Fics like Book of Starry Skies

“One of you will be the Hokage after me,” the Sandaime says. His pipe lies smoking in an ashtray on the desk before him. “And the other will be the pillar who supports him.” This is not friendly supposition as to the future. This is a decree. Itachi thinks of his brother and his parents and his clan, he thinks of a best friend who disappeared in the night and left corpses and his oaths behind, he thinks of a village at peace instead of haunted by the shadows of war, and says, “Hai.” But Kakashi says, “With respect, I would rather not, Hokage-sama.” To which the Sandaime says, “And if I make it an order?” Kakashi’s face is perfectly bland. “No,” he says. The Sandaime makes it an order. (Itachi-centric: In which Itachi lives his Best Life and nobody wants to be Hokage.)
