“Clearly,” she chuckles lightly. She doesn’t know Julie well, beyond that she’s close to Nadine and she’s a friend of Jesper’s, but that’s enough for her.

She nods slowly in her agreement, “Absolutely… he’s much more stubborn in his ways than either of us could dream to be,” she scoffs softly, shaking her head. Kaz is just as adaptable as anyone, in broadstrokes. It will be the smaller, daily things that he gets huffy about.

“Those are two of his favorite things,” she says on a laugh.

"I have told people about him over the months, but I don't think I really got a chance to warn them about it."

That is because Jesper genuinely thought he'd never see him again at this point. He's not really one of those people who thinks about going home. Julie told him awhile ago that she thought it would be dangerous with the Singularity, and beyond that, they don't even have proof it works. They could all be 'going back' to nothingness, to death. And he likes being alive. It's a complicated situation.

While he loves Kaz a great deal, warn is absolutely the right word. Inej and Jesper are generally very likable people, if he does say so himself. She is more reserved than Jesper is, although everyone is comparatively, but they are positive people who purposely make connections. Kaz is more difficult, but he can be charming. Maybe. Jesper hasn't seen much proof of that, but it must be true.

"In a way we do have a little gang here, the Summoned gang. But he can't really run it." Sam runs it. Probably.

“No amount of explaining him could warn them for the real thing,” she muses delightedly. “One must experience Kaz Brekker to truly understand all the intricacies of him.”

She lets out a laugh at that comment, “All Saints, Jesper, can you imagine him trying?” she certainly can, and it wouldn't go as planned, of that at least, she is certain.

"Exactly. I don't know, though, he hasn't started any fights yet, he's doing fine." It isn't that Jesper expected him to make any enemies, although Kaz is very good at that, but he has a strong personality and so do a lot of people around here. Perhaps the truth is he's just very hopeful everyone will get along and be friends, since he is a diplomatic type at heart.

"I can, and I can imagine the look on Geralt's face when he does. Or Dean's." Sam would at least be kind about it.

“So far,” she nods her agreement. But time and annoyances would build and grate and something would happen eventually. It’s just a matter of how much time it might take to get there. Kaz has patience in spades.

She sobers her laughter a moment later, regaining her composure and taking a moment. “You think… you think Kaz’ll do okay here? In the long haul?” The pair of them had adjusted just fine, but they’re very different types of people from their leader. Jesper knows him as well as anyone.
