Not to take away from your whole doom-and-gloom feelings, Jayce, but every man is capable of death. Whether they choose to believe so or not.
[He firmly believes that. In the end, it only comes down to how desperate they become. And how they choose to react to that desperation. It does not mean every person would kill, given the choice. It only means it is a choice in the first place.
Boy. Not exactly the sort of conversation he'd been expecting right out of one of his newest performances. But despite the heavy tone of Jayce's confessions (if that's what they are, and as he goes on, Jaskier fully believes it must be), it still feels... hmm.
Not heavy. Not dark.
It's almost enjoyable.]
I don't mind. [He shrugs.] Where I come from, you cannot throw a rock without hitting a murderer or two. [Oh. That was not really the right choice of words. But -- you know, he sort of lets himself keep going, when he once would have stopped. When he would have realized he is not speaking things that should be spoken.] And is that it? Nothing else to confess? If you want Viktor to trust you, you really should be rather straightforward about these sorts of things.
