This is such a great fic. The pacing is awesome, the interactions are to die for, and the suspense is killing me. (I noticed a suspicious lack of mentions of Kabuto so far. ;) )
The shifts in PoVs are great - I adored the first part of the first chapter, how the interrogations went on, Ibiki and Anko's different ways of reacting to each of Team Taka (Anko's easy manner with Suigetsu was so, so great), and each of Tsunade's tests with Taka. And their interactions, <3. That Juugo+Karin scene, how she manages to get him to stay because she argues Sasuke might need him and how it echoes with Ibiki's thoughts about her easily dropping loyalties in the first chapter.
I loved all the details, Sakura telling Tsunade about not being to talk with Sasuke, how being a medic-nin ages you earlier than most specialties, "Welcome to Leaf", Anko's thoughts about Orochimaru and admiring him she was younger and all of the things she just says about her own experience with him, creating a rapport out of her vulnerabilities. Naruto being the best choice to bring Sasuke out of his Sound-flashback, the look of triumph in his eyes, Tsunade knowing Naruto is going to lie like a lying thing about Sasuke's state and not even making an issue out of it (it's not an issue until it becomes an issue). Tsunade is just great in this fic - well, she always is, but here she really gets the chance to shine, as one of the main perspective characters and the one who's making the detective work.
It's probably bad etiquette to review older wips, but I just wanted to let you know I had an awesome time reading this, even if you never intend to write another line. Awesome, awesome fic.
