I haven't written anything in months! This prompt inspired all sorts of little thoughts and I couldn't resist.

Title: Family Ties
Rating: K
Pairing/Characters: Perona, surprise
Word Count(if applicable): 245
Prompt: “head!canon"


Perona had only one regret in her life (and that was only when she let herself think back and dwell on it. Things were usually much more interesting in the now!)

It wasn’t leaving her home village that she regretted. That had when she was very young. She could barely remember the attack that destroyed it. It had killed her parents and she didn’t want to stay there and follow her parents in fighting for some stupid village and getting killed for it. (There was yummy food to eat and sweet drinks and pretty clothes and only stupid people got caught where there wasn’t someone strong enough to protect you from stupid, giant monsters and other stupidly dangerous things!)

But, sometimes, when her head wasn’t filled with beautiful and macabre things, she did regret leaving her little brother there. (But he had been too little to take and she couldn’t have taken care of him anyway! He’d barely been a year old and she wasn’t much bigger!) So, she’d left him at the orphanage and left before anyone thought to look for her.

She sometimes let herself wonder how he had turned out... had he grown up strong and cute? Did he try to become a ninja like their parents? Did he... did he remember her? (Lee had been so cute liked to pull her hair, back then.)

Hah, I'm not a big Naruto fan, so I'd never noticed that Lee and Perona's eyes are the same shape. Thanks for your interesting piece of ficcage. ^^

I never noticed that about their eyes, either! Love this! :D
