[ she doesn't need to see the roll of stephen's eyes to know it is happening, even from behind the book he's buried in. she still lets herself look back just in case, her smirk an accurate response to the sarcasm.
( there is a part of her that realizes this lighthearted joking, that the ease she's found herself sliding back to, is in no small part because of their distance from the castle. that, in addition to her general understanding of the types of people thancred and stephen were from their previous interactions, it wasn't too difficult to allow herself to relax in small segments. to let down the lady yennefer the venerable that the castle thorne knew her to be. )
with thancred's hands around the reins, it was yennefer's task to keep them on route - the more local map something they'd picked up in the city, which was hardly the most helpful map she's ever used, but it has them moving in the right direction. and, if everything went smoothly, they were barely a couple hours away. ]
Let me remind you that you're the only one having issues walking.
[ because yes, she has no problem being ruthless - especially when she knows that stephen is good natured enough with regards to that sort of humor, and in general. plus, thancred isn't entirely safe from her ruthlessness either - there's still plenty of time left in their journey for her to find something. for now, though, her curiosity does pique at thancred's question, her own eyes glancing back to stephen again. ]
Yes- how terrifying if this mode of transportation? [ which, really, she is curious about this - stephen had mentioned portals to her, previously. and was familiar enough with them as they made it to hayle. what would he constitute as terrifying? ]
