...thank you for the exaggerations 🥰  lol

I couldn’t find the one where Hinata has a painful period, but what grates at me is the premise sounds really familiar, so I’ve probably read it somewhere😓.  I’m tagging some others to see if they can help out: @chloelapomme, @amj338-2, @your-internetfriend, @darkmoi10, and anyone else!!!

I think I found the 12th anniversary one!!

“Sunny Evening” from “Sol and Luna” by @char-lotteral - Rated M, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. NHWeek 2021 Day 1: Sunflowers- Hinata has been feeling a little neglected lately, she hadn't known that these were the consequences of being married to the love of her life.

Here’s some similar fics that I came across while searching:

Naruto Watches the Kids

“An Important Mission” and “Fabled” from “Day After Day” by @spyder-m - Rated G, Canon-Compliant (?), Two-shot. Hinata decides to return to active duty.

Untitled by @flowerslut - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Prompt: “I’ll be right over.”

“To Welcome You” by @eliphya - Rated G, Canon-Compliant (?), One-shot. Naruto and his children have chores to do before Hinata comes home again.

“Bed Head” by @utsus - Rated T for language, Canon-Divergent, One-shot. Naruto and Sasuke are in charge of doing their daughters’ hairstyles for the day. Everything is a struggle.

Married For Long Time Anniversary

“and we’re all together again” by @datte-ba - Rated G, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. the disbelieving laughter on her lips makes no sound, but it exists: in the part and the smile and the gleeful curve.

“The world is going to end with or without us... So we might as well enjoy it while it lasts.”

Oh, the city's cold and empty                                                                 No one's around to judge me                                    I can't see clearly when you're gone

I said, I'm blinded by the lights No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch I said, I'm drowning in the night Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust

I'm just walking by to let you know                                                                I can never say it on the phone                                  Will never let you go this time I said, I'm blinded by the lights No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch

I finally finished Ali’s IC apartment! I’m very happy with it and feel like I was able to maximize the space without making it feel too cramped! 

DEFENSIVENESS.

arms  crossed  on  chest  /   crossing  legs  / fist-like gestures / pointing  index finger   /   karate  chops   / stiffening of shoulders  /   tense posture /  curling  of  lip  /   baring  of  teeth /  tail lashing  /  pinned ears

Note: Depending on the kind of defensiveness she feels, Ali might place her hand on her weapon, shift away from the offending party, or simply try to escape the situation by turning/walking away. If she’s feeling particularly cornered she’d likely rub or touch the aetheryte earring she always wears.

REFLECTIVE.

hand to face gestures /  head tilted  / stroking chin  /  peering  over   glasses  /   taking  glasses  off  — cleaning   /   putting  earpiece  of  glasses in  mouth   /   pipe smoker  gestures  /   putting  hand  to  the bridge  of nose  /  pursed lips  /  knitted brows

Note: She tends to be more curious than reflective. When she’s really deep in thought her eyes tend to glaze over.

SUSPICION.

arms  crossed  /   sideways  glance  /   touching  or  rubbing  nose  /  rubbing  eyes   /   hands  resting  on  weapon  /  brows  rising or knitting together   /  lips  pressing  into  a  thin line / strict  unwavering  eye  contact /   wrinkling  of  nose /  eyes narrowing

Note: Most of these are also indicators of other emotions in Ali too, but definitely things she would do when suspicious. She is a little paranoid sometimes, so her body language might veer towards defensive/suspicious by default, but she can be quick to warm up to the right people.

OPENNESS + COOPERATION.

open  hands  /   upper  body  in  sprinters  position  /  sitting  on  the edge  of  a  chair /   hand-to-face gestures  /   unbuttoned  coat  /  tilted head  /  slacked  shoulders /  relaxed  posture  /  feet  pointed  outward  /  palms  flat  and  facing  outward

Note: Uhhhh... Ali’s not very much of an open book. Or very co-operative. She’s more of a half-truths type of girl and leaves much up in the air about herself. If she’s being open and co-operating with someone, she’s more likely to be stressed out about it and worrying about what they might think of her (because she knows what she thinks of herself)

CONFIDENCE.

hands  behind  back / hands  on  lapels  of  coat  /  steeped  hands  /  smirking /  baring teeth in a grin /  rolling shoulders /  tipping head  back  but  maintaining  eye  contact /  chest  puffed  up  /  shoulders back  /  arms folded just above navel

Note: When she’s feeling very confident or trying to put on an air of confidence she’s likely to stand straighter and try to bring herself to her full height (even though she’s small to a lot of people)

INSECURITY + ANXIETY.

chewing  pen  or  pencil  /  rubbing  thumb  over  opposite  thumb /  biting fingernails  /  hands  in  pockets /  elbow  bent  /  closed  gestures  /  clearing  throat  / “ whew ”  sound  /  picking  or  pinching flesh  /  fidgeting  in  chair /  hand  covering  mouth  whilst speaking   /   poor eye  contact   /  tugging  pants or clothes /  jingling  money  in  pockets  /  tugging  at  ear  / perspiring hands / playing  with  hair  /  swaying  / playing  with pointer or  marker  /  smacking  lips  /  sighing  / rocking  on balls  of feet /   flexing fingers  sporadically  / chewing on lip  /  pacing

Note: Despite the airs she tries to put on Ali is often feeling insecure or anxious in general. She worries about many things, but tries to put on a brave face outwardly. It doesn’t take much to have her clasp her hands in her lap, squeezing all the tighter as she gets more uncomfortable.

FRUSTRATION.

short  breaths  / “ tsk ”  sounds / tightly clenched hands /  fist-like gestures  / pointing  index  finger /  running  hand  through  hair /   rubbing  back  of  neck /  snarling  / revealing  teeth  / grimacing   /   sharp-eyed  glowers  with  notable  tension  in  brows /  shoulders back,  head  up  / clenching  of  jaw / grinding  of  teeth /  nostrils  flaring / heavy  exhales  /  tail lashing  /  pinned ears

Note: *imagines miqo’te furious emote*

fireworks.

dancing until the break of dawn, Heelys, being wheeled around in a shopping cart by your best friend, the euphoria of soaring through the air, being excited for what the future holds, group hugs, colorful tattoos, bronzer-highlighted cheeks, hugging a stuffed animal, lifting a child onto your shoulders, space buns, bright streaks in your hair.
