Brb gonna go cry my eyes out I just realized that Itachi Uchiha's situation around "protecting" Sasuke is damn near the same outcome of how my mom has tried to keep protecting me. Like, to love someone so much, but also to pick all the worst decisions for raising them out of stress and love, and the loved one then takes on the outcome of these bad decisions. I'm turning more and more into a Sasuke kinnie and I don't know how to respond to that lol
