    Bookmarker's Notes

    One of the best original character plot lines I have had the honor of reading. I particularly love political nuances in the Naruto universe and this work of art has taken it to another level.
    We are given a fuller understanding of the world, which we are originally told in a narrow worldview, without force-fed world building, but through organic growth of the characters. We are informed as needed instead of having the information dumped on us all at once.
    Not only does this story expand upon the Naruto universe, but it is still written with implied knowledge, or areas of life not fully explained but still understood. Truly phenomenal writing.

    Summary

    Kiyoomi closes his eyes, slowly. He prays that the ground opens up and swallows him whole. He prays that a whole earthquake rocks Tokyo and brings the place down on him, specifically. He prays that some higher power decides to strike him with lightning right this minute.

    “Actually,” he says, grinding it out through clenched teeth, “you haven’t seen any other kids around, have you?”

    It's Kiyoomi's last resort to ask a stranger for help finding his sister's missing kids, but it's not like this night can get any weirder, and Miya Atsumu's kind of hot.

    Summary

    The "Dekusquad" is a tight-knit group of mostly florists who attend their local university as various majors. Friends since their second year in high school, the dekusquad lives together in a run-down but cheap apartment complex. With stable jobs, great relationships, and solid grades, you would think these friends were living a relatively well life, and they are. The simple downside; their neighbors are terrible.

    The "Bakusquad" is almost exactly like the dekusquad; they're best friends from high school who decided to move into together once they were all accepted to the local university. They, as well, live in a cheap but old apartment complex. The bakusquad is a band, one that is slowly but surely climbing the rankings. What makes them different from the dekusquad? They're the annoying neighbors.

    After a particularly peaceful morning is ruined by the bakusquad's usual loud noises, the dekusquad decides to put their feet down and send in their coldest member, Shoto Todoroki, who accepts the offer. However, when Shoto goes to confront his neighbors, he is met with the familiar face of Hanta Sero.

    Summary

    It’s times like these that Hanta wishes he were… like his peers. Where they can rely on biological instincts and subtle changes in scent, he has to rely on his subpar skill at reading people, on the hope that he can tell when a friend – are they friends, though? – would rather not be alone.

    Hanta looks down at his arm, curled tight around his offered comforts, and lets out a quiet sigh.

    He has to rely on a shared interest in manga, on the sheer luck that he watches Todoroki enough to know which brand of chips he sometimes buys at lunch time, what drink he reaches for from their communal fridge after class.

    Third year brings Sero Hanta new manga, old insecurities, and Todoroki Shouto.

    I love it. It is incredibly dynamic, and the ending scene will make you cry from how sweetly bitter it is.
