Title: Violent Plans
Fandom: Naruto
Pairings: None
Rating: PG
Genre: AU, general
Word count: 2,805
Spoilers: None
Summary: It was only a matter of time until Sasuke was caught -- and it was a matter of irony that saved him after.
Note: Yet another based-on-a-dream-I-had!fic. But I'm positive I only had that dream in the first place due to reading alory_shannon's much better Sasuke + Deidara prison fic, which somehow unconsciously inspired... this... thing.
Note #2: ...I think this -- the latter half, especially -- reflects the fact that I was keeping Prison Break in mind while writing it. Minus the southern pedophile. And except that, if I were going to actually do something more with this fic, I would have had Sakura as the prison doctor, and-- Yeah, no. One-shot.

Title: Forgiveness One More Time
Fandom: Naruto
Pairings: None
Rating: PG
Genre: General, drama
Word count: 3,905
Spoilers: Yes, for Sasuke's/Itachi's pasts. Their REAL pasts, note.
Summary: Sometimes, at the end of the line, even the most stubborn know when to quit -- and luckily the more stubborn are there to keep their heads above the water. Sasuke. Tsunade.

And dedicated to the_arizzle, whom I told I would write this FOREVER ago. 8D; And I know any attempts by myself to live up to the awesome of our Sasuke + Tsunade interactions are in vain, but you inspire me nonetheless. ♥

Note: This... I don't know. This is my version of Sasuke finally snapping, but at the same time not. Crazy but sane. Crazy in the sense that he's finally been pushed past what he can handle, but still sane in that it's not insane by normal standards. If that makes sense. And while I would have preferred to go into Tsunade's side of it and explain more of her actions and thought processes rather than simply hinting at them from a distracted Sasuke's POV, this is long enough as it is and I felt it took too much focus from Sasuke as the center. But. We'll see how it turned out. ALSO, "Just Stop" by Disturbed? = Total win in inspiration.

( This was Madara all over again, only instead of discovering the good in Itachi, Sasuke was confronting the demons in himself. )
