It's far in the past. [He appreciates it, but really, it didn't affect him until they were looking for Geralt. And even then, he isn't around to force anyone to like the Witcher. He's not exactly easily likable. He says harsh things. And Alucard is volatile to misspoken words. It was sort of inevitable, really, and as far as he can tell they've solved it in their own way.
He pets the little swallow with amusement.] When they're not your dead, I suppose that's true.
[Not that he his own dead to take care of, either. If the elves died on the way to Xin'trea -- and by gods, he hoped not -- he wouldn't be aware, either way. The Witchers, too. They weren't his people. He'd barely known any of them. And now their bodies lay spheres away, with poor Vesemir to take care of.
Hm. He pokes at a piece of chicken, considering it. It is a good point. One he's considered himself, of course, but the point of the Sandpiper was no one knew what who or what they were. Here, there is no fear of being discovered. The people who know him here know him for who he is.]
How long a nap are we discussing? One year? Two? [His lips twitch, and this time the joke comes easier.] Funny. I understand your urge now, to make your crypt and simply fall asleep. Though I'd probably get bored of it far sooner than you.
