It's a mesmerising sight to see a perfectly focused Madara in the quiet of a clear field near the vast forests of wild birds and beasts. His sharingan watches the falcon as it quickly gains altitude and dives with incredible speed to deliver one precise strike and bring down its prey.

The man does not hide a genuine smile as the falcon, after dropping its prey to the ground, obediently lands on his forearm, protected by the thick fabric of a special glove. He gently caresses the bird's beak with the back of his index finger, treating it as if it were his own child rather than a dangerous predator capable of pecking out the eyes of both of them.

"He's very smart. And very loyal. These birds sometimes seem smarter than humans to me. But you needn't fear the sharp beak and talons, he's docile if I say so," your husband smirks, gesturing you over to him. "Stroke the feathers on his head with your finger, just gently."

Gently Madara places his free hand on your lower back, nudging you closer and as if to say, "Don't be afraid." The man backs up his encouragement with a kiss on your temple, watching you carefully as you fiddle with his favourite falcon. At such moments, he looks genuinely happy.
