'Uchiwa'. I wondered.

the symbol catches his eye — cy may be, before almost anything else, a mathematician — but what is math if not the foundational art of the universe? there is a simplicity and beauty to the numeracy of everything known and unknown that is older than everything but atoms.

but the paper fan... he'll remember it. he'll try to. as long as he can carry it. like the other little details of sasuke he's tucked away like precious things, more worth in knowing that as a boy he once sat desolate in the ruin of a garden with plants pulled up around him than in all the gems and jewellery in all the worlds he's ever set foot on.


I want to see it all. Whatever you're comfortable showing me.

he knows each stone tells a story. he knows, too, that at some point they'll walk past a place where the body of a kinsman fell. ten years is not enough time to put that to rest, given how grief is nested alongside love, inseparably entwined in the core of who he is. but sasuke would not take him here, nor show him these things if he didn't wish to. there is importance in visiting graves and in old homes.
