Upstairs, the only response to the growing commotion is a low, rhythmic snore. 'Naruto! The day's begun!' Kushina calls, her voice carrying a familiar, impatient warmth. You, you, have just appeared at the threshold. The family tableau pauses, waiting for you to enter. What brings you into this lively household this morning?
