A Fractured View. Naruto. 100 words.
Shino has a secret.
Ninja protect their children, but not like civilians do: not by shielding them from pain. Ninja arm their children with shuriken, bloodline limits, animal companions. But the Aburame clan’s practice of putting babies into the hive, so the insects can colonize their flesh and bones, is something other shinobi find a bit… creepy.
Shino doesn’t understand this. Who wouldn’t want a weapon that works at any distance and can never be taken from you? Who wouldn’t thrill to the fractured view from ten thousand compound eyes?
This is his secret: beneath his collar, Shino is smiling.
