fun uncle kankuro is at it again

My thoughts on Shinki learning puppetry…I think it’s something he decided he wanted to learn on his own. His ambition makes him want to have any skill at his disposal HA. He truly encompasses the essence of the Sand: Iron sand, wind style, puppetry.

also LISTEN…Kankurou has been WAITING for this moment. He absolutely custom made Shinki’s puppet since like the beginning so it can be used with his Iron Sand. (also lowkey HC that Shinki is actually not good at chakra threads so he uses his sand to manipulate the puppet instead)

BONUS: earlier right after training

About Shinki’s facepaint. I just think it’s so cute the design the appears to be inspired by the one on Gaara’s gourd…

BONUS: Sand Siblings reunite right before the Chunin Exams

In which Kankurou is a doting uncle and Gaara learns the rewards of becoming a father. 

BONUS: Kankurou gets his moment

Also, some Shinki who greatly respects his father and cares about him A Lot.
