Itachi And Sasuke - Tumblr Posts

A Naruto comic about Sasuke and Itachi.

Frame 1. Young teen Itachi kneels in front of kid Sasuke, who's been playing with a ball. Itachi's expression is serious as he says, "Sasuke. There's a technique every Uchiha must learn," and Sasuke makes a curious sound.
Frame 2. "And now you're old enough for me to teach you," continues Itachi. Sasuke is starry-eyed and his face is flushed. He's astonished that Itachi wants to teach him some important technique.

Frame 3. Itachi says, "Hopefully you'll never have to use it", and takes a scroll out of his hip pouch while Sasuke, smiling and excited, kneels down too.
Frame 4. Itachi continues, "But if you're in a desperate situation, it might be your only choice." He's solemnly looking into Sasuke's eyes, holding a scroll in his hand.

Frame 5. Itachi says, "Such is the life of shinobi. You must be prepared for anything." Sasuke nods eagerly, surrounded by sparkles and fully ready to learn.
Frame 6. Itachi and Sasuke are then shown kneeling in front of a long scroll that depicts a graph with the Uchiha crest. Both of them are holding embroidery hoops. They're using red thread, and Itachi says, "...so if you ever need to emroider our clan's crest onto your clothes, use this secret ~Uchiha stitching technique~ and it'll come out really nice and smooth..." Sasuke, scowling furiously, thinks, "It's such a useless technique."
Frame 7. 10 years later in Orochimaru's hideout. Teen Sasuke, fresh out of the bath with a towel wrapped around his hips, is holding up his black Uchiha T-shirt. The T-shirt looks kinda small. Sasuke's mouth is a thin line, his eyes hidden behind his bangs. There's an arrow pointing to Sasuke and text that says "has grown out of his last Uchiha shirt".
Frame 8. We see Sasuke sitting on the floor. He's dressed into his first Shippuden outfit sans the shirt, which he holds in his hands. He's furiously stitching the Uchiha chrest onto it, thinking, "FUCKING ITACHI." 

The end.

The description of frame 6 was almost fully copied from @princess-of-purple-prose's alternative description done in a reblog. Thank you, @princess-of-purple-prose, for the permission to use your description.

have you ever wondered where did sasuke get all his uchiha crested shirts from after he left konoha?

my friend @prejmenuji and I sure have, and that's how this comic came to life

Listen. The scene was horribly tragic in retrospect and all but.

Something about the moment in the Itachi vs Sasuke final fight when Itachi stretches out his arms and yells "You have my spare eyes!" just never fails to hit me as a. Oh yeah, that's an older sibling trying to scare the sh_t out of his younger sibling moment. I don't know what it is but it just. Has such strong "I'm gonna getcha!" energy to me.
