oh my god 100%. Kakashi didn’t even realize he could use the Sharringan for like a solid 3 months because he already had an abnormally good memory and eye for detail. 

Kakashi never really got the complicated social intricicies of “”Friendship””” and “””Manners”””, so he just spirels further and further into his hyperfixation on Rules, because at least he can read and comprehend those. They don’t really change. It’s why Obito’s words stick with him so firmly; it’s a new rule!! And the first time he ever realized that he can make rules, which was like. Absolutely mind blowing.

Gai is just so good because he’s autistic but in like. the opposite direction. Like they both stock up on samefoods and keep rigidly to their schedules (kakashi has a very percise schedule it’s just like. on his own time) and have NO IDEA how to have friends because they’re both the ‘weird’ kid so instead they’re ‘rivals’ because they grew up in a millitaristic-hellscape where rivalry is easier to foster/comprehend then friendship. So they!! Both communicate different and for literal decades could only trust each other to understand them!! Like! 

Gai can use flowery language that he likes and do somersaults around Kakashi to stimulate himself while Kakashi has a perfectly blank-bland-”bored” face while he infodumps about dogs and Gai is nodding and I love them. And they love each other. 

Listen. Listen. I can talk ND naruto for literal eons. Try me.
