[ Kaz wants to hug her. It's one of the first things that comes to mind as she steps closer, because he knows if it was any of the others, anyone else in their strange, little family they'd be wrapped around one another already. It's been a few steps forward and then a few back, and Kaz knows his own limits are not where either of them would like them to be. It makes him feel...
Well, nothing that he wants to admit to.
Shaking his head, he glances away, looking around the harbour absently, trying to maintain that air of unconcern as he listens to her. He hears every single word she says, of course, despite how it might appear, and eventually his dark eyes flick back to her and drinks her in all over again.
It feels as though a weight has been lifted off his chest. ]
It was a happy coincidence.
[ He's happy to be here.
Kaz lifts his head to look at the ship, some of the crew already unloading things here and there, probably checking inventory and seeing what they'll need to restock for their next journey, whenever that'll be.
If she looks closely, she'll see the almost there twitch of a smile. The reserved soft things that are just for her, and no one else. ]
Do you need hands to carry things? I can make arrangements.
