Yes, that is an unfortunate truth. However, this is a special occasion. [It's not exactly a banquet or anything, but it's -- it's Geralt's return, and the three of them together, and a moment of brevity in a world that continues to march on towards something they don't understand.
Hence. It is special.
Jaskier gives Ciri a broad grin when he spots her, having completed the look with a touch of color in her cheeks and lips, and dark lined eyes. A perfect match with the braid he left her with, and now two of them match.
He certainly does not intend to let Geralt leave undecorated.]
Ciri, my girl, you look dashing! Doesn't she, Geralt? [He smacks him across the chest with a flick of his arm to indicate he better fucking say something complimentary here, if he knew what was good for him.] I know, I know, one might even say I have the White Wolf wrapped around my finger. It's my animal magnetism, of course. Now, Geralt, sit. We're going to do something with this hair of yours. What do you think, Ciri? He needs to match. Mostly so I don't lose the two of you in the dark.
[An excuse. He wants to simply make Geralt presentable, of course, but there is... it is special, too, to match the two of them. To see their connection, even if it's only in a few glowing flowers.]
