[Minato stares at Kaz silently, expression stoic even as he watches his friend's emotions leap like the sparks of a flame- just how long had he kept his emotions hidden was hard to say, but if he had to make a guess it was unlikely that Kaz had trusted many people with this secret, if at all.
He makes no motion to move, eyes dull even fixated on Kaz when he's called a weirdo, when he's said to not care, asked about why he doesn't care- he neither confirms nor denies it, but it should be clear from how little he says until Kaz calms down that he doesn't think anything of Kaz being a demon.
One, two, three...Minato counts the breaths silently now recognizing that it was how Kaz coped with his emotions before he speaks up again.] Because you're my friend. ...And I know how it feels like to be thought of as being different. [No one had ever spoken ill of him out loud while he was within earshot, but it's hard to forget the whispers he hears when people think he's not listening. Bad luck, unfortunate and so on...there might be many things Minato's quiet about and many more he wouldn't judge, but he can't say he was happy being called such names.]
