"No. Absolutely not. You're both speaking nonsense and I'm the only one with common sense amongst us," he says. It's not sharp or biting but rather the words of a taunt, of defenses and emotions he isn't sure what to do with. It's how he's always spoken to them, even when things weren't fraught with confusion as they are now.

"And it's not rushing. It's refusing not to have answers. Not the same."

It's entirely the same but it's also just who Kaz is. He's never wanted to wait. He's never given things time. He's found solutions to problems and put plans into motion. Logically he ever knows how to set things into motion here. He's just not sure how to actually do it. Not for himself.

He falls quiet, considering their words. He wants to be able to say what they need, to try and give them all that they might want and he's not sure how to do it. Especially with those words from Inej, in her own tongue and then theirs.

"If I believed I had a heart, I would say the same," he finally murmurs. "I just have to try and rebuild it. Because you're both worth that."
