zokucho liked your post “starter call…for rasa! ”

 “Your Konoha is very....bright.” as in color bright, as in personalty bright. very diverse with how many clans there are actually here, it makes him feel a pang of envy for why his own hidden village couldn’t have the same.

👊 // anti-uchiha sentiments b like: horrific

Kushina had become rather quickly aware of the near-constant attacks on the Uchiha Clan that had been occurring since the day Naruto was born, it would be hard to not come across at least one of these happening every few days. Usually, she wouldn’t step in as that wasn’t part of her job description but seeing the attackers choice of the victim today made her blood boil. Mikoto had been out walking with Sasuke and Itachi, going about her day with the boys while Fugaku was at work. This was very normal for the woman and Kushina would join her like usual if it wasn’t for the porcelain mask that adorned her face. 

Mikoto had been attacked from out of nowhere, someone striking her across the back of the head. Itachi had run to his mother before being torn away from her with his baby brother. Then, the group descended like a flock of vultures on a fresh corpse, beating her without thought for the consequences. Kushina decided to step in, leaping from her perch and landing squarely behind the group. Clearing her throat, she watched in satisfaction as they sprung away from Mikoto and turned to see who dared interrupt them. 

The leader stepped forward and got right up in her face, demanding to know who the hell she thought she was. A slender hand reached up to grab him by the shirt, yanking him down so that his crotch collided with her knee and so his face lined up with her own. As tears of pain formed in his eyes, she hisses evilly into his face, “You will stop this right now. If you do not stop this, I will hunt you down and I will do far worse than just kneeing you between the legs. I have a sharp kunai with your name on it that is perfect for giving you an impromptu sex change, understand me?” With that, she released him and watched as him and the group scattered as fast as they came.

Slowly, indigo eyes drifted to her friend and she walked over to offer her hand to her. Behind the mask, a soft smile spread across her lips, “They won’t try that again, ma’am. Are you alright? Do you require medical assistance?” She could feel Itachi slowly stepping closer as he realised that this woman wouldn’t hurt them, “And the children, are they both alright? Could you check for me?”

              he has no right coming to the Uchiha compound in the dead of the night, pale from a particularly unforgiving nightmare  ( memory? )  in which his teammates die over and over and over while Kakashi’s heart breaks in tandem. yet he finds himself at the entrance to Obito’s home, the sharingan throbbing incessantly in his skull refusing to grant him sleep or peace. 

              he’s slow to raise his gaze, reluctant to look her in the eye with one stolen from her kin. when he eventually meets her stare, it’s with haunted dark depths  —   a desolate house looking out into the world. no part of his expression shifts despite the pressure of her gaze; there are too many demons in his basement keeping him occupied. nothing could possibly hurt him more than all that he has brought upon himself. 

            “ you should. i .  .  .  i hate myself more than anyone ever could, but it’s not enough, Uchiha-sama. it’s not enough. ”        the uncharacteristic tremor to his voice isn’t lost to the quiet night. bare fingertips press into the eye that isn’t his, trembling slightly, as though on the verge of gouging it right out of its socket.        “ what  .  .  .  what should i do? ”

your five comic is so lovely!! T_T they give me endless muse for mikoto and make me so excited about naruto in general. i can't thank you enough for drawing them, especially that last installation!! o)-<

Thank you for enjoying my comics!! I’ve really grown fond of Mikoto and Kushina, and the tragedy I’ve written them into, so I’m glad others feel inspired by it as well <3 <3

BEST LESBIANS FTW SOB

but, yeah, Fugaku and Mikoto’s relationship is something interesting. Fugaku cares deeply for Mikoto but he is very aware she is not and will never be interested in him, and yeah, it hurts him a lot. (His mom never loved him, his father-figure Sakumo abandoned him, and his wife cannot bear to touch him. He can’t help but be very self-loathing, and cold-shouldered, and bitter, and Always Tired). And while Mikoto understands he comes from a very fucked up childhood, and cares for him in an almost sibling-like fashion, she’s just. Not into him. They eventually do talk about it, and come to terms with it, and Mikoto and Fugaku agree to have two children for the clan some years down the line, and Mikoto really does end up enjoying being a mother, but their relationship is always very solemn and respectful and not touchy at all.

This naturally translates to how they handle their kids, because while they both love Sasuke and Itachi very, very much, neither of them are products of love, but duty. (Well, I actually HC Sasuke is less duty and more Mikoto’s will, because Kushina confessed to Mikoto she thought she was pregnant and Mikoto was like !!! I WILL GET PREGNANT TOO AND OUR KIDS CAN HANG OUT!!! and it turns out it was a false alarm on Kushina’s part (it was a first term abortion cause kyuubi chakra is abrasive af rip), but a few months later she did manage to stay pregnant – aaand that’s why sasuke’s older than nart).

In my headcanon, Fugaku and Mikoto were arranged to be married when they were both quite young, so they distantly knew they’d be together for a long time. Mikoto’s family was very honoured so she grew up knowing it was a great privilege and it would bring much honour to her family, and she was raised to be the perfect Uchiha housewife.

