dear anon

thank you for the adorable prompt! sorry it took a few days since i was busy, but here!

really hope you like it because i had fun making it ❤️

its not...? its established in VOTE1, and specifically upon this realization (reciprocated feelings) is when this happens

the headband was requested by naruto to show that they are equals, and the sharingan develops when you suffer the pain of feeling that you were too weak to protect someone you love deeply, and subconsciously wish for that strength to prevent it from happening again

naruto couldve also gone for the disabling shot here, but he didnt. he specifically went for the shot that was established as his test to prove he was strong enough. why does that matter? well the issue at hand here isnt fighting for justice for the clan like people claim, but it was actually "the pain of losing those you love" and whether pain makes you stronger.

this also means the fight isnt about trying to get naruto to stop chasing, its about naruto proving his mettle because thats what is desired of him. tell me, if youre trying to run away from someone, why would you stay to try to wake them up once youve disabled them? why would you cry and collapse in heartbreak at the realization that they werent strong enough?
