Happy Narusaku Day 🌸 🍥

NaruSaku fake day*

Can't erase history when there's records boo 🤷

Happy birthday Shinachiku!

🥳WHO IS CELEBRATING WITH ME TODAY?🤩 🍥🌸 9 years ago, the NaruSaku fandom came together in one of the most beautiful creative expression I have ever witnessed. 🧙We alchemized the pain of loss into the love of creation and that is how Shinachiku Uzumaki was born. 🥳To celebrate his birthday, I played around with the concept sketches PumiiH sent me before the final version was set-up, to create some sort of scrapbook kind of thing, symbol of the good ol’ times.

Rambling about “My Children are Perfectly Fine” series:

First off, I need y’all to see the beautiful commissioned art @pumiih made. It just furthers my point that artists are actually witches in disguise. Pumiih took my ugly ass sketch and made this beauty:

Like look at that! Look how handsome my son is!!! Best money ever spent. My pink son is named Haruma Todoroki. He is my fun parallel to Natsuo in my series. And by fun, I mean fun for me, not so much for the characters in the story.

Here is my attempt at drawing him again, this time with his name next to him. It’s incomplete because hair is hard.

The kanji are crap, but essentially his name means “spring” “dance, wheel, flit”. Rei had agreed to carry one more child in hopes that she could free her existing children from Enji’s mad ambitions. When Rei was pregnant with him, there were two names settled on for him. Akito (“autumn” “move through/soar”) if he had been born with white hair or Haruma (“clear/sunlight” “protect”) if he had been born with red hair. She had hoped that Haruma would develop the fire based quirk with a self cooling ability that Enji wanted. Don’t yell at her, she was desperate to save her existing kids and decided that this was the best way to chew off one limb to save the others.

Of course, he was born with pink hair, and no one was sure what to do. Rei wanted Haruma but Touya and Fuyumi chose “spring” and “dance, wheel, flit” kanji instead of the ones she wanted. Both of them were aware of the ramifications of Haruma’s birth. Touya chose spring because this new brother was born in the fall but with sakura petal looking hair (typically big brother bully moment) and Fuyumi chose the second kanji because she wanted her new brother to have a carefree, happy life. Natsuo was sulking because he swore that the pink hair meant fire and ice mixed to form water and he couldn’t think of a kanji that had the right pronunciation to sneak in. Shouto was just happy to vibe with his siblings for once. No one noticed for about two months, and Rei didn’t have the energy to go down to city hall to change it (her mental health was deteriorating) while Enji figured he’d change it if Haruma actually developed the power he wanted him to have.

Of course, Haruma’s Homeostasis came in and was deemed not good enough, so with Rei in the hospital and Enji not caring, no one changed it to the “right” kanji. Homeostasis is seen as a much weaker version of Half-Hot, Half-Cold by Enji, with the added flaw of Haruma’s Quirk tends to reverse from one end of the temperature equation to the other. Shouto was stuck as Enji’s successor while Haruma is essentially raised by Fuyumi (and Touya when he still lived at home).

Similar to his siblings, he has a very strong sense of right and wrong, but because of the power dynamics in their family, Haruma feels powerless to do anything. In the presence of his parents, Haruma prefers to be invisible because his black and white views of right and wrong (he is 9-10), leads to a lot of upsetting cognitive dissonance where he can’t reconcile their words with their actions (mostly Rei since she does love him but is unnerved by how much he looks like Enji and his missing older brother (Natsuo), and she was in the mental hospital for as long as he can remember and doesn’t remember her good mom moments like his siblings).

Whereas Touya and Natsuo are about 4.5 years apart and had the opportunity to be close since Enji deemed them both as failed creations, Shouto and Haruma are about 4.75 years apart and haven’t been allowed to interact because of Enji’s rules. Touya relied on Natsuo emotionally and was close to him while Shouto decided to bear the weight of their family’s problems on his shoulders alone and pushed his younger brother away in an attempt to shield him. Both Haruma and Natsuo failed to succeed their older brothers like Enji had wanted them to. Because of their looks and Shouto’s status as the golden child, neither Haruma nor Natsuo had the chance to be close to their mother and relied on their older siblings to take care of them.

Ladies & gents, I present to you
