You know, I've been asked a time or two while I've been around if the "rumors" are true and of course, I tell them yes.
[ Something that no doubt Inej would get exasperated with, she's sure. But she sees the point to them and it amuses her just as much, if she's honest. ]
You know I keep an ear out for rumors about you, too. If any I come across are worth hearing, I’ll send them your way. Otherwise I’ll just obfuscate or endorse them on your behalf.
I knew I could count on you, Kaz and it's appreciated. I definitely want to know about the more ridiculous rumors that circulate. They amuse me the most.
They always upset Inej when she hears people talking about me like that. Being a monster, demon, or gutter trash canal rat. And when I talk about myself like that even in boastful teasing.
This is precisely why I laugh at the majority of rumors that come my way. Most tend to work in my favor or ones that I can skew to my advantage.
She is good at that. If she wasn't on some grand adventure, I'd put her in touch with Adonis if only because he enjoys knives and swords and could use some additional skills/training.

I can see Inej being upset by it - from others saying it and maybe especially when you say it about yourself.

It's good that she left. She's better than this life.

She'll be back.
[ At least her gut told her so. ]

She would, if any of her friends were in trouble. As any of us would. I don’t doubt that.
... actually, perhaps we shouldn't encourage our best friends with sharp dispositions and better morals than us to converge.

I can only imagine the shit-talking that would happen between them. Mostly about us.
