If this isn't appropriate, be sure to ignore this post. I just felt it'd been a while since a general discussion about Kakashi, Iruka, and the Naruto manga as a whole had been discussed here (if ever...elements of support could also work for each other. Their complementary personalities could prove beneficial to one another, creating a genuine companionship. I'm rambling now, but you get the idea.

'Ello, everyone! I was wondering: in your personal opinion, what detail makes a good KakaIru story? Skipping over vague, generalized standards - good spelling, grammar, plot, etc - would anyone care to... Seriously, I curious to hear the various answers I'm sure you'll all have.
