[Jaskier pauses, looking at Geralt. He leans back, then ducks under the table to retrieve his thrown cracker. He pops it in his mouth, chewing a bit thoughtfully.]
You mean that.
[Not a knock against Geralt, really. He only... he's glad, in turn, that Geralt gets it. Without him having to explain. And Ciri, too, embraced the creature without any hesitation, even when Jaskier had been prepared for it. He wasn't sure. Monster hunters, you know. Even if Geralt had a rather soft heart for more than just monsters.
He could kiss him for it. Only because he really feels as if he is finding his footing again. Jaskier wants the same for his friend.]
A testament to the power of healing and time, I suppose. [His lips quirk. Geralt knows better than anyone that healing does not mean his nightmares have stopped. It does not mean Jaskier doesn't flinch from fire still, or goes to bed without the lamp on. But it means he isn't looking for answers in the bottom of bottles.] I'm glad you came, too. To see this place. You should stay as long as you like.
