laugh. I kind of like that pairing (under very, very narrow circumstances), but sex God!Sasuke is the silliest thing I can think of. Please. He wouldn't know up from down. It would totally be Sakura teaching him the ropes and freaking him out with kinks. "Girl on top? Whut?" *blank Sasuke stare*
Tuesday, October 7th, 2008 05:54 pm (UTC)
*snort* Yeah, Sasuke would totally think girl on top was a kink.

I handle/link sex!god Itachi much better than sex god Sasuke.

And I don't I thought hard enough about the various personalities of Aang and Gaston, because...*gigglefit*

Aang = so not manly-man. And that makes it hysterical.
That's from the stage version, yes?

Can you image that with Azula singing to Ty Lee? And would that make Mai the Beast?

As someone pointed out, Aang is a vegetarian, so him as Gaston is just... hysterical.

And I'm pretty sure this is from the stage version.

A dangerous ladies version of this would be great.

XD Hahaha, someone should totally post that Aang video to the caps_tara comm and then start up a discussion about how Zuko = beast. ::snigger::

Thanks for the Kakasaku recs!
Tuesday, October 7th, 2008 05:45 pm (UTC)
Someone totally should. I think I'll join and go do that. ^_^

*watches the Aang vid*

*DIES SO HARD*

Oh, god, so Zuko is the beast. If Zuko is the beast, Iroh must be Lumiere. And Cogsworth is Pakku. And Mrs. Potts is the Fortuneteller. And Chip is Meng. SO much love for the possibilities of this. XD

The BatB/Avatar crossover vid concept is very interesting, I have to admit.

I really like the Kabuto vid. :D
Wednesday, October 8th, 2008 05:29 am (UTC)
Yeah, it's a good one.

I read the SasuSaku. I lol'd~

By any chance, can you direct me to where I might find that song in the Kabuto vid? It's fantabulous~

See latest entry.

I dunno if you've seen these vids, but after the potential breakup song vid above, I ended up seeing this vid--> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLrgh4mUnmI

It's Itachi/Sakura btw, but it's made pretty well and it's kinda convincing in a way LOL

And for the lulz, this one's Kakashi/Sakura--> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx5aJMan_kI
