i adore all your omakes and had to laugh at every one of them. you've written a marvelous work and while i find the themes sometimes hard and dreary linke danzo and root you balace it very well with all that humor and light-heartedness. i like how your plot is devianting from canon but isn't one bit preditcable and everytime i think i know what's going on i'm perplexed again. never would have thought that orochimaru was 'savable'. your story is a piece of art and i am intrigued how it will goe from here.

i want a chibi gaara of my own

nobody likes danzo. too much unneccessary violence. in my oppinion a very selfish person.

shisui: hi itachi! how have you been? what have you done the time? oh, no, i'm not dead, why would you think so?
itachi: well i saw you die , strange isn't it? and i abandoned konoha because family members suddenly and unexplicably died, and as i have no experience with being a missing-nin i'm learning the ropes from our anchestor who wants to enslave the word, but as i'm new i have no duties and spend my time doing nothing and reading.
shisui: i conquered mist!

shisui, king of whatever-village ready to take over mist. one village at a time!
:-)

now itachi is thoughts are turning bleak again and no shisui to get him out if it...
i have a question, as itachi has now the crow summong contract, wouldn't the crows know shisui isn't dead?
either because he at one time has to summon a crow or because his name is still on the contract? i've read some stories where the summons know when the sumoner dies and some other where his name on the summoning scroll gets unreadable after his death. don't know how much that is canon, i remember the arashi-minato, but it would be interesting how that would play into everything.

so, fugaku is possibly missing, some other uchiha too and instead of poisoning some got attacked if this right?
allright, so who else is there who could have done that? i mean it dosen't look like tobito was it or he would have killed more wouldn't he?
so my guess is orochimaru? stealing sharingans while there is the opportuniry?
that would explain a medical clone... but what would he want with fugaku? i'm confused.
but very excited about the change and the future plot changes.

hmm.. never thought sakumos death could be anything other than a suicide, but now i've read about it it makes sense. food for thought...

woah, i guessed there would be more trouble with the clone business and shisui convinced himself that he was a clone! haha! double woah. that scene at the river was gold. but poor itachi. and i hope shisui gets his eye back fixed.

those two shisuis running around konoha were very confusing. totally loved it!

i thought it was very funny that the only thing letting shisui live was that everybody agreed not to want a crow stuffed down their throats.

eh? bacon-rubbing-no-jutsu? O.O

awww, now i want some ShisuixAnko, i think they would be an awesome pairing.

and it's definitely cats. cats are so betrer than dogs.

so, basically naruto conned shisui into a contract, made him buy suplies to fix the door AND manadged to drug him...
heh, that makes shisui seem really gullible. hahaha!

the kyuubi POV was great!

ha! love the cat-crazy madara!
