''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5661129/1/Cutting_Loose Cutting Loose]]'' is a ForWantOfANail ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' Fanfic written by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1623010/Chengar_Qordath Chengar Qordath]], although it seems to be on hiatus as it hasn't been updated since October 2011. The basic premise revolves around Naruto becoming friends with Tenten while still at the Academy, and ultimately graduating a year earlier than he did in canon and joining Team Gai in Neji's place.

* TheGenericGuy: Masaru's the most ordinary character in the story so far, hands down. [[TropesAreNotBad It's handled rather well, though]].

* TooDumbToLive: Maeko frequently shoots her mouth or does stupid things which are liable to get her killed, such as refusing to increase her skills in areas she's actually ''good at'', out of some sense of self-entitlement and {{Pride}}. It takes [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech Masaru viciously chewing her out]] [[spoiler: after Neji almost dies saving her]] for her to finally recognise this, and even now she's going to need time to grow out of it.

Added DiffLines:

* SelectiveObliviousness: Naruto blatantly ignores any rumors or reports about the Bloody Mist, claiming it's due to prejudice against jinchuuriki. Unfortunately for him, he learns that it's all true after finding a Kiri team on an official mission to wipe out a village.

* ScareEmStraight: When Tenten and Lee follow Naruto on a mission they're not authorized for, the Jounin explain that legally they're now rogue ninja and as they know, the punishment for such is summary execution.
