Description Have you ever wondered, what was their meeting like - after all those years? Did Orochimaru, having met with the Akatsuke leaders, remember three Ame kids he suggested to kill? I am sure that THEY did remember him.

How did they feel working with him?
Did Jiraiya during his life with them tell them stories about his teammates - including Orochimaru?
Did Madara tell Nagato to accept Orochimaru? (And did Orochimaru, being experienced in working with Hashirama's DNA, actually started building white Zetsu's army for Madara?)
That's a whole bunch of questions indeed!

Done for the *fidjera 's contest -

Naruto Contest!EDIT: 30.IV Ok, I give you one more week to finish your drawings. The theme: Interactions between OtoGakure and Akatsuki Deadline: 07 V 2012 Rules are simple: draw one drawing where is at least one member of Akatsuki and one ninja from Orochimaru's village (of course you could draw 1+2, 2+2 and more characters).

Very interesting concept and questions. I would like to see such a scene in the manga or anime.

And I always love the details and shadows you make with your watercolors.

All the questions that have been pecking away in my head for some time now. Your depiction of the meeting is truly wonderful here: the perspective (I especially enjoy the pillars and the arch of the window with the rain pouring over it), the lighting (have you really done this in watercolours? woah... O_o) the characterisation (Nagato's usual blank and Konan's slightly defiant face)-- and, personally, seeing Orochimaru in his Jounin outfit is always a plus.

Thank you very much
Yes, this is watercolour (aquarelle with a touch of gouache) with brightness/contrast correction on the computer after scanning.

I think they were simply pragmatic enough to recognize his value, even remembering that suggestion.

Umaken In reply to Q99 [2012-05-04 08:16:01 +0000 UTC]

Well, yes - this could be the only reason for anyone accepted to Akatsuki - usefulness
But for me it is still interesting what they really felt about it

Q99 In reply to Umaken [2012-05-04 08:22:33 +0000 UTC]

I can see them talking it over- "He's useful, but do we really want to use him?"

"Like you say Konan, useful. We can't afford to be picky."

Etc. etc..
