BEFORE GAME START;

YEAR 52 -- BORN [no thread for everyone's peace of mind].

YEAR 60 -- STARTS ACADEMY (FALL TERM; November cramming with Hinata) cram is an art, especially with a friend.
YEAR 60 -- NERD FRIEND GET (Fall; Shino) FOR SCIENCE is an adequate explanation for tickling your new acquaintance until he barfs a little.
YEAR 60 -- MENTEE GET (Fall; Masanori) [no threads currently].

YEAR 61 -- DOUJUTSU GET (Fall; Itachi) this is not the most illustrious way to get fancy eyes, but that'll do, pig. That'll do.

YEAR 61 -- MASANORI STARTS ACADEMY too young to feel this old, but it can't hurt to wish a mentee well.
YEAR 62 -- THAT SHORT-LIVED ACADEMY MENTOR PROGRAM (Fall term; Adela) this doesn't feel like the start of a great success, but it can't hurt

YEAR 63 -- WEAPON BRO GET (Tenten) arguing isn't always the most auspicious start, but sometimes it works. [planning]

YEAR 64 -- ACADEMY GRADUATION (March; Team Obito) [no threads currently]
YEAR 64 -- CHUUNIN PROMOTION (June; fights Gaara) brushes with death should be less anticlimactic than this. [planning]
YEAR 64 -- KIRI STUDENT EXCHANGE (July, Nanako) gallantry and competence are a heartsong.

YEAR 66 -- OBITO, HINATA drinking Chuunin, very ethics.

YEAR 67 -- TSUNADE 30 seconds to not end up with brains on ground.



YEAR 68;

Failure followed failure, but somehow the people around him think he's doing well. Sasuke starts the year in confidence and middles it startled by his brother finally recommending him for jounin. There is no slow easing into jounin life; after his first mission as a lead he's yanked unceremoniously into T&I. This works twofold: the seals that were one failure (a best friend hospitalized) are now a torture device, and a means to satisfy his unexpected tug into informational intrigue via unhappy rumourmongering. The year closed with less confidence, more skill, and the repeated lesson of knowing pragmatism over feeling.

In his personal life, there was an unexpected widening of the divide between himself and his brother -- not in skill, as he's always feared, but in time and space. The latter half of his year is spent more away from home than in it. If there was romance, it happened to Sasuke more than with Sasuke, but he's made -- acquaintances, certainly. Friends, it remains to be seen.



JANUARY;

01/21 -- OBITO [message] sensei why are you like this.
01/22 --ITACHI brother is baaaaaack!
01/23 -- HINATA taijutsu sparring.
01/28 -- ADELA commissioning a weapon from kouhai.
01/28 -- ITACHI brother you should not be sick.

FEBRUARY;

02/07 -- ADELA broke the weapon, also the kouhai.
02/11 -- OBITO sassy birthday gifts.
02/14 -- IZUMO oh you mean brother talks about me?
02/14 -- ADELA kunai-shaped dark chocolate, gotta ask where she got that.
02/14 -- AMI apparently today is kouhai chocolate day.
02/15 -- ASHIKO, HINATA someone probably thinks Sasuke is a lucky dog here.
02/20 -- OROCHIMARU, ADELA, ITACHI, HINATA, ASHIKO, TSUTAKI, PETER two missions collide and almost nobody comes away unscathed; bad enough Itachi, but an underclassman under Sasuke's command, this is just the worst.
02/22 -- ADELA somehow the underclassman thinks it's her fault, what even is this garbage.
02/22 -- OBITO somehow sensei doesn't think this is all Sasuke's fault, this is seriously the rudest.

MARCH;

03/02 -- KUSHINA oh crap, it's Naruto's mom. failing to avoid Kushina works out in the end.
03/19 -- ITACHI [message] seriously, Itachi? thanks for the ceiling burn.
03/20 -- HINATA contrary to all appearances, not dating.

APRIL;

04/03-04/10 -- KUSHINA, OBITO, HINATA, NARUTO every once in a while it's nice to visit another village without any expectation of violence.
04/15 -- SAKURA whoooo's that laaaadyyyyy; apparently someone to train with, best.
04/19-04/30 -- ITACHI getting your ass kicked by your big brother is honestly the best way to spend any amount of time.

