An Unusual Alternative (G) by tucuxi.
Fandom: Naruto
Pairing: No pairing, but involves (F) Hatake Kakashi, (F) Umino Iruka,Yamato.
Genre: Gen. Genderbent AU, politics.
Length: About 4,000 words.
Author on LJ: tucuxi
Warnings: None.
Author Websites: Author's page on AO3.
Author Summary: Kakashi doesn't really mind kids: she just doesn't want to be out of the field for long enough to have one of her own. Tsunade proposes another option.
Why this must be read: Genderbent AU's are nothing new, there's loads of them in every fandom. Some are excellent, others sadly turn much loved characters into caricatures. I adore this story because the author keeps the characterisations of Kakashi and Iruka right on the mark even though they're both female. And the bonus is that this story is part of an ongoing series, Through the Looking Glass, all of which come highly recommended.
