Just spent a few days rereading this, and I love it just as much now as I did the first time around. You’ve done amazing work with this. This is definitely my favorite portrayal of Kakashi. And Sakura and Itachi’s relationship is so… subtle. Quiet. It’s absolutely the perfect juxtaposition to their professional lives and just warms a part of me. Thank you for sharing this.

I've come so far in this fic, but now I feel like I’ve started to dislike it because of how Itachi and Sakura began dating. It feels like there wasn’t any build-up at all. Obviously, you’re a talented writer, and I understand that love can happen in different ways, but this particular development didn’t appeal to me. I’m torn about whether to continue reading after investing in so many chapters.

I just wanted to say, I really hope Itachi gets the comfort and love he deserves in your story. I actually checked to see if you were pairing him with Sakura because, for me, knowing the pairings is personally very important. I went through a few chapters and confirmed that they’re the pair, and I’m so excited about it! This is actually my first time reading a story with their pairing, and I’m loving it so far. Your writing is incredible—I absolutely adore the way you’ve written Sakura’s story. I’ve wanted to read your work for a long time, but I hesitated because of its length. Now that I’m reading it, I don’t regret it for a second. It’s amazing, and I’m just really hopeful that Itachi, one of my favorite characters, gets all the love and comfort he truly deserves.

I just went through everything to reread, mostly because I was trying to remember which website had 5KFTD but of course I've honestly liked everything you've written. Also these publish dates are making me wonder if I need some WD40- to which I was totally surprised to see there'd been a March update to KYH this year and wondering why I didn't remember it. So obviously, that means I need to reread all of it, as one does.

5KFTD was and is one of the best Sakura fics imo, and I'm just another faceless reader but I don't just say that. It's aged really well and I think it's a cornerstone of the Sakura fanfic community if you don't mind me saying (as is KYH) :)

There are several plots and details that have stayed with me that I'll remember and go "I need to find that story" and you have many of them. On that note, I still think, 13 years later, a Well Demon was really unique.

Hope you're doing well!

I'm so happy that this story is being updated :)
I re-read it all and it still brings me pure joy. Love this story, the characterization and the growth arcs. Looking forward to the next chapter already!

In regards to Kushina and Minato having Naruto, it is said in canon that members of the Uzumaki clan have special chakra that can hold back the 9 tails. Given that Kushina couldn't live forever, she would've eventually needed an heir to being Kurama's Jinchuriki. Perhaps they could've gotten Jiraiya to hunt down Karin or someone (assuming that Kusa would give her or her mother away), but the timeline was probably close enough to Uzu's destruction for the remainder of the Uzumakis to still be lost. Its also probably hard to determine who's an Uzumaki vs just a red head considering that Gaara, Rasa, Mei, Tayuya, Sasori, Karui, Choza, etc all have red hair and aren't Uzumakis.

Also, the 4th did take precautions. Obito, Madara, and Zetsu were factors that he couldn't and therefore didn't take into account. The birth was as secret as possible considering that no one in Konoha (aside from Kakashi and a few others) and none of Konoha's enemies (except for those with the ability to phase through objects) had knowledge of him being Minato's son. Really, considering that the Uzumaki vitality is strong enough to survive the chakra drain of an implanted dojutsu (the Rinnegan) at an early age (Nagato) when Kakshi was still affected by the drain of the sharingan as an elite jonin, it was probably a good idea to keep the bloodline alive. No one, not even Hashirama who was supposed to have killed him (and has sage mode so he should've been able to detect his chakra were he alive), accounted for and foresaw Madara's survival and the overarching plan so to hold Minato to omniscent standards is unreasonable.

"Also, we’re in a state of martial law, so what I fucking say goes."

