Weight of acts

by JulianCasablancas

Sarada follows the ronin life of her father, still fuelling her hate for the hidden villages. Her 'not too peaceful' life takes a turn when she gets imprisoned by Konoha, but she was never the type to wait quietly. She will use the perfect tool to get out of here quickly, the Hokage's son. Therefore, bad decisions will disrupt both of their lives. BORUSARA

6. Author's notes ( not a chapter )

Hi,

I hope you liked my story. Here's some notes if you want to know a little bit more about it.

With that story, I wanted to break the baby trope, because it's often the girl who has to take care of the kid. For me, it perfectly makes sense to make the switch since Boruto's personality makes him more likely to be a present father as a response from his absent father. On the other side, Sarada is the more 'career focus' of the two, and she shares some resemblance with her father. She doesn't need as many interactions with others as Boruto and can be cold. I was really happy, to find a way to get Boruto to take care of the kids.

Talking about the twins, I felt like in the Naruto series each generation is centered around a pair: Sasuke and Naruto, Boruto and Kawaki... So, I feel like the next pairing could be twins. What Saraboru's kids would look like we don't know yet, but it would be a nice surprise to bring back Kushina's (The Uzumaki) red hair ( the Haruno family too, I guess ). For the name too, I was really satisfied. Since only Boruto chose the names, they could not be too much related to Sarada. Haruto was obviously in the same line as Naruto and Boruto, and the first letter is the same as Hinata and Himawari. As his twin sister, Haruna has a similar name, and their name is a hint of the last name of Sarada's mother.

My story follows obviously the enemies-to-lovers trope, but I also wanted to play with the code by making the woman the 'criminal ', more stoic, and cold-hearted one. Often, those are desired traits for man. I'm really excited to see how Boruto's character in the series will evolve. I'm guessing he will get some of Sasuke's traits, but in my story, he was a mix of Naruto (positive and playful) and Hinata ( caring and soft ).

I hope you find the arcs of Sarada and Boruto interesting and realist. Their relationship was maybe a bit rush because I wanted to keep the story short, but I did not want it to be random.

Another concern I had was the kids' credibility.

Let me know what details you like and what you think about the relationship progression and the kids' credibility. As I wrote, it became obvious that I was mostly writing dialogue. It might be confusing to read sometime, but I like the rhythm it gives.

Those were my thoughts, thank you for reading. I hope you enjoyed it.

See you in the next fanfic.
