The purse of Jaskier's lips shows he's not exactly thrilled to hear it. Again.] So I've heard from many I've met here. But I assure you, we are a very important breed.
[They are more than mere musicians, after all, but he easily suspects Steve here, with his short name and brawny muscles, will not catch on to the subtleties.]
Yes, in some ways. Personally I do enjoy ballads recounting my adventures, or the lives or adventures of others. I got my start recounting hunts by my Witcher friend -- I'm sure you've met Geralt.

And, of course, I dabble plenty in poetry, as well. Love poetry, specifically. You know, if you're ever in need of flattering a special someone.
