No But It Makes Even Better Those Flowers Gai Gifted Kakashi After The Pain Act!

No but it makes even better those flowers Gai gifted Kakashi after the Pain Act!

Gai, obliviously giving flowers to Kakashi after their race: congratulations, rival!

Kakashi: well traditionally it should be a blade but damn it.

Gai: ???

Sakumo on the pure land, tearing up:

Okay so funny idea-

Rivalry is the only way to court a Hatake.

Being rivals with a Hatake means you are courting them.

Kakashi : *waiting for Gai, for almost over 20 years (!), to finally give him any fucking gifts that he could accept, signifying they would now be mates*

Gai : ETERNAL RIVAL !!! :D

Kakashi : *silently crying in his head*

Kakashi's ninken : *sigh in pain*

Gai : *has absolutely no idea about Hatake courting* ? :D

In the pure world :

Sakumo : *wincing for his son* aouch... My poor little pup...

Dai : *annoyed at his son obliviousness* SAGE DAMNIT SON-

Also... The Senju brothers being half Hatake.

Izuna : Aha ! We meet again rival !

Tobirama : Pardon !? since when ?! *Blushing shocked*

Izuna : Eh ??? *Confused*

Hashirama : !!! You didn't tell me Tobi ! :0

Madara : Izuna you moron ! They're half Hatake !!!

Izuna : !!! OH UM- NEVERMIND ! *blushing embarrassed*

Hashirama : Aw :'( *disappointed*

Tobirama : ... *Is secretly disappointed too*

Touka : *is laughing like a hyena*

Hikaku : *is sighing in exhaustion*

The rest of the Senjus and Uchihas fighting : *Stop fighting to observe bemused at the interaction*

During the summer where Hashirama and Madara meet... :

Madara : So are we rivals now ?

Hashirama : Ah- um... Maybe...? If you wanna, I wouldn't mind... *Is fidgeting, shy and blushing*

Madara : *looks at him confused* ???

Hashirama : I'm half Hatake...

Madara : OH- hhhhhhh... No. Sorry... *Looks away blushing, actually sad he has to say no*

Hashirama : Oh... ;'( *Sad little puppy*

I saw him today and had to doodle him between working

I feel like a lot of people don't give Obito the respect he deserves, and mostly because they tend to disregard his actual reasons

There's a lot of jokes about Obito never getting over Rin, but many people actually think everything he ever did was indeed to see her again; and yes, while he does aim to see her again on Tsukuyomi, including talking about how the 'Rin of this world cannot be real, because to be real she had to be alive' that's not the actual reason for all he did.

Obito's story isn't supposed to be about a lover who lost his precious person, but about a man who lost all hope in the entire world, not just his world. Obito himself calls Kakashi out for thinking that all he did was because of him and Rin.

While, as a fictional history it may be easy for us to choose reality over ilusion, in the ninja world where everyone faces death everyday, you have to agree that the chance to live a happy, peaceful life, even if it's under a genjutsu, would be a choice many would choose. Hell, most people in our world would choose it as well.

Tldr: What made Obito rebel wasn't Rin's death, but the circumstances of the world that allowed it to happen.

ALSO! Consider the human freakiness:

Obito is half plant. Like, he has Hashirama's cells AND half of his body is Zetsu. Just consider: an photosynthetic no-need-for-food, not-breathing, half-my-body-is-artificial, maniacal Uchiha who has maybe one or two healthy neurons, since the rest is all burning with inherent insanity.

Also, he's hard to kill. Insanely, comically hard to kill. You cut his arm? No problem, he will just find a Zetsu and glue another one in place

The most important thing to remember while writing Obito is that he is a freak. You are legally obligated to have him say, think or do something that will make the reader go "hey obito what the fuck" every other paragraph. He is not allowed to be normal.

That goes double for any time he is anywhere near Kakashi, who is also a freak but in a different way, and who only makes Obito more insane

Damn, I literally just rewatched this exact scene, like, one hour ago!

Also, let's look at the bright side, at least Lee was sleeping... no harm done, I guess :)))

I've just rewatched the hospital scene where Gaara tried to finish what he has started and kill Lee. So random thought: has Lee ever found out that Gaara went to him at the hospital attempting to kill him? Has Guy told him?🤔

The closest Gaara ever gets to trying to kill Lee again is when Lee wakes him up at the crack of dawn to train (it's a daily occurrence)
