[Jaskier's smile is tinged at the edges. He tips his head as he considers the words.
It's a very generous thing, he thinks, to say so out loud. And in some strange way, it's nearly embarrassing to be praised for it. He did not want to be. If he could have anything, he would've wanted it to never be necessary. And now he can only hope that someone has filled the void he left behind... though they will never be able to find the Sandpiper now.]
I don't mention it for praise. But I'm sure you know that already. [Strangely enough, he can sense some kindred spirit in Steve... even if they would be in very different positions in the same fight.] You know, I've heard very similar from Sam. I can see why you may have gravitated towards one another.
[It's a good thing, he thinks, to be reminded of Sam. There are few people Jaskier has met as genuinely good as that man.
Jaskier places a small pile of coins on the table, plucking his hat back up. It's been an engaging conversation, and he's made his warning well about Goro. And... talked to the man Sam considers a friend. It's simply good to know there are more Summoned they can depend on, should the worst arise.] Well. While I hope nothing happens, I hope I can be of use to you should tensions grow tighter around here. Until then, I must get back to work. [His smile is warm again now, genuine, as he offers a hand to shake.] Come see me if you ever have time. Easy enough to find me at any tavern, if you have a good ear.
