Hina Digger has updated to Chapter 11. It's a pretty good Love Hina/Gold Digger crossover.
Keitero really should avoid taking more flights from missles...
And Granny Hina and Dr. Diggers don't like each other...

Building Keitaro by The Perilous Monster Eater
I thought I knew who I was before mom died. Then my father got drunk, my little sister called me dad, and I had to get a job. Granny Hina, however, changed everything.

Updated to chapter 4 today. Haruku is being a little b in this chapter, not sure what the author is trying to do with her. Maybe he's trying to create a rift between her and Keitaro? The recent reviews on the chapter express a lot of what I'm feeling.
Nice story so far though, I'm hoping Keitaro's backbone won't disappear in front of this particular family member. And am I the only one that doesn't care about Mitsune's past?

I get the point, and I don't think Keitaro is taking it out on anybody. I think HE is harsh, but hardly out of line. They just left that life, and now stumble on another person like it, that scares his DAUGHTER. His first priority is protecting her, NOT the duties Haruka seems to want to tack on on the title of manager. He LEFT to protect her. Haruka could have handled it differently, instead she is seeming to favor her makeshift family instead of her flesh and blood.
If you want to say that Keitaro should have handled a bit better, I won't argue with you on that.

Except to protect her, Keitaro has to learn to live with the people of the dorm. For that matter, it's certainly not in Kanako's interest to show that it's okay to lash out at people just because they bring out bad memories. Keitaro certainly has extremely good reasons to act the way he does, but that doesn't make it right.
Again, Haruka was harsh. Real harsh. But she's far from a bottle of sunshine in the manga and she caught a bad situation. That doesn't make it better, but it's fairly IC in my opinion. And what she said is something Keitaro needed to hear. Maybe it's too soon to expect him to make an effort on this, but fact is that Kitsune is here, she isn't going anywhere and alienating her isn't going to help anyone. It's hard on Keitaro, but he's going to have to move.
Which is of course not nearly as easy as I make it sounds. Considering how this has been wrtitten so far, it's not going to happen overnight, which make for great drama. :sisi:

I'm probably going to sound like a heretic for this but the fic writer Cizzymac seems good at making palatable Keitaro x Naru fics like No Pain, No Gain

The thing is, Keitaro is also there, and unless Haruka is really planning to send a schoolgirl back into an abusive situation, by physically beating her guardian out of the house no less, and lying to granny about it, he's also going to stay there, alienating him isn't going to help anyone either.
So hey, Kitsune might have to move a bit too. And it's not like her learning not to bring alcohol with her everywhere, or at least not bringing it around the children, is a horribly bad thing for her to start working towards.
Keitaro is reacting badly to Kitsune drinking, yeah, Kitsune is reacting badly to Keitaro being twitchy.
Haruka is acting atrociously about keitaro being twitchy, and seems to be treating Kitsune's apparent drinking problem as a minor eccentricity at best, this is not helping the situation at all.
As drama it's fine. But if and when the author starts taking sides and showing which one is in the right and which is in the wrong, it might become a real problem. Because in this situation, none of the three is looking particularly good, Haruka quite possibly least of all.

This. She was technically in the right, but the way she went about it seemed petty. Kitsune and Keitaro have good reasons for reacting so poorly to each other, Haruka doesn't have a reason for reacting badly enough to use physical force on someone and threaten to send them back to a shitty situation that would (and probably has) screw up the rest of their life. That whole moment actually turned me off to the fic, I'll still read it for a bit, but if it doesn't get better, I might just drop it.

Still doesn't excuse pressing the kind of buttons that lead to an instant bitch slap. Some lines you just don't cross, even if you're trying to make a point. Guarantee you that if Haruka showed up drunk at the dorm, Keitaro would tell her to stay the fuck away from him and Kanako.

Ummm... I agree with the getting past that part... but it is not exactly like that would be a false statement for him to make if he did state it... he has spent the last few years living in hell because of it.
Also... has it occured to anyone that maybe this harsh outsider view of Kitsune is exactly what she may need to clean up her own act. While not there yet or currently, it is not beyond possibilty her own life cound be going that direction... look at her own statements to Naru on it.
Alcohol, on the levels drunk by Kitsune and some of the other, is not only not good for them... but a bad example for the younger residents...

As this seems to be the spot for it:
Parallel Lives by Nodoka Miyazawa.
A realistic look at a possible Keitaro/Shinobu match; though the outcome is by no means certain.
More importantly, Miyazawa-san seems to have doubts as to the merit of her efforts. I encourage the Love Hina fans to take a look at Parallel Lives and let her know what you think.
