Unpopular opinion: Itachi was not written to be a good guy from the beginning
There’s no way you’re convincing me that Kishimoto had “tragic hero” in mind when he made Itachi put his 12-year-old brother through a Genjutsu loop, forcing him to relive their parents' murder over and over again. (518,400 times, 72 continuous hours)
That’s not “I did it for you to get stronger,” that’s psychological torture.
You don’t torment someone like that if your end goal is to protect them. You don’t traumatize a child into obsession and isolation if your plan is “kind older brother pretending to be the villain.”
I’m sorry, but the retcon is real. The original Itachi was meant to be a cold-blooded prodigy turned rogue.
The twist didn’t come until way later... and while it was powerful, it doesn’t erase the fact that they flipped his entire character upside down.
Let’s stop pretending it was all part of the plan. Itachi was written as a villain. A good one. A terrifying one. The martyr stuff came after.

"real sasuke fans are happy that he got a family and is loved, not say he's a loner" yeah, right, real sasuke fans wanted him to get justice for his clan that was massacred because of the military xenophobic system that he's stuck in now, real sasuke fans wanted him to achieve revolution against Konoha's dictatorship and flawed system that now has completely erased the Uchiha clan's story from the village where they were mass murdered, dimishing Konoha's gruesome actions towards them in a rock outside the village as some kind of unimportant anecdote, real sasuke fans wanted him to stay away from Sakura, Naruto and Kakashi that misunderstood him and demonized him all the time, and reduced him to their own selfish desires and idealizations, and wanted him to go back to the village that dismissed his clan's protests against the xenophobia they suffered through decades and wanted sasuke dead as well, denied them from reaching political power, and ultimately killed them off unfairly, real sasuke fans aren't content with the atrocity of the ending they gave to sasuke, that now is stuck on the fascist regime that killed his whole family and tried to kill him too.

Warnings: death, sex, minors DNI!!!!!, 18+ only, slight stalking, overstimulation, breeding/clan repopulation, injury mention. I think that covers lmk what I missed!
Plot: a forgotten Uchiha girl becomes Sasuke’s key to restoring their clan. His need for reconciliation turns into an obsession and a craving for her.
Obsession
She had always been quiet, clinging to the background, never wanting to be seen. The academy had enough students craving the spotlight, she only wanted to remain unnoticed, but this was hard for an Uchiha to achieve.
She returned home from the academy one night, wondering what her mother had made for supper. Entering her family’s home, however, only brought pain. Her parents bodies lay slain on the tatami mats near the entrance. A room meant to bring peace and tranquility forever soiled by her worst nightmare.
When Sasuke left the village to seek revenge on Itatchi, the one who massacred her clan, she had begged to go with him. “This doesn’t concern you, just stay out of my way.” He’d told her. So she let him leave, and remained alone in her grief.
She vowed to never be left behind again, and set out to make herself a weapon. Her years of training earned her a spot in the anbu at the crest of the fourth great ninja war. She became an asset to the leaf, leading a team of anbu against the reanimated sanin Jiraya.
After the war, she returned to her family lands and reclaimed them, building her own home there as one of the only surviving Uchiha. As she was making dinner, she heard a knock on her door.
“Sasuke?” She asked, confused by his presence. They’d never been friends, merely acquaintances at best. “Is everything okay?” She asked, anxiety barely masked.
“I was visiting my families home when I noticed your home. I didn’t know you still lived here.” He said blankly.
“Well Uchiha don’t exactly have a great reputation so moving away was almost impossible. Besides, I won’t let a few rogue ninja tarnish my clan name entirely. Maybe some day there’ll be more of us again.” She spoke softly, smiling kindly. “Would you like to come in? I have some soup almost ready.” She asked, shifting awkwardly.
“I don’t want to intrude. I’ll see you around.” He waved as he turned. He visited her frequently, sometimes he’d knock and speak with her. Usually though, he would just watch from the shadows. He watched her cook, eat, clean. He watched her tend to her garden and imagined what it would be like to see her with children. Over time she came to represent something lost. Something he never thought he’d see again.
