Summary
Kakashi just wants to finish his decade-long mission when his attention is suddenly grabbed by the mission desk chuunin who dares to stand up to him.
~
Or: The one where Kakashi openly walking around in his ANBU uniform actually makes sense, because he’s ANBU's poster boy (with a secret mission).

Summary
[[internal jump links at ~8k word intervals for easier navigation; both chapters posted at once]]
At the question (or maybe just Nami, a reprieve from talking to Zoro—who he's still vaguely afraid of) Usopp perks up. “Kind of! I mean, yeah—the big Sun God in the Trench. But also the sea gods themselves, and the missing Moon God—it’s a whole thing,” he says, waving his hands as Nami crosses the deck, book tucked under her arm. Usopp trails off again but she gestures him onward and plops next to Zoro, dangling her feet over the open water, too.
“Go on,” she says.
He stares at them both before letting out a strangled kind of, “Do you actually want to know?”
Zoro and Nami exchange a look. “We have a keen interest in the local wildlife,” Zoro drawls, and Nami snorts out a laugh. The sound startles Usopp, who might be one of the most skittish people Zoro has ever met—second only to Koby, maybe.
Nami elbows Zoro in the side, trying (and failing) to hide her smile as he flips her the middle finger in return. “Local legends, then,” she amends.

Summary
Hyrule is what’s known as a “borrower.” Standing at 3 inches tall, he’s a fairy that borrows from his humans. He only borrows little things though, things that if missing would be inconsequential. It was a simple life.
Sometimes though, instead of seeing it as simple, Hyrule saw it as lonely. Being alone took its toll on everyone, and Hyrule wasn’t an exception. So what if he befriended his humans?Series
