“Things are… different here, but it isn’t all bad,” she says with a slight nod and a tiny smile. She rather likes the new parts of himself that Kaz has been discovering since coming here.

At those words, she glances back up at him, a curious glint in her eyes as she tries to untangle them, find some deeper meaning or reason for it. But she doesn’t find anything. It’s just… a sort of acceptance. And she smiles, that tiny twitch of lips that’s barely there but still so powerful all the same. “Maybe…” she’ll think on it, at least. Pray about it, perhaps.

“Now, that sounds like you,” she says with a soft smirk. “Kaz Brekker, ever the opportunist.”

"I have yet to call it bad since those first days when I was kidnapped," he points out, because it's the truth. He's tried since he came there to find his place and he can't deny that there are bonuses here. If he had his fortune.

He'd worked damn hard for that, after all.

That he wants her to explore this magic is nothing he's hiding, but it can be as much for herself as it is fore them as a group. Who they've been together for so long.

He snorts, rolling his eyes though he's trying not to show he's amused by that. "I thought you all thought I could be someone other than myself.

She hums softly and nods. It's true. He has long-since stopped completely hating it here. "Can you believe it's almost been a year already?" She'll be quickly approaching two herself when The Dimming begins.

"I never said you shouldn't be yourself," she points out, tilting her head into her hand. "I said you could be something besides what the Barrel made you." she smiles, a tiny, soft thing, "Subtle but distinct difference."
