Summary
“This is going to sound incredibly strange,” She started. “But I think there’s something off with the forest.”
Harry tilted his head, confused. “How so?”
“Have you not noticed how odd the atmosphere is? How weird and abnormal the sounds are?”
“It’s very quiet, yeah, but we are in the middle of nowhere, basically.”or
The Forest of Dean has a mind of its own, and comes alive when Harry and Hermione search for refuge beneath its trees.

Summary
Just what the world needs, another Harry and Hermione fall in love in the tent fic. But! Hopefully this is done with heart and definitely no bashing.
They were a few spots away from the last location they were together with Ron, but it didn't stop Hermione from glancing up at the sound of breaking twigs, or the rustle of leaves, or the quieter whispers of wind. By some animal instinct, every time she glanced up he did too. He couldn't help but think of frightened deer, their ears pert and rotating, eyes focused, alert, listening for wolves. The main difference for them was that they wanted the wolf to come.
His glanced away from the empty forest to Hermione's dark eyes, still searching. "He won't find us." He used the sharp tone again, he still didn't mean it that way.
Her eyes moved to his, injured, her mouth bowed in pain. He felt a stab of remorse. To his surprise she moved closer to him instead of turning away. Their spheres of sadness had been separate the last few days, their moroseness quiet, however loud it felt inside his head.

Summary
If someone had asked 13 year old Haruno Sakura what she wanted to do with her life, she would have said something along the lines of “marry Sasuke-kun and have his babies!” and certainly not “befriend an infamous psychopath and make Sasuke-kun hate my guts!”
Alas, no one ever asked her.
Busy trying to be a decent sensei, Kakashi unwittingly gets involved in a plot that spans from the deceased fourth Hokage to Danzo himself… and completely misses the slow yet pervasive changes happening to his female student. Not until it’s too late, anyway. (He always is.)
Starts off cracky, gets serious

Slightly cracky, very funny. Kakashi is exactly as hilariously infuriating as he should be

Bookmarker's Notes
A very thoughtful meditation on the nature of violence and vicious cycles and prisoner's dilemma in the Shinobi world. Loved every word of it. I wait for updates with bated breath.
