Fic ideas I haven't published to the archive Tag: "fanfic idea".

Portal Fantasy TobiIzu

Izuna grows up hearing stories from his amazing older brother about a fun adventure in a mystical land. Madara eventually grows out of those stories, but Izuna still clings onto the tales which his brother swore were true at the time.

Madara's now gone off to college and Izuna's being pressured to grow up and think about his future.

Enter: Tobirama

He has travelled from the magical lands of the Senju in search of the brave young hero who helped his brother save it many moons ago.

Instead, he finds Izuna, who he decides is probably good enough.

When Izuna goes with Tobirama to the other world, he finds that things are actually kinda terrible? Yeah, he gets access to awesome powers and there's talking animals and such. But there's also a constant war and death and peril which Madara left out of his retellings.

Or maybe things have just worsened in the decade and a half since his brother was last there.

He doesn't have a choice but to continue. Tobirama would sooner kill him himself than let him back out.

Izuna uses his memory of his brother's stories along with his own wit to make it through the quest. Along the way, he and Tobirama get pretty attached to each other.

Still, this isn't a story anymore, and in the final stretch, something terrible happens...

#madara's suffering combination retroactive ptsd and disillusionment so he's pretty much blocked all memories of his adventure out#tobiizu#fanfic idea#izuna's like 17/18#he's got no plans for college or work#he's getting into bad habits and hanging out with the wrong crowd#exactly the kind of protagonist for a life changing (ending) fantasy adventure!#Madara does end up going back once he's told Izuna's there and in danger#the something terrible is izuna like dying or something#but due to fairy tale logic#he's either put under some sort of sleeping curse#or his life is tied to tobiramas#and he can't go back to the real world where there's no magic or he'll find himself quickly un-alived#(using that term ironically)#anyways madara's pissed his bby brother's life is practically ruined#oooh#or or or#hear me out#at the end of the journey Izuna decides to declare himself ruler of the realm#and tobirama agrees to be his enforcer#did he just go mad with power or is a cursed artifact at play?#is Tobirama pulling the strings behind the scenes?#where the fuck is hashirama?#all good questions#madara's like: return to our world you have a life here#Izuna: Okay but here I have magic powers a handsome advisor and citizens who have to do whatever I tell them to#this madara kills someone and is wracked with so much guilt he blocks out the memories surrounding it#this izuna kills someone and goes#'huh neat that really solved the problem that person in particular was posing'#and then internalizes that

i'm keeping you in the time loop. it's the only way i know how to keep you safe. trapping you here, in the last day that you're alive, ignorant of what's to come as the sun sets. i dread each minute, a countdown to the end, but live in relief as all the blood washes away, all the would-be scars fade, and the tears dry before they have a chance to fall. but the memory of you dying in my arms remains, and so i'm keeping you in the time loop

(you figured out i'm keeping you in a time loop. you ask me to let you go every day now. i can't i can't i can't i can't i can't i)

the one thing thing funnier than this caption is that the only reason they stopped doing it was that the ferret shit in the tube

That photo makes Felicia’s work seem much more recent than it is. Here’s a picture of the world’s smallest particle physicist herself.

They didn’t stop because she shit in the tube - she had a diaper on because they knew poop would obstruct the particles as well. She eventually stopped running through the tubes because they became too long for her. At that point she was retired and became a pet!

Women in stem

Izuna is the ferret handler and Tobirama a scientist working with the accelerator.

Writer/Character Come to Life

Izuna is a prolific dark romance/tragedy author. His main characters are known for suffering terrible pasts and uncertain futures.

One day, when he returns home to work on his new manuscript, he finds the main character of the story, Tobirama, has manifested in his office.

Does he want Izuna to change his ostracization among his peers?

Does he want his younger brothers' deaths to be erased?

Does he want to ensure he's given a happy ending to his life's story?

No, actually.

See, Izuna writes straight romances and Tobirama, despite being his character, is in fact, gay. He wants Izuna to make his love interest a man.

He is prepared to "convince" Izuna to switch the genre to a gay romance.

Hashirama knocked on Tobirama’s door. When his brother gave him permission to enter, he stepped inside without hesitation.

"Everything okay?" Tobirama asked without looking up from his documents.

"Hey, Tobirama. Yeah, everything’s fine," Hashirama replied with a slightly nervous smile.

"And?"

"Well... I just wanted to talk to you about Izuna."

Tobirama finally looked up from his papers, but he didn’t say anything—just waited for Hashirama to continue.

Hashirama rubbed the back of his ear, hesitating for a moment.

"Look, Madara isn’t too happy about you constantly threatening Izuna."

Tobirama frowned. "What do you mean?"

"Well... Madara overheard one of your conversations by accident, and he really didn’t like hearing you tell Izuna that you were going to—quote—‘Wreck him, break him, and make him beg you to stop.’"

