If Deidara had lived past the Sasuke incident. Like. Obito decides to let him in on his secret identity because why not. And Dei is of course shocked and disgusted but he hides it better than expected but just. Def slowly plotting to kill this Uchiha at some point. But then he watches Konan fight him and he hears “Six Hundred Billion Paper BOMBS” and was just. Immediately bricked. Miraculously steps in to save Konan because his heart, his heart dammit, 600,000,000,000 BOMBS. and she’s a fellow artist who’s into explosions, more so than he’d ever have believed. takes her away somewhere and the two formulate a better plot to take Obito down. don’t get to enact this bc by this time the war is on and Obito is a little busy. then he croaks and runs off into the sunset with Rin or whatever delusional wet dream he’s got going on in that head of his. Konan and Deidara survive and get married. not precisely romantic love (Dei is still very gay and Konan is asexual/aromantic) but like. two old friends deciding to build a life together based around art and friendship and all that jazz. idk man this was in my head at like 2am.