Her hands in the garden seemed to him her taking care of his clan. Reclaiming and growing it. Nurturing his broken pride. Restoring his birthright. What started as an innocent curiosity and need for reconciliation became an obsession with what she represented to him. She was his fantasy, and he would have her.
One night Sasuke stopped by after being gone for a couple of months. It was later than he normally visited, but seeing the sorry state he was in, she brought him inside and tended to his wounds.
“You don’t need to fuss. I’m fine.” He said, stoic as ever. She said nothing but continued to wrap the bandage around his torso. When she finished, she looked up at him to find him already staring, sharingan swirling. It was then she realized she had been kneeling between his legs.
“There, that should keep it from getting infected.” She said shakily, swallowing thickly. His hand moved under chin, raising her eyes to meet his again.
She sat there, looking up at him, waiting. She’d often fantasized about him, but refused to be another girl fawning over him. He starred in all of her dreams, using her to repopulate their clan. She tamped down her dirty thoughts, scolding herself for them.
After minutes of silence and staring into her eyes, he finally moved. He snaked his hand down from her chin and encircled her neck. He pulled her up until she was standing between his legs. He studied her face for only a second before pulling her into him, crashing their lips together.
He moved his lips against hers, setting a steady rhythm. His tongue pushed its way past her lips, dancing with hers. When he finally released her, she pulled away breathless. He stood and took her by the waist, tugging her towards him once more. He moved slowly, giving her time to pull away.
She gently placed her hands on his chest, heart racing. She melted into him, allowing him to lead this wherever he wanted to. The sleeve of her robe fell from her shoulder as he pulled back again. The tomoe in his eye danced as he stared at the bare skin of her shoulder.
He gently place his hand there, looking into her eyes for hesitation, yet all he found was desire. He gently tugged the ties of her robe, leaving it in place but open. Admiring her body, he trailed his fingers from her collar bone down to her navel. She softly grabbed his hand, loosely intertwining their fingers, and lead him to her room. The Uchiha crest on the back of her robe sent his mind reeling.
It was like looking at something completely and solely his. Flashes of her belly swollen by his child ran through his mind and he felt his skin heat. He’d never allowed himself to dream of a future, but seeing her splayed out so beautifully before him felt like fate.
He removed his own clothes and hovered above her. Though he was a man of few words, he needed to hear that she wanted this, wanted him. He’d toyed with the idea of her over the past few weeks, and he knew that this wouldn’t be a one time thing for him. “Don’t offer yourself to me unless you mean it. There is nothing beyond this but you wholly being mine unless we stop now. If that’s what you wish I’ll respect that, but there is no stopping for me if you don’t.” He rasped, on the brink of madness just from the sight of her.
A lump formed in her throat at his implication. She hardly knew this man, but being his was a welcome thought. She dipped her head, averting her gaze, but he was having none of that. He moved her chin gently, looking into her eyes once more.
“It feels like fate, being here. The sole surviving members of our clan. If you are my destiny then I welcome it.” She said, cheeks tinged pink but voice sure. She meant every word. The honesty shone in her eyes and told him everything he needed to know.
He dipped his head down to her neck and kissed a trail up to her jaw. His gentle kisses turned savage as he marked her neck, claiming her as his. Ecstasy poured through her veins as she realized what he was doing. She ran her hands up his back and anchored them in his hair. His lips once again found hers with an urgency like no other.
He moved his hand down her body, caressing every dip and curve along the way. His fingers found their way to the heat between her thighs. He slowly drew circles against her sensitive flesh, sending jolts of electricity through her entire body. She felt as though she was on fire. Crying out, she clung to his shoulders.
