Often, Naruto in love fanfictions is more in tune with his emotions regarding Gaara. He might be more perceptive of Gaara's needs and wants. Gaara, on the other hand, could be written as having a softer side that was not as evident in the anime. For example, he may show more playfulness or shyness around Naruto, which is a departure from his cold and distant anime self.
Naruto may be portrayed as a more patient and understanding figure in love fanfictions. In the original anime, he is already patient with Gaara, but in fanfictions, this trait can be amplified in the context of a romantic relationship. Gaara's personality can be changed to be more receptive to Naruto's love, while in the anime, it took him a long time to open up even to friendship with Naruto.
In some fanfictions, Naruto might be more assertive in his feelings towards Gaara compared to the original anime where their relationship is more about friendship. Gaara may be shown as more vulnerable when it comes to love, as in the anime he is often portrayed as stoic and strong.
In the fanfiction, Evil Naruto might be more cynical and power - hungry. He could have lost his belief in the values of the Hidden Leaf. Gaara, on the other hand, might be more cold - hearted and less likely to show any mercy, as opposed to his more complex and evolving personality in the original series.
Female Gaara could have a more nurturing side. Since she is a female, she might be more in tune with the needs of her people in a different way than male Gaara. Naruto could be developed to be more patient. In the story, when dealing with Female Gaara's insecurities, he has to be patient and understanding, which is different from his sometimes impulsive nature in the original.
In fanfiction, Naruto might be portrayed as more emotionally vulnerable around Sasuke. In the original series, he was always very boisterous and positive, but in fanfiction about their brotherly relationship, he could show his insecurities to Sasuke more openly. For example, he might talk about his fear of not being good enough as Hokage. Sasuke, on the other hand, could be shown as more patient. In the original, he was often brooding and impatient, but here he listens attentively to Naruto's concerns.
In some fanfictions, Naruto's childhood self can be even more naive and innocent compared to the original. He might be more openly vulnerable about his feelings of loneliness. For example, he could cry more easily when Sakura accidentally says something that hurts his feelings. Sakura, on the other hand, may be portrayed as more motherly towards Naruto in her childhood in fanfictions. In the original, she was mainly focused on Sasuke, but in fanfiction, she might be the one to comfort Naruto more often.
In fanfiction, Naruto might be more openly affectionate compared to the original series. He could be quicker to show his feelings for Menma. Menma, on the other hand, might be more reserved in some fanfictions, adding an interesting dynamic as Naruto tries to break through his shell.
In fanfiction, Dark Fem Sasuke might be even more brooding and vengeful than in the original. Her femininity could add a different layer of complexity, like she might use her charm in a manipulative way to get what she wants. Naruto, on the other hand, could be more determined to reach out to her, showing his growth in understanding those with a darker side. He may be less naive and more strategic in how he approaches her.
In fanfiction, Naruto might be portrayed as more vulnerable in his relationship with Itachi. In the original series, he is very boisterous and confident, but in yaoi fanfiction, his feelings for Itachi could make him more hesitant and self - conscious. For example, when expressing his love, he might stutter or blush more often.
Well, in chibi fanfiction, Naruto is often depicted as an even more energetic ball of sunshine. His love for ramen might be shown in a cuter, more obsessive way. Sasuke, though still having his serious demeanor, may be more approachable. His determination to become stronger could be intertwined with his friendship with Naruto in a more light - hearted manner. For instance, instead of the deep - seated angst in the original, his drive to be better might be because he wants to keep up with Naruto's growth in a friendly way.
Well, in fanfiction, Draco's arrogance from the books can be toned down a bit. He could be shown as secretly having a good heart all along. His snobbishness might be a front that he drops more quickly. Hermione's perfectionist streak can be exaggerated in some fanfictions. She might be even more obsessed with her studies and magic, but also more likely to let her guard down around Draco. And in fanfiction, their mutual understanding of each other's situations can be explored more deeply. For instance, Draco understanding Hermione's plight as a Muggle - born in a prejudiced wizarding world, and Hermione understanding Draco's family pressures.
Well, Naruto could be depicted as being similar to Gaara in their inner strength. Gaara was always strong on the outside but had a fragile heart. Naruto, in this fanfiction, may share that same duality. Maybe he shows Gaara that having a strong will doesn't mean suppressing emotions. He could be the one to show Gaara that it's okay to let others in, since Naruto is always about making friends and bringing out the best in people.
