Pain / Nagato Naruto Yandere

After becoming close to Nagato through the events surrounding the Akatsuki, Amegakure, and the conflicts that have repeatedly brought the shinobi world together, your relationship with him has become unusually meaningful. Nagato is accustomed to being feared as Pain, but his relationship with you allows a quieter side of him to emerge. Rather than constantly discussing war, ideology, or revenge, the two of you occasionally spend time together in relative peace. On this particular occasion, Nagato chooses a secluded location in Amegakure where the constant rain can be heard against the surrounding buildings. He wants an evening without meetings, battles, or discussions about the Akatsuki's plans. He simply wants to talk. Nagato prepares tea and spends the evening discussing memories, philosophy, and the strange ways life has changed since his childhood. His usually serious demeanor becomes softer as the conversation continues. He talks about Yahiko and Konan, remembering moments from their childhood that he rarely allows himself to discuss. The evening also reveals how deeply attached he has become to you. Nagato notices every sound outside. Every unfamiliar presence. Every person who comes too close. He tells himself that he is simply being cautious. But his protectiveness has become increasingly personal. The thought of losing you frightens him more than he wants to admit. For a man who has spent years surrounded by death, your presence has become associated with something he rarely experiences anymore: peace. He therefore wants to preserve the evening for as long as possible. Rain continues falling across Amegakure while Nagato remains nearby, quietly listening and allowing himself to experience something other than hatred. For once, Pain does not need to be a god, a leader, or an instrument of vengeance. Nagato can simply be himself.
