Jesper can tell whatever is going on is very important to Kaz and he's always been careful about keeping much of his thoughts and past a mystery. Jesper's an open book in comparison, and he's always been hungry for details. He noticed Kaz doesn't touch people and always wears his gloves, he's got an eye for those things, but thought maybe it was a physical manifestation of him wanting everyone to be at arm's length. Passing out is different though.
Jesper raises an eyebrow at the squeeze on his wrist so he sits down at the end of the bed, glancing over at Inej and then back to Kaz. He knows about the Queen's Lady plague, everyone who lives in Ketterdam does. It's something Colm brought up when Jesper moved, to watch out and come home if there was a whisper of that sickness again. And then. Jesper freezes. Jordie.
Who’s Jordie? Someone I trusted. Someone I didn’t want to lose.
His brother. Who he lost, obviously, considering. Jesper's eyes fix on Kaz and his heart beats faster. He reminds him of Jordie? Wow. Kaz had the plague but survived. That was very rare.
"You were what, ten at the time?" It was seven years ago. Insane.
