Ghosts of the Storm: Backstory. P.2
Kaz asks Nina not to tell anyone about Jordie. Nina continues to observe the brothers' interaction out of the corner of her eye. Kaz tries to walk around the room so as not to walk through Jordie. In crowded places, Jordie clings to Kaz's shoulders. When Kaz is thinking about something, he doesn't just look into the void, he looks at Jordie, who only tilts his head to the side, maintaining eye contact, as if they communicate telepathically. Kaz and Jordie have the same habits and movements, as if they are parodying each other. Jordie tries not to stray far from Kaz, but during jobs he keeps his distance so as not to distract his brother. Sometimes Jordie disappears from her sight for a while, and then Kaz gives them information that he could not have possibly find out. (she no longer wonders why people think he's a monster)
After a couple of weeks of observations, Nina takes Kaz aside from the others.
Nina: Does he always have that expression?
Kaz looks at Jordie, who tilts his head: Almost always, I think. He was more sociable when he was alive.
He doesn't answer any more questions, but Nina will have to witness the change of emotions on the ghost's face in a few days when Kaz gets shot in the stomach during another dubious job. She doesn't want to witness this all-encompassing horror anymore.