Hearing her pleasure only pushed him further over the edge, control slipping. Her soft moans drove him mad, and he knew he needed more. He moved his fingers at a slow steady pace, wringing pleasure from her with each pass. He entered a single finger into her core, using his thumb to continue circling her clit. He released a shaky breath before demanding her release, “You’re close I can feel it. Give in to me.”
With his words whispered against her ear, her legs shook in anticipation. She drifted over the edge and crashed into a wall of pleasure. The knot in her core unraveled and she cried out his name.
Satisfaction settled in his bones. His name, his woman, his clan. His. He was the reason for her desperate moans, attempting to contain the overwhelm from her pleasure. He couldn’t wait any longer. He had to have her, now.
He guided himself to her entrance, applying pressure, pushing through until he was seated fully within her. He grounded himself, grabbing her waist and stilling. He watched her face as she strained to take all of him. “You can take it, it’s your destiny.” He said confidently, using her words against him.
“Y-yes. I’m just so f-full.” she stammered out. He took in the pink tinge of her cheeks, the flush of her bare chest, and the way her eyes closed as she adjusted to him. She was beautiful wrapped around him like this. She was everything. He reached out, grabbing her throat and squeezing softly.
“Open your eyes. Watch me claim every inch of you, mind body and soul.” He spoke, voice husky with desire. She fluttered her eyes open and met his, the tomoe in her eye swirling. She never wanted to forget this. A thrill ran down her spine seeing his sharingan looking back at her. He began sliding out of her, treacherously slow, savoring her every reaction. He slammed back into her, causing a sharp cry to leave her lips.
He continued his agonizing pace, rapidly tightening the knot in her core once more. He could feel her gripping him tighter with every thrust. He dropped his gaze to where their bodies met and saw the imprint of himself pushing against her stomach. Pride welled in his chest, feeling as though he was marking her from the inside out. His.
He moved his hand to her stomach to feel his own movement there and almost finished from the implication. Her moans grew louder and he knew she needed release. “Look. Look at how I claim you, inside and out.” He said raggedly.
She looked down between their bodies and cried out again when she saw the imprint of him there. She tightened around him again, body begging for the release he could give her. “S-Sasuke, please.” She begged.
He quickened his pace, feeling his own release rapidly approaching, and moved his thumb to swirl around her clit. He pumped in and out of her, feeling her bare down on him as she finally found what she needed. She screamed his name as her pleasure slammed into her again.
Hearing his name fall from her lips repeatedly sent him tumbling into his own release. Hot ropes of his seed hit her deep in her womb. She knew she might get pregnant, but that was her goal. Looking up into his satisfied face, she knew it was his as well. Both still panting and reeling from their high, he settled on his elbow, leaning over her body. He rested his forehead on hers, looking down to where their bodies were still connected.
“You’re mine. All of you.” He whispered. He crashed his lips to hers again, moving his hips again. She felt him harden in her, never having pulled out. He was offering no reprieve, he wasn’t done with her yet.
“Again? Already?” She asked, surprise covering her face. “Don’t worry, you can take it.” He said with his head buried in her neck. Pleasure began seeping into her once more, and she knew this would be a very long night.
After all, they had a clan to repopulate.

ppl are literally just mad that sasuke had the gall to be a reactive genocide survivor, but y'all will never say it. he wasn't a perfect victim and that's the problem. y'all simply wanted him to be down with the fuckshit and that's it. y'all expected him to roll over and kiss ass. y'all wanted his trauma to affect him as minimally as possible. he could only be traumatised in an acceptable way. everytime i see someone saying he treated ppl badly or whatever the fuck y'all perceive his behaviour as im like...you're shocked the child who survived a literal massacre at the hands of his BROTHER is cold, untrusting, flighty and destructive? wowww 😭 like free my king all he ever did was yearn for a revolution & be a lil moody & bitchy (if that's what you wanna call it)

I genuinely can't believe when people say Sasuke was too edgy and mean. No. That boy should've been MUCH more mean and edgy. Him telling Sakura she's annoying is nothing, him calling Naruto an loser is also nothing. This boy had his whole clan, which means close AND extended family, killed in one night. By one person that he trusted the most. Already enough to be justified in literally anything you say. And then later on that same brother comes back and tortures you some more. And you end up in coma. You wake up, and your Sensei starts speaking some "revange isn't good" bullshit. Then later on in life, you find out that not only was massacre a government ordered genocide, but they also GROOMED your brother into doing it. And then used him as a scapegoat. So naturally you go and kill that guy who ordered genocide of your clan. You kill his ass, then your old teammates show up, chick that's saying she loves you tries to kill you. Your supposed best friend can't take a hint and leave you alone. Your Sensei is again taking bullshit about "going down the dark path".
