Desperation Attracts Vultures By: Bleedndreamz  

Naruto's goal of earning the title of Hokage seems hopelessly out of reach as he find himself without a trainer for the Chunin Exams. This feeling of hopelessness turns to a deep seeded desperation when he finds himself completely outclassed by his opponent. However desperation is a dangerous thing that has poisoned the minds of many, and desperation only attracts vultures.

TL;DR: Terumi Mei trained Naruto (think shitload of water).

Holy crap, it updated?

 

[sinewyk]

No idea why you called me Meinos but meh ... Link fixed.
And TL;DR, Bleedndreamz seems to be back to the Naruto fanfiction. He didn't suck so that's good for us I guess.

Shit. Sorry. I wasn't paying attention when I posted. Sorry about that.

Both of you have Saitama avatars so it's easy to mistake you two.

I'm mad  :flameon: I have mine since 2013.

 

[Meinos Kaen]

Fufufu. This is is the difference between the two of us...

 

[sinewyk]

You actually change your avatar sometimes :snigger: ?

 

[Shirotsume]

Wasn't MK the dude who had the avatar randomizer for a few years?

I think that was MoB, actually.

Indeed it was. I have never gone near any avatar randomizers, officer. AND I SWEAR I THOUGHT IT WAS AN ADULT ONE!

 

[daniel_gudman]

My avatar is an important part of my branding, I can't imagine using a different one without completely replacing my online identity.

 

[Shirotsume]

I replaced mine once, with the patrick 'let's take this thing and put it over there' picture during the move from oTFF to TFF.

It just felt... wrong. Also people kept thinking I wasn't me.

 

[ankokudaishogun]

Yeah, especially with the design used for TFF and NewTFF, the Avatar is what one associates to the content of a post, not the username.

 

[Stormfury]

Years ago (old)TFF went through a Bleach phase where everyone ended up using a different Bleach character as their avatar, and essentially rp'd as them as they posted.

IIRC, it started with Fosfor using Aizen, and trevelyan1983 began the rp taking up Gin. It just sorta spiraled out of control from there.

 

[rukia8492]

i think i remember that.

edit: huh, just noticed i hit 2000 posts. only took a little over 8 years.

 

[violinmana]

I don't even remember what I had as my avatar before I went full-metal.

Devour
Summary: A starving child can only handle so much before the need for sustenance becomes unbearable. Naruto and the Kyuubi figure out a way to fulfill their hunger without the pesky need of consuming physical food. One-shot.

Can't remember if this has been rec'd before. If so, so sorry.

In Another Life
Summary: In her dreams, Shizune wears the First's necklace and Tsunade wears a smile just for her.

A nice Shizune/Tsunade one-shot.

Naruto was born a Huli Jing in the country Hinokuni, he was adopted from birth only to be abandoned once he was discovered to be a fox spirit. The Goddess Nuwa rescued him, training him to become a demon hunter. His mission to serve her, and protect the people as best he could. Even though, it may just be a little difficult at times, especially with teenage hormones being mixed in.

Dirt and Ashes, or: The One-and-a-Half Body Problem
By: Tozette
The invasion didn't fail. Team seven is long gone. Konoha has burned to the ground. And Sakura finds herself carrying half of Hidan across two countries, leaving a trail of blood, bodies and other people's legs. [Grim, absurd and very violent. No romance.]

I don't think I can sell the story better than its own summary.  If you've got the stomach for the subject matter or a taste for black comedy, then give this story a try.

This is good. Creepy as fuck, too. Kudos to the author for portraying Orochimaru as a mad scientist he was in canon. (Or was hinted at being, anyway.)
