Part of Kakashi knew he should keep up the conversation focused on the more serious aspect of things, such as faith in each other, and the workings of the Institute. But part of Kakashi was an Icha Icha fan to an extreme degree, and that part pushed its way to the forefront when Jiraiya mentioned that things were going to be a little different. It could either be very good, or very bad, depending on just what the man decided to try for.
"Different?" Still, it was a fine line to tread; Kakashi hadn't finished the final chapter of the last book. He didn't want to have too much told to him about one that wasn't even written yet.
Despite the lingering threat of being spoiled, however, Kakashi had to poke a bit of fun at the sennin. He found it was something akin to a much older Naruto, in the sense that Jiraiya had suddenly become quite defensive. "Tsunade-sama might not appreciate hearing that. Not that she wouldn't punch you in your face anyway." Kakashi quite clearly remembered Jiraiya guessing the woman's breast size, after all, just the least of many things that their Hokage used as reason to punish Jiraiya.
It was clear by this point that the sannin did indeed like Renamon. Even without what he observed, the grin he gave the woman from across the room was something like a neon sign pointing toward that conclusion. Much of his own expression hidden behind his mask, Kakashi smiled sweetly in reply to the irritated look he received. "Ah, I see. So deep respect is the extent of what you feel for her. I'll remember that."
