[this version of Geralt is from the Netflix adaptation of The Witcher but I'm familiar with most book + all game canon, and open to any AUs etc.]

I'm no knight, Jaskier. Most people will never see me as honorable or dashing.

capcha is a bitch, I do not blame you

[earwormed]

I think you can be dashing. Though I mostly think that when you're not covered in the guts of some monster you just killed.

[lastwishes]

I don't think anyone can be dashing in that state, to be fair.

[earwormed]

A valid point. 'Dashing' and 'monster guts' are usually mutually exclusive.

This just means I'll have to take the effort to clean you up more often. And while I'm at it, I'll get you some more clothes that don't smell like horse.

[lastwishes]

They'll just end up smelling like horse too.

[earwormed]

But there will be a brief, shining moment where they don't smell like horse. And THEN you can be the dashing witcher hero who gets songs written about him and sweeps ladies off their feet and, again, doesn't smell like horse.

[lastwishes]

Fine, I'll entertain you just this once. But no tight clothes, I can't stand the itch.

I'm glad we met, even under those circumstances.

[conjurechaos]

They weren't the worst of circumstances to start.

I know what you mean.

[lastwishes]

You mean we could have done worse?

[conjurechaos]

Yes. Imagine if I was able to enchant you from the start. I wouldn't have known how charming you are in your natural state.

[lastwishes]

At least you still find it charming.

[conjurechaos]

Seasons and rulers change. You don't.

The dry humor and no shortage of wordplay. What is not to love?

We've both lived long lives. Rest doesn't sound so bad.

[conjurechaos]

is that what you want for your twilight? No blaze of glory

[lastwishes]

No witcher has ever died happy in their own bed. It's just a dream.

[conjurechaos]

with all said and done, you deserve a chance to try.

[lastwishes]

I'd be even happier with you there with me.

[conjurechaos]

I will do you one better than that and stay with you until that time as much as I can

Too much free time, it seems.

Why not? I know you have expensive tastes.

[givingexposition]

It's another extra skill, it's never bad to have as many as you can. If you left me braid your hair then it won't get in the way while you fight or get covered in monster guts.

I have good taste, not everything I like it's always expensive. But let's not focus on me, I was asking if there's anything YOU would like to do, try, taste...You have a bard all at your service.

[lastwishes]

Wouldn't it look silly on me?

I'm perfectly happy with everything I'm currently doing, trying, and tasting.

[givingexposition]

Please, I'm not going to give you pigtails. There's a lot of different kind of braids, and different sizes might look better on you. Maybe a pair of smaller braids on the side to keep the hair out of your face, then just tied on the back....if you don't like it, it can simply be undone.

Ah, well that's a good thing to know.

[lastwishes]

One. I'll try one.

I feel as though you're expecting me to confess something.

[givingexposition]

Deal!

Fear not, my dear Witcher, I don't expect anything. But in a few days it would make two months since we ended stranded in the forest and found a cave. You know the one. It's silly, I know, to think of it as an anniversary of sorts. Specially if we didn't do anything after the first month but...I don't know. I wanted to do something special for you.
