Summary
"And now Kaz was missing, and it was completely reasonable to say it was Jesper's fault. For Ghezen’s sake, he had all but told Matthias to drop it. To let it whatever it was go and give their boss space. At the time, it had seemed best. Every time Jesper thought he had seen a bit of something more from Kaz, a genuine smile that lit up his eyes and made him look real, those jaws would snap shut and Kaz would be unreachable again. It was like Brekker was one of those damned hermit crabs that wandered up and down the docks, determined to tuck themselves in their hard shells at the first sign of someone getting close. Jesper didn’t want to lose the bit of Kaz they had coaxed out so far, not when it felt like such a gift to have it. He had wanted to stop pestering and let Kaz come to them instead, and because of that he may have signed the poor guy’s death warrant."
(Or, the one where Inej Ghafa finally holds Kaz's hand)
