He nodded once as he slipped inside properly, closing the window behind him and making sure that it was latched.
Silence was weird. Silence was unlike him... but at the moment silence was easier. Mostly because he didn't know what to say or how to start.
He talked for a living, he made hard choices for a living, so why was talking hard now? What, should he just blurt something out and hope for the best? No, that wouldn't be better. It would break the silence but he wasn't sure it would be better.
Thus, he finally turned, offering Tenzou a there and gone again smile and a nod before padding away from the window, going to settle himself at the man's table. He didn't want a couch, he didn't want to invite someone being cuddly, because he knew his odd mood wasn't liable to inspire a lack of questions.
He put his elbows on the table and leaned on them, his chin resting against his fist.
Finally, he figured out where to start, and his voice was rather quiet.
"It's very different, being Hokage to being a properly active shinobi. It's much more difficult, but they're all the same thing in the end, when it comes down to it."
