Iga no Sanchou

by Catchandelier

The older the clan, the crazier the amount of bullshit you can do. There were ninjas before the Sage, after all. A drabble-fic in twenty-five chapter arcs, thirteen arcs total. Hold on to your burn cream, kiddies. (We're going straight to hell!)

Rumor has it that the Iga clan brought great misfortune- it's changed from the former head, Nadeshiko-chan, bringing terrible luck with her in the form of her three daughters, to her daughters being omens of terrible luck, to the Iga heirs being outright unlucky. No one really associates with them- and the only people they really associated with before they were genin were the remaining Uchihas. After they became genin, events conspired to make them interact more with the noble clans of the village; Nadeshiko-chan was indispensable for the war effort, and I owe her a great deal.

I might have failed her, but I won't fail her daughters.

I personally think it's interesting that the Iga are actually employing the Uchiha clan in a sort of body guarding capacity. I think it's interesting that there's never been a request for removal or retrieval of any of the Iga rams- not from the clans that the rams are known to harass, and not from the Iga themselves. I think it's interesting that they haven't looked at me once all evening- they will not meet my eyes, and actually shied away from Kushina. I think it's very interesting that they're so blunt and understated; they don't pander to Naruto, but they don't ignore him either.

I think it's going to be very interesting to see what they'll do during the conversational portion of the evening- after dinner, what will they do to entertain themselves?

Well. I'm about to find out.