Tobirama smirked at the mention of "by accident," but his expression quickly shifted to something more neutral—or maybe even concerned. Hashirama could never quite tell with him.

When Tobirama didn’t respond, Hashirama kept going.

"I know you and Izuna don’t get along, but try not to throw around threats like that. You know how Madara is… he's ridiculously overprotective, and he might take this way more seriously than you think."

Tobirama looked away, back at his documents. He swallowed hard before muttering, "Yeah, whatever."

"Thanks, little brother," Hashirama said with a small, relieved smile.

mmmmmmmh artist-muse tobiizu. my only problem is that izuna has both the vibe of artist AND muse and tbrm has none lol

but let’s pretend

muse izuna. artist tobirama. iconic and famous in universe yes but mostly : tobirama has all sorts of hum, rights, on izuna. he’s LEGALLY the only one with the rights to paint him, take pictures of him, work with him and it’s not just about his image no it’s izuna’s person

this is an alternative version of the codependent tbiz but anyway yeah their brothers are side eyeing this shit HARD

either tobirama got the rights (which means izuna agreed to give them) before they even realized they were in love (which is concerning) either they got obsessed with each other quite immediately and izuna legally signed his soul and body to the guy about a week in (which is also concerning)

izuna’s laughing at the family (brother) dinner like yeah. yeah he practically owns me, yeah. like it’s nothing and tobirama is comfortably dead silent chewing on his meat (hashirama begs him to tell them it’s not true)

madara is like pffft no way. that’s not even legal. until izuna casually grabs the contract he proudly takes everywhere with him like a goddamn wedding ring

they never get married by the way. they grow old together like stupid cliché insufferable famous muse artist duo that’s gonna mark art history forever only united by this stupid but entirely somehow legally valid piece of paper

tobirama is gonna hunt down every person who tries to have a piece of izuna by the way. 14 years old girl who saw him in the streets and took a picture for her instagram? tobirama is in her dms in the next three hours.

(please picture izuna with heart eyes kicking his legs like a schoolgirl)

I was trying to find a way to make the above post into a tobiizu post for ages. Thankfully, Iznlover is here

Anonymous asked:

Idk if you’re still taking requests for the April whump thing, but if you are, I think it would be super cool if Izuna in the forced to watch position. Idk how that would work, because he’s a freak and I’m not sure that there’s much whumpy shit that could happen to Tobirama that he wouldn’t enjoy watching, but if it was possible I love the idea of him having it burned into his memory for the rest of his life lol

Either that or waterboarding, because I think if Tobirama was being waterboarded he wouldn’t care and it would piss Izuna off, or Izuna because again, he’s a freak and he’d probably think it was hot, and both options are supremely amusing

Hehehe those are all such good prompts. 

Forced to watch prompt: 

Hm, yeah, it’s hard to think of something severe enough izuna would be more upset then aroused by it. I think maybe the trick is….

Izuna stumbles across Tobirama getting chased down by bloodline thieves and decides to enjoy the show before he kills them. Maybe this is actually after Konoha is founded, so he’s less invested in ensuring Tobirama dies, but he’s certainly not invested in Tobirama’s wellbeing. 

So he thinks he’s going to see Tobirama brought to his lowest point, captured and forced down and assaulted. He really hopes Tobirama will cry. (Maybe, if Tobirama calls out for help, he’d even be willing to intervene. Unlikely, but maybe.) He’s entirely unprepared for the thieves to use a combination of drugs and genjutsu to convince Tobirama the encounter is consensual. Much less that it works. (...Their genjutsu is paltry, compared to his own skills. Is it possible he could’ve done the same thing to tobirama himself, years ago?) 

So instead of seeing a sobbing, incoherent, devastated Tobirama, he has to watch a…sobbing, incoherent, extremely pleased Tobirama. He has to wait to kill the thieves until the right moment, because despite being more skilled than any of them alone, he’s still well out-numbered and now he’s not sure if Tobirama might join in on their side. Depending on the genjutsu he’s been fed and the drugs in his system.  

It’s only after everybody else has had a happy ending that he can kill them. While tobirama is still loppy and suggestable, he uses a genjutsu to convince him the entire encounter never happened. Not out of kindness but because he refuses to deal with any reminders.

But he’ll remember. Everyone else might be dead, and tobirama forced to forget it, but Izuna’s going to remember it forever. Cucked by bloodline thieves. It’s going to drive him insane. 

