Leaning Against the Sun by SubTextual & o0Famous Amos0o (NC-17)

Fandom: Naruto
Pairing: Gai/Kakashi
Length: 17,567 words
Author on LJ: SubTextual's LJ & o0Famous Amos0o's LJ
Author Website: Unknown
Why this must be read:

Alternating btw Gai & Kakashi's POV, Leaning Against the Sun is a stark look into the complex relationship between 'Eternal Rivals'. A dark insight taken when the characters are 19, this exposes all the wounds two ANBU carry and what makes them both such effective ninja for Konoha.

I really appreciated the author's writing this as a stream of consciousness, it gives the story a bleak, bitter feel which I never thought to get from Gai. It's stark and pointed with Angst dripping but there are glimpses of hope for the future. Wish these authors wrote more of this pairing but there is also some incredible Kakashi/Sasuke available on SubTextual's LJ as a bonus as well as some Kakashi/Iruka artwork. Yum!

Ponder Leaning Against the Sun and leave feedback to feed author.