MAY;

05/08 -- ADELA not that he has no sympathy for overtraining, but there are smart and dumb ways to do it. this is a dumb way.
05/25 -- EVERYONE Sasuke is all over this post getting auctioned and buying friends and relatives and teaming up with Kushina because of shared concerns about paedophiles.
05/25 -- SEPHIROTH hey you paedophile! why are you so suspicious?
05/28 -- ITACHI any time with brother is money well spent.
05/28 -- KUSHINA violence! violence with swords! the greatest.
05/31 -- ADELA worst date ever. was it supposed to be a real date? oops.
05/31 -- KUSHINA [message] that was a pretty terrible date, please provide the poor underclassman with a better one.

JUNE;

06/01-06/05 -- SOLO [mission report] that was a thoroughly unpleasant mission; never children again
06/06 -- HINATA whoever assigned Sasuke to greet hopeful genin at the Chuunin Exams probably wanted to dash their hopes at least a little.
06/06 & 06/08ish -- KARIN speaking of those dashed hopes.
06/07 -- NEJI world's worst bedside manner, formally filling the med tent.
06/13-06/20 -- SAKURA blessed mission. Not-so-blessed kraken, and why would you even have a fight-means-marriage rule anyway?

JULY;

07/03 -- ASHIKO out of all the teahouses in the world.
07/4-07/13 -- HINATA, KUSHINA, GAI, AZKADELLIA this mission was likely one long Go Girl Go for Hinata, right up until she got a gut wound and Sasuke sealed it up in a panic, nearly killing her in the course of keeping her alive.
07/13 -- HINATA bffl in hospital with bears, gotta keep up a good face.
07/14 -- ADELA this time she catches him overtraining, but he swears that there's a point to this.
07/14 -- SHISUI go away, cousin, concern-misinterpreted-as-judgment not needed here.
07/14 -- SAKURA it's not untrue that genjutsu training can be useful, but there should be warnings for humiliating also.
07/14 -- NARUTO just because you make sound effects for broken bones, it doesn't help.
07/14 -- ITACHI absolutely nothing to do with Hinata's hospitalization even a little bit.
07/15 -- ADELA yesterday, yelling about training tactics; today, swimsuit special.
07/15-08/16 -- SAKURA Land of Sky, more like land of everyone-out-to-get-you and also, giant birds.

AUGUST;

07/16-08/16 -- SAKURA the birds are friends now (same link as last one in July, same mission).
08/18 -- OBITO Itachi did what? When? What? WHO CARES THIS IS GREAT.
08/18-08/31 -- SOLO ok this testing is not so great, and may there never be babies other than birds.

SEPTEMBER;

09/02 -- HINATA fuck da man, assuming da man is House Hyuuga.
09/03 -- NEJI teal deers to ascertain this Hyuuga is not da man; and later, drinking forever.
09/04 -- KAKASHI drinking forever = hangover forever; bless sometimes-sensei-slash-sort-of-uncle-kinda.
09/08 -- ADELA look away from a kouhai for even one second and they lose an eye.
09/08 -- OBITO yelling until it is understood whose fault the above eye loss is!!!
09/16-10/05 -- GAI mission of youth and misplacing said youth for far too long, given that youth is tall and green and bushy-eyebrowed.

OCTOBER;

10/06 -- ITACHI oh hey it's nii-san, hey nii- wait no we're avoiding nii-san, bye nii-san.
10/06 -- ADELA here for one fiasco, but inadvertently relieved of another
10/06 -- HOTOHORI strangers waiting or wandering around the Hokage Tower.
10/06 -- OBITO gonna try to take responsibility for global warming not even in our universe too, just watch.
10/10 -- NEJI, HINATA how gross do we want to get with medical descriptions; AKA strategy to fuck da man.
10/16 -- RIN emerging from endless T&I initiation training to be the worst teammate for a fun event ever, really; rest of the month is just more T&I.

NOVEMBER;

11/05-11/15 -- AMI should you look a gift horse in the mouth if it doesn't many any sense?
11/16 -- KIBA never learn each other's given names, but schedule spar, hopefully with minimal pee.
11/18 -- NARUTO, HINATA the noisemaker is back; definitely no one but Hinata is at all pleased, definitely.
11/19-11/30 -- ADLEA are they ever going to get through 24 hours together without injury?

DECEMBER;

12/2 -- SHISUI mission debrief would be less awkward if there were anything to debrief.
12/3-12/13 -- MIKA I side of T&I is not quite so glamourous as training made it seem.
12/17-01/04 -- NAGATO this mission appears to be to keep company (below threads take place during same mission).
12/23 -- NAGATO send them lanterns, avoid openly requesting that kunoichi.
12/23 -- KARIN why this?
12/24 -- NEJI no more engagement; too bad this isn't a drinking kind of festival.



