Kisame didn't say anything more than that until they'd gotten within easy reach of the suggested restaurant. It did smell delicious. If nothing else, he was going to enjoy the meal. He made a careful note of the tea house too; he would be sure to visit.
But he couldn't leave it unsaid. Perhaps it might prompt something interesting. "I saw no poor reactions to you either. It must be true then, what they whisper about Konoha's clans."
It was no secret how close Kiri had come, more than once, to warring on its own clans. With all the clan members that had defected over the years, Kisame wouldn't be surprised if the stories were at least accurate about the intensity, if not smaller details. Even now, the lies and manipulations that kept the peace were strained, and Kisame didn't bother trying to disguise the want in his voice. It was almost jealousy.
