It would be, but quietly breaking right off the bat like your write in is boring! It should take more than one update.

You need to be patient.

Draining himself of emotions, we essentially become the Konoha Gaara, except instead of latching onto the rush of killing people, we latch onto basic praise from those we consider authority figures.

Admittedly, I'm also in it for the reaction from Hiruzen.
 
[X] Plan Blatantly Rip Off Yu Yu Hakusho's Kurama's Human Name
"Call me Shuichi, I suppose. I don't mind following you, but loyalty goes both ways. If you can make people treat me just like they would anyone else, or at least not treat me like crap, you've got yourself a deal."

That sounds so cute. Darn it, I'm getting so conflicted now. Do I want to hug little Uzumaki or do I want to watch the delicious suffering?

I still prefer the name Arata by the way. Fits better than Ryou.
 
I was honestly tempted to put in a joke name like Kazama Arashi, based on the old fanon's idea of the Fourth Hokage's name, but I have been watching Yu Yu Hakusho lately, so I went with that instead.

That came to mind too. Along with telling Hiruzen that the blond man would be mad at him, due to copious amounts of creepy things being said by children. It'd be stupid to do though, so I discarded that quickly. Even if Kushina and Minato might be in the seal still.

You know you want the suffering.

You know you want to make it a choice between becoming a person again and embracing the dark side of Kurama really, really far down the line

But if your choice is starving for praise then shouldn't he be obedient? Like a puppy, but cold and dead inside.

Why, just imagine what would happen if he ever gets friends! Or told he did a good job and a head pat! He'd be so happy and excited only to remember he can't have friends because he's an evil monster... hmm. That's a bit too much though. Too much suffering and it stops being compelling, you know? Need moderation. But I suppose that emotional repression being lifted would make for a heart warming scene later on.

That's exactly what I mean. A cold dead puppy you can occasionally praise or give food to, but that will return to the same sullen, broken behavior at the slightest abuse.

In Naruto's situation, you'll see alot of abuse. Maybe occasionally, someone will be nice to him, and he'll be happy for a while, and he'll forget he's an evil mass-murdering fox.

And then someone will remind him. And he'll question everything about the supposed friendship, and ultimately decide it's either a lie or pity. Then he'll distance himself emotionally again, and everything is back at square one. Compelling facets come from other people trying to convince My Little Kyuubi he's worth something, despite everyone else telling him otherwise.
 
From my tally run, I think we got ourselves a Broken Bird MC as Plan Holyfuckingshitdoyoureallyexpectafiveyearoldtoprocessthisshitinanymeaningfulway won. I'll be reading over what I wrote yesterday once more and then write the next installment. Stay tuned!

In other words, the votes are closed. Thanks for your input everyone!

As a bonus, I read over and edited the first post, so that the winning vote makes more sense on top of fixing or changing some phrasing I was not happy with. NOW I'm starting on the next update, promise! :)

    • You knew you had to say something, that you had to at least try to appease this man who could have you so easily killed at the mere inkling that you may prove to be a threat to the village. You knew that you had to say something, do something, but you felt frozen, empty and alone by the heaviness of these words that left you at a loss of anything meaningful to say to change the horrible fact that you were not a person, that you were nothing more than a monster. Your thoughts were growing even more chaotic than usual, and the pain you felt in your chest grew so much that you felt you may pass out as the words kept echoing hollowly in your aching head.

    After a while, you slowly felt that the pain turned to cold spikes of despair as the cruel words coursed through your brain, alighting upon any scrap of memory you had that was dear to you, turning each precious moments into shallow things that showed how truly unwanted you were. Why you were not allowed near the playground, why you had to struggle so much sometime to understand the most basic of courtesies... why the looks you received were always so cold and dark no matter what. No, you were not worthy of love. You were a reminder of dark days, a threat, and as a monster you had no worth of your own.

    Worth... could you really be worthy of anything at all if you did as the Hokage ordered? Would you be able to find some scrap of recognition if you did as you were told, as you trained to be a tool for the village? Maybe so, but what was certain was that you would do anything for this village to finally like you, to give you even a scrap of acknowledgment and love. Your mind stilled and set upon your new goal surprisingly smoothly despite the hollowness of your soul, and it was with a monotone that may have once been disturbing to you that you finally gave your answer.

    "Okay..." There was nothing more to say, you were unworthy of anything more after all.

    You observed the powerful shinobi before you then, dull red eyes fixated upon the wrinkled features of the Sandaime as your eyes slowly dried of tears. That man looked very old then, yet the confusing display of his advanced age was soon covered with the stern gaze of a warlord assessing his newest weapon. You were that weapon, and from now on your days would be filled with conditioning and training in order for you to be useful to Konoha. You accepted this easily in your new state, and thus the next order given to you was easily accepted as a part of your new existence.

    "Good. Your training will start tomorrow at dawn. Until then, you are to make sure to eat and sleep enough to sustain your body in peak condition. Should your designated teacher find your effort lacking in his reports, there will be dire consequences for you. Dismissed." Turning back to his mountain of paperwork, Hiruzen left you to your own device without another glance.

    Standing up from the chair you had occupied in the last hour, you...
    [] Quietly left the Hokage Tower, going back to the orphanage to eat a quick meal and sleep.
    [] Left to find an abandoned shack for your use, as monsters should live away from human beings. (Hard Mode - Choose with caution)

    Let's be honest, it's a five year old that just found out he is the fucking kyubi. The giant ass monster that killed thousands. He ain't in a good headspace for the moment. SO him "running away" ain't a surprise.

    (This has totally nothing with me wanting to get Danzo as our boss (the guy is awesome if you read a bit behind the scenes))
