teamwork -- baby drabble again.

[askerian]

This time for joisbishmyoga, who requested Baby's first babysitter.



"I said I'd do it. No need to trouble yourself, Iruka-sensei, I'm sure you get tired easily now, what with all your students demanding so much time -- and don't you have essays to grade tomorrow anyway?"

Falsely concerned tone, parried with falsely grateful voice.

"Thank you for your worry, Ino-kun, but as a matter of fact this week was dedicated to practical tests. And I have lots of experience with children..."

"But babies and pre-teens are probably very different..."

"Not so much, I assure you, but it's nice of you to worry."

Harried sigh.

"Sakura-chan, your mom called, she says to drop the baby at her place before we go, and don't forget a ton of baby stuff I'm not even sure we own in the first place."

Outrage.

"What? You asked your mother already, forehead-girl?"

Eyes rolling.

"No, I didn't actually, I -- ohh, shush, baby, shush..."

Cooing.

"Baby wants auntie Ino, don't you? Oh, yes you do..."

"Ow."

Return of the false politeness.

"No, let go of Iruka-sensei's ponytail, love, you're hurting him..."

"Ahh, if that child wants to come with me, I see no problem, really..."

Heavy sigh.

"Hinata? It's Naruto. Listen, are you busy tonight? I have something to ask you..."

I think Iruka calls Sakura Sakura-kun in canon. As far as I know (and I could be wrong -- Mikke?) that's not because he thinks she's a guy; that's because he acknowledges that she's young and way under him in hierarchy, but still not intimately close, like family or lovers would be. So it wouldn't be out of place for student/teacher relationship. That was today's lesson in fangirl japanese. yay. XD

NaruSasu through Sakura's eyes. It's a short fic, but I love how it manages to say so much in so little words; just a few understated observations and comments and yet -- ahhh ;_; anyway, i lovelovelove. You read.

Little-Joo actually means to format dialogues that way, people. It is her way, and you get used to it. personally i like it. it's just so her. XD *loves on*

Hinata. Hee hee hee hee hee. She'd probably be a good babysitter, though.

[askerian]

probably, yeah ^__^

[miko-no-da.livejournal.com]

I've seen men refer to women as '-kun' ocassionally, especially in a teacher/student or boss/subordinate kind of situation.

So cute. ^_^

[askerian]

whee! i didn't fuck up. *cuddleloves*

thanks ^__^

[blackheisei.livejournal.com]

::Snicker:: I love the way they're fighting over who gets to babysit. give it a few years under it's Fathers' influance and no one will be quite so eager.

[askerian]

XDDD hell yeah.

"what? but it was my turn last week!!"

"and I got to babysit ALL WEEK during the last vacation. Your turn."

"Sweetie? who do you want to babysit you?"

"... mmn.... EV'RYONE!!" *sunny smile*

[blackheisei.livejournal.com]

::madcackle:: Suddenly Ino's always busy, Ikura has too many papers to grade....Grandma will babysit. Grandma's are always willing, cause the kid is never quite as wild at her house.

[askerian]

XD and when they get it back, it will have its hair well combed and will spout outdated teaching methods -- "grandma said..."

this icon always cracks me up.

[lissiel.livejournal.com]

That was totally adorable, asuka. And it sounds like sakura's mom finally comes around, eventually, which is good... after all, this baby, regardless of gender, is clearly going to be the most darling wonderful thing ever born to man, and it should start off right at the beginning with everyone knowing it, right?

And your babytheif!iruka has totally stolen my brain. ^_^

[askerian]

*^^* thanks!

yah, she does at some point. after all, this IS her grandchild, and it IS the indeed most darling wonderful thing born to man. (even though it is a demon spawn in all meanings of the word XD)

haha! now i want to draw babythief!iruka.

[pastles.livejournal.com]

I think Iruka calls Sakura "Sakura"

Buuuuuut... Ebisu calls Sakura, "Sakura-kun" *knows this because she just watched Naruto again tonight*

[askerian]

whee, thank you ^__^

[animeprincess.livejournal.com]

eeeeee *loveslovesloves* bebesitter Iruka would be amusing.

*tugtugtugtughappybabylaughter*

>_T ow. ow. ow. ow. ow. Naruto was never this much trouble...

****scene 2****

Naruto: @__@ Iruka-sensei...I need you to babysit...

Iruka: Parental level N^10~! O__O of course, Naruto-kun.

[askerian]

!!!! XDDDDD I love. *cuddlelicks you*

[kiyakotari.livejournal.com]

**snickers** Oh my... are they....fighting over who gets to babysit?

**snickers more**

I'm really in love with the kid already, and they haven't even really shown UP. That's talented, Asuka.

[askerian]

yeah.

you haven't heard? i'm magical ^___^-v

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

Agreement. This use of 'kun' is appropriate. ^^ And fairly respectful, which is Iruka for you.

[askerian]

*dances* yay!

[rainbowlasers.livejournal.com]

Kakashi calls her kun. And Sasuke too.

o_O I know he calls Sakura 'kun' because it had scarred me when I heard it the first time. Wasn't sure if it was only for boys XD Well it isn't!

Nice fic, btw. **pokes** Now I can just see the baby being a girl. So Sakura doesn't have to be alone with an army of men =3 So cute.

[askerian]

kakashi does? i forget. And i'm pretty sure sasuke never calls her anything but her name. never uses suffixes with anyone but kakashi, i think. (will need to check though -- but for most people he knows sasuke doesn't bother)

aha! but maybe it's a girl, maybe not. you have a 50% chance.

or maybe a 33,33% chance, seeing as Kyuubi is involved. XD

Yay!

