(1 – anonymous – Shikako/Sasuke, battle prowess)
Every fight that Shikako has is a new one–she has a near endless list of abilities and the intelligence to utilize them.
But Sasuke has trained beside her even before they became a team, and he knows her more than anyone else.
She still takes his breath away.

“The crown princess of Wind Country’s coronation is next month,” Dad says, blandly, as if he were talking about a particularly flavorless bowl of porridge.
For once in their lives, Shikamaru moves faster than she does, “Not it,” he says, finger to his nose, smug at the sound of his sister cursing.
It’s not exactly Once Upon A Time but, nevertheless, that’s how it starts.

(3 – anonymous – Haku/Shikako, post-canon wandering, home)
No one from Konoha really understands it, the need to keep moving, keep learning, keep growing–if she stops, she’s dead, no matter that all the threats have been dealt with.
But Haku was raised traveling with Zabuza, the wind in his hair and the road beneath his feet.
It’s not about running away from something, or running to someplace: it’s about running with someone.

(4 – anonymous – reincarnated as puppy… B*tch Please)
A bark and a whine and two pairs of puppy eyes staring beseechingly up at you.
The black puppy with white spots licks at your hand; the white puppy with black spots brazenly flips belly up, twitching his paws.
“Fine,” you huff, far less exasperated than you aim for, “But only this once,” you add in a tone that not even you really believe.

“It’s your portmanteau,” Sakura explains, carefully clipping out the newspaper article and handing it over to Ino who slides it into their scrapbook next to a pressed red camellia.
“My what?” Shikako asks, eyeing the floral cover dubiously.
Ino sighs, rolls her eyes, “Your shipping name, Shikako, honestly; your PR team has their work cut out for them.”

A/N: So for anonymous 4′s prompt… I actually already have a SI!OC-as-an-Inuzuka-ninken series–I don’t do much with it, but it seemed to make more sense to use that than to have it somehow be Shikako.
Anyway, in B*tch Please, Aomi is the littermate of Akamaru and also Kiba’s ninken (if Hana can have three, Kiba can easily have two). You can check out that tag if you’re interested in the few other ficlets I’ve done for the series.
