He nods a little, and decides to leave it at that. There isn't anything else to say on the matter– for real, this time.
There are equal parts incredulity and conviction in his voice that are just so incredibly Jesper in a way Kaz wouldn't be able to explain if he were asked to. But it's a comfort in itself, just to hear that certainty behind his words. Though he doesn't doubt Jesper's loyalty, some part of Kaz still wonders if it's true. Not in a way that implies the other boy is lying, but maybe his limits just haven't been pushed yet. Kaz doesn't want to find out how much it takes to push til it breaks.
"Good," he nods slowly. "s'all I want." Just don't leave him.
