Story Title: Dark Humor.
Chapter Title: Responsibility.
Rating: R, NC-17 later.
Genre: It goes from Angst to Humor back and forth before settling on Drama.
Pairing: Hatake Kakashi/Umino Iruka, mentions of past Morino Ibiki/Umino Iruka.
Summary: When Kakashi chooses Iruka as his 'prize', Iruka angsts and is confused, annoyed and exasperated in great amounts. Ibiki is not amused. Obito just wants something spicy and for Rin's canary to finally kick the bucket.
Word Count: +/- 3 300.
Author Notes: I find this chapter amusing, though it's a bit more somber than the previous one. I guess I'm finally kicking off the storyline, properly. Kakashi's proving to be a challenge, but I like the way he expresses himself. Comments and nitpicks most welcome.