[windshades.livejournal.com]

Yay! More baby drabbles! *snerks* I loved that Ino and Iruka and Grandma all want to babysit! Absolutely adorable! Every single time I read one of these baby stories, I end up walking around the house with a goofy smile on my face...more soon? maybe? please? *wanders off smiling goofily*

Re: Yay!

[askerian]

#^_______^#

gimme ideas and maybe i'll write them. :P

Re: Yay!

[windshades.livejournal.com]

Ooh! Okay! *squee*
1)actually seeing babysitting adventures...do any "demon spawn" type powers manifest? like Jack-Jack in Disney's "The Incredibles"?
2)the terrible twos--"THAT IS NOT A TOY!!!"
3)Family picnic? The *entire* family--including the willing babysitters?
4)Parents learning to care for the baby--how the daddies deal with who has to change diapers, clean bottles, that kinda thing?
I'll offer more as I think of them...

Re: Yay!

[askerian]

heh. 1, 3 and 4 will definitely happen in teamwork proper, so i can't drabble them, and as for 2, i don't know how i'll do that without giving details about the baby x___x;;;;

Re: Yay!

[windshades.livejournal.com]

That's okay! I can wait...not patiently, but I can wait...See? *sits staring at the computer screen, waiting for the site to be updated*
Hmm...as for other drabble ideas...??? I'll offer more later...my brain isn't being creative right now...sigh...

Re: Yay!

[askerian]

which site? o.o;;;; if you mean my personal site, i'm probably not going to bother for a little while :p if you mean my lj, uhhhh. well. hahaha. hehe. oh, a butterfly.

(ok, so i'm being lazy and not writing anything, when i promised to finish stuff today. so bad. XD)

Re: Yay!

[windshades.livejournal.com]

I check both frequently...
It's okay that you're being lazy. I've been lazy all day. It's the first day of my summer vacation, so I understand the feeling. *looks at the SF story I SHOULD be working on* Oh, look, sparklies...

Re: Yay!

[askerian]

SUMMER VACATION????

I hate you with the burning passion of a thousand chidoris.

Re: Yay!

[windshades.livejournal.com]

Mwahahaha! Yep, and I graduate next week! Woot for getting my associate's degree!
Don't hate me! I'm a nice person...most of the time! *snerk* *offers you a sparkly*

Re: Yay!

[ashphoenix.livejournal.com]

I know the feeling! I don't get out til June 22!!!

Re: Yay!

[ashphoenix.livejournal.com]

Hi! I'm windshades sister! Nice to meet you! i just got a LJ so i haven't been able to respond before... Anywho i think it would be interesting to see Kakashi babysit...

Re: Yay!

[windshades.livejournal.com]

*pets the sister* Such a good little girl...see, I got her hooked on your work, too. Then I talked her into getting an lj so she could comment on it.

Re: Yay!

[askerian]

heya!! nice to meet you ^__^

O_O Oh My God kakashi with the baby.

I love you. *starts typing away*

Re: Yay!

[ashphoenix.livejournal.com]

thank you! *BIG SMILE* I'm loved! HEHEHEH! -sorry way to much soda- happy typing!

[rushthatspeaks.livejournal.com]

The cute! Yay!

Speaking of cute: This. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v384/Dr_Hyde/Random%20Stuff/babynaruto.jpg)

Usually I don't go for this sort of thing much, but this really is adorable and the fic reminded me of it...

[askerian]

heh, yeah, i know that pic already. in fact.. *points at icon*

[rushthatspeaks.livejournal.com]

Perfect, perfect icon. Yay.

[askerian]

*licks your Kirua*

[rushthatspeaks.livejournal.com]

*licks back and suddenly has this picture of Kirua and Neji together and aasfdjhgfakljk brain 'splode*

[rainbowlasers.livejournal.com]

Ahaha no I meant Kakashi calls Sakura and Sasuke 'kun'...

I speak weird. XPP Anyway, he calls Sakura 'kun' and Sasuke 'kun' but I don't think he does that with Naruto- weird- but Itachi has this odd obsession with calling him kun that I will never understand but Itachi is weird anyway.

Sasuke calls Kakashi sensei. The rest can all die for him XD Mm.

Gwuh, baby drabbles... Why do I have a classic 'diaper-changing' mental images? XD Gah, Sasuke changing diapers. Why does that sound appealing? :3

[askerian]

yeah,kakashi always seems to keep his distance with naruto. and akura too, though he pretends a bit more. he only ever sees sasuke for real. T_T

itachi and oro make me feel Pervy Vibes whenever they call sasuke or naruto -kun. it's like, "come a little closer, i swear i'm friendly..." when you KNOW they're not. *shudders*

the diapers thing will happen in teamwork. :p

[rainbowlasers.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Diapers! Muaha.

And- yeah. Oro is scary when saying Sasuke-kun. Kabuto too, especially since he says for both boys. And Kabuto is ebil. Just hides it.

Kakashi's evil when keeping his distance. You'd think he has some sort of obsession with Sasuke.

... Or maybe he wants to repay his dept to the Uchiha clan? ...

That would be cute, but maybe he's just too lazy to take care of three students. Gnuh. He's just weird. **pokes him**

[purple-angel01.livejournal.com]

hee. I see you're on a roll with baby-drabbly-things ^_^.

p.s. oh, so that's what 'kun' means when it's used on a girl? I get so confused in Fruits basket when they call tohru 'tohru-kun', but I guess it makes sense.
