MY NAME IS ITACHISHUSBAND, I used to be Sasori33-001 but my profile pictures were never pictures of Sasori and I thought it was kinda confusing. Before that I was Itachi012110, but due to a conflict of creative differences (not really) between the co-auther of the account and myself, I no longer have what I need to get back into said account. So hello again! (or nice to meet you!)

MY STATUS: Updating what I want, when I want, and most often without rhyme or reason

NEXT STORY I WANT TO WORK ON: I Want to See Itachi Uchiha Naked (currently working on chapter 2~!)

*STORY STATUSES UPDATED (JULY 10TH)

ABOUT ME

Things I like and things I dislike: Hmm...I don't really feel like telling you that.

Dreams for the future: Guess I haven't really thought about any.

And as for my hobbies: Well...I have lots of hobbies!

I am currently enrolled in school which means that 9 months out of the year I am bogged down with school work. If you think about it, that's an entire pregnancy! :D

I also hold 3 part-time jobs so when I get home from school, I'm working and when I'm not in school...you guessed it! I'm working! :D I do have a bit of free time here and there but planning the details of my stories and actually writing them usually exceeds the amount of time I have (I can't dedicate my entire day to writing! I have to eat, sleep and shower too sometimes!) so I just say "forget it." and watch TV instead :/

Why did I start this account? For the reviews. I love to write Naruto fanfictions but what's the point if I have no one to read my work? That being said, reviews usually help me update quicker~ *wink wink*

I put a lot of time and effort into the planning and writing of my stories. You'll see that in a few of the author's notes I leave at the beginnings or endings of the chapters I upload.

I have at least 2 fics that are progressing very well so far. Due to that, I don't see myself quitting them any time soon!

I have a few other fics that have at least more than 2 chapters which I will get around to whenever I see fit/have the time/scrounge up the motivation to continue #Melodrama

I have started a few fics that have very few chapters (one or two). They've been started! Which is a plus! And because of that, I may one day return to them! (most likely when one of my major fics comes to a conclusion). So fear not! I will come back to them soon or later...

And then there are the ideas I have listed if you scroll down some. The chances are that I won't start them. They're just ideas. I most often start ideas that are not listed under the new ideas section of my profile page hehehe...and they're vague because I'm paranoid that someone will write them before I get around to doing so.

If you're ever interested in what I'm currently working on, check out the heading further down titled "CURRENT STORIES."

ABOUT MY WRITING!

Naruto is my thing. Most, if not all of my stories will be based on Naruto (characters, universe, etc.)

Itachi is my favorite Naruto character. Most, if not all of my stories will have him as the main character.

I believe not every story featuring Itachi and Kisame has to be a KisaIta. Therefore, I try to write a story every now and again where they are either simply friends or just co-workers.

But at heart, I am a KisaIta fangirl (a fate which, according to The Secret Sal, I cannot run from lol), and thus I will publish lots of KisaIta. That does not, however, mean that I am any good at it or will regularly update it as I suck at romance both in real life and online~ But nonetheless, I will write the occasional lemon or if I'm in a particularly interesting mood, I will write smut. It all depends really.

I also enjoy pairings that are not between Kisame and Itachi, but I will rarely write them (as I said before - I am a KisaIta kinda girl and that is a fate that I cannot run or hide from~) I do enjoy reading them though~ :3

"For now, let's be friends and have some fun, eh? And hope that we each will not be the other's final opponent." - Kisame Hoshigaki

Q&A:

Q: If I ask you to read something of mine will you read it?

A: Most likely. How fast I read it depends on the time of the year (if it's between September - May it will take longer as school and work are factors and if it's a national holiday then work/family time are factors) and what the story is about. If it's in line with what I like, I will probably read it more quickly.

Q: Why not become a beta-reader?

A: I barely have time to write my own stories let alone proof read the work of other people. (That and I don't proof read my own work all that often! lol)

Q: Could you edit a story of mine if I asked you to?

A: Hmmm...as much as I'd like to I'd probably decline because like I said, I am busy working or doing school work and don't have a whole lot of free time for myself :/ sorry!

Q: If I asked you to write a story idea of mine would you do it?

A: Again, probably not :( As I've said before I am a very busy person. On top of that I do not like the nagging feeling in the back of my head telling me that I should be doing something for someone else or that someone else is expecting something of me - it makes me feel rushed and pressured and I hate that feeling. More often than not I would rush through it to get it done as fast as possible so I don't have to think about it anymore :/ I also have very high standards as to what I read and write and if a story/story idea does not conform to those standards I will not be all that interested :( And lastly, I have enough stories and story ideas of my own on my plate currently and that already bothers me - them not being finished, not being started, loose ends, loose ends! :((((

Q: Are you always this grouchy?