YEAR 69;

There was a point, right at the end of last year, when this new one seemed more about settling into a role he thought he knew and the continuation of the life he already does. Four days into the new year, that expectation disappeared. Sasuke starts his first full year as jounin grappling with things he thought fundamental; his loyalty to his village, what that loyalty means, and what price he's willing to pay for it.

Just before the bomb drops that Itachi is abdicating his position as clan heir apparent, Sasuke is captured and subjected to -- very reasonable treatment indeed, at first. (At the end, there's the indelible sense-memory of crushing a teammate's eyes with his own hands.) But the things he learns about how the small village alliance operates and their grievances are food for thought, and he finds himself with plenty of time to think in the immediate aftermath as he's taken from active-duty to adopt his cousin's team for the time being. War is clearly on the horizon, and he's learning that shinobi bodies and lives are nothing more than currency.
JANUARY;

01/04 -- OBITO hell in a handbasket at high velocity; first clean sweep.
01/08 -- KAKASHI keep close anyone who will do violence with you, no questions asked.
01/08 -- IRUKA here's one thing that makes a village: troublesome Academy students.
01/08 -- OBITO taking responsibility means leading a team and putting that T&I training to the test.
01/10-01/18 -- SAKURA giant animals are one thing; giant mythical creatures are another; is this a pattern here?
01/19 -- MIKA dust and study and oh a brother-stealer -- er, comrade.
01/20 -- ADELA troublesome Academy students reprise, along with lingering uncertainty about what loyalty means.
01/20 -- HINATA keep up this method of being emotionally available and the bakery will upgrade him to VIP.
01/22 -- YAMATO babysitting apparently means baby-teaching-to-snow-throw-at-new-people-ing.
01/26-02/02 -- HINATA, KIBA tracking is an art that requires a certain dogged tenacity and a pugnacious spirit. [planning]
FEBRUARY;

02/03 -- OBITO thought this mission was over; it ain't.
02/04 -- KAKASHI stress relief for weather and, well, stress; and lightning everywhere.
02/05-02/07 -- OBITO are there regrets about sparring in a lightning snowstorm?
02/05-02/07 -- KAKASHI no, no regrets.
02/10 -- ADELA it's not hypocrisy if he's feeling better and she isn't.
02/10 -- GAARA mystery-solving buddy is back in town: violence.
02/09-02/15 -- HANA, KIBA who's teaching whom? who cares, it's radioactive fire tornadoes.
02/15 -- HINATA, GAI it's not a date, it just looks a lot like one.
02/15 -- ITACHI what the fuck? what the fuck. what the fu
02/21 -- AMI no one's going to die on his watch; not of flu, anyway.
02/22-03/01 -- GAARA 'people are disappearing into Bears'.
MARCH;

03/02 -- ROCK LEE mo' intel, mo' problems.
03/03-03/22 -- HINATA, KIBA a mission westward: pee is a problem, the daimyo's son is a problem, and problems are problems. [planning]
APRIL;

04/04 -- IRUKA how does one say "your parents are horribly dead" in a tactful way?
04/09 - 05/03 -- SOLO; NPCs this could have gone worse, but in that way where only saying "this could have gone worse" makes it seem better; bless T&I training, maybe.
MAY;

05/06 -- YAMATO after a certain amount of interrogation, everyone not wearing a mask looks good, but this is someone genuinely pleasing to see.
05/10 -- ITACHI at least one of us is fine, but what was the point of it all?
05/10 -- OBITO everyone keeps asking about fineness when there's someone else missing eyes; but the investigation is over, at least for Sasuke.
05/10 -- FUGAKU dad? what is dad even doing at the hospital. what is worrying?
05/11 -- NARUTO don't attack the teammate you've known since you were both in utero; don't admit that having said teammate around is in any way comforting.
05/13 -- KARIN so close and yet so far from escape: maybe she deserves this gloat.
05/16 -- GAI MSG how to train children? how is chuunin formed?
05/18 -- AMI Team Shisui having been got, time now turns to training, but this genin is so tiny and her summons are going to be so huge.
05/29 -- FUGAKU to be asked to step up as heir in the void left by your childhood hero: there's no alternative, not really.
