It was inevitable that their relationship would become known. Yennefer may be good at pretending, but he really isn't, and there is no one with a set of eyes that could see the way he looks at her as anything other than love. It's been that way since they were children, it will never stop. After the kidnapping it seemed stupid to try otherwise, and yes, they are both strong mages who have made good connections and positions at Thorne. Her close to the queen, but him with the other mages, and Ambrose seems to be fine with him.
They could be seen as a power couple in Thorne, something when he was young he thought he wanted for them, but it wasn't meant to be. It works for them now, because they work as a unit. They've reached a point where Yennefer could reach out and he would already be handing her something she needed, or she wouldn't have to ask for his Chaos, it's instinctive, their partnership.
"I'm saying that Castiel, as an angel, is more powerful than a witcher. Geralt could have tried his best and still been outmatched." Sometimes people are just stronger. They can't always be the strongest, the best. Geralt could have been outclassed by Castiel in that moment. "But ... keeping him alive after is a surprise, yes."
It's one thing if Castiel kept him from killing Dean, if he made it that far with Ciri to the Singularity? And he clearly knew what she could do? Yes, that sounds like a hell of a risk to take. Not to mention that Castiel at the least probably knows now and that girl Jo, if they helped find Dean and Ciri and cure him. That's far too many people aware that bringing her to the Singularity would do anything.
"Geralt would not keep him alive if Ciri didn't want him to. Her opinion would matter." If Ciri told him she was unsafe and Dean was a threat, he probably would kill the man regardless of his personal feelings. That feels the most logical.
Sometimes Istredd is reminded all too well of the girl who sat here with him decades ago. He reaches down to take her fidgeting hands and brings them to his mouth to kiss, not unlike exactly as he did sometimes when they'd meet. "What did you do?" And he goes right to that. See, if Geralt did something, Yennefer wouldn't be acting this way, she'd be furious, she'd be spiteful or living off her righteousness.
This has to have been her mistake. She feels guilty about it, or wrong somehow, and he knows her.
