KK is kind of Itachi's favorite so far (besides Sasuke who is kind of special, obvs :T ). But she was the one who made him feel the most welcome at first, and she did it in a way that also gave him space to figure things out for himself. He tends to be kind of independent, as well as introverted, so if the team had been TOO attentive it might have made him more uncomfortable. He tends to find her very easy to relate to somehow, and generally easy to be around. Though he thinks she seems to take a lot on herself, which he respects but also thinks it's something that could be shared, since that's what teams are for, right (although he'll be inclined to do the same kind of thing sooner or later, so). But like he said...or, thought, I guess...in their thread today he trusts her the most at this point. In part because he's talked with her the most, but also because she seems smart, honest and dependable, all of which he appreciates.

Also, she gave him the idea for his name :'D
