Zetsu had hardly cared about the refusal to go out in the rain; it wasn't like they were in a rush to do anything, or had a timetable of any sort to work with. He would have been fine with it, personally--what plant minded getting watered?--but even after working solo for so long, didn't find it much of a problem to humor his new companion. Besides, Itachi definitely wouldn't have pulled the drowned rat look, and being wet probably interfered with producing fire jutsus, though he wouldn't guess exactly how. The weather would suit Itachi much better now, though; the sun was out and shining, drenching everyone with sunlight and heat equally as intense as the squall of rain had been earlier, the very heat causing the occasional puff of steam to curl up from the puddles that still littered the streets.

Zetsu wasn't particularly cheerful, himself--he was passively content, though, strolling with his hands buried in his sleeves, leaves outstretched and glistening in the harsh light as he drew in the sunshine and moisture in the air. He glanced down at Itachi's question, looking thoughtful for a moment, and in the end just shrugged his bare shoulders. "At the moment, we have no mission, my effort to locate the other Akatsuki--or your brother, or any other shinobi--has been unsuccessful, and our intelligence on this town is incomplete. So until we come across anything that changes our situation somehow, we have no plan. Unless you have suggestions." He raised an eyebrow questioningly toward Itachi; the plant-nin was making an effort to retrain himself to think of being part of a team, rather than traveling alone, and including Itachi in decisions.

Itachi listened and nodded. Zetsu was right. With their search attempt having fallen through, they were left without much of anything to do. Itachi didn't like it. Having an over-abundance of free time was likely to make him lax, slow to react. He was going to have to be sure that didn't happen. In the mean time...

"Maybe we should work on remedying part of that," he suggested. He had an idea in mind, though it really did go against a lot of his nature. "We could talk to some of the local folk, build up an information network within these... domes. It might be that the other Akatsuki, and my brother, are hesitant about coming forward in such... public means. There is still a chance that they could be here, and we wouldn't know."
