Figured Me Out by CrazyLabRat for Theycallthewind, Fly_by_n1ght
Fandoms: Naruto (Anime & Manga)
17 Jan 2025

Summary
Kakashi isn't sure how...
No one else has ever even suspected.
No one else has ever recognized him in this disguise.
No one else has ever walked this close, stared into his eyes, and whispered his real name before.
Gai had done something similar, sure... But he'd never actually guessed that it was Kakashi.
And he'd discarded any suspicion over it that he might've had, almost immediately.
So, why was it that Umino Iruka, of all people, had been the only one to figure it out?
Or:
The one where Kakashi underestimates Iruka...

Summary
I'm not sure how it happened.
Not really.
Alright before anyone makes any stupid fucking jokes, I guess I should be more clear.
I'm not a dumbass, I know how it happened, physically... just not emotionally.
I know he's lying.
Stupid fucking hero.

Summary
Warmth and bright light.
Those were the first things to register in my waking brain.
Then, it was the exceedingly careful touches.
What could only be fingertips, were caressing, stroking, and tracing the features of my face.
Fingertips, yes.
Slowly tracking the length of my nose, traversing the line of my cheekbone, following the curve of my jaw, and flowing over the bow of my lips.
Gliding ever so tenderly over the scar that cut across my nose.
My heart stuttered.
It's early, still.
The birdsong in the trees outside my windows, and the brightness behind my eyelids tell me so.
Everything was as it should be, but with one small exception...
I have no idea who is touching me.
I have no lover.

Summary
Kakashi had always known he'd die in battle.
He'd always known he wouldn't live to be an old man.
He'd never wanted to leave anyone behind.
He didn't want to leave any pain in his wake.
Iruka thinks Kakashi is an idiot.
Kakashi eventually agrees with him.

Or the one where Kakashi doesn't mind waking up in the hospital

Summary
Not only has Iruka posted this openly to Tumblr, but he'd also sent some sound recordings and photos to him through discord.
It was torture.
He'd definitely meant to get Iruka hot and wanting and ready for his return.
But he'd miscalculated how much Iruka could best him at this particular game.
Or:
The one where Kakashi finds his way home.

Summary
It all started with Minato-sensei and a seemingly innocuous comment.
There were always children without parents, who didn't have anyone to make sure Santa visited them for Christmas.
For years, the ninja rotated the task of Santa.
But now everyone who'd ever volunteered had their own families.
Their own houses to keep.
"Children without parents need something to believe in. They need... hope."
Or:
The one where Kakashi learns to love the holidays

Summary
Never once had I ever thought my deepest desire might come true.
That he'd want me.
That he'd crave me and my attentions even half as much as I craved him and his.
For years, I'd kept silent. Never thinking that he'd ever return my most tender of affections.
My silver haired lover found oh-so-many ways to prove me wrong.
Daily.
Or:
The one where Kakashi keeps his word

Summary
"How old were you when you had your first kiss?"
The question was both unexpected, and yet apparently typical in this situation.
I've never removed my mask for any of my partners.
Not once.
My reasoning being that if I wasn't in love, there was no need.
And I've never been in love.
Or:
The one where Kakashi plays, but only with Iruka.

Summary
It's been awful.
I'd even go so far as to call it hellish.
Three days of running home in the thundering rain had been bad enough, mind...
But today, there'd been trouble.
Or:
The one where Kakashi just wants to get home.

Summary
I stood, trapped. Not only by his hands and physical body, but by a light shining in his eye as well.
I swallowed, and forced air in. If I could breathe, then surely I could find a way to speak as well.
"Why these words? And why this play? I don't always find your games so irritating... But this one really isn't very nice. Not to my mind."Or:
The one where Kakashi's playful side is showing.

Summary
I'm not even sure what I'm doing here.
The village-wide celebration is for me, sure, technically.
But I've never been one for parties to begin with.
If I could melt into the shadows, I would. But alas, it was not to be.
Not tonight.
My eye scans over the crowd, searching.
Even though I know exactly where he is, I can't make it obvious.
I have to pretend to see everyone.
But there's only one person who matters.
Only one set of eyes that I wish would look my way.
Or: The one where Iruka is brave, and Kakashi needs help to match that bravery in turn.

Summary
It doesn't mean anything.
I've told myself that at least a hundred times today, but even as I held the small carefully wrapped bundle in my palms, I knew that simply wasn't true.
It was a step.
A significant step.
It was a step towards someone else... with the hope that they'd reach back out to me, too.
Or: The one where Iruka makes the first move.

Summary
I tell myself it's not on purpose... that I'm only here because Anko said I needed to actually begin to exist again.
So she'd dragged me out, and I'd let her.
I try and pretend that I hadn't heard he'd be here.
Pretend that seeing him, is a complete shock.

Summary
"That's not everything, not quite. What I vowed was this... I'll be the shadow at your heels, always. As near as you'll allow. Yours until there is no heartbeat in my chest, nor air in my lungs. But even then... it'll still be true. I simply won't be here to prove it to you."
I furrowed my brows, confusion flitting through my mind as well as my features.
Isn't that what I'd said?
A small chuckle graced his throat and slipped out into the air as his fingers left my chin to trail down my cheekbone.
"As near as you'll allow."
Oh... but...
"But you... you don't mind?"
~
Or: The one where Kakashi can't, and won't, leave Iruka alone. So he vows to stay. Iruka just can't seem to figure out what that actually means.

Summary
Kakashi likes it when Iruka starts talking.
Especially when he gets naughty.
He's weak to perverted words, particularly from typically reserved and kind of prude sensei's with adorable scars and pretty almond eyes.
But there's something else there, hidden in those eyes, and those words... such pretty colors.

Summary
My sense of control over my own words and actions has always been tight.
Always.
Out of both necessity and survival.
But it extended too far... grew and morphed into this disability. I am severely lacking, socially speaking.
That hasn't ever really bothered me before.
Not until him.
Iruka.

Summary
Yes, he had a penchant for wiling away hours on end via reading erotic poems and stories. That much was common knowledge to all who've ever crossed his path...
But that wasn't what had him so enthralled.
Well, it was, but... for more than just the typical reasons.
The author was the main attraction here.
Umino Iruka.

Summary
"I love and respect you both."
Six words.
It only took six words to break my world apart.
"I'll miss you."
That's how he was gonna leave things.
It didn't matter that we were meeting up for drinks at Mccarthy's later.
It didn't matter that his locker was empty. Or that the box resting on the bench in front of him was so small.
There's no way it could contain everything he meant to us.
To me.
It couldn't hold the smallest fraction of what we've all been through here in this lab. It definitely couldn't hold my heavy heart, either... But he was going to leave with both in his hands, all the same.

Summary
"You've never let your lovers see your face?"
I shrugged, and took a long sip before responding. Choosing to ignore his now blatantly shocked expression.
It was amusing though.
And very cute.
He'd probably wanted to know why he himself had the privilege that so many others were denied. But if he wasn't going to ask me specifically, then I didn't have to answer him specifically.

Summary
"You gave me something I can never repay, not even in a hundred lifetimes... You gave me a family. It's small, and he's too energetic, and he snores, and he never really listens when I tell him to clean his room. But he's pure, and kind, and loyal, and he's my family. And the only person responsible for that is you. So, Hatake Kakashi, from the bottom of my heart... I thank you."
Or:
The one where no one gives up!
