I think my favorite thing about kazper is just, like... the intense eye contact
Like
Gentlemen, there are other people in the room, stop eye fucking each other for two seconds

Bitches I just discovered that my two favourite Kaz pics to use for pfps are actually Kaz and Jesper pics with Jes cropped out
It's making me feel things
Like just look at them being all aesthetic and cool with their hats and flipped up collars in the mist
And gay
They're obviously being so fucking gay

You know I’ll let it slide eventually but I’m here to rant just a little more.
I will accept NOTHING but an aroace Tolya and the writers can fight me about it, erasing that is just beyond disrespectful and I will choose to interpret that little odd look as platonic admiration and nothing more, but!
If they wanted an unrequited love triangle for Kanej just to add a little more drama (as if those two needed it tbh) Jesper was right fucking there! Jesper with his gigantic crush on Kaz, with his unwavering loyalty to him even when he’s being treated rather cruelly by Kaz, and his feelings of inadequacy, of not being enough, and his misplaced sporadic jealousy of Inej that he then feels so guilty about because she’s his best friend but still he wishes Kaz would look at him the way he looks at her and treat him the way he treats her, and his little talk with Inej about how they both deserve better than Kaz but they still can’t help their feelings for him. How he slowly gets over his crush on Kaz by falling for Wylan, how Wylan sometimes worries that Jesper will never look at him the way he looks at Kaz, but Jesper feels so much more with him, how he learns what real love and admiration is like when he’s with Wylan until eventually his feelings for Kaz just cease to exist and he just sees him as Kaz always saw him. A brother.
Like we already had the perfect unrequited angsty love triangle in canon, they could’ve worked with that, there is absolutely zero need to force another one!

modern kazper ♡
plant dad Jesper (I will die on this hill)
fresh bouquet every sunday Kaz
subway commutes
afternoons in the park
which often leads to picnic dates
but not the aesthetic charcuterie board kind of picnic
I mean like the McDonald's hot cake platter kind of picnic, using grease soaked napkins and sitting in the grass, basking in the sun
they have a dog that Jesper will play frisbee with on these occasions
and Kaz will curl up in the shade of a tree and read or work on his laptop
Saturday morning street market dates
a shared apartment
abnormally high levels of sass
and even higher levels of love ♡

We as a society do not talk enough about Freddy Carter's acting in EP 2x05, specifically the scene after the tea in Bhez ju
There are a lot of subtle things that a lot of people probably wouldn't pick up on unless you've had a panic/anxiety attack that I really admire and appreciate
From the moment that scene starts he is looking down, avoiding looking directly at anyone else
He has that exhausted, glazed over, not entirely present look
When he speaks it's quiet and slow, completely absent of the usual bite of sarcasm or annoyance
He only looks up and regains more of his usual attitude when Jesper speaks to him
And that could be interpreted in a couple different ways
Until then it's been all business talk, the seven of them all discussing the job. And as someone who has had a panic attack on the job in front of people ... it leaves a deep shame and embarrassment especially when it effects or hinders the job. And Kaz is obviously feeling that
But in a group conversation it's easier for him to avoid being the center of attention, yes he's still mostly leading the conversation, but the focus of the group is fairly evenly distributed between everyone
But Jesper makes it personal, he singles out Kaz and makes a comment directly to him and only him. And not just any comment. "It's as if I know you"
Now you could interpret that as simply Kaz having attention put on him and thus putting his facade of strength back on.
It could even be a fear of being known, or jesper noticing that he's struggling ... noticing his weakness. Of needing to mask it, so he looks up, he makes eye contact, he plays the character of Dirtyhands the gang leader and shoves everything else down
But I like to think of it another way.
Jesper is one of, if not the oldest friend Kaz has, and one of the people he trusts most. And Jesper may not have been present or known of Kaz's panic attack in shu han ... but he was there in the carriage to Hellgate. And what did he do? He immediately tried to help, and he never questioned it, never pried or made a big deal about it. He saw Kaz in a weakened state, and proved that he could be trusted with it, that he would help and not use it against him.
So rather than a fear of being seen in this moment, I see it was a comfort in being seen. "it's as if I know you" Jes may not know why Kaz panicked, or anything about his past, but he knows he has a weakness, and he doesn't think any differently towards him because of it.
And more than just the words he says, it's the way he says them, it's that usual casual way that Jesper talks, it's his lighthearted banter. It's normal ... as if nothing had happened.
And that is, in my opinion, why Kaz reacts the way he does. Because Jesper is safe, and with just a simple comment he has shown that he doesn't think any less of Kaz, and not even just Kaz as a gang boss but him as a person.
Kaz makes eye contact with him, and regains more of his usual attitude and behaviors for the rest of the scene, and that is, in my opinion, because of Jesper. Not because he is trying to fake normalcy to avoid being seen, but because he has been seen, and accepted without question or negativity. Jes has taken away his embarrassment and shame in that moment, not all of it, of course. But enough to handle, enough to go back to the task at hand, to move on to the next thing instead of focusing on his failures
This was supposed to be a praise of Freddy Carter capturing that post panick attack hangover but the kazper brainrot took over whoopsie
But yeah
Shout out to Freddy Carter for that scene
