[As though yesterday wasn't bad enough. Mat's been feeling a bit off, between involuntarily setting his pillow ablaze the day prior and just a general sense of...something he can't quite place.
And it happened again, as he made his way back to the castle when darkness swallowed the sun. Not a blaze this time, but a very small little tempest that burst over his head and was gone. He can't even chalk it up to some errant mage, he felt himself do it.
Fucking fuck.
At least, he supposes, he doesn't have to deal with being consumed by anxiety and fear over whether or not it would happen. It happened, now he's got to deal with it. Really, he should be more bothered than just irritated, but...he really just isn't feeling entirely himself.
He's not sure what he's looking for as he wanders the castle, unsettled but strangely relieved. When he sees her, he thinks maybe he has his answer. The Lady Yennefer had not slipped his mind. Quite the opposite. Since their meeting at the summit, he's revisited their conversation again and again in his mind. Knowing already what sort of conversation he'd have with Anakin on the subject, he decides to try his luck.
What's the worst that could happen?
But...she does still make him nervous. So he tries to catch her eye, test the waters as to if she'd be open to approach.]
