[ Geralt is not certain, exactly, what it will mean to Jaskier when he says it. Maybe nothing. Jaskier knows him well, knows he is not a man who keeps company with those he doesn’t truly care for. He only says it because…he wants to. Because Jaskier has stayed by his side when he had no reason to, after what transpired between them on the mountain. And he’s not certain he can say he’s ever had someone refuse so staunchly to leave him in the face of all that he is. All he has done.
Or maybe he’s just had that much to drink.
He looks down at the water as Jaskier bumps against his shoulder. Geralt does not lean back, but his body remains relaxed. It’s a warm night. He drinks the rest of the wine and lets the breeze ruffle his hair. If he’s indulging in—this. So be it. There’s nothing in the way except a little alcohol and he knows, here, with Jaskier—he knows that unlike so many other places in his life (unlike with Yennefer), he will not find regrets waiting for him in the morning. ]
That implies you find me charming when horses are not involved.