And this is not mentioning all the other bullshit my boy had to go trough.
All of this combined, and it's unreasonable that he didn't have even more crash outs. After all this shit he should've been genuinely unhinged and high-key insane.

'Sasuke deserves to die in a ditch.' Actually, though?
Decided to make this its own post because truthfully I don't know the etiquette here, but someone posted something pretty laughably egregious in the 'Sasuke' tag (as far as character interpretations go) and I felt compelled to gather up some manga panels to try and figure out where they were coming from and if you could feasibly justify their take.
The initial assertion, from what I gather, is that Sasuke's supposed inaction towards Orochimaru's other prisoners/experiments is heinous and as a result has warped him into such an evil that even Itachi cannot/should not forgive him. I am summarizing, perhaps crudely, but the original post is not the most thought out concept lol. I did consider it, though... were we ever shown Sasuke participating or condoning Orochimaru's actions? Was Sasuke complicit and, if so, to what degree?
Now, I'll briefly caveat that I think it seems like the original post might have been more of a story request? Which, in that case, who am I really to judge what someone wants to write for their own fun/enjoyment? But taking it in good faith that that's all it is and the post wasn't actually bait (which I acknowledge I'm falling hook, line, and sinker for if it is lol), then that's still a pretty tall order for a story as it (imo) requires such a dramatic departure from the canon portrayals of multiple characters to make it work.
I mean, even the cognitive dissonance Itachi would have to employ in an act of ultimate hypocrisy to judge Sasuke's alleged inaction as any worse/less agreeable than his own active violence would be incredibly fascinating given he is the murderer of countless innocents, operated as a reliable agent in a terrorist organization for multiple years and faithfully did whatever it took to uphold the appearance of loyalty, and encouraged Sasuke to go to any length for enough power to defeat him/later be able to fend for himself post-assisted suicide.
But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's just check out some panels and reflect on what Sasuke was doing while he was under Orochimaru's control and see what we can extrapolate from there.
1.) We can start out easy with Sasuke's alleged interest/participation in Orochimaru's experiments to which we are blatantly shown that he actually has complete and utter disgust for Orochimaru's methods.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He is revolted by what Orochimaru does for his experiments, even (in the panels above) likening Orochimaru's cruelty to that of Itachi's, someone who (at this point in the story) Sasuke views as the ultimate evil.
The rest will be hosted under the cut because adding panels (and I apparently hit the limit of that) drags out the length of these posts to an absurd degree.
2.) Kishimoto makes a point of showing us that Sasuke has deliberately chosen not to kill or even give in to Orochimaru's cruelty during their time together, something Orochimaru even mocks him for.
