Sometimes I think of all of their wasted potential and I get sad. ;_; Getting better at drawing these two tho!

Personal rant, really no reason to this since I try* to stay away from negative content in the Naruto fandom, as much as I can even tho I constantly fail. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

 Anti Naruto//Sakura content from Pro SasukeStans i can actually get and shit you are so free to take any stance if ya want but … There is usually an indifference to Sasuke’s own feelings that is always underscored in the rhetoric I see. It’s usually along the lines that Sasuke is being abused, stalked and harassed by Sakura and Naruto and it never really diverts into Sasuke’s own destructive behaviors (this isn’t anti Sasuke, it’s honest, Sasuke has experienced horrible trauma w/ pretty much zero positive coping mechanisms, therapy and/or support and essentially bonds do not equal support for your mental illness if they are kept on the back burner. Not to mention his best friend is just as wounded as he is and even so they still found some peace with one another?

Sasuke even compares his depth of feeling and admiration to Naruto to Itachi, the focus of his world as a child and young adult, so we can dismiss the concept that Sasuke hated Naruto, saw him as only a rival and an obstacle to shovel out of his way. This goes back to the Land of Waves Arc, where he chose Naruto’s life over vengeance, his sole purpose at the time.

Before leaving he thanks Sakura, quite tenderly, and she gets a lot of heat for trying to prevent him from leaving. But like I guess if someone I loved was basically going to join a fucking cult I should let them express themselves, I should totally allow them to wander off even with knowledge they are not well and are suffering from some weird ass mark that makes them kinder crazy.

Sakura, herself had seen the way the mark took its toll on Sasuke and did her best to prevent him from succumbing to it, because Team 7 knows Sasuke is not a killer, he’s not inherently violent, he’s an Avenger.

Either Sakura doesn’t do enough, she’s manipulative or it’s Naruto being possessive and doing too much. She’snot Naruto, she’s not going to physically fight him because that’s literally never been their way of communicating - that’s a SNS thing.

Is Naruto and Sasuke’s way of “communicating through fists” healthy and romantic and sosososososososo awesome ?

Short answer: N O Are they both active participants in this and neither one is in the position of abuser and victim? Y E S But either way, it does become a genuine link for them to display their deepest insecurities and feelings towards one another. Whether we like it or not, it’s a part of their way of expressing themselves to one another.

This was the way they painted what their bond truly meant to one another at the end of the day, through the fucking nit and grit and blood - they were in essence, still those lonely, heartbroken kids at a swingset, and sitting by lake.

Then comes the concept of Naruto and Sakura robbing Sasuke of his personal freedoms and harassing him to justify any means to their own end, without taking Sasuke’s feelings into regard. I hear you I do, Sasuke has every reason in his arsenal to take every course of action he did, I can read into every argument that justifies Sasuke’s behavior because I sympathize and would probably take a Hobbes, Leviathan approach to that kind of world experience too. No fuking j ooke s, But are Sakura and Naruto suppose to suppress their own selves in order to appease Sasuke?

Ya sure like Vote Sasuke when that includes my DEATH and the death of Gaara and the other Kage? (ya i singled gaara out, sue me) and for Sakura, is she to stand idly by while Sasuke assumes the role of darkness? I’m sorry but you can’t tell me you would want this for someone you loved. Maybe don’t agree with how they went about their ways, but are you legit gonna tell me they should of left Sasuke alone????like . wat. ? Then comes the argument that yes they should have, like Team Taka they should have LET THEMSELVES BE STABBED.

Because Sasuke and his struggle and revenge are all that matters? Fuck Karin.

Also isn’t this such a good look? Ya, mate, he should be fine.

So let’s ignore his natural distaste for senseless killing and let him continue to hurt himself. Even though Sasuke has mentioned, in no uncertain terms, that team 7 is his precious family, the ones he once again made bonds with, and in return they loved him as well? It was never one sided?

That’s a tenderness, a love and a deep connection he has with both of them, and it was earned through their devotion and loyalty and earnest conviction that they could make him happy again??

You all right tho, he looks really defeated. Smh he is totally smiling, like he has finally been freed of a certain ache and now can seal a chapter of his life and move to something new (I don’t necessarily approve nor like what comes after this part myself [i.e imprisonment and redemption arcs] but at this moment you can’t tell me Sasuke isn’t happy.)