A: I like to think that I'm not a grouchy person by nature. I sound very forthright on my profile page but outside of that I can be very bubbly and excitable (unless it's late at night or during the school year - then I do get grouchy). But I do enjoy stories that fall within the parameters of what I like to read, and I do enjoy getting lovely story reviews (because who doesn't?)

Q: What sorts of stories do you like?

A: Let's see...modern AU's as in - takes place in the real world. From time to time I will read something set in the Naruto-verse but not often these days. I primarily seek out KisaIta stories though it's not uncommon for me to find an ItaDei, DeiIta or ItaDeiIta story or SasuSaku, or SasuNaru/NaruSasu, or SasoDei to read. Oh, I also enjoy fics wherein Itachi is sick (my guilty pleasure~)

Q: What types of stories/things don't you like?

A: I don't like stories that involve OC's, anything with the word "crack" in the title or summary, stories titled "Title" or "The Title Goes Here" or something that probably took 2 seconds to come up with, summaries that read like "I honestly don't even know what I'm doing so read at your own risk" and such -_- . I also don't like to read stories that involve pairings I've not listed under my favorite pairings -_- (why would I?). Lastly I do not like to read stories that have only 1 chapter and less than 1,000 words to it :/ (though stories that are more than 30,000 words tend to scare me away too...)

Personal note: While there are a lot of things/stories I dislike, I'm not about giving nasty reviews to show my dislike. If I genuinely liked something I will comment on it in a review. If I didn't like something, I won't say a word about it or just not leave a review at all.

CURRENT STORY STATUSES (In order of probable update): as of JULY 10TH:

Q: What is the method you use to calculate these?

A: I have a word count I like to shoot for in each of my stories. Therefore, if I'm aiming to write a 4,000 word chapter and only have 573 words written, I round the number of words written down or up to the nearest hundredth, divide it by my goal and multiply the answer by 100 to get a percentage.

I Want to See Itachi Uchiha Naked: 30% - I am proud to say that I am working on chapter 2 as we speak! Expected update: By the end of the week at the earliest.

Shisui's Guide to Being a Wingman: 0% - I know what needs to occur in this chapter and I have a plan but I've been too absorbed in writing the story above that I haven't worked on this one yet. I have a plan though! Expected update: By the end of the week at the earliest!

Parallel Lines: 0% - I have a plan of action for ch. 46 but I'm still trying to work through ideas for the upcoming chapters. Gotta plan ahead! Expected update: :/ ???

The Perfect Gentleman: 0% - I have an idea for the next chapter. I just need to sit down and write it (lately however I've been conjuring up new ideas and writing a different story every two days it seems - it's like juggling. Adding this to the mix would be equivalent to adding another ball so I'm waiting for the right moment to start it...(meaning, I'm waiting to hit a road block with the other four before I tackle this one! lol) Expected update: ???

New to This: 20% - There are still a few plot holes I need to fill before I can fully write the next chapter. Think of the first chapter as a movie trailer of what is to come...? Expected update: ???

Things Better Left Unsaid: 50% - I know this comes as a surprise, ("YOU MEAN YOU'VE ALREADY WRITTEN HALF OF IT!? FINISH IT ALREADY!!!!") but some things came up. Things in life that sort of tie into this story came up around the time that I was writing it so I put it on hold. That and there was a time when I was trying to decide if I should majorly revise it or not so...quite simply, I've put this on the back burner. But the good news is that life has subsided for now and I want to push through and try to complete the outline I drew up a few months ago...hehe... *nervous head scratch* Expected update: ???

STORY STATUSES THAT DON'T CHANGE VERY OFTEN:

The Boy with the Ponytail as of MAY 25TH - Ah, guys...I have no motivation. I'm not saying that I'm giving up on this story completely but I don't think I'll be working on it any time soon. Who knows? Maybe I'll pick it back up when you all least expect me to! (that and I want to change the writing style and I'm lazy so yeah! :D) Expected update: ???

Hello, My Name is Officer Sasuke as of OCTOBER 29TH - Every now and then, I get a spurt of energy and decide to come back to this old thing that I started with hopes of getting reviews...I just updated chapter two not that long ago, but I don't know what I'm doing with chapter three so it might be a while - sorry! Expected update: ???

