[ Geralt glances sidelong at Jaskier. He huffs. In all honesty, Geralt only thinks of their first meeting on rare occasions. (Jaskier had been young, bright-eyed, and over the years, not one bit of that's changed.) Not that it isn't of any significance; it's only that it's not ever been any one thing with Jaskier, any one point where Jaskier migrated from annoying little shit to friend.
And back to a fucking nuisance. He makes a face, swatting Jaskier's hand away. ] Fuck off.
[ He sighs. Thrice as annoying is more like it. And yet, he's still here, lingering at Jaskier's bedside when Jaskier is, for the most part, doing all right and sure as hell hasn't got a need for someone keeping an eye on him. For which he's glad. He isn't sure what he'd have done if—
Something more, something worse, had happened. If he'd been even further out in the desert, if Ciri hadn't found him in time.
He lets the silence lapse between them, or otherwise lets Jaskier fill it as the bard wishes without much commentary on his part. Only after a few minutes does he speak up again, with one thing he'd meant to tell Jaskier and hadn't had the chance to. ]
I spoke to someone who developed magic like yours. An ability out of nowhere, after leaving Thorne.
