A better end to 'the life of Uchiha Itachi'?

... I suppose it was a long time coming.

Comments

how am I the first Sasuke to comment to this I mean really SORRY FOR THIS DISGRACE

[revengingly]

[Now it's his turn to take a painfully long time to speak his mind, right?]

[Well he's going to do it anyway, so deal.]

[... You'll be here for a while anyway, right?]

[There's no rush, not here. No glowing beams of light, no flaking skin, no empty eyes... There's time.]

[Time to think, and over think.]

[No. Even in this place, there are limitations.]

[And, really, there's nothing left to think about now. Not after that.]

I HAVE NO IDEA I WANTED AT LEAST 100 SASUKES cries my broken dreams

[There is time, and he has all of it in the world for Sasuke. Always.

Itachi waits until he speaks, listening, aware Sasuke isn't done. He won't interrupt, but he's close and he won't blame his younger brother if he can't do it. He never said he thought his words would reach him.