Naturally, she hated it. She actually started hanging out with Kushina at first because it drove the Uchiha clan up the wall, and when she actually discovered she really, really liked this spunky girl with sharp teeth and gravity-defying hair and coarse, abrasive, explosive chakra, she quickly and cunningly convinced the Uchiha elders to let her stay friends with Kushina because wouldn’t it be useful to have the trust and protection of the container of the Nine Tailed Fox? And that’s why no one stopped them from hanging out, and later going out, though it was definitely around this time that Fugaku’s mom was like wait. what. HELL NO. and rushed the marriage. No bringing shame to the Uchiha’s name.

Fugaku’s a terrible emotionally constipated father, but he is a product of his circumstances. Mikoto is likewise kind of a bad mom, especially to Itachi, because he was never something she wanted, and being pregnant and giving birth is traumatizing, and she kind of aborted him in her mind way before he was born, and then he grew up wayyyy too fast, and he was his own little person already embroiled in that horrible thing called Duty To Your Clan and Village, and she lost him before she got a chance to know him.

Mikoto never stopped loving Kushina. She fed her family tomatoes in her memory, to the point that it’s Sasuke’s favourite food. She tried to time her second kid to coincide with Kushina’s. And when Kushina died, she vowed to fuck up the Leaf Village that had made her miserable and got her killed, and helped kickstart the Uchiha uprising…

Fugaku was both a loyal husband to her, always, and loyal to his clan, to the point of self-annihilation. When Itachi comes to kill him, he closes his eyes and accepts his fate.

Being one of the first times Tobirama had truly been watching the Uchiha children, red depths observed, following their light chakra that ran warm like glowing coals, giving off heat, in smaller pools than what he was used to from Izuna. One of the few caught the Senju’s eye, resulting the elder to focus on the youth nearby before he went over to catch her attention, only to guide her aim a little higher, even though an elder Uchiha nearby narrowed his eyes at him, something Tobirama completely ignored, after all, the man could just have done his job and been of guidance to the children. “  You need to aim a little higher, at that height, you would have missed the center. When you throw, it’s best to hold your breath until you have released or keep it steady and calm. “

🤗 // context? idk her

Mikoto Uchiha wasn’t supposed to be alive anymore than she was. She was a past come to haunt him, Izuna’s sweetly wrathful face made flesh once more while Indra’s mimetic legacy would pass on to her young son. Two souls that had escaped the reckoning, alive to some odd and wild degree. Revived as Edo Tensei much earlier than he anticipated, for means even he wouldn’t yet fully understand, it was here in the winds of fate that he came to the horror-struck remains of their clan while wrath shook him, threatened to see him burn what remained of the bloodstains, of the bodies wrested away to be used as experimentation fodder. Or whatever the hell else. 

All that was left was the madonna and child. 

She was quiet. Gutted and tongue sliced from her mouth at the horrors witnessed, but her features were blanched and set like stone, knowing that to cry out and mourn would jeopardize she and her son. And so this wraith woman was, small son trembling against her breast from the visions his traitor brother defiled his mind with. He would’ve torn the village apart himself were it not for he insistence otherwise, something else needing to be done.

A boy’s life to protect. 

They stopped barely a mile from the Land of Fire’s border, Madara keeping vigil over the mother and child. She awoke at first, looking around, not remembering where she was, tears unconsciously slipping down pale cheeks before she saw him, standing vigil like a vulture and matching her gaze with one set as jewels in cold stone. But, a woman like a girl like Izuna’s ghost was better than none as she tepidly wound her arms around his waist, the ancestor accepting it and feeling an empty feeling of relief that he might be able to protect even a few souls of his blood and brood.

Carefully, an arm winds around her protectively, gathering the smaller figure to his chest.

Revenge and his budding wrath might wait just a little longer.

[[ some examples of canon anti-uchiha sentiment ]]

[[ Actually lemme just make another post of all the canon examples of government officials/villagers being anti-Uchiha. I kind of explained some of it to @zokucho from @kakumeinoshippai but I should really back it up with proof.

This will  be a long image heavy post with just a few of the instances from the first novel only. ]]

When the Kyuubi attacks, Fugaku intends to get involved with the fight. This is his village too, and he intends to protect it, despite how dangerous it is.

They are instructed by Danzo (top brass) to NOT go and fight it.

Danzo publicly accused the Uchiha of summoning the fox. It was HIS idea to move them to the edge of the village. Hiruzen thought it was weird but no one stopped him. No one fought him on his accusation.

Itachi doesn’t think it’s a problem, because he’s a child, who doesn’t know better. The adults call it for what it is: discrimination; Persecution; False Accusations. Itachi also thinks the Uchiha clan is lucky because their district was built first, and many other people had to wait to have their homes rebuilt. Again, this is a child’s thinking, he doesn’t understand.

When Tenma first meets Itachi, he bullies him. Using his surname to boot.

Tenma and his squad of bullies directly accuses of Itachi being responsible for the attack, and the loss of loved ones. 

I’m gonna stop explaining and just keep posting images lol.

Again, there are MANY MORE like this. From Itachi being accused of killing a guy’s sister when he’s let into the surveillance room, to the Uchiha facing unnecessary budget cuts purely to piss them off, to the whole district being filled with CAMERAS... there’s so much. ]]
