Naruto: Lavender Lotus by Hanakage (Lauren116), Lauren116
Fandoms: Naruto (Anime & Manga)
08 Jul 2026
Tags
Summary
Before he becomes Konoha’s radiant green powerhouse, Might Guy is still just a loud, earnest boy trying his hardest in a world that rarely knows what to do with him. Lauren Hanakage, a young medic-nin with a rare healing eye and a dangerous instinct for running toward pain, sees him clearly from the start, and loves everything about him that other people overlook. As war, grief, and survival shape her genin years, Guy’s blazing spirit becomes the light she keeps turning toward.
Author’s Note:
I’m planning to post two chapters a day for Naruto: Lavender Lotus for now! Thank you so much to everyone reading, leaving kudos, commenting, or just quietly following along. I’m really excited to keep sharing Lauren and Guy’s story with you all. 🌿💚 -

Summary
Before the moon could fall and the world could burn, Sakura Haruno walked away.
Disillusioned by the Hidden Leaf’s politics and the slow rot of the Council, Sakura didn't just go to find Sasuke—she went to replace his master. Now, the Hidden Sound is no longer a den of snakes, but a rising superpower built on the resonance of the discarded and the betrayed.
As the Otokage, Sakura is doing the impossible: she reached into the darkness of the reaper to reclaim the legends of the Whirlpool and the Flame. From the obsidian canyons of her sanctuary, Sakura is pulling the red threads of fate tight. She will protect her family, she will heal her kin, and she will show the Five Great Nations that the loudest sound in the world is the one that breaks a cycle of hatred.
The war isn't coming. The Resonance is already here.

Summary
They failed. Kaguya won. Most of their forces were either scattered or killed. One by one their numbers slowly whittled down. They only had one chance left to fix it all. An experimental time travel seal.
Shikamaru wasn’t expecting them to choose him for the task. Luckily, he was always good at making plans.

Summary
It is well known that Nara Shikamaru is the clan heir. It is nothing that surprises him as he knows he has duties and responsibilities that must happen that he will eventually have to take over.
That includes marrying and continuing the line.
It is one less thing he has to worry about, after all, that has already been arranged.
What he doesn’t know is how much his fiancée will make a difference in his life. For better or for worse.

Summary
Mitsuru Tenji’s life used to be measured in millimeters and diopters. As an optician, he lived by a simple code: everyone deserves "Ten-ni"—the perfect 2.0 vision. He never expected to be practicing his trade in the middle of a pre-industrial wasteland where the "Eye of Insight" is a bloodline trait and "vision" is usually something people die for.
Dropped into a remote, neutral trade town far from the active skirmishes of the Uchiha and Senju clans, Mitsuru doesn't try to be a hero. He just tries to be useful. He builds a life in the shadows of the conflict, grinding lenses from quartz and teaching the local blacksmiths about the geometry of light. To the villagers, he is a wizard of glass; to Mitsuru, he’s just a man trying to fix the world's most preventable headaches.
But word of the "Man Who Sees the Unseen" spreads fast in an era defined by Doujutsu.
TL;DR What would happen if an optician and an optometrist from our modern world is dropped into the Warring States Period?

a priestess to the Spark amongst raindrops by Memoirs Of A Zeitgeist (Memoirs_of_a_Zeitgeist)
Fandoms: Dreaming of Sunshine - Silver Queen, Naruto (Anime & Manga)

Tags
Summary
a spark flickers, lost in the Echoes of what was and what could be. Fractured strands pull together – a Song remembered, a name rising from the void.
Set sometime after Gelel. The Shadow Arts are dangerous, every Nara knows this. She has probably more experience with the consequences of mistakes than some. It didn’t help them (much).
-- hope this is for you and to your liking

“You… really don’t know how to do this?”
“No, I mean it’s not like Pervy Sage had time to talk about it when we were away.”
“Troublesome,” Shikamaru sighed his usual mantra, but still moved to the bed. “Shadow Possession Jutsu,” he spoke, and dark shadows emanated from his body in a slow pursuit.

Summary
Discussions can be frustrating, especially if you have them with a fierce, troublesome woman that still has a score to settle. How fortunate that you can kill two birds with one stone and settle both —the match from the old days and the dispute— at the same time.
Here's hoping it won’t get out of hand... -
