"I'm sure you have lots of memories to share, with all those strange powers that you... What did you call yourself, again? Shin..."

"Shinobi..." Itachi repeated.

"Yes, all the strange powers you shinobi have. Lots of interesting memories, yes, yes. You're making them right now, even. Who's to say one day, you won't be telling some young red-headed whippersnapper about that one time you and your late husband sat out by the shrine rocks and painted, and he was so critical, that he lit the canvas on fire with his eyes right then and there. Oh my goodness, what a tale that'll be one day."

I was hard to argue the fact that Karin was probably going to outlive Itachi. But Itachi did find it strange to think of himself as anyone's late husband.

"Yes, yes. Every day has a story. Every object has a memory. That's life, dear."
