You don't understand, I need to read your Team Taka AU!!
I do have some questions!
1. The missions that Team Taka accepts, are they only shinobi related? or are they also more mundane like farming, building?
2. If they're shinobi related, do they have hard nos? and what are they willing to accept?
3. You said that Danzo dies with the help of all Taka, but do they take more actions? making it public? destroying the world?
First of all. thank you!!! I am so glad I have interested at least one(1) person in this AU idea. And I would love to read it too, but unfortunately I would have to like... actually write it. Bummer.
To answer your questions:
1) They're a mix of both! What I had in mind is that they're often moving a lot, village-to-village, town-to-town, maybe even the city, in search of information on the things they're searching for (The 7 Swords of the Mist, traces of Juugo's clan, traces of the Uzumaki, etc.) and so here and then they'll either find someone who needs their immediate help or ask around if they can help with anything if they need the money. Sometimes a mission will be "my son got kidnapped after a village attack please helpme find him" or helping with groceries. Like your usual shinobi missions, really.
They never take more money than is strictly necessary (which is at Sasuke's insistence) when they move as a group. Sometimes they'll split up around a town to take a few individual odd jobs, and Karin and Suigetsu will sometimes take a little more than they think the mission is worth, but only if the client looks well off enough. Sometimes they will do missions for free if they look particularly dire and they feel too bad to charge the client, which happens a lot more than they'd expect.
2) They discuss what their limits would be, when they're acting as a group, among each other. Since Sasuke's no longer leading them towards a goal that is his alone, "just do what Sasuke says" isn't how they function anymore (Suigetsu and Karin will constantly remind Juugo of this, who just kind of already decided how that would be how he'd work for himself. Some encouragement from Sasuke himself and more time getting used to working as a team eventually leads him to speak up about what he thinks more). What they decided after long discussion is:
They will not take assassinations as long as they can all agree that the person being assassinated deserves it. Which kind of people fit into that is another subject for discussion but they can all agree that they won't entertain petty rivalries or requests from people in high positions (rich, noble, etc.) that are clearly abuses of power.
They will not bother helping people who can clearly help themselves, if it's for mundane every day tasks. They will check for it if that happens to be the case.
They will not take on anything that keeps them in one place for too long, given that they're still on the run and two of them have their faces on official village watchlists.
3) I hadn't thought as far as "what do they do with what they know now and after killing Danzo", actually! That part is still something I'm working on. But they're definitely not gonna go public as far as like being the faces of the Revolution, or something. They don't have the power or the resources for that, and prefer (and are better-suited) to do some individual direct action.
I did mention that Obito/Madara as Akatsuki ringleaders are completely absent from this AU, making it so that the Akatsuki and what they do are 100% the work of Konan and Nagato, so... at some point, Hebi are radicalized enough to see the Akatsuki less as dangerous criminals and more as people who had a point. They eventually face with Kisame, who has a sword Suigetsu wants, who is perfectly happy to tell them what the Akatsuki wants and what their true motives are. So they could collaborate with what's left of them from time to time (that being just Kisame, Konan, and Zetsu, lol). I do not believe in Konan trusting Naruto so readily like Nagato did so she won't do that in this AU. She will try to rebuild the Akatsuki, or at least a movement that can stand against the Hidden Villages and challenge them, bc it's what she deserves. And Hebi can help with that, what with the connections with other people they've built, and such.
