Do you think itachi had bad breath? They were out all the time and I am positive he didn’t carry a toothbrush.

[[ Definitely. If he can’t bathe, there’s no way he’s brushing his teeth on the daily. Now– I do think dental hygiene exists in Naruto. Unless I am remembering a filler cap, very early on during the series we see Naruto brushing his teeth in the mornings. (funny that a boy who more or less raised himself on junk ramen knows to brush his teeth, but I digress.) ]]

What would Itachi have done if Sasuke had just… died, sometime through the series? Lost a fight and it was fatal this time kind of thing?

[[ Well, that answer is dependent on details. Such as…how old is Sasuke when he dies. Where does he die? Who is the person/people that killed him? If it is not a person, in which environment did he die in? (ties back to where.) Did Sasuke have people with him when he died, people whose task it was to protect him and ensure he didn’t die? Was his death a political move that can be backed up via other sources, or a pure accident with no one truly at blame? (ties into if anyone was around to protect Sasuke, and did they at least do their best?)

All of these are important things to take into consideration when assessing Itachi’s reaction. They can all slightly change his course of actions. 

For example, if Sasuke is killed by Danzo anytime before his fight with Itachi (from part 1 to post orochimaru), Itachi will release the information about the Leaf he has, and kill himself. 

In situations where Sasuke’s death was an honest accident, he would just kill himself. He has no reason to live anymore– Sasuke was it.

Had Orochimaru killed him, he would kill Orochimaru, defile/possibly kill all his bases, and then kill himself. 

Most of the time– it will end in Itachi’s suicide. ]]

Do you think itachi held any real love for kisame? I know he would have still been secretive so there is no way there could hav3 been any real relationship friendship or otherwise. But. I love giant shark man so much I feel bad he was so alone i like to think that itachi at least cared for him

[[ I love ItaKisa but the chances of Itachi and Kisame actually being in a romantic/sexual relationship prior to Itachi’s death are like 0. Just to be honest. 

Itachi did care for him, and Kisame cared in return, but Kisame was loyal to Madara and Akatsuki, and Itachi was a double spy. Itachi planned to die, anyways, it would be reckless of him to enter a relationship when he plans to suicide via Sasuke. ]]

If madara and obito were helping orchestrate the massacre behind the scenes what power did itachi actually have over the situation. Like how could little 13 yo him stop them.

[[ I wouldn’t say Madara– I’d say Obito and Danzo. 

Madara had stopped caring about the Uchiha clan when they didn’t back him up the first time he tried to rebel, but he didn’t try to orchestrate their deaths. He was dead by the time Obito first attacked the village with the Kyuubi.

But you are right, Itachi had very little power when it comes to it. And not enough people realize that. Too many people think it’s cool to be “anti Itachi” when it comes to the massacre, despite that just about being out of his control. Danzo wanted them dead. All Shisui and Itachi could do was delay it, and not stop it completely. It would happen, one way or another. ]]

what if sasuke forced himself then?

[[ Then Itachi would end up relenting after a brief struggle. Again, speaking generally, following canon timeline post truth, etc. The struggle might even be more internal than it is physical, or he would just rationalize he deserves this and treat it as a form of punishment, even if that’s now how Sasuke means it.

I’m not saying this ship can’t happen, but I am saying if you expect it to just be perfectly happy or without any form of trouble you might want another ship, haha. I like this ship for its struggles. Not every ship occurs smoothly, and I like the fact Itasasu is unhealthy. Even if Sasuke and Itachi are bad for each other, at least their obsession is mutual.  ]]

“I mean, sure. We can ignore the fact that you’re only thirteen fuckin’ years old yourself,” He’s speaking /loud and clear/ for the rest of the noisy bastards in this room to hear, “We can ignore the fact that this rebellion would’ve ended in everyone’s deaths regardless. Hell. Let’s say everyone in here is completely blameless of shit since not a /single/ adult in this room wants to take responsibility.” Lips curling in disgust now, “Maybe this clan does need cleansing.”

What he would give to be outside of this cramped meeting hall. To be something as innocuous as an insect, or to simply not exist.

That one isn’t an option yet. There’s still Sasuke to worry about. He needs to exist for him. 

Yashiro grits his teeth. Being before Madara entailed being forcibly humble, but he was inviting discussion. He had too many feelings about Itachi, none of them positive. To think the kid had been working against them all this time, just like he assumed. 

“We wouldn’t have to do this if the kid just did what he was supposed to!” Why is it their fault the Chieftain’s kid is a dirty traitor?!

“They already want us dead, it’s only fair we fight back!” Tekka adds, standing, facing Madara directly. 

Itachi briefly wonders what would be the point in revealing there’s a spy in the room. 

Hinata gathered itachi’ s hair up and ran a comb through it. “I know I have long great hair but I have always been envious of yours” she said, smiling.

“Why is that– Hinata-san.” He stutters, if only because the comb will actually have trouble making it through the length of his hair. The unexpected pull is actually quite painful, and in a few moments more he will reach up to pull the woman’s hands away from his head. 

Itachi has always been modest, and never put forth any care into his hair that was strictly necessary. A wash every few days, with only what was available. Why would she be jealous of hair that was barely taken care of? Hers on the other hand, had a shine to it, as well as being neatly styled. 

Then what would the situation with sasuke be like if itachi had an arranged marriage after he rejected sasuke ?

[[ Oh no, no, just in general, but assuming the canon timeline, also. In general if Sasuke confessed feelings Itachi would try to reject him gently. But if Sasuke keeps pushing he would eventually get his way. 

If we’re talking a non-canon situation, like non-massacre, reasons #1 and #2 would take top priority, as there’s no way their clan would recognize two blood brothers in a relationship. Reason #3 would not exist here. It would be MUCH more difficult/practically impossible for Sasuke to eventually get his way since Itachi would have ended up marrying Izumi. In a non-massacre situation, Sasuke would 99% of the time end up pining for something he can’t have. 

If it’s like, a post war scenario, reasons #1 and #2 would be less important, but reason #3 would be in full effect unless Sasuke found a way to alleviate it. Even then, their relationship would have to be secret, and if we’re allowing for canon, Sasuke would be cheating. It would still have to involve Sasuke talking him into it  to begin with. If Itachi discovers Sasuke is already married, “You are spoken for, why do you need me?/”You already loved someone enough to marry” becomes reason #4. ]]
