[ hides her disappointment that he has arrived, and yet Pein is nowhere in sight; only furthers her belief that he will show up soon ]

[dictated in return]

My sentiments exactly.

[ pauuuuse ]

Konan. Are you well?

I am. And you?

Since we're having a little rendezvous, perhaps you would not mind telling me just what you mean by 'interesting'?

Fine, thank you.

Nothing in particular. Watching as you and Pein decimated Konoha with little effort. Not personally, of course, but a clone sufficed to give me an idea of what was happening.

Mmm, so our timing is quite similar.

Pardon my curiosity, but what purpose does Uchiha Sasuke serve in our Organization? You've merely implemented him into our arsenal for assisting us in collecting the final Tailed-Beasts, correct?

That, in itself, is quite relieving.

Yes, that is correct. He serves a... further purpose that I am currently unable to say. I only ask for your patience and trust until I am able to properly inform you as to what the circumstances are surrounding him.

[has always found Madara a shady figure, and not just because of her mistrust for any authority that is not of Pein's; can see the underlying power struggle between the two men behind their mutual respect and benefits, and it unnerves her that she is not entirely certain of what Madara is capable of]

Business as usual, then. I had been hoping you had some information on the status of our mission, but I'm confident that He has succeeded.

You Uchiha are all very enigmatic. I trust you know what you are doing, of course.

Unfortunately I bare no news that you do not have already. I apologize.

Perhaps it is in our blood. Has he been difficult for you?

We still have a few left to arrive here. I'm sure someone will have pertinent information.

I can handle it. I'm just waiting for Pein.

I know both Itachi and Sasuke are here aside from yourself. Are there other members of Akatsuki?

Sasori is alive and present. It would appear your former partner, Deidara, is alive as well.

Please don't tell me you're going to do that odd impersonation again.

Unfortunate. I was hoping more capable members would have been here but I suppose I can not complain.

Most thankfully those days are behind me, I can not see why it would be required in this place.

[Hmm; she's amused. My my, Madara is so ungrateful to his fallen comrades ♥ ]

Sasori was incredibly talented. To this day I have no idea why he let it go to waste. I am convinced he did not even try.

[just ... does not even want to comment on Deidara, has no idea how to deal with his type ]

As long as you can get Deidara to behave.

I was more so speaking of Deidara in regards to incapabilities, but that very idea has vexed me many times.

[ just pauses for thought ]

I can assure that will be no problem at all.

It is good to have some general authority here. We will await any orders. I assume you want us to keep quiet and lay low until then?

I suppose that would be preferable. If anything, I simply request that the nin of Konoha be avoided until further notice and to not create any unnecessary trouble otherwise.

Although I realize that is not a problem with you, I am more concerned about the actions of Deidara, which I am able to deal with myself.

So be it.

[pauses as she's ... slightly ashamed of her earlier actions, hoping Madara does not comment on them at all; is usually more practical, but was taken from the heat of torture and battle and had some bloodlust ]

Mmn, I know you are.

Please take this time to act as you wish; from what I have read, actions here have no repercussions in our own world. It will serve no purpose to train or work excessively.

The castle can't make up it's mind, it seems.

Evidently so, yes.

I see you have been [ pause ] busy.

If you could call it that. I've been preoccupied; the castle is just another obstacle I must overcome.

I would consider it more of an opportunity, if anything.

What do you mean?

You have a chance to see if you are making a mistake or not. Not that you would be able to rectify the choice upon returning home, but the opportunity itself is interesting enough to indulge. Think of it as a personal social experiment, Sasuke. There are many chances here for you to see what was once available to you that you will never be able to have once you leave.

I don't understand.

The Leaf are here, are they not? You will never, after going home, be able to return and have the bonds you once did. Why not indulge yourself, if only briefly?

No.

No? [ is so fucking amused ]

I don't have the patience. I have no desire to indulge myself in anything.

Nothing at all? But even your brother is alive. That is certainly a chance you will never be given in Konoha, even if you suddenly decided to betray Akatsuki.

Fuck it. I know what I'm doing, I know what my options are, but I've already made my decisions and I'm going to stick by them.

You may think I'm wasting opportunities, but I see it as consistency.

To each their own, Sasuke. I was merely giving a suggestion to you, that is all. After all, I wouldn't want you to be making the wrong choices, now would I? What sort of relative lets their own blood do that.

[journal shuts LMAO IS JUST LIKE "UGH..I FUCKING HATE YOU ALL"]

[ laughing; thanks for the entertainment, Sasuke-kun~ ]

[ignores you, sry ):]

[ s'cool, gives me more time to manipulate your brother ♥ thanks for not distracting me, man ]
