Title: Politically Incorrect
Summary: Sakura insists, “If you’re going to win this thing Sasuke, we just have to rename you. Besides, then the guys on the football team won't even know it's you!” Sasuke scowls. He never asked for a one-woman campaign trail.

Your welcome hun, I'm just saying how I honestly feel about your works :') ♥ Which is getting even more fantastic.

Sasuke as popular but not insanely popular - after all, he's portrayed in canon as extremely polarizing, so to me, in a setting as difficult as high school I imagined many girls would really be fascinated by him, but many boys would not care for him at all - I agree SO much with this! I think this is how the guys feel in the actual anime! Well, except for Naruto

And I do think she'd come across as more forceful and take charge when she's well...more comfortable with herself and not trying to make a good impression in-front of people (not that it's a bad thing to do; because well most people do want to make a good impression and tend to "tone" themselves down)! I don't think the kiss was too sugary at all, it felt appropriate! That's what I like most about it.

I actually think SasuSaku would fare so great in a high school universe as well, which is why I got so excited seeing the Konoha Gakuen ending, I can only wish Kishimoto would at least consider the idea of doing a high school version of Naruto LOL But that'd be like asking for rain in a drought.

I'm glad to know my work has been getting better! :) And of course, how could I forget Naruto...the only boy in the ninjaverse with such a, ahem, rather suspiciousdevotion to Sauce. LOL.

Definitely. Sakura seems like the kind of girl who'd force herself to put on an act of nonchalance or politeness, but beneath it probably really struggle not to give her opinion or take charge, haha. I like that about her. I think that's the hugest difference between Sakura and say, someone like Ino. Ino is way more outgoing with her true personality, whereas Sakura can be more discreet until, as you said, she's more comfortable showing who she is. That's totally one of the reasons I like her so much! :D

You are totally right. I think the fandom would rejoice if Kishi did something as cool as a short high school-AU version of Naruto. The Gakuen ending is one of my favorites too. And with the way the regular story's been going (as in, lack of Sasuke, general morbidness, foreshadowing of angsty ending) we deserve it! Hahaha.

LOL. His suspicious relationship with Sasuke HAHA. Which is why some people consider SasuNaru canon as well, which I have a lot to argue about, but you know everybody has their own OTP so I won't complain because I'd hate for them to poke holes in my beloved OTP :')

That's totally one of the reasons I like her so much! I agree SO much with this actually. It's the one aspect of her character (out of many!) that I find so realistic and that I can somewhat relate to. I love Ino as well, and the differences between Sakura and her which makes their friendship so interesting :)

YEAH we definitely deserve a high school spinoff Naruto. I've always dream that when Naruto finally finishes, Kishi would get too attached to a character and come up with some high school shonen manga about it. Because I'd love to see some of the characters in high school LOL fangirl fantasy.

What's funny is that SasuSaku is my absolute all-time favorite, but I also like Naruto/Sasuke a little. In that order 8D Since Naruto is way more into Sasuke than Sasuke's into him, hahaha. I know it's not canon, but oh well. It grew on me. Stupid Kishi with his stupid implications to a possible one-sided romance X'D But yeah, anyway, I actually do not like SasuNaru at all. It's really popular, always has been, but I don't like how the pairing seems to make them totally OOC, especially Naruto.

*Sigh*, if only Kishi could wake up and see that when he starts these sorts of things, he just has to finish them. Don't tempt is with the Gakuen ending and expect all the fangirls to forget about how spectacular a spin-off would be, yeah? 8'D Haha. If only. I mean, I think that ending was what inspired that popular Deviantart comic Konoha High School, right? Imagine how amazing it would be to have an official spin-off...I know he'd probably pick Sasuke as the main character too. There's a joke in the fandom sometimes that Kishi is waaay too into Sasuke. And maybe that's right. Who knows. LOL.