Sasuke's sole goal at this point in the story is exclusively to kill Itachi so he can achieve justice for his family and bloodline. He even continues to reiterate this point post-Orochimaru's death (but pre-Itachi death/reveal of Konoha's atrocious betrayal of the Uchiha) to Team Hebi.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
3.) Sasuke outright states that he was only able to kill Orochimaru while he was weakened. He is also well aware that Orochimaru wishes to possess his body (ie. genetics) and, given that he is prepared to face Orochimaru at this exact, pivotal moment when he is most weakened/Sasuke is most guaranteed victory (ie. Sasuke is not taken off guard at all), I think you can make the argument that he was keenly preparing to attack/kill Orochimaru as soon as he was able. If he didn't do so earlier, then perhaps it stands to reason he didn't believe he was capable of succeeding at any other point.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4.) Sasuke certainly has some degree of freedom and maneuverability that other captives of Orochimaru do not, but he is definitely not an equal to Orochimaru and that power dynamic between them is reiterated frequently. While he is sometimes referred to with respect, he is also referred to as a pet/experiment. A gilded cage is still a cage. The power dynamic of Orochimaru as the master and Sasuke as his captive/future vessel/object of desire is notably and routinely emphasized.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
*Note Suigetsu's use of 'we' and 'us'. To me, this implies that Sasuke is viewed by other captives as 'one of them' and not someone operating alongside Orochimaru like, say, Kabuto and Karin. Also, I'm out of images, but there's a panel I had to delete for space which has Orochimaru referring to Team Taka + Sasuke as his 'superior lab rats' again emphasizing Sasuke's shared status.
5.) Speaking of Suigetsu (who we know was experimented upon), he appears to be quite familiar with Sasuke when Sasuke comes to free him. While we unfortunately don't get to see it, its obvious that a relationship of some degree has been formed between the two. Their familiarity with one another highlights that this is not the first time Suigetsu and Sasuke are meeting and from this we can (perhaps) infer that he and Sasuke bonded at an earlier point and, due to the lack of antagonism from Suigetsu towards Sasuke compared to his immediate dislike of Karin who he does state experimented on him, that Sasuke did not participate in his torture.
Keep in mind that, at this stage in the story, this is a hardened Sasuke who has fully embraced his role as the sole arbiter of justice that can do right by his family, but it's still Sasuke. This is still the same Sasuke who fed Naruto, violating Kakashi's rules, and risked never becoming a ninja. This is the same Sasuke who sacrificed his life for Naruto, who called Naruto and Sakura his precious people he wanted to protect, etc. This is the same Sasuke who a few chapters later goes out of his way to show great respect to the ninja cats and Nekobaa, thanking her for everything! Even if he may have been hardened, I'd argue we are almost always encouraged (as readers) to remember that Sasuke is fundamentally a good, kind child (like Naruto) that was horrifically tortured and manipulated by bad actors and the corrupt ninja system into embracing those more violent tendencies out of his deep love for others and a need for survival. Naruto, importantly, never lets this image of Sasuke fall from memory (even calling Sasuke out when Sasuke tries to fancy himself a villain) and, in my opinion, the reader would do well to remember who Sasuke really is as well.
And, in this vein, who is to say he never fed Suigetsu when Kabuto wasn't looking, igniting their bond? That he and Suigetsu didn't talk about their brothers? It's pure conjecture, but thoughts to consider that aren't the most braindead 'Sasuke is pure evil' nonsense you see out there lol.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
*Also, 'I knew you'd show up' can imply so much. Did Suigetsu know of Sasuke's plans to overtake Orochimaru? Why was he so sure Sasuke would come rescue him? Much to consider there.
6.) Outside of Suigetsu, let's take a moment to look at how other prisoners/captives view Sasuke. We are directly shown that they, in some form or another, view him as one of them. Again, I interpret this to have emerged from an understood kinship that informs Sasuke's status as 'Orochimaru's next vessel' as not inherently divorced from the idea of him being just as much a captive/victim as them.
Sure, he is afforded some privileges as we've already mentioned (being at Orochimaru's side and not in a cell, for example) but this does not negate the fact Orochimaru always intended to use him, just as he used every other prisoner/captive under his watch. Also, as far as these privileges go, I find it interesting that it's also implied Sasuke was constantly (or at least a majority of the time) accompanied/monitored by Orochimaru and Kabuto given that his mere presence without Orochimaru/Kabuto breathing down his neck is notable enough that multiple people comment on it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
*Note the use of 'chaperone' here, it's an interesting word choice.
