Wait, They Don't Love You Like I Love You

Oh, Naruto, do you know how lame it sounds to have a flashback and then repeat exactly what the flashback just said? Because... it's super lame.

...and now we have more Naruto-pegging.... *can't think of a way to make it more pervy than it is*

FUCK YES HINATA!

Oh, so now love is to blame for war? Get pegged, Pain. How about whiny little brats who don't have enough inner strength to stop the cycle? How about them? Stop blaming other people for the fact that YOU'RE acting like the ninjas who killed your parents. YOU.

Also, whoever on my flist called Nagato's parents being Konoha ninjas... you called it.

Hinata's latest crowning movement of awesome is awesome.

Thoughts: I kinda hope Hinata is dead, because if not, this could lead to a Hinata/Naruto ending, which while awesome for Hinata (and I want her to get everything she wants), would also probably mean a Sasuke/Sakura ending, which would suck.

You know, this is when I wish SO HARD that Kishimoto had let Sakura learn the jutsu to calm the Nine-Tails. Although maybe we'll have a repeat of her running towards him, and maybe this time we'll get a successful beauty tames the best?

Here is my wish for canon, yo. With up so floating many bells down.

I'm in the other camp. I feel like Sakura and Naruto know each other in a way that Hinata and Naruto don't, so NaruHina's never really done it for me. It's always felt so unrequited. Plus, I didn't even *like* Hinata that much until the time-jump.

But now...lately I've been reassessing Hinata and while I'm still bored by her "type" of character, I am did cheer for her this chapter.

And I'm kind of feeling...like I don't want Hinata to be with anyone. Or at least not anyone in canon, not until she's a hot 22 year old or something. I want her personal growth arc to go full circle: as part of loving and learning from her idol, she outgrows her infatuation with him and eventually lets go of that as well.

Years later she looks back fondly on her first love, and she always thinks of Naruto with affection. They fight in more battles together and at one crazy drunken birthday party she kisses him--then she laughs, and he laughs, and she hugs him and tells him, "You're my f-favorite, just w-wanted you to know." When the village of Rain goes into a civil war they fight side by side to maintain the security of Fire Country's borders. One bloody morning Hinata sees the sword before he does, and if Hinata hadn't grabbed his utility belt to pull him into the mud Naruto would have been a head shorter and never lived to accept the Hokage's robes from an eagerly abdicating Hatake Kakashi.

Years pass, they change bit by bit (and down they forgot as up they grew). She sends him holiday cards and invites his family to eat with hers in the home she built across the city from the Hyuuga complex, where she has a husband she loves not because he's perfect or because he's everything she wishes could be; instead he's good and he fits and they're happy because around him she already is what she wants to be, as effortlessly as breathing. And her children laugh while they bicker over who has the best aim, and who is Uncle Hokage's favorite, and none of them, none of them wear a mark.

So, basically, Hinata should marry Iruka. EVERYONE WINS.

I don't think Anko would be a very good wife for Hinata. Now, Anko and Ino... I could see it.

I meant, if Iruka married Hinata, what about Anko?

Although her consoling herself with Ino? FUCK YES.
