Would the Uchiha go down on their knees and beg if their lover stopper loving them? Who the most and Who the least?

Hello! Thank you for your ask. I also apologize for my severe inactivity as of late.

Ok! Let’s break this down!

We’ve got Madara, Obito, Sasuke, and Itachi for discussion today! I’m not going to discuss Izuna or Shisui here just because I don’t think I’ve gotten enough material of them to be able to answer this properly.

Let’s do this from Most to Least Likely to beg for their lover to stay if their lover said they stopped loving them.

1. Madara

We’re currently discussing Madara from Eternal Love, and he’s the biggest yearner to have ever yearned. He’s so deep in love with his wife that losing her legitimately was the final nail in the coffin to world destruction. If she willingly said she didn’t love him anymore and wanted to leave him, I can see him crumbling. I can see the ache he would feel, - maybe even enough to spiral him into a panic attack of sorts because he just truly loves his wife that much. He would rather die than be without her as it is. To hear that she wanted to leave him? To hear that she would be happier without him in her life? He’s done. He’d be on his knees, - “My love….?” begging, pleading, gasping for a chance. I can see him kneeling in front of you, clasping your legs or your hands, eyes openly showing the pain, wondering what he did, how he could fix this, how he could right the wrongs he’d done to you, give you the love you deserved the way you wanted it. “Without you I am nothing, my wife. I beg of you to let me try to be deserving of your love one more time…” He lets you see all his emotions openly, truly, purely.

2. Obito

Obito is someone who’s seen his fair share of pain in his life. He’s suffered a lot, lost a lot. After Rin, you were the only person he’s loved and let himself feel for. He’d be a bit of an emotional wreck if he heard you wanted to leave him. I can see him having a brief moment of rage, - “Fine, just leave, then! I was fine before you and I shall be fine after you!” But the rage is just a short spiral for Obito. Because once the reality kicks in for him of the words you’d said, he’d crumble instantly. The thought of being alone, - of not having you beside him, - it would definitely break him. He may have been fine before you, but he only started truly living with you. He knows he won’t be anywhere close to fine if you leave. You had become his reason to exist, to live, to do more than just survive day to day. I can see the fear and panic of you leaving reducing him to pleas and begging for you to stay. “No, no, no, no, please! I can’t-” He would sob, hiccuping for breaths while taking in air shallowly, “without you I can’t- please, please, don’t leave…”

3. Itachi

Itachi is mature about his emotions to an almost fault. He would speak, try to reason, but he may not beg and plead as much, - just because of his nature. Itachi is a more calm and respectful person. No matter how much he loves you and adores you, he’s more so the kind to think, “If that is what you wish, I won’t force you. But know that my heart will always be yours, should you ever want it again…” He is the kind to suffer in silence and solitude. Your words would break him, but he would keep it within, not showing much on the outside. You can see the ache in his eyes, the firm frown on his lips, the glassy look in his gaze, - tears that won’t ever fall in front of you. He won’t beg so much as he will accommodate. “I’m sorry I wasn’t able to be what you needed. I hope this brings you the peace you desire.” The ache and pain he feels is something he’ll deal with after you’ve left. His storm rages inside his heart, and he cries in the dark.

4. Sasuke

Let’s discuss Sasuke in the Naruto Shippuden Era here because that’s the time period for Eternal Love as well, and he got a good amount of screen time there. He’s arrogant by nature, - cocky, egotistical, prideful. He won’t beg. “Heh, do as you please. It must not have been worth all that much to you if you’re willing to drop it all and leave so easily.” He deflects any pain with bitterness and anger. Once you’ve left, however, and he’s left with nothing but his own thoughts, the heartbreak comes out through anger. I can see him lashing out. He’s the type to scream, to curse, to yell, to break things, throw things, destroy things. The pain of letting you go without a fight makes him volatile, - reckless fights, no care for his life, snapping at the people around him, isolating himself. Even in all of this, however, his anger is directed at you. He’s angry that you would just toss everything you two built into the fire and leave. He thought you were his forever, and the thought that you fell out of love with him makes him feel disposable, fueling his rage. “And to think we would talk about settling down together.” He would scoff at old memories. “How much did any of it really even matter to you if you could leave it without a second fucking thought?”