7.) Now, let's discuss the curse mark which is the sole reason why Sasuke is with Orochimaru to begin with.
Orochimaru deliberately coveted, targeted, and groomed Sasuke as far back as the Chunin Exam arc so that he could harvest his genetics. He forcibly placed a curse mark (again, read: CURSE, this was not some fun little power-up, it retains extremely negative drawbacks) on the body of a 12-year-old genin who was taking a state-sponsored meat grinder-style exam and found himself up against one of the Legendary Sannin, someone he couldn't possibly hope to defeat.
And we know that the curse mark Sasuke never asked for includes the following:
It debilitates him/constantly erodes his body.
It could have immediately killed him (multiple characters familiar with the curse marks are shocked he survived and continues to survive).
It amplifies and inflames his hatred (we see Orochimaru taunting him and inflaming his survivor's guilt while he is knocked out, ie. utilizing his horrific trauma against him).
And, ultimately, it is implied it would have eventually always required Sasuke to seek Orochimaru out to survive it.
Additionally Orochimaru is frequently shown targeting vulnerable children just like Sasuke and manipulating them for his own gain. This is standard practice for him and as far as extremely vulnerable children go, there are hardly any better examples than Sasuke. There was always an inherent power imbalance shown in the relationships between him and the children he is manipulating. He handles them in a way that is expressly individualized to exert ultimate control over the relationship and exploit their vulnerabilities/trauma tenfold.
Tumblr media
8.) And, on top of the curse mark, Sasuke must contend with Itachi's conditioning of his psyche. At the ripe age of seven, Sasuke was actively encouraged by Itachi to give in to killing to try and strengthen his sharingan (ie. the infamous 'kill your best friend' directive). Importantly, Sasuke resisted this! Even though he had no reason not to follow the bloody path his brother laid for him, he refused to give into such cruelty. This is on top of the intense psychological torture and enormous weight that Sasuke had to bear in his quest for justice. Knowing you are the only survivor and no one else cares half as much as you do about avenging your annihilated family and culture is no small pressure to bear. To then actively choose to do it your way and stay true to yourself/values, is also commendable.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
9.) I saved this one for later on as it's pretty well known among fans already and so directly refutes OP's concept of Sasuke holding no care for the other captives around him. But Sasuke goes on to free Orochimaru's prisoners as soon as he can. He straight up does not leave them hanging lol.
Side note: I love these panels, I wish a lot more had been done with them. It was around this time in the manga I really wish it had been renamed Sasuke, because everything going on here was x10 more interesting than anything happening with the Konoha crowd lol.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
10.) Finally, as far as Sasuke goes, we have to acknowledge that Sasuke's ultimate goals always revolve around avenging the grave injustices done against those he loves/loved. Sasuke continually represents selfless love, he will sacrifice everything so his loved ones (his mother, father, brother, and clan) who have had all these wrongs done against them are given proper rest and justice.
He is deeply traumatized, he doesn't always fully know the entire story (as it's in the best interest of the bad actors around him -Itachi, Orochimaru, Obito- for him not to know everything/the entire truth), and he often struggles to express his thoughts/feelings in an adequate way that will afford him the help/answers he needs from others. So, Sasuke is not without his flaws/difficulties. But you'd have to be purposefully misinterpreting the text/his characterization to not see the good in him that Naruto, the main character, is loudly, constantly, directly shouting about at every chance he gets.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And let's end on the quick, again, laughable idea Itachi would ever 'put down' Sasuke. We have a couple of Itachi's to consider:
We have Itachi 0.0, a traumatized child who had far too much responsibility foisted upon him and who took Danzo's shit genocide deal that guaranteed ONLY Sasuke would be spared. At this stage (and again, we're talking a young, traumatized child soldier) Itachi would rather have his name besmirched for eternity and be the mass murderer to his own flesh and blood than ever put his baby brother in danger. The dilemma he was presented should also be coupled with the fact that Danzo is an incredibly manipulative, evil genocider who simply couldn't wait to mutilate some bodies/rob some graves for his own power/ambition while ruining countless lives (Itachi's included, and especially Sasuke's) as he knowingly shoved Itachi into a corner.
