Summary
Bodies, and bodies, and bodies: Let him be one of the many. Let him be cold, and dead, and uncaring. Honest and sincere. Entirely himself, not the millions of others. Nothing to hide, anymore—couldn’t hide it then.
Death would make an honest man out of him.
There’s really no other way he can be forced.

Summary
Orochimaru perceives gaps as opportunities whereas humans perceive gaps as failures, and that is what most chiefly sets him apart and what Orochimaru most chiefly relies on.
Because he, too, is an empty space.

Summary
Little Rabbit knows the snake must be wise; without limb or teeth, yet he never goes hungry.
"Snake," asks hungry Little Rabbit, "what is it that you eat?"
"Little Rabbit," says the round-bellied snake, "when I hunger again, I will show you."
An empathetic take on the years Sasuke spent with Orochimaru.

Summary
The agony of looking down on a child who carries the same pain as a forty-year lifespan—he might as well wear a bag over his head if he ever wishes to partake in decent society.
No one will look at him if it makes them feel sad.
So, Kakashi started to wear a mask.

Summary
Sasuke shouts himself awake almost before the sun crests over the Hokage monument.
The light, gentle as it washes over the Uchiha compound, cuts through the windows and bathes Sasuke in warm, golden light as he lays there and tries to remember how to breathe. He looks with unseeing eyes at where the gaps in the curtains have let the gentle light in to hit his hands, his chest, his thighs, and the sensation leaves him feeling cold. The nightmares are still vivid as they dance in front of his eyes, and all he can think is: that's where it was, that's where I had to wash Mother's blood away.

Summary
The children that awaken these crimson eyes are given two choices: either have the eyes removed, or be put to death. Most, perhaps predictably, choose to remove their eyes. Yet none survive longer than a few days without them.
They all kill themselves soon after.
