edenfalling: headshot of a raccoon, looking left (raccoon)
This is part 11 of An Ounce of Prevention, a Naruto/Harry Potter crossover that I started as a giftfic for [livejournal.com profile] askerian.

Technically, it's an insertion of one HP character/plot device into the Naruto world, but that does count as a crossover of sorts. "An Ounce of Prevention" will not affect canon in either series; that is, it takes place during the Naruto timeskip, and significantly before CoS in HP. (Which gives away at least part of the ending, but whatever. *grin*)

An Ounce of Prevention, chapter 11 )

I can't remember how Kakashi usually addresses Sakura (maybe because he doesn't talk to her much?), so I guessed -chan, especially since he's trying to annoy her. It occurs to me that I also don't know how the adult jounin and chuunin usually address each other. Do they use -san, or do they dispense with polite formalities because they're all in a quasi-military organization, or do they use each other's ranks as honorifics, or what? I've been avoiding most honorific tags for simplicity's sake, and will continue to do so, but I'm curious.

(This is the trouble with trying to write fanfic about a series in a different language, with uncertain translations. *sigh*)

I would really appreciate any help on those issues!