We have Itachi 1.0 that hoped traumatizing his brother and encouraging him to become as strong as possible (by any means possible) and avenge the clan/kill him so he could become this 'ultimate hero' to the village would lead his baby brother to theoretically (lifelong trauma notwithstanding) living a long, safe, productive life after he was gone.
We have Itachi 2.0 that wondered if Naruto might be able to help his (understandably) spiraling brother and was heartened when Naruto insisted he would never kill Sasuke and would always find another way - ie. reiterating the unconditional love Itachi has and always had for his baby brother. This, interestingly, resulted in Naruto being given Shisui's eye that would have forcibly brainwashed Sasuke into serving the state that sanctioned their clan's genocide, but let's ignore the horrible implications of that for a minute...........
And finally we have Itachi 3.0 who admits he was wrong to go about the early plans for Sasuke's life in the way that he did. He states, ultimately, he will love Sasuke no matter what. It's unconditional. He stops trying to forcibly alter his brother's lifepath and he states outright and blatantly that he will always love Sasuke, nothing will change that. His actions have always been influenced by his interpretation of love for Sasuke and that cannot be divorced (in good faith) from his character.
I'm being a bit facetious in some of these summarized points, but generally Itachi's stance on Sasuke's well-being never changes, he always loves Sasuke, only the way in which he offers guidance/expresses his love/thinks about what Sasuke's well-being looks like evolves throughout the story.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
*Apologies, I have no idea why the font is so atrocious on these panels lol, but it says "And not matter what you do from here on out, know this... I will love you always."
Idk man, whoever is writing this story OP is asking for, is going to have a crazy uphill battle trying to convince readers that Itachi would ever give up on his brother (that he... directly encouraged this type of behavior in...) when Itachi exists to support and love his brother, when Itachi has always done everything for Sasuke. The debate about whether those actions were in any way good or healthy is wholly separate, but the text outright emphasizes that Sasuke has Itachi's entire, unconditional support and love no matter what. I know some people are allergic to the concept of unconditional love for some reason, but this is a crucial, critical, overwhelmingly highlighted point in the manga and these two specific characters' respective arcs that are known and cherished by many, many people lol, so, I don't know how you renege on that...
But I'd love to see a writer try, I guess. Why not? If you can keep both Sasuke and Itachi in-character and manga accurate, I'd be very interested in seeing a Itachi that not only abandons his beloved brother he has done everything for but also tries to kill him. I definitely wouldn't know how to go about making that convincing given all the direct evidence to the contrary presented in the manga.
Now, the stuff we don't know about Suigetsu and Sasuke's time together or spin-offs that maybe explore a Sasuke that continues on his trajectory to support and lead the people the shinobi world has abandoned? Like the kekkei genkai users (much like himself) who were abused by many in the shinobi world and further victimized by Orochimaru's vile ambitions? I'd, personally, be really interested in reading a faithful exploration of that. There is a lot to explore with Sasuke's time with Orochimaru, but I'd recommend reviewing the actual manga if you're after a realistic/authentic portrayal of these characters in your work.

Sasuke you deserved better Man! I hate the fact that you ended up working for that fascist village which sanctioned the genocide of your clan. You and your family deserved justice. Now you are gonna die becaming a tree, you should've died in the end of shippuden. I say this with love you know bcoz burrito sasuke ain't real for me. Miss you my revolutionary icon
Noooo, my friend, you can rest assured I am ok, I am not working for that village and I am not dying in a tree. That was all a genjutsu I cast on them so they would freaking leave me alone. They are hallucinating that I serve them, while I am chilling with Taka, raising kitties and plotting the Revolution.
Have a great day and thank you for the kind message!
