It's very rare, but sometimes I can be.

[ Now there is a glimpse of dry humor from Jayce himself. He is very perceptive when it comes to people's feelings, empathic, one might say. He knows Viktor better than anyone, and he knows Ciri is a good person, so she'd naturally feel guilty for her friend nearly dying several times, even if it was pure bad luck. Neither of them is truly to blame, it really was a comedy of very dangerous errors. ]

I came out of the Horizon with a knack for healing and I've been focusing all my energy and training on it since. I always dreamed of having magic, it's very rare and taboo in our society.

[ Jayce has told Viktor that he feels like he was made for it, in a way. Maybe that's wishful thinking, but the way magic seems to work for him, it comes so easily, more than any skill he's had before. But it does come from a genuine place of love and passion; his dream come true. Every spell he's learned, a miracle. Jayce's healing magic grows stronger by the day. The determination to save the life of your partner is an excellent motivation. ]

Oh yes, it would be a distraction from worrying. Or working through my worrying. I have a tendency to get my anxiety out in the forge.

[ And it probably says something to how much worry and anxiety that might be that he is built like a brick house, working as often and as hard as he does. Jayce is warm and friendly and talking to someone instead of obsessively panicking over Viktor is worth taking the chance. ]

Geralt recently asked me to help him with some work, I don't think I've ever met someone who seems so comfortable with himself. At least from the outside he seems that way.

[ Jayce isn't assuming he can tell everything about a person from one look, but there was a certain calm from Geralt. Curiosity and stillness all at once. For someone not capable of the latter of those, it's admirable. ]
