itachi 'what are lines, don't know her' uchiha, at ur service.

if he ever had them, they have been blurred and bloodied, broken down to base components and scattered throughout the morass of an existence scraped out on the edge of a knife. their excavation is an archaeological one, the slow and laboured uncovering of what it might be like to live by his own morals rather than those imposed upon him by necessity and by war.

he wished for peace, once. for the freedom to be honest and kind. he does not consider these things to have been stolen — their excision was a voluntary one, and he wielded the blade himself, cauterized what remained and carried on.

he does not expect sasuke will ever forgive him. but if he had the temerity to want or expect it of him, he would never have had the strength to lift his sword that night.


Do you regret having done so?

coming here, he does not say.