How did Madara find out about his wife death? How did he react? Did he cry? Yell? What Was he thinking?

Hello! Thank you for the ask!

Madara would have found out of Y/N’s death through one of the informants he had keeping tabs on her and Konoha. Madara would check in on her, definitely. He could see her grieving and he missed her and her love every day. He knew that while he would always be in her heart, she would continue living for him no matter what because she knew what he would want her to do.

Normally he would keep tabs on her himself, but he hadn’t been able to find her, and sent an informant to gather news from the village headquarters to see if she’d gone on a mission of some sort since it was wartime and orders were unpredictable.

He was definitely furious. He knew his wife would be heartbroken at his “death” which he staged before leaving the village, but he expected that she would move on and continue to live until age took her.

To hear that of all the things that could have taken her life that it was another bloody war, he was extremely angry. He thought they were past the bloodshed and the heartache and that things were fine now, but clearly not. I can see him being furious.

He embodies the type of anger in which he hurts everything except what he loves and holds dear. He’s the kind of person that could be brought down from any fit of rage if it was just his beloved wife holding him close, whispering words in his ears for just him to hear. Everything would be fine if she was there. He could take any beating, any injury, any words, any insults, any humiliation or defeat, as long as she was his and she was by his side.

But she’s not here, is she? No. She was taken from him. As far as he was concerned, the world that took his beloved from him should suffer just as she had in her death and just as he had in his loss.

Madara’s instant reaction to the news of her passing was to definitely “shoot the messenger.” Lord help the poor soul whose job it was to convey the information of his wife’s death to Uchiha Madara. I can see Madara killing the man quickly, before then turning around and resorting to violence on anything nearby, - whether alive or an inanimate object, whether a human or not. Anything in the vicinity would become a victim to his anger and destructive tendencies.

Once the initial anger wears off, however, I can see him collapsing to the ground, kneeling, weeping, sobbing, screaming, crying, calling her name over and over like a prayer that would bring her back and place her right into his warm and safe arms. Once the anger goes away, the true grief kicks in. He starts to truly understand the magnitude of his loss. As far as Madara is concerned, he just lost everything.

Because you are everything to him.

Defeat and humiliation in battles and in wars? Setbacks. Minor setbacks that he can recover from. But you? His wife? His beloved? His soulmate? The end of you was the end of him as a human. You were everything good in him, you were his balance, you were the moon to his raging oceans. Without you, he may as well be a ship with no sail, a planet with no sun.

We saw the two lovebirds meeting again during the war from her point of view, what was his? What did he think when he saw her again for the first time?

Hello! Thank you for your ask.

I think Madara had a serious conflict of emotions. First, instant joy. He was extremely happy to see her again, he loved many years without her by his side and so to be able to hold her again and keep her with him was making him want to cry tears of happiness, - and he did.

The second emotion, although fleeting, was definitely some anger. He knew that for her to be here, she was reanimated. If she was reanimated, that means someone has been tampering with her body and somebody is trying to maintain control over her. He’s angry because someone is trying to control her, put a leash on her. But at the same time, some deep part of him feels gratitude for whoever brought her back, because now she’s here, in front of him, smiling at him, holding him, he can forget the mess around him and pretend he’s still alive, with you, and happy again, - that’s all he needs anyway, just you.

The third and final emotion he feels is guilt. He feels pained for leaving you, and he’ll never forgive himself for leaving you to live your short life alone and die alone. You left this world too soon, and you left it alone, without him by your side. He was haunted all the time with dreams of you, writhing in pain on a battlefield as you bled out alone with nobody by your side. He’s been haunted by dreams of you calling his name as the life leaves your eyes and it’s brought him close to death more than he cares to recall.

None of it mattered, however, as you held him close and told him it would all be okay. For the first time in decades, he finally let go again in your arms.

HII<33

I'm insanely obsessed with the 'Eternal Love's fanfiction you wrote for madara!! I just absolutely ate it up. I have read it over and over again, I had actually lost count.