Shisui's Guide to Being a Wingman as of AUGUST 17TH - So I feel super bad about some things concerning our dear Shisui (I'm sure some of you know what I mean~ :( and to compensate for some of my wrongdoings, I put EXTRA thought into the plot of this story to make it up to you all! (and am proud to say that I made some great progress!) Expected update: ???

Through Broken Lenses as of AUGUST 7TH - As I've said over and over again, I don't know what I'm doing. I have a twig for a plot and a solitary leaf for an ending which seems like eons and eons away from where I'm at now. To make matters worse, all of the ideas I had for this story a couple of months ago have changed with the current flow of the story, leaving me to come up with new ones. To say the least, this story is so much more popular than I expected it to be and I'm finding myself crumbling under the pressure to quickly deliver the same quality I've been winging since chapter 2. In short, I need to have a really long conversation with a friend to get the ideas flowing, or I just need some time to think up some new ideas. Expected update: ???

Temporary Hiatus as of JULY 6TH I'm thinking about working on this one again sometime soon. That being said, I would have to reread what I already have to get back in on the action and with "Parallel Lines," "Things Better Left Unsaid," and "Through Broken Lenses" (and work and such) eating up all of my time, I don't know when I'll get around to it. Expected update: ???

A Small Adjustment as of OCTOBER 29TH - Yeah, I usually come back around to this idea every summer. And when I do come back around to it, it'll probably be re-written. (The problem is I get overwhelmed by the number of characters, which, I know, is my fault, and then I get bogged down knowing that I butchered the laws/logic of adoption). That, and I don't really have a plot. In lay-man's terms: You may never see an ending to this fic.

I have a ton other fics which I don't intend to turn into long fics like the ones above, but I need to plan them out first. You may or may not see them in the future. On another note, I cannot upload them just yet because...well...I might drastically change them later. I dunno yet. It's bad enough to leave you guys hanging on an incomplete fic, but to turn around and change everything on you, man that's cold. Expected update: ???

STORY IDEAS - SUMMER 2016

I know I started a whole bunch of fics last summer and didn't really do anything with them and I know I have a shit-ton of ideas listed below that I never did anything with but times change and I just go with the flow. So these are ideas I sorta wanna try out this summer. A breath of fresh air or a pop of color if you will.

1. "The Joys of Single Parenthood" - A KisaIta version of "Through Broken Lenses"

2. "Maybe Next Time" - A story wherein Itachi and Sasuke have a strained relationship and bank account to match and must find a way to peacefully co-exist under the same roof.

3. "Bucket List" - A mixture of the past and the present, Kisame, Itachi and Sasuke.

4. "Better That Way" - A love story between Sasuke and Naruto that starts out very rocky.

OLD STORY IDEAS

1. "Itachi-sensei" -- An [AU] wherein due to the recent death of their parents, Itachi, a young education graduate, is forced to move back home and take care of his little brother and gets a job teaching English at his high school. Fortunately for his classmates, their new teacher is smokin' hot and seems to be genuinely interested in their success. Unfortunately for Sasuke, their teacher had to be Itachi...

2. A KisaIta based on demographic parallels -- I wanna do a story where country meets city. Kisame's a country boy who comes from a family that doesn't mind getting down and dirty to get the job done and Itachi comes from a hardworking city family. What happens when the two fall in love and worlds collide?

3. Handwritten and Folded into Fourths: A sad KisaIta (I don't wanna divulge the details just yet!)

4. A high school KisaIta - A KisaIta wherein Kisame is the epitome of testosterone, according to his father. But if that's true, why is he falling head over heels for another man? And how will this affect his life as he knows it?

5. Father son bonding time! - Itachi is about to marry Kisame at the end of the summer, but before that happens, Kisame and Mikoto devise a plan to have Itachi reconcile his relationship with his father so that he can walk him down the isle when the big day comes!

6. Bucket List (this idea is fairly new and I wanna work out the kinks of the summary before I say anything more about it!)

7. Nightmares, Dreams, and Something in Between: Another sad KisaIta (but not as sad as #3)

8. Love is Patient, Love is Blind

9. *NEW* I wanna write a SasoDei (cringe!) a song-fic sorta deal if you will~

10. *NEW* I also wanna write an DeiItaDei~ (double cringe!) I think it'll deal with abuse (Deidara's not the abuser and neither is Itachi in case you're wondering!)

