(Baby Anakin is, meanwhile, sending his alt his most disappointed look.)

"Though you must have a care your anger does not overmaster your reason."

Permalink

"I've noticed."

He sounds exhausted. Also angry, but... He's been angry for a long time.

Permalink

"It can be be a powerful motivator, but it consumes even as it drives. One cannot live by rage alone."

Permalink

"Haven't been left much else."

Permalink

"You may wish to consider building something yourself."

Permalink

"Hard without resources."

Permalink

"That suggests a logical first step."

Permalink

"Are you offering?"

Permalink

She spreads her hands, palms out.

"If you are willing to accept that I will not permit you to murder your siblings."

Permalink

"Do you have a proposed alternative for the thing where I'm dying and the only native fix involves Jakkou dying instead?"

Permalink

"Healing is among my abilities."

Permalink

"Jakkou's got the best healer anyone knows of. That's just slowed it down for her."

Permalink

"As I am not of this world, it may be that I can do better."

He glances, uncertainly, at his little sister.

"...I got my teammate officially released from Konoha's control. She's Kiri's now, even though she had classified information."

"Senju Tobirama isn't cruel. He's ordered you be left mostly alone, and Konoha doesn't have any bounties out for your death anymore. He won't tolerate threats to the village, no matter who they come from - "

"But while the Sandaime's Konoha might never have dreamed of amnesty, grandfather created the village with the people who murdered his brothers, in the name of peace."

"Just... He's a good shinobi, and he's smart enough to see how well Kiri's amnesty policies have worked, and to see that harassing you would be - pointless. He doesn't care nearly as much as most people nowadays do about things like bloodlines falling into enemy hands, either, so - he's not thinking of your genetics as village property."

"I still think you're a traitor, and - I don't really want you in my life. But the Hokage has the right to contest that, and I think he'd be inclined to."

He's quiet in response.

Permalink

"To me, that sounds like a foundation."

Permalink

"I suppose."

Why is he this tired.

Permalink

"Come then, Jakuan. Join me."

Permalink

He comes over - not letting Jakkou out of his line of sight, which he manages to make a lot less awkward than it should be.

Permalink

She nods approvingly.

"And you, Jakkou?"

Permalink

She tilts her head, visibly considering, then -

"No."

Permalink

"Very well. Find me, should you change your mind."

Permalink

"We'll see."