I would love it if you created another one that links to it and maybe even a series? BECAUSE GIRL YOU ARE SO TALENTED!! Now obviously you don't need to do this! Just a little idea;))

Make sure to take breaks, take care!!

Hello! Thank you for your ask.

This is so, incredibly sweet and it means so much to me that you took the time to leave this message for me. I really love hearing these and I’m so thankful you decided to send this.

I actually have great news for you on this front: someone has already requested another part to this story, and I’m working on it, albeit slowly.

Once again, thank you so much, I appreciate you more than you know!

If she had cheated while they were still married, what would have happened?

Hello! Thank you for your ask.

This is an interesting question, actually. Let’s start with this: Uchihas are extremely loyal by nature. There is no way in hell Madara or Y/N would cheat. They don’t believe in the nonsensical excuses they’ve heard from others who’ve cheated on their partners. They don’t believe in “It meant nothing,” “It was just in the moment,” or “It doesn’t mean more than you or us.” They see cheating as the ultimate betrayal. You know that while everyone else may stab you in the back, betray you, cheat you, lie to you, your partner is one person that stands beside you no matter what. Madara and Y/N are also desperately in love and extremely sound in their decisions. They don’t regret their marriage nor do they regret their relationship through this lifetime.

Let’s stay that, for the question, hypothetically, Y/N had cheated while they were married. Madara would be less angry and more heartbroken. There would be rage, certainly. But in his eyes, Y/N is a goddess. She’s a queen. She’s divine. His first thought is, “What have I done wrong?”

“What did I do that made you go to another man for comfort? How did I fail you?”

“What was I lacking in? Why am I not enough? Am I not worthy of you, my love?”

He’d be broken, but despite the affair, he’d definitely try to make the marriage work, regardless. Because he loved her so much, he wants to move past it and be better for her. In his eyes, she’d never be wrong, it was definitely his fault, - whether or not it actually was.

If, despite his pleas to make it work, you wanted to leave him, he’d let you. He’d be destroyed, he’d probably be contemplating death, but he’d let you go.

[Disclaimer: This is a hypothetical scenario and not part of my plot for the Eternal Love Universe]

Who do you think is the most possessive Uchiha? And the one Who burns with passion the most when in love?

Hello! Thank you for your ask.

Each of the three key members of the Uchiha clan react differently to love, for sure. Let’s try to break it down a little bit!

The youngest member of the Uchiha Clan so far is Sasuke. His emotions are the most turbulent of all the Uchihas till now, I believe. He started off the first seasons of Naruto with decent control over them, portraying himself as the stereotypically stoic Uchiha that everyone expects him to be. However, as he goes through more and more changes to his identity and encounters more and more obstacles, he expresses more freely. He eventually feels love and joy and doesn’t try to hide them later on in the end phases of the Naruto show. Once he loves someone, - romantic, familial, platonic, - he does not hesitate to show it. He almost destroyed Konoha for what they did to Itachi, after all.

Itachi is more controlled with his emotions. He was raised to keep his emotions in check so regardless of what he’s feeling, he’s going to think about it a million times over before he lets anything show in his face. Itachi can play the long game, the patient game, the painful game, he showed that through the entire show. He had one of the longest awaited reveals in the entire series as the held onto his truth until the very climax. For Itachi, it doesn’t matter what people think of him on the outside as long as he knows his truth with his full and beating heart. He’s also strong, he’ll make you see only what he wants to. Whatever you see of Itachi is something that he has carefully constructed, and those are part of the barriers that he’d let down to someone he loved and cherished. There are special people that would get to see him without his walls, him without his defenses, him without his masks, and it’s beautiful.

Madara is erratic and yet not. He is organized chaos at its finest. If he wants everything up in flames, you’ll see chaos. If he wants to show his absolute control, you won’t see a strand of his hair out of place. Madara takes pride in his calm and controlled facade, - his ability to stay headstrong and focused in situations that make you feel the highest of pressure. In a room full of people in tears and in fear of their lives and their futures, you’ll see him standing tall and strong, not a wink of fear in his eyes. However, if he wants you to see his rage, his passion, his commitment, you will. For example, with you. Madara has never hid his emotions for you. He wants people to know how he feels for you and how seriously he takes you and his relationship with you. He wants people to know that when it comes to you, he is not to be trifled with because he can and he will decimate entire continents for you.

