With this Ring...(Prologue + Ch. 1) A Battle of Wills

[ryals_shoal]

Title: With This Ring…
Summery: Iruka reluctantly agrees to an arranged marriage in order to save his adopted family from financial ruin, and is horrified when Hatake Kakashi rises to the offer. No one had ever said that being the son of the Hokage would be easy, or that responsibility could bite you in the ass.
Rating: PG-13, rating my go up

i love this! i'm new to this ship and this fandom (i've been living in planet mars) and glad i've come across awesomely written fics.

i love the arranged marriage theme and how obvious it is that iruka despises kakashi. i can't wait to find out how things will go from here.

that matron made me cringe the whole time, btw.

please update soon.

On behalf of a rather friendly community (of which I am, debatably, a rather new member): Welcome!
I've found that the Kakairu community is really friendly, extremely supportive, and welcomes writers, artists, and lurkers like old friends. ^_^

This is so exciting! I had read the Anon post a while back and quite enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to it unraveling into an entire story. <3

Also, and I say this with a great deal of hesitation: I think I like your OC. She's nasty and formal and likable (to me anyway, but I'm sorta evil, and she seems quite conniving: someone I can like and Iruka can hate).

Thank you for reading! This story has been quite a challenge for me to work out, and I am glad to see it liked! :D

As for my OC Yukari...characters of her nature are a guilty pleasure for me to write (as I'm a little twisted by nature, hehe) So to read your comment about Yukari was a great relief to me, as I wanted to portray her to be a somewhat likable nemesis to Iruka's situation.

Well said! I myself had returned to the KakaIru community after nearly ten years of absence, and I have yet to encounter another fandom that is so welcoming and versatile like it!

Thank you, I had found it to be a pleasant challenge to undertake this story. I'm very glad to hear that you enjoy it so far ^_^

Also, welcome to the community!

Very interesting and promising beginning.

It's obvious Yukari's going to get her revenge in planning a wedding designed to completely humiliate Iruka.

Definitely looking forward to reading more of this.

[ryals_shoal]

Thank you! (your icon is adorable, btw)

Love the story!

For Iruka to be married to a hunk as Kakashi, it would truly be a disaster in the making XD

Hope to read more.

[ryals_shoal]

Oh, there will be disaster! *evil laugh*

Thank you for reading!

I remember reading this prompt before, or something similar. I thought I recalled he had met with the Hyuuga after all but Hinata had kept staring longingly at Neji. I'm probably confusing it with another story lol

I'm glad to see you are continuing it and look forward to what happens next!

[ryals_shoal]

Hmm, I have not heard of that Hyuuga-centric prompt, though it sounds interesting (there's a link to the original prompt at the top of the page via KakaIru_Kink)

Thank you for reading! :3

[yuki_nechan]

Jajajajajajajajaja! Never laugh so hard in my life!
This is just hilarious! Love it!
Hope to read next chapter soon!

[ryals_shoal]

The next chapter is up! ^^ Thank you for reading, and I'm glad that you enjoy it so far!
