Schrodinger's incest au where tobirama is revealed to have the sharingan mid-battle with the uchiha, so there's no hiding it, and immediately sparks a massive issue along with an uneasy truce- the issue being how did an uchiha end up part of the senju main family?
did his mom deliberately seduce an uchiha to commit bloodline theft, which is what the uchiha elders believe? or, as the senju elders argue, did an uchiha rape his mother? and, this is pretty major, which Uchiha is his fucking dad?
regardless, hashirama and madara both come down on the gentler side of both those arguments, which is that regardless of how it happened tobirama is a senju-uchiha kid and he can't be held responsible for either of his presumed parents actions. So there's a very uneasy peace but it is happening, and Tobirama is spending a lot of time with the Uchiha while they try to figure everything out (under constant surveillance of course). and two things happen
Madara is slowly convinced that Tobirama is actually his half-brother. Some of his behaviors remind him immensely of his now-dead siblings and parts of his appearance remind him of Tajima, and, ultimately, he wants it to be true. He wants another little brother. His memories of his dad are already kind of fucked from Tajima prolonging the war and forcing the end of his friendship and refusing peace treaties when Hashirama took over the Senju, so he's okay besmirching his memory more if it means he gets to have a new little brother out of it. He wants the peace to hold and Tobirama as a connection between him and Hashirama and- this war stole his other siblings from him. It's kind of like the universe giving him something to make up for it?
2. Izuna is convinced tobirama is the product of one of the low rank civilian merchants who barely counts as an uchiha. and tobirama's mom probably did this on purpose in the hopes of bloodline theft, and she just got very lucky that it actually worked out. He still hero-worships his dad and would be deeply devastated if it turned out his dad had cheated, so he absolutely REFUSES to believe it.
and then. it also becomes a matter of necessity to him because he's falling in love with tobirama now that they're spending a bunch of time together outside of battle, outside the concept of enemies. and thrice-removed cousins getting married is the norm to the uchiha but half brothers would be super gross even to them. So he can't be tajima's son too.
so at a certain point it turns into like
madara, kind of crazy from grief: he's totally our brother because sometimes he sneezes exactly like my dead little brother did and if anyone says hes not im going to explode
izuna, very horny: he's NOT our brother he's nothing like ANY of our brothers, and he clearly mostly takes after his senju mom and NOBODY MAKE THIS WEIRD FOR ME
tobirama, meanwhile, is struggling alone and mostly internally with the massive changes to his self-identity. could someone please pause in fighting over who his dad is and help him out?
