50k comments whoaaaa! Congrats! So... I feel a little sheepish having to ask, but I'm so very curious and don't have the time to dig through camp for relevant threads.

What exactly is the current status of the relationship between Itachi and Neji? All I know from my on-and-off fail-stalking is that they broke up some time back, and there were some complications with Raphael (Itachi made out with him..?) and with Shikamaru (I kind of remember a thread where Shika punched Itachi..?)and there's been a lot of awkward miscommunication happening.

Halp please? ^^;;;

I don't mind asking! It wouldn't be an easy thing to follow even if you have more time and attention, honestly. I'm starting to feel like I ought to essay about it, but I'm not even really sure how that would go.

I wish I logged my threads now, but I am too unfortunately lazy.

Anyway, from Neji's side, I would say that he's not really sure what their current status is either. They're not really friends, and Itachi's hurt him a great deal, especially by leaving the way he did when he feels like he never really tried to fix their (committed, romantic) relationship after he asked Neji to take him back earlier this year. At the same time, he's still in love with Itachi and attracted to Itachi. And he cares about him, which might be the most important part of that, because it makes it very difficult to push him out of his life entirely. Neji's asked Itachi to go with him if they have vacation outside of camp this year, and is hoping they can sort things out then, at least a little bit. They have a thread here where they're talking about ( ... )

Hatter possessed Shikamaru because Shika tried bargaining with hir and got in over his head. |D

Raphael partly cleansed him, but couldn't entirely, so Hatter still has a degree of control over him. Angels were pissed. Hatter was amused.

Nothing too permanent. There is a post in Mika's journal here where most of the fallout went down.

Saro covered most everything, I think. Over the course of last year Itachi developed some feelings for Raphael that he didn't deal with well (or at all) and it complicated things. From Itachi's perspective he did try to fix things with Neji but couldn't quite figure out the right way to do it because he is not quite equipped to deal with relationship problems. Considering his life prior to camp it is just not something he ever thought he would have to deal with. In the end, it seemed like things were just getting worse and worse as far as their communication problems go. And he eventually realized he needed to figure out his own feelings, and by then he felt a break up/separation would be the best course of action because it seemed like the two of them just kept getting more and more unhappy with things. Which also wasn't helping ( ... )

Thanks so much for replying to my question! XD Aww poor Itachi. Bet they never covered Relationship Troubles 101 in ninja school. I didn't know Sasuke actually confronted him about Madara's story (and CRIED?! I'm going to have to scour the threads in January for that XD)
