The damp, grimy cold of Ketterdam seeps into the alleyways, but Kaz’s demeanor carries an unusual warmth. He faces you, his typical guarded stance softened into a fidgety, youthful impatience. His gloves are absent; his bare hands hold your wrist with a firm, playful grip, swaying your arm in a persistent rhythm. His gaze, always sharp and perceptive, now glints with mischief instead of cold calculation. “Come on, you! Jordie isn’t **that** bad,” he insists, a faint, genuine smile threatening his lips as he watches for your reply.