It’s hard to say which Uchiha burns the brightest in possessiveness and passion because when their buttons are pushed the right way, they can all be brogue to a breaking point. Overall, Sasuke and Madara are more emotionally volatile than Itachi solely because of the emotions which they choose to reveal on their faces and on their bodies.

I am, also, biased, to an extent. I’m pulled towards Madara to say that he is the most possessive and the one that burns the most with passion because while Sasuke is also passionate, he is volatile and unpredictable. When Madara decides something, he’ll never change his mind on it, and his stance on it shall remain the same forever. Like with you. He’ll never love you any less, only more and more and more and more. He’s loyal and he’s committed and he’d rather take a knife and cease to exist in this life than to not have you by his side to live through with.

Hi! You said that he always talks about her to Obito and the poor boy doesn’t know what to do to make him stop. What does he talk about? Does he ever cry? Is there something of her he still has? How does he remember her?

Hello! Thank you for your ask.

I think the conversations would usually start with something Obito says half-heartedly without fully thinking it through. In the beginning he’d just go “No wonder you’re out here hiding while being all wrinkly. If you were a normal old geezer then maybe you’d be married.” Obito didn’t mean much by it, - he was grumpy and upset and battling his own demons. He didn’t realize the floodgates he would open by saying something like that, though. He’d learned exactly like this that the old geezer in front of him was Uchiha Madara, which means he was, in fact, married to Uchiha Y/N. The Uchiha Y/N. Obito knew about them, of course he did. But the words he had spoke to rashly gave him so much first hand information he didn’t even think possible to know.

Those type of careless phrases would immediately launch Madara into a yap session about his beloved wife. Obito was pretty sure he knew more about this woman he’d never met than even her own parents at this point. It’s not like Obito didn’t know, it’s just that now he knew her from this brand new lens, - this more intimate and private lens. If you’d ever asked him, Madara could probably spend the rest of his years talking about nothing but her until his body was six feet below the earth and he still wouldn’t have think he’d told you enough about her.

Later on, once Obito knew everything, he’d have a habit of accidentally thinking out loud and letting some mention of Y/N slip from his lips. Something like, “Oh my good, you’re so annoying, you old geezer. I know you’re Madara and all, but how did someone like Uchiha Y/N ever put up with you?” This would, unknowingly, launch another session.

Madara would call Obito a ‘brat,’ telling him he knew nothing of their love, that he couldn’t even begin to comprehend how deep their love ran, that it was beyond time and life. But this also caused Obito to crack, because how dare he? How dare this old grandpa insinuate that he didn’t know love? That he didn’t know sacrifice? He’s sitting here and moping with a wrinkly old man, all alone. He had a love, - he had Rin. Obito understood love during the war time because he was going through it, too. “You know what, you old geezer?! It’s actually worse for me, because Rin never loved me, and I’ll never marry her! I can’t even think of having her as mine anymore. At least you could hold Uchiha Y/N in your arms and call her yours!”

Some sort of realization snapped then in Madara, too. They were both mourning their beloveds, just for different reasons. But in their own twisted way, they learned to cope together. It was a lot of the reason that Obito went along with the plan, anyway, - because Madara understood the same type of loss as him. He understood that the woman he loved was too pure for this cruel world, that this cruel world which hurt their beloved didn’t deserve to keep standing.

Madara is a prideful man, always. But for his wife, he’d get on knees in front of the Senju brothers if he needed to. He was never ashamed to shed tears for Y/N in front anyone’s eyes, let alone Obito. If he ever spoke of her for too long, he’d cry. They’d be quiet tears, but Obito would have to lay awake at night as still as possible, pretending he couldn’t hear Madara calling her name in broken sobs in his dreams.

