Summary
He knows his name, Uzumaki Naruto, but what does it mean? Where does Uzumaki come from? Is that really even his name? It can’t be a standard name they give orphans, because even when he still stayed in the orphanage, he was the only one with that name. Plenty of kids had no last name at all, which makes it more believable that Uzumaki is his real family name.
But what does that mean? Who are the Uzumaki? Is he the only one left? How can he find out? Were his family shinobi? Merchants? Regular civilians?
He is determined to find out.
...
And it kind of spirals from there in ways he never could have imagined. Who knew that posing a simple question would change his life zo dramatically?

Summary
In some cases amongst powerful wixen, like that of the venerable headmaster, poor eyesight usually had some purpose to it.
“It’s magic’s attempt at balancing an ocular boon, Mr Potter” Madam Pomphrey said with a huff.
“But I never got a boon! I haven’t got ANY boons! I haven’t got any bones either! No boons, no bones Potter!” Harry exclaimed with crossed noodle-arms. He was aware he sounded a bit petulant, but he did seem to get the short end of the wand more often than not.
Which is why, when he woke up on his 16th birthday with 20/20 vision, he was more than a little confused.