Waterboarding wise, i think it’s most interesting if izuna’s the one getting waterboarded. Because i agree he’s a freak and he thinks it’s hot- Tobirama’s favored chakra element overwhelming him entirely, the cool water against his fevered skin, tobiramas hand around his neck holding him in place. The fact they both know torture doesn’t work at getting accurate information, so this is purely a matter of Tobirama acting emotionally. Tobirama wants to torment izuna. He doesn’t want Izuna dead. Both of those facts combined would make izuna insufferably smug the entire time. Do you want him to react, Tobirama? Do you want him to cry, or beg, or to suffer silently at your hands? Or are you just that desperate for all his attention to be on you?

oh man, i think it works best as a crack au, like-

it starts when they're kids. that first time at the riverbank, when their brothers become enemies. They both have a sort of thought, staring eachother down. Something like, he's pretty. Then they clash blades, albeit briefly, and they think, he's strong.

So they go home. and Izuna, like the good kid he is, asks Tajima about it. If Madara still tried to kill that ugly senju guy, it wouldn't matter how he felt about him right? None of the other stuff mattered, as long as he always tried to kill him when a battle was called?

Tajima assumes this is izuna trying to be lenient to his older brother. It's obvious how devestated madara was over the loss of his friendship, clearly Izuna is just trying to wrap his head around the situation. So he agrees without argument or specification- yes, Izuna, so long as madara uses his full abilities to try and kill hashirama in battle, it's okay that he's got a lot of feelings about the boy.

Cool! Izuna says, and walks away, about to make an astounding number of decisions based off that response.

Tobirama, meanwhile, is having no such talks with butsuma or hashirama. Butsuma is mad that he didn't manage to kill izuna, and hashirama is mad that he tattled, so tobirama is not talking to anyone. he's spending a lot of his time on the outskirts of their territory to specifically avoid any talking, actually.

Which is why izuna is able to find him, and in the midst of their battle, lay out his arguement. Something akin to "Stop trying to kill me right now, save that for the official battles". Izuna's belief that his dad is fine with him dating Tobirama as long as they try to kill eachother during battle is nonsensical to Tobirama, but so are the Uchiha as a whole. and Izuna is pretty, and strong, and not even mad at him!

so they start dating. And they don't hide it.

Especially not Izuna. he's gotten permission, after all. So he runs around telling all the uchiha about his dates, and complimenting tobirama, and nobody thinks anything of it. Izuna apparently has lots of boyfriends out-clan; that's practical, no chance of pregnancy there! Izuna likes to make a lot of sarcastic comments about his lifelong rival's attractiveness and intelligence- insults the man certainly deserves. The idea he could be serious, or that those dates he's talking about are with Tobirama, never crosses anyone's mind.

Tobirama keeps his romance talk to conversations with Hashirama. Mostly it's him saying things like "you act like trying to kill madara is so difficult, as if i don't try and kill my beloved boyfriend every battle. get it together, loser." Hashirama, understandably, does not take it seriously. He assumes it's some bizarre argument tactic, not Tobirama's genuine situation.

Tobirama does succeed in stabbing Izuna to near-death like in canon; Hashirama, luckily, is able to save him; this nearly successful murder does nothing to dampen their relationship.

It takes them a little while to adjust to their new normal, with no murder attempts and only dating happening. eventually they start to talk about marriage. Everyone assumes they mean to other people. arranged marriages, perhaps, for the sake of their clans? Their big brothers hope they know they would never force them into something like that. matrimony can wait until they have a person they love and want to spend the rest of their lives with.

their claims that they already do go ignored. People start trying to date them- the marriage talks meant they're open to that, right? Wrong. They get treated as the unintentional attempt at mistressing/cuckolding they are, with a door slammed in their face.

eventually tobirama and izuna give up on anybody accepting their relationship (They sent out invitations to their wedding, which were treated as a ridiculous prank). they get married quietly and spend the rest of their lives living together, which everyone around them mourns as tragic lifelong bachelorhood. they must've been so marred by war that they never found place for romantic love in their hearts, how sad :( their shared grave goes unquestioned. tobirama was all about good finances for the village, it was probably a matter of practicality.

instead of bad brother hashirama willfully throwing tobirama on the pyre for the sake of peace with a smile on his face, "forced-bad brother in an unwinnable situation" hashirama could be fun. he doesn't volunteer tobirama into getting married off, he gets forced into it. the uchiha demand tobirama marry izuna to make up for nearly killing him, or peace talks are off the table. "you have to kill tobirama or marry him off", to make it even more obvious that hashirama really only has the one choice (And to parallel madaras canonical demand).

so he makes it, and he and tobirama both know he never wanted to do it, and yet it ruins their relationship forever regardless. maybe tobirama wishes hashirama could've given him the choice because he would've picked death. maybe hashirama knows he would've, and that's why he refused to let tobirama choose. (maybe- though he never allows himself to think it- he wishes hashirama would've chosen him over peace, brother duties over clan head duties, but he wouldn't be hashirama if he did and tobirama knows it.)

hashirama is stuck not by a literal lack of options but by intrinsic nature of who he is and who he has to be.
