Have an equally unenthusiastic sigh. For the first time, he moves forward, palms planted on the table.
"He believes I can leash you to me." Geralt's distaste over the thought is tangible, but underneath it is more, something almost protective when his eyes linger on Dean. "Like a feral hunting hound, pointed towards targets I would consider acceptable, to tame the effects of the curse."
Unspoken, obviously, is that he would not point Dean at Lucifer, though the fact that Lucifer never addressed it is something Geralt has silently noted. Isn't certain what to make of it yet.
Either way, Geralt's choice of I rather than we is deliberate; Lucifer clearly meant he and he alone. The reasons for that, Lucifer did not make a secret. Doesn't matter, either. It isn't a solution, even if he were to want to do it, even if they were to remove Dean or a pile of corpses from the equation. A curse cannot be tamed. Not forever. That's the first mistake anyone ever makes when faced with one.
