Actually, the working title is 'Kyuubi Approaching'. But rejoice! It's not precisemente Kyouji-centric, mostly for my Devil's Duo, Kotetsu and Izumo.  I'm working out canon for Kyouji, so if you notice him being retconned on several occasions, don't worry too much, there's not much in the way of continuity where Kyouji is concerned.  Delena-chan gave me horrible inspiration for a 'verse where Kyouji dies and comes back often and a lot, and everyone's cool with it.  Think Kenny from South Park.

I say 'quasi' because it heavily involves canon characters.  Speculation on the relationship between Minato and Kyouji. 

I forgot to mention here that I updated the Fifteen Accidental Life Lessons. ^^; Here we go:
Starting with Lesson Two and onward

Still doodling around with Kyouji's characterization.  And to think he started out as such a minor character and ass.  Don't get me wrong, he's still an ass, but now he's an ass with reasons for being so, and it partially has to do with his gigantically HUGE Yondaime-complex. XD Don't worry, for those of you with little appreciation for onesided unfulfilled (and largely ignored by Kyouji even though he's the one with the complex) OMCYondaime, it's nothing that shows up in the Fifteen, and very barely in any other work he's in.
His hair color also changed.  You have Delena-chan to thank for that. (It's ash blond in Shinobi Tea, but it's brown in the rest of my work with him in it)
Oh, for anyone who cared, Kyouji's First Appearance.  I'm rather ashamed now that he was so mean to Sakumo, but yeah.


On a separate note, my non-brother Rav is one of my favorite people now.  He gave me a copy of Pokemon Emerald for the computer that he downloaded.  It's addicting, and eating my life even more than my favorite cannon fodder chuunin. 

Just a post from one FF.Net and the dA account. I suppose it doesn't hurt to post in multiple places.

( He sees the two gennin and is not at all impressed, but they don't seemed too thrilled to see him either. )

I've started on a 15-shot project called Fifteen Accidental Life Lessons.  It's basically fifteen things Team Two, aka Kotetsu and Izumo, learned that their sensei hadn’t meant for them to learn, either at the time or at all. Some from team experience, some from Kyouji-sensei’s mistakes. Expect humor, angst, and that Kyouji, I think, is not an OC who is just going to disappear, no matter how much I’d like him to do just that sometimes.

It’s fifteen because twenty is too many, five is too easy, ten is cliché, and twelve is a biblical number. There is nothing remotely biblical about the shinobi lifestyle.

Kyouji will often be compared with Orochimaru for the simple fact that Orochimaru was his jounin mentor and they worked together through a war and far longer than can be considered healthy. He is an ass. Yondaime, too, is an ass. This will not change. (Besides, while Nice!Yondaime is fun, Ass!Yondaime is even MORE fun.)

( Here's the first, and hopefully not the last )
