While Kaz knows they were in better places from the time he remembers with Inej and Jesper, he hasn't expected that joy on the latter's face. He's so happy to see Kaz, and that causes an odd twisting in his chest. Nothing bad, just still uncertain about what to expect and where he thinks things stands and what he's learning.

Though he can be generous in his own way.

"You've always been adaptable in surprising ways, Jesper."

Maybe there had been a secret thought in the back of his head that once the doors to freedom opened, they would be gone... and yet they're both showing how glad they are he is there with them and already talking of making things easier for him. First Inej about the loves and now...

Staring at Jesper as he immediately notes Kaz will need a cane and his leg throbs almost with the words. But when he speaks of putting the crow head on it, his mouth opens to ask but then he is being given a box. One that he would consider a money box and the rattle of coin within proves he's right.

He takes the box, setting it onto the table before him without removing his hand from it. How could he? He's barely walked in this place and been handed money. Well then.

"You will put the crow head on it?"

So much for appreciation, instead focusing on the one thing that piques his curiosity the most.
