  1. Summary

    "An aged man is but a paltry thing,
    A tattered coat upon a stick, unless
    Soul clap O sages standing in God's holy fire
    As in the gold mosaic of a wall,
    Come from the holy fire, perne in a gyre,
    And be the singing-masters of my soul.
    Consume my heart away; sick with desire
    And fastened to a dying animal
    It knows not what it is; and gather me
    Into the artifice of eternity."
    Excerpt from Sailing to Byzantium by William Butler Yeats

    This is a containment zone for "Come From the Holy Fire" and any additional side pieces.

    Disclaimer: Title choices aside and personal enjoyment and use of some themes aside, Come From the Holy Fire generally matches canon tones, meaning that there is humor in the fic.

    To let you circle the drain

    All your sums and your pieces
    Are enough to clean up
    All the messes you’ve made"

    Summary

    Sasuke's battle with Deidara is interrupted by one of Deidara's siblings, shifting his perspective a little. As the contrasts and comparisons between his own life and that of this girl grow ever more visible, questions he doesn't find welcome start creeping into his mind. Like how much he can trust what people tell him, and how far he's willing to go for revenge.

    A ghost of Shikamaru's past shows up in the flesh as his hard-earned justice unravels. The more strands he grasps at, the more he finds himself tearing loose, and the more he's confronted with what his actions mean to those who don't see it as justice.

    Ino and Sai are caught up in the lives of two siblings whose lives, and world, are forever touched by the blood in their veins. As danger comes to demand an unfair tithe, they must choose between their own safety and that of strangers.

    Three stories intertwine around the schemes and actions of one man, whose choices bring war to the Ninja World, in spite of all best efforts.
