hashirama : my wife :-)c….

Hashirama and Mito meet as kids already when Butsuma visits the Uzumaki to go over their contracts and brings Hashirama and Tobirama with him.

Mito is extremely unimpressed with Hashirama - what kind of shinobi and more importantly, future clan head is this boisterous when their entire career revolves around subtlety? What's up with those mood swings? Why is he so stupid, how does he not know basic sealing theory? And don't get her started on his terrible outfit and that hairstyle!

Hashirama in turn finds Mito so mean (meaner than Tobirama even! He didn't know that was possible!), arrogant and just plain snooty. He also does not appreciate being bullied by her with pranking seals just because he doesn't understand how seals work!! If, in turn, he makes her trip on a root every now and then, then that's neither here nor there...

Tobirama and Mito have no such problems. Tobirama finds Mito the fucking funniest person ever and admires her skills in sealing, while Mito is glad to have found someone to talk to on her intelligence level and appreciates his interest in the Uzumaki's sealing style. They hit off immediately and become besties.

The older they get, the more Hashirama and Mito have to restrain themselves. Oh, they still very much hate each other but now instead of pulling petty pranks and outright calling each other names whenever they meet again, they keep it down to passive-aggressive comments - Mito's sharp and cutting, and Hashirama's overly friendly and cheerful.

And then. Well, and then they grow up. Now, Hashirama isn't a gross, snotty kid anymore but a man, a leader, a force of nature, and Mito learns to admire the easiness with which Hashirama knows to laugh and the friendliness he displays despite all the horrors he lived through so far, despite the power within him that could crush them all. Suddenly, the smile she always found makes him look stupid seems quite charming to her and when she talks to him, she finds out he's the opposite of the fool she thought him to be.

He also grows up quite handsome, she can't deny that. She may or may not let her eyes wander more than is appropriate and comes to the conclusion that she very much likes what she sees.

Hashirama in turn learns to appreciate Mito's helpful insights, her creative mind and her knowledge in the arts of sealing which she readily shares with him. He also can't help but laugh at her comments, now that they're witty rather than mean and not aimed at him anymore. And oh, does he find himself enamored by her sharp tongue! Just like Hashirama wields his charm like a weapon, Mito knows to cut with words rather than knives and every time Hashirama thinks his respect for her can't grow anymore, he's proven wrong.

Also, the haughty princess has turned into a fine, poised lady and Hashirama is all but utterly besotted with her beauty.

And well. If Tobirama thought it was difficult when his brother and his best friend used to hate each other, he's really not ready for when they start fucking dating. Absolutely disgusting behavior, Touka, get him some sake for his sanity, please!

7- medium of art you dont work in but appreciate

any kind of traditional painting. watercolour, oil, acrylic, you name it. i simply cannot, im terrible at it- but i think its beautiful and do want to learn at some point.

9- what's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

i had an entire comic strip roughly laid out of wood sprite hashirama that ive forgotten about, but now that you mention it... might consider picking it back up again :)

14- any favourite motifs

hmmmm this is a difficult question. if it can even be considered a "motif," id say a common theme that runs through a lot of my hsmt aus are "mythical creature mito/human hsrm." a bit odd but it appeals to me for some reason!
