Naruto: Itachi/Deidara set Alpha
Fandom: Naruto
Pairing: Itachi/Deidara
Theme set: Alpha
Rating: T
1. comfort
There is something in the way that Deidara enthusiastically explains away his wounds and how he's defeated the enemy that does more for Itachi than he thinks it does.
2. kiss
Rain steadily pours from the sky as the wind whips their drenched cloaks about and blows hair into their faces, but they're too lost in a kiss to notice.
3. soft
Itachi's skin has never been as soft as it is after Deidara has washed it.
4. pain
It's late at night when Itachi's impassive face gives way to a slight frown, his grip on the scratched Iwa hitae-ite turning his knuckles white.
5. potatoes
The mashed pototoes remind him of Deidara's thighs, soft and smooth and creamy.
6. rain
Kisame often takes walks in the rain, preferring the wet and sound of rain drops hitting the earth to the loud fights between his fellow Akatsuki back at the hideout, and he has almost ran into Deidara and Itachi more than once, simply standing in the rain in silence.
7. chocolate
Itachi has always been partial to chocolate, a rare treat as a missing-nin, but it isn't until Deidara shows him the true pleasure of the food that he can really appreciate it.
8. happiness
Whether the feeling in his chest whenever he is with Deidara is heartache or happiness, Itachi cannot tell.
9. telephone
Deidara is often tempted to call whatever inn Itachi is staying at until his mission is complete, even though he knows nobody will answer.
10. ears
Itachi finds it hard to suppress the hitch in his breath when Deidara sucks and nibbles in his ear in that strangely erotic way of his.
11. name
Deidara has never known there were so many different ways to gasp and cry and moan someone's name until he met Itachi.
12. sensual
He shouldn't be so easy to persuade back to bed, but the soft hands gliding over his too-eager body are more than he can take, so he pins his lover down and caves to his desires, putting years of training to the back of his mind.
13. death
Itachi is already dead to the outside world, and there is nothing Deidara can do but watch and wait.
14. sex
They've only been apart for a week, but that's more than enough reason for them to fuck like animals.
15. touch
They both they're not as drunk as they're pretending they are, but ignore it, because being intoxicated makes their touches alright.
16. weakness
Perhaps he shouldn't have responded so quickly, or not have said anything at all, but his weakness is out now and Deidara can't do anything to change it.
17. tears
He hasn't shed a tear since Sasori died, but there is something in the way that Itachi's corpse lies that makes him want to cry like a child.
18. speed
Time flies too quickly when they're together and it seems like it's only been a second before they're apart again, always putting duty before the other.
19. wind
Deidara thinks it is a lie when Itachi says flying on a giant clay bird is foolish and the wind in your hair is only a nuisance; Itachi thinks so too.
20. freedom
Itachi is glad Deidara can immerse himself in freedom, albeit only for as long as he can stay awake on his bird, because someone so juvenile and full of life shouldn't waste away in Akatsuki.
21. life
He's almost fully blind now, and knows he doedsn't have much time left to live, so he spends his days with Deidara.
22. jealousy
Tobi is a fool and will soon get himself killed, that Deidara is sure of; Kisame is something to be reckoned with, and deep down Deidara knows he can't replace the blue-skinned man.
23. hands
Deidara claims that his hand-mouths have a mind of their own, yet Itachi makes no move to stop them when they begin to move further down his pants.
24. taste
The tea at the inn Itachi and Kisame are staying that is clear and sharp and sweet and tastes almost like peaches, like Deidara.
25. devotion
Despite his wounds and bruises and blood stained clothing, the first thing Deidara says when he returns is a question: is Itachi there, will he see me, yeah?
26. forever
There's something in them that binds them together and keeps them from ever truly being seperated.
27. blood
He's lost far too much blood, more than he would have liked, yet his touch is surprisingly gentle when he wipes a tear from the other man's cheek.
28. sickness
Itachi has a sickness of the mind, something that can't be cured, but Deidara is enough to treat the symptoms.
29. melody
Deidara often hums a soft tune that brings Itachi back to the days of his childhood when he still clung to his mother, and it makes him wonder if he'll end up killing Deidara, too.
30. star
The stars in the sky are bright and twinkle like Deidara's eyes when he gets that idea.
31. home
Neither of them have a real home, but believe home is where the other is, where they can be together.
32. confusion
Tobi doesn't understand the excuse Deidara gives at night, but Kisame does and leaves Itachi well alone.
33. fear
It's not visible on his face, but Itachi is more frightened than he's ever been; the enemy's too strong for him, but with Deidara by his side they might make it out alive.
34. lightning/thunder
Itachi supposes the reason Deidara is so fascinated with thunder and lightning is because it reminds him of his exploding clay "art", but the real reason is much simpler.
35. bonds
He's cold and pushes all emotions as far back as he can, yet the bond between them exists and he's done nothing to break it because he knows it will be useless.
36. market
Kakuzu is too stingy, Hidan is too lavish, Tobi is clueless and Kisame would simply kill anyone there, so it is Itachi who goes to the market and buys food for them all, but it is Deidara who finds his favorite food stashed at the bottom of a bag.
37. technology
It wasn't too long ago that the hideout was outfitted with electricity, and now they had cable and a television; all Deidara did when the news was broken was grin and say it would keep the others occupied and give them more time to themselves.
38. gift
He's been needing new weapons for a while, but doesn't expect the roughly wrapped package thrust into his hands with nothing but "There, yeah," and figures that's just like him.
39. smile
Deidara knows nothing will ever get Itachi to smile; he's simply not the type; nevertheless, he tries his best.
40. innocence
He has far too much innocence for a ninja, and Itachi wonders if he can change that.
41. completion
He says that when the task is complete, they will be able to do as they wish; it's just that Deidara knows an impossible promise when he sees it.
42. clouds
Deidara points and says look, doesn't that cloud look like you, and Itachi huffs at his childishness.
43. sky
The sky is a bloody vermilion tainted with white and black that reminds Deidara all too much of a familiar pair of eyes that only makes him more homesick than he already is.
44. heaven
They don't believe in heaven, but think that if it exists then surely it must be just as they are now, lying under the stars on a balmy spring evening.
45. hell
It feels as if his head will split open at any minute, sparks dancing behind his eyes and the blindness truly beginning to make itself known, and all Itachi can hope for is for Deidara to show up.
46. sun
Itachi's world is dark and Deidara is like the sun, bringing light and life to everything around it.
47. moon
He's heard tell of the Uchiha's terrifying technique named after the moon goddess, and was glad they weren't enemies.
48. waves
Leader had decided to take them on a vacation of sorts, causing Deidara to bound about the hideout for days, spastically cheering; now he had managed to drag Itachi out to the ocean with him, and he grabbed the other's hands and pulled him closer for a kiss.
49. hair
Though he is a neat freak, Itachi doesn't bother grooming his hair, and it's full of snarls and split ends that would take forever to sort out; Deidara volunteers to fix it and is surprised when his offer is accepted.
50. supernova
Deidara's death was like a supernova, just the way he'd wanted it: he went out with his art, taking the enemy down with him, and Itachi wished he could have been there to appreciate Deidara's last piece of artwork.

Any feedback is love. And I think I used my semi-colons wrong in several places.
