Summary
A collection of one-shots as well as one multi-chapter story. Alternate Universe all around, with more or less nods towards canon.
Main characters are Kakashi and Iruka, with the occasional other characters added into the scenarios if needed.
The plots are merely the creations of a writer who is a fan of what-ifs, if you will, so each story can be read as a stand-alone piece.- Words:

Summary
After a string of botched missions, Kakashi receives a mandatory break from active field duty. Stuck in the village with little else to do, he begrudgingly accepts an assignment to a short-staffed mission desk for the duration of his leave.
The only person more unhappy about this than Kakashi is Iruka Umino.

Summary
Kakashi Hatake was used to missions where everything was simple: a target, an order, an outcome. The shinobi Academy did not belong on that list. Iruka Umino was used to carrying the fragile, noisy world of children on his own shoulders and to not expecting help. A forced partnership. Reports, students’ tears, and far too much time spent side by side. Trust forms before either of them realizes it, and closeness becomes a threat that cannot be ignored. As long as the lights in the Academy stay on, each of them will have to decide where his line is drawn.

Summary
After years of settling into a comfortable life as a sensei, Iruka is pulled back into the field for an S-rank he has no business being on, utilizing an ability he’s hardly ever trained, with the same mission captain who had overseen his final fuckup in the field years ago. A mission captain who doesn’t seem particularly happy to be working with him again.
Iruka probably wouldn’t be particularly happy about this, either, if he wasn’t focused on just trying to make it home alive.

Summary
It’s not Kakashi’s fault that he keeps finding his way into Iruka’s apartment. Iruka should have better home security, really.

Summary
Returning from summer break with a freshly scarred back and a sort-of-adopted student, Iruka resolves to deal with absolutely no nonsense this school year. For an entire morning, he manages to convince himself that it’s even a remotely realistic goal.
And then, of course, the strange, moderately off-putting, and more than a little infuriating new gym teacher has to barge into his life.
