[ Cas listens to the story, glancing between Nadine and Jaskier on the stage and trying to imagine the scene. It isn’t difficult, Jaskier’s personable and assertive, it isn’t a stretch to believe he’d show up uninvited for a whimsical serenading. He is a troubadour.
Was it persistence alone, or charm? Perhaps the key lies in what it is that keeps the emotion going after the song ends. ]
I see. [ sort of. Not really. A little? ] So it was his commitment to romantic overtures that solidified your interest in him as a suitable partner?
[ spoken in the tone of one who is taking detailed mental notes. He’s trying to learn (he’s always trying to learn) how these relationships evolve, what the spark that starts them is, how one knows when it’s gone beyond a close, platonic bond.
The beginning of Nadine’s story sounds innocent enough, it could’ve been the start of any friendship, so it was Jaskier who took the step to suggest a more romantic relationship. The shift was in the dramatic act of wooing by Jaskier, and Nadine’s eventual acceptance. Sure, makes sense. Good job, Jaskier. ]
Somewhat similar to Birds-of-Paradise performing intricate mating dances for females to display vitality and virility.
[ Cas does not at all mean to offend, sometimes words just come out of his face and he’s oblivious to how inappropriate they may be for the situation. He nods resolutely, confident he gets it now (he does not get it). ]
