    Summary

    "The chronicles of the Frost Throne tell that every ten winters, the dark waters demand their tithe. They say the Sea Leviathan, a colossus carved from the ancient ice, emerges to devour the Tsardom's offerings. On that frozen floe, silence is the first law of survival."


    Kakashi Hatake was raised under the military rigor of that implacable North. But after being accused of treason for saving a girl from sacrifice, he ends up chained to a rotting boat, delivered as a tribute into the jaws of myth. Kakashi expects death or the agony of the abyss.

    Instead, he awakens on an island of eternal spring where time becomes elastic. The fearsome monster turns out to be Iruka, a Sea God as herculean as he is clumsy, who prefers gifting him raw fish rather than devouring his soul, and who protects three banished orphans. As the ice in his chest begins to give way to the warmth of this stranger, Kakashi will discover he has not washed ashore to die, but to learn how to live.

    Summary

    After the invasion and the death of the Sandaime, Iruka is left behind in Konoha to pick up the pieces as Naruto leaves for his special training. It's a lonely time, and it's a tough one. Everyone is struggling, from his littlest students to his shinobi friends, and Iruka is no different—the days pass in a haze of work, rebuilding, and comforting those around him.

    Then something absurd happens. When an ANBU crawls through the window of Iruka's classroom after hours, half feral and positively begging to fuck him like a hound might beg for food scraps, Iruka surprises himself.

    He says yes.

    Summary

    “You’re boring… and weird. You’re like chicken and rice; tasteless and pointless.”

    Those words settled inside him like a stagnant echo, a mantra that beat rhythmically against his skull until it silenced his heart. Suddenly, the wool of his sweater weighed on him like armor made of thorns, and the tea lost its warmth. He always sweetened it generously, but that afternoon the sugar seemed to have given up; the flavor was a sour stain that tore a broken smile from him. With a slow nod and the crystalline shimmer of someone who no longer knows how to hold back tears, he let the world become a blur behind his brown eyes.

    Iruka Umino enjoyed being an NPC—a background character, a filler role of no importance. He watched other people fall in love; he watched other people be happy. But eventually, being a mere witness came to an end, and it was his turn to take the lead in his own story


    This work is part of a series, but it works perfectly as a standalone story; you don't need to read the other parts.
