What hobbies do Kakashi & Iruka have, that only the other knows about?
I think that Iruka likes to do jigsaw puzzles. It’s not a hobby he tries to hide, but since he does them at home, usually in his study, out of sight of guests, no one ever really sees him do them. It’s a good way for him to process things that are going on in his mind, whilst also keeping his fingers moving; and he always feels very accomplished when he finally completes his puzzles.
Kakashi doesn’t mind doing them, either, although he’s not as invested in them as Iruka; so sometimes, when he’s in the mood to do one, they pick a 500 piece puzzle to do together, usually in the living room while they’re watching TV. When they’re done, Iruka also likes to get them framed, though he doesn’t generally have them up on display, because the walls are filled with photos of them, their family, and friends, instead.
As for Kakashi’s hobby, I don’t think it’s any secret that he likes photography. The people in his life are important to him, and he’s a very sentimental person, so he likes to make as many memories with them as he can. But Kakashi being Kakashi, doesn’t know how to express this as himself, hence his need to disguise himself as Sukea to get close to everyone and be comfortable taking photos and filming them. Though I think he also claims to be a journalist as Sukea so he doesn’t look suspicious when he does it XD
Kakashi’s hobby may be the reason there are so many photos on the wall, and full photo albums, too XD Which Iruka loves, because he’s just as sentimental, and believes you can never have too many photos of the people you love!
