Fallen Leaves (NC17 overall) by Numerous Authors.
My last rec for this month. *sobs* It's been loads of fun choosing things that I love and that other people might enjoy. I hope I managed to find something that suited you. Thanks for the comments and I'm going out with a decent bang, I think. If you like long, this is the place for you. I swear I lost well over ten days of my life reading my way through this, and I don't regret a minute of it.
Fandom: Naruto
Pairing: Many and several, including but not exclusively: Shiranui Genma/Namiashi Raidou, Inuzuka Tsume/Namiashi Raidou, Hatake Kakashi/OMC,
Genre: M/M, F/F, M/F. Action, adventure, politics, drama, hurt/comfort - you name it, it's there.
Length: Seriously massive ongoing RP.

Author Websites: Community profile.
Authors' Summary: Five years after the demon nine-tailed fox wrecked havoc on Konohagakure and was sealed inside the infant son of the Fourth Hokage, two years before the Uchiha Massacre, the village is rebuilding and growing again. The Sandaime Hokage is alive and well; Konohagakure is recovering from a long brutal war, the Kyuubi onslaught of five years ago, and the loss of the Yondaime; and the elite ninja of the future are the rising stars of today. This is Fallen Leaves, a story of the young people of Konoha past and the experiences that will shape their lives as part of the dark, unsavory Special Forces known as ANBU.
Why this must be read: Anyone who has an interest in the older generation of the Narutoverse has probably asked themselves at some point, I wonder what all those guys were doing when they were younger. Here is your answer. This sprawling soup of plot and relationships, tension, violence and politics spans the years after the Kyuubi attack and before the show starts. It's comprised of numerous separate stories many of which, though all interlinked, can be read as stand-alones. The links below take you to the most useful places to start.
