I know, I know, I'm sorry.

[About not saying more beforehand, about how bizarre it is and not leading up to it well.]

But...yeah, Jaskier, he was dying. I honestly just sort of thought people knew that, I wasn't trying to hide it or anything.

[But it wasn't her information to share anyway. She only knew because she'd found out by accident. Which had ended up working out, in the end, but it hadn't been anything she felt she had any right to talk about.]

And he was...it was getting really bad, and something needed to be done so we did it. I don't know if there's going to be any consequences, I got in trouble for not having a license and documents for my herbal remedies...but it's done and he's gonna be okay.

[That's the important thing. Even if there are repercussions, it's worth it, because Viktor is going to live.]

That's mostly what I'm apologizing for, just dumping so much on you at once. I promise...I'm going to try to work on that.

[She does go into his arms, laying her head on his shoulder and sighing heavily. God, she's tired. During it all she hadn't had time to panic or even think about much. There hadn't been time.

Now it can all catch up with her, the adrenaline fading and turning into exhaustion and the sort of relief that borders on hysteria.]


It's nice to know you'd bribe government officials for me, though. And I don't regret it, not even a little, I'm glad I could help. I just...Jaskier, it was so scary. It was like something out of Frankenstein, and I know that doesn't mean anything to you but the machine...I've never seen anything like it, and he was awake the whole time, even when I was operating...

[It really doesn't matter what Jaskier says to comfort her, anything will be welcome, she just needs to release this all and share it with someone. Who isn't also recovering from terrifying experimental back alley surgery.]
