When he first came, it was like what you have with him now. Threats. Violence. ... all of it.
... but the closer I got to Itachi and the more I came to know him, and the more I came to know, the more I encouraged him to tell your older self the - ... well, to make up.
There was no Madara, no Akatsuki. No one dangerous from your world... nothing to worry about.
Itachi... made up his mind after Sasuke told him what he'd been through from ages thirteen to sixteen. The training he'd undergone to kill him. And what had... been done to him.
He told Sasuke what they needed to, and... some things he didn't know.
... it wasn't like when you were children, but... you know how Ed and I act around each other, right?
[A fleeting smile.]
It was... like that. You were... really close. You even shared a room.
[In fact they also slept in the same bed so Sasuke could help keep Itachi warm, but that might be too much to digest.]
