There were very few times Itachi had actually felt intimidated by his cousin.
This was one of those times. Itachi hesitated, feeling a little trapped and cursing his choice of words. Still, he'd started down this road, and now he couldn't turn back. This might be worse than letting Obito know he had health problems.
Itachi looked at his scarred hands, resting in his lap. "There is a part of me that will always believe that. I will always assign worth to myself by how useful I am to my village and my clan.
"I know that's not how you view any of us. I know there are people who care about me and will always care about me no matter what I do, but. . ." Ashes and death Obito was going to make him take leave for his mental health next. Itachi really wished someone would interrupt or someone would attack him.
Itachi breathed out. "Is it such a bad thing that I want to be useful?" Maybe if he made Obito answer his questions, things would go a little smoother.
