Kie's eyes are watering and her voice is way too loud as she turns to JJ.
“And you -- Fuck! You always do this. I'm tired of it, Jayj! Just talk to me!”

Summary
“Get out of here and wait for your food before I make you, Naruto.”
“But you’re already finished—”
“Get. Out.”
Suigetsu, who had just refilled his drink, chose this exact moment to insert himself into the scene. He leaned toward Sasuke, propping his elbow on the kitchen counter with all the grace of a man thoroughly enjoying someone else’s misery.
“You do realise he’s just going to keep stealing if you don’t physically restrain him, right?”
Sasuke shot him and his newly filled cup a deeply distrustful glare. “I could physically restrain you.”
Suigetsu grinned, taking a long swig of his drink. “Kinky.”

.
In which Kakashi found Suigetsu and Naruto competing over Sasuke’s attention instead of Sakura and Karin as he once thought it would be—and surprisingly, that was much more entertaining.

Summary
Itachi had avoided looking into the abyss for so long that now, just a glance was enough to pull him downward, plunging headfirst into its depths, hopelessly getting deeper and deeper, and finally swallowed by the eternal void.
And yet, the six-pointed star Mangekyou with its unsettlingly unusual inverted colours remained burned into his mind, lingering at the edges of his consciousness. Along with it came the echoes of pained whispers, phantom voices that clawed at his heartstrings, tightening until they threatened to snap.
Itachi wanted to make up for all the years irrevocably lost between them, but deep down, he was scared that no matter what he tried to do, it would never be enough.
He didn’t even have the courage to take the first step.
But Itachi wasn’t the only one struggling to bridge the gap.

“ Wake up, “ He nudged.
Itachi does. Not violently, as Sasuke was expecting, but he doesn't look exactly happy.
“ …Sasuke? “
“ Hey. “
“ It's the middle of the night. “ He groans, drowsy. He can't blame him.Sasuke backs off from the bed to give his brother some space. “ I know. Why did you leave the light open? “
“ The light? “
“ Yes. “
“ What light? “–
Sasuke, after going on his atonement journey for no more than eight months, decides to return to Konoha.
He's immediately reminded why he doesn't stick around the second things start going sideways.

Summary
Haunted by the memory of Kuina, Zoro drifts through the seas, carrying the weight of a promise that has defined his life. Even amidst the camaraderie of the Straw Hats, he finds little joy in anything beyond his swords and his training.
When the crew arrives in Loguetown, Zoro witnesses a marine swordswoman take down two men in a single slash. Her sudden display of skill mirrors the ghost of Kuina in unnerving ways. The encounter shakes him deeply, forcing memories of his lost friend to surface and leaving him shaken in ways he rarely allows anyone to see.
Throughout it all, Sanji watches quietly. As Zoro grapples with grief, admiration, and confusion, a fragile tension begins to grow between him and Sanji, hinting at a bond that might become something more.