12. I'm thinking of another song-fic involving Itachi, Kisame, and hospitals~~~

as for the other 3 fics that are actually published on here by me...I dunno when I'm gonna get around to them. I probably should update Officer Sasuke, and need to re-read Temporary Hiatus to get an idea as to where to go next *sigh*

Little known story facts that would be awkward to include as author's notes:

"A Small Adjustment," as I mention over and over, has been written numerous times. You can find the earliest versions under my old pen name, Itachi012110. They're called "One Big Dysfunctional Family" and "An Act of Goodwill." The main ideas behind each rewrite is as follows:

One Big Dysfunctional Family: I had this grandiose idea that the Akatsuki should all live together. The only problem was in this idea, they all worked together, and were grown adults moving into a house together to work on their teamwork (and you thought A Small Adjustment was bad in the way of logic). I will say, regardless of it's logical-fails, it's very funny.

An Act of Goodwill: This is where the idea of adoption started. Same core concept; Pain (yes, I called him Pain in this one, and he preferred to be called such in the story by his adopted children) and Konan adopted the rest of the Akatsuki. The problem here was that I had the social workers drop each kid off at their house (which they were standing inside on the fourth floor until they saw all of them had arrived and were sitting on their front porch). Yeah, that one didn't make it too far...

A Simple Adjustment: The same as my current fic, but the style and quality of writing left a lot to be desired.

A Small Adjustment: The current fic.

Both Ways: This fic has never really been written yet, but I foresee it being written in the future. It's a story where Yahiko and Konan only adopt Itachi and Deidara and we see how that goes.

But yeah, if you have any questions about any of my stories, leave a comment in the reviews and I'll PM you back as soon as I get around to it! (Promise)

When the time is right, I will share with you the inspiration for Parallel Lines (within the fic as an author's note). However, now is not the time as it would give away an important story element that we haven't yet seen *shhh!*

I will also, at some point, share the original summary for "Things Better Left Unsaid" which explains the nature of the title original title "With Shaking Hands"...I can't do that at the moment either because...well...I don't know how the story will end *sob*

FAVORITE CHARACTERS (MOSTLY IN ORDER):

1. Itachi (God bless this boy's soul; he's had it so hard; God bless)

2. Kisame (God bless this boy's soul for taking care of the aforementioned boy's soul during his time of need and sticking with him until the very end; God bless)

3. Shisui (God bless this boy's soul for suffering the way he did - i.e. Danzo stealing his eye; and God bless him for being Itachi's (probably) closest friend in life)

4. Chouchou (God, I love this child)

5. Sasori (Good Gaara, that honey sweet smile and seductive voice and beautiful hair flip)

6. Deidara (Oh, somebody bless this child, he's so dear)

7. Hidan (how could I forget this poor, misunderstood child? Jashin bless this boy's soul)

8. "Tobi" (not Obito, not Madara, just "Tobi" - somebody bring him back, I miss him so!)

9. Nagato (Yassssss...Nagato in the HOUSE! *whoot*)

10. Konan (#AkatsukiLady)

11. Pain/Yahiko (his English voice actor, Troy Baker tho - God yessssss)

12. Tsunade (This woman - God bless her *especially when she beat up Sora*)

13. Jiraiya (And God bless this man...for everything he stood for, and everything he taught us)

14. Sarada (interesting girl, this one is)

FAVORITE PAIRINGS (IN ORDER)

1. Kisame/Itachi (KisaIta) Just about every pairing I write will be KisaIta. I LOVE this pairing.

2. Deidara/Itachi (DeiIta) I NEVER thought that this could be a thing until I read "Subduing a Fox" and now I am entirely, and utterly in LOVE with it!

3. Itachi/Deidara (ItaDei) Even though I love, love, love, love, ItaDei, I can't seem to write it very well.

4. Shisui/Itachi (ShiIta) I'm surprised by how much I'm enjoying this one...but I will probably NEVER write it (I just can't do it man)

5. Naruto/Sasuke (NaruSasu) Who knew a French fanfic would lead me to liking this pairing? (Thank you Yocklane!)

I also like SasuNaru but it's a tricky thing to explain. If I ever write a romance between Sasuke and Naruto, it'll probably be a SasuNaru because I can't conceive of it in my brain any other way but I don't mind reading NaruSasu (if that makes sense...I don't actively look for either pairing when I'm looking for something to read but if I do, it'll most likely be NaruSasu...)

And CANON PAIRINGS. (Though Sakura would've been better off with Lee, but that's neither here nor there...andddd InoSai makes me kinda mad, but whatever; I'll deal.
