In Widening Gyre, I’m pretty sure that the rest of the Uchiha clan would simply nod in agreement upon learning about/overhearing Obito threatening gristly death to everyone every ten minutes while Kakashi is indisposed. It’s a perfectly rational reaction! (And why are the non-Uchiha looking at them like that?) And oh, the LOOKS on Tobirama, Hashirama, Madara, and Izuna’s /faces/ upon being confronted with their ‘dead little brothers’… They obviously grew up very powerful, but at what cost?!

sanjuno:

Oh yes. The funniest part of that is that most of the Senju are really freaked out by the overprotective drive. Hashirama accepts it as part of his BFF’s personality/a Clan trait but doesn’t really get it? But Tobirama? Tobirama 100% Gets It and he’s actually given grudging approval regarding Rin and Obito hooking up with his little brother because the Team is So Extra about their interdependence on one another’s continued survival to remain functional human beings. The Uchiha ship it too, of course. XP

AT WHAT COST?!?!? is pretty much what Hashirama is wailing for most of the fic. Meanwhile Tobirama is remembering taking a beating from Butsuma because of Hashirama’s politics and Madara is remembering his mother committing suicide by combat to get between her sons and a (supposedly) “Senju” assassin. Those two are mostly just thankful that their little brothers survived and made enough noise while escaping to draw attention to their camp.
