Grasping at Lost words

For as long as Naruto remembered he'd loved Sasuke. Losing him was like losing all the stars in the sky. So he spent years and years creating his own lights and sending them into the sky like a million lanterns in hopes of bringing Sasuke back to him.-Feeling nostalgic from the recent Boruto episodes, here's my retelling of how the series 'Naruto' could have gone if Sasuke were female and how this would have affected the story. It's largely romantic, Nostalgic and will explore the journey of their relationship and how it changed over time, including them becoming friends, falling to lovers, breaking up and more. I'm all for a revival of the Naruto Fandom!

First of all, I want to disclaim that I don't own Naruto. The reason I chose to make Sasuke a female isn't because I'm homophobic but realistic. Unfortunately, in our world the odds of two male shounen protagonists being in a gay relationship is incredibly unlikely due to target audiences etc. Considering Kishimoto-sensei's writing style, I imagine a female Sasuke would have ended up Naruto's main love interest. It might sound silly, but I also believe that Naruto could have been the literal greatest love story of all time if Naruto and Sasuke had been in a relationship and the series had build up to that, ending in their marriage. This is my fanon of the series if it was made for that intention. It's also inspired by many of the beautiful Naruto openings and endings, as you might be able to tell from the descriptions~
