No such thing. We were a fully integrated family in my memory Sasuke. Part of the village. Sure, there was a head house and a few near it, but not everyone by any stretch. Just like the Senju were when they were a bigger clan still before they dwindled.

[He watched him for a moment.]

But thank you for telling me that changed, it really... it makes sense, then, that things happened. You have all the pieces now to figure this out on your own Sasuke, you're just not looking.

I'll only tell you if you guess right, because until you're ready to talk about it openly, you're not ready to be told. You're smart enough and strong enough to do this, so I'll wait until you do.

[He turned in place, tightening his arm around him before looking back out at the clouds.]
