Torrid by KageKitsune XXX
Sasuke believes that a little thing like marriage should never get in the way of a perfect relationship. Unfortunately for him, not everyone agrees. NaruSasu AU
One month or one week ago I wouldnt have thought that I'm gonna read this fic. Not because its NaruSasu or NC-17 (those are normally the reason why I
read a fic XD ) but because this has 24 chapters. In other words this is frickin long fic. Like really. Actually I havent even read the whole fic yet but going there, only like 9 chapters left. Ha.
Anyways. The basic idea of
Torrid is that Sasuke has married Sakura because his dad told him so and before that Sasuke and Naruto were fuckbuddies. Of course they were also best friends all other that crap. But this fic begings where Sasuke and Sakura have just said the magical "I do" and wents to honeymoon. We can't forget the little happening in the forest somewhere in the begin too, where Sasuke had Naruto pressed againts the tree.
Still the reason why I like this fic so much is the description of every character's feelings. They aren't just fuckin and going around like headless chickens. They have feelings and every action affects to their feelings. And how the writer wrote about those. I think I have already cried a couple times over this fic just because how real it all feels and how everything is logical if you really think about people and how they would react in such a situation.
The description of feelings isnt the only thing why I like this so much. There is also this basic plot and how it goes forward. It doesnt jump from point to another, it explains and takes its own time to progress things. Of course
Torred has its own blank spots that keeps the interenst in and some kind of uneasy feeling. But those blank spots are good and they fit in story and normally they are also explained laiter and if not... well then they arent so imporantant. Ha.
Other than how this whole thing is written the characters are too awesome. I don't normally like Sakura at all but in this I think I can say I like her a little bit now. In
Torrid she is so selfish and tries to control everyone all the time and is a little bit like a drama queen. Then there comes this little scenes where she realizes that she can't be the number one person to everyone.
Still the real drama queen in this fic is Sasuke, at least I think so. He just can't understand his own feelings and is all the time thinkin how everything is so bad and how he is doing all the work and bleh. And then Naruto becomes a little bit like a drama queen at one point but that is minor thing.
Torrid just has so much drama in each character but it still keeps it all together and that is one thing i really appreciate.
Okey. But the whole fic is just way too awesome to just skip and not read. Even if you like only the fics where Sasuke tops you have to read this. It's just fits so perfectly that Naruto is top and not Sasuke. And no, I'm not gonna try to make you a NaruSasu fan, just pointing out that you have to try it other way around too.
The points would be somewhere 9/10.... only because I'm not so big fan of multichapter fics and anyways nothing can be perfect : DDDD
