There's one important question no one has asked: What would Madara see in his Infinite Tsukuyomi? The story of Uchiha Madara, and the woman he would do anything to see again, even if it meant defeating death itself. Hashi/Mito/Mada (Mito triangle, lemons, no yaoi). Major feels. Canon-compliant. Based loosely on classic romance (Tristan & Isolde). Tobirama's in here too.

Complete / Life is a fickle thing, but death is certain. MadaraOC