Martial law or not, what the Hokage says goes. Period. Because Konoha is a military dictatorship.
Remember how Sarutobi was able to just create a new law that carries an automatic death sentence for everyone breaking it? It was *his* law, not some parliament's or council's. Since when can the executive leader of the government create new laws in anything but a dictatorship?
Also, do you seriously believe there were ever any courts or judges in Konoha?
The only police force in Konoha was first the Military Police and then, after the massacre, the Anbu - a special and secret military unit that reports only to the Hokage, is loyal only to the Hokage and whose members are better at assassinations than capture. That means Konoha has essentially a Gestapo - only superpowered, less evil and much less inclined to report to anyone but their supreme leader.
That means, even if there seemed to be any kind of council that isn't merely advisory in nature (and it never even seemed like that in canon), they could never have any actual power, because they would know that disagreeing with the Hokage could easily mean that they will mysteriously disappear on their way home and the police would only pretend to investigate.
In other words: Even if the Hokage ever formed a council and allowed them authority over this or that part of Konoha's administration, the moment the Hokage wants something, they would be nothing but the Hokage's yes-men - or else. And they would know it too.

Also, what's up with calling them elders? They were nothing more or less than Sarutobi's teammates, which is why he kept them around. Calling them "elders" implies more than "old acquaintances of the (current or former) Hokage". "Elders" isn't a job that you are given. It rather means something like that you once held a meaningful position, then were replaced by someone else and now you're kept around for your long experience. Sarutobi could have been considered an elder after he made Minato Hokage.
Those two fossils may have meant something to Sarutobi and he may have occasionally listened to their advice. But to Tsunade they wouldn't have been more than two retired shinobi who constantly irritate her by turning up in her office uninvited and offering unasked for advice, possibly even believing (due to Sarutobi's previous indulgence) that they had any actual authority to agree or disagree with anything in any officialy meaningful way.

"what kind of destruction Sasuke would be capable of wrecking" ("Acerophobia (Part III)")
"that would wreck hell" ("Philia (Part II)")
"wrecked so much misery" ("Philia (Part III)")

You may want to rephrase all that.
"Wrecking" something means destroying it. Meaning that afterwards it is gone. No destruction, no hell, no misery.
That makes "wrecking" destruction/hell/misery sound more than a tad stupid, no?
How about you try "wreaking" instead?

"there'd been too much emphasis on the differences between kunoichi and shinobi"

Since you don't seem to know this, let me spell it out for you: "Shinobi" is a synonym for "ninja", nothing more and nothing less. It is not used exclusively for male ninja but is perfectly gender-neutral.
(And, no, what Wiktionary says on this matter is irrelevant. Whoever wrote that entry may believe they are right, but they aren't. Look at it etymologically: There's absolutely nothing about the word "shinobi" or the kanji for that word that even hints at it talking about a male. "Shinobi" simply means "one who sneaks" (nothing specifically male in there), while "ninja" means "one who is invisible" - both according to Wikipedia.)

Who on earth is "Karen"? Do you mean Karin? How the hell did you manage to get that wrong?

"Orochimaru had wanted to capture Konohagakure."

Reeeeeeaaaaally? Is that why he wanted Gaara to transform inside the village while he had the whole thing attacked by a giant two-headed snake from the outside? So those monsters could peacefully meet in the middle, after gently evading any of the village's infrastructure they could have damaged otherwise?
In that case, the Americans probably wanted to capture Hiroshima and Nagasaki intact as well? I guess all three of those operations were planned by the same total moron who didn't realize that destroying something didn't exactly help in preserving it?

"without encountering the Oto-nin team"

And here I thought that, after her utterly moronic assumption about the nature of the Chunin Exams, Sakura was done assuming things.
How does she know that the team that the ninja mentioned is from Otogakure? He never even mentioned that much (and if he did, he could have been lying). Sure, in canon Orochimaru was wearing an Oto headband (which you didn't mention, so Sakura may not have noticed it). But he had already pretended to be someone else from another village. Why would Sakura believe that that headband could mean nothing but that the team in question would be from Otogakure? Why couldn't that headband also have been fake?