Y/N used to make items sometimes to pass the time, - she wanted a slower hobby as a counter for her usual Ninja missions that she worked with. She would make some jewelry sometimes, - handcrafted bracelets she’d give to Madara. He kept every single one. After her passing he definitely snuck into the village and into their home, - he’d go quietly before they cleared everything. He’d take the oils she rubbed on her skin, the hair oils she used and always nagged him to use, and he’d take some of her Kimonos. He kept all these items from her in a chest, - he definitely threatens Obito with torture should he ever touch or open it.

He’s very careful with what he’s got left of you, - he won’t always wear or use these items because he’s afraid of them breaking or getting damaged, but he’ll use them frequently enough. If he missed your scent, he’s rubbing some of the oils into his skin or combing it into his hair. If he misses the feel of you he’ll lay your Kimono down before lying on top of it, - his own way of trying to pretend he’s back in the compound, safe with you in your shared home, in your shared bed, his head on your chest and listening to your heartbeat and you rub circles into his back. Sometimes he’ll take your bracelets and wear, just to feel like it’s you holding his hand again, grounding him and keeping him steady on his feet when he can’t even think straight.

Obito doesn’t need to see much, really, before he can tell Madara thinks of you as some kind of goddess. ‘And maybe you were,’ he thinks. ‘Because you’d definitely have to be a goddess to bring a man like Madara to this pathetic state of desperation and grief.’ It was truly sad to see a man as strong as Uchiha Madara be so broken and crumpled.

Did Sasuke, Naruto, Minato, Sakura etc see her and think “oh she is gorgeous”

Hello! Thank you for your ask.

Yes, they definitely thought she was gorgeous. It varied in what way they thought it, though.

Sasuke definitely thought she was beautiful, but not in an "I want her to be mine" way because he grew up hearing stories about her and Madara. So for him, Y/N has always been a distant relative or a well known ancestor. He's grown up idolizing her and taught to be like her. She was his standard.

Naruto, Sakura, the rest of their friends would have thought she was beautiful, definitely. Not only does she die young, but the Reincarnation Jutsu tends to bring back a Ninja at their prime, - it wouldn't have mattered for a Ninja like Minato or Y/N because they had already reached their prime aside from dying young, - so her visual age wouldn't have been too far off from them at that point in the story, either. I can see them definitely being attracted to her and having that guilty little fleeting thought of "If only you were mine," - not that they would ever say it out loud around Madara.

For most of the ninja though, this would have been their first time seeing her in real life, including Sasuke and possibly even Minato. Minato was very young when the Second Shinobi War happened, so even though there was a chance he met Y/N and she probably held him as a baby, he wouldn't have remembered it as she dies not long after during that war, and she wouldn't have remembered very well either with all that she had going through her mind.

The ones who definitely remember her and her character are Jiraiya and Tsunade, - Y/N's goddaughter. They idolized her intensively and always looked for her guidance. Jiraiya definitely used many of her teachings and philosophies both for himself and for when he taught Minato, especially. And although it was a different visual prowess, he tried his best to help Nagato, - or Pein, - with his own Rinnegan as best as he could with whatever he could recall Y/N telling him about her Sharingan. Tsunade looked up to her godmother greatly and she still keeps the Healing Technique scrolls that Y/N gifted her safely in her home. She can still remember the exact day she told Y/N she wanted to learn Medical Ninjutsu and how the very next day, Y/N had given her a beautiful chest full of rare scrolls and techniques that she could learn and use along her path. For Tsunade, the way she looked as she was Reanimated was exactly how she looked the day she lost her beloved godmother.

For most of the Ninjas present in the current aside from Hashirama, Tobirama, Sarutobi, Tsunade, or Madara, the only way that they had ever truly seen the Queen of the Uchiha Clan would have been through the many portraits that Madara and Hashirama, - mainly Madara, - had commissioned for her.

This would have been the first time most of them had seen her in the flesh and heard her voice instead of hearing second, third, or fourth hand sources about what it was supposed to sound like. The way she walked, talked, carried herself, spoke to others, spoke to her husband, it was captivating, indeed.
