Miracles do happen, I like it.

[ Aka it makes him feel appreciated. ]

[lastwishes]

You're more talented when you're being honest.

[givingexposition]

Honesty is a double edged sword and dangerous to wield in places like courts. I don't like to lie but I had to learn to be cautious, Geralt.

[lastwishes]

In court, it's understandable. But with me?

[givingexposition]

With you...for the longuest time it seemed safer to keep my real feelings and thoughts to myself.

[lastwishes]

I didn't make it easy on you, did I?

[givingexposition]

I can hear you overthinking from here. Don't worry about it now. What's done is done.

I promise to be more honest with you from now on.

[lastwishes]

Hm. And I'll try to be less dismissive.

[givingexposition]

We still have so much to learn, it seems.

[lastwishes]

Even after a couple decades.

[givingexposition]

Old dogs can learn new tricks.

[lastwishes]

Mm. Always something new to learn, even when you've lived for nearly a century.

[givingexposition]

That's what life is about, isn't it? Lean, evolve, get better...change doesn't need to be a terrible thing.

[lastwishes]

We've both already made great changes.

[givingexposition]

I think so too.

I'm happier than I was before.

[lastwishes]

Hmm... good.

[givingexposition]

Good, that's all you need to say for yourself, Witcher.

[ He's not mad or anything he just likes to tease Geralt. ]

[lastwishes]

It's all I need.

[givingexposition]

That's sweet. But I wanted to know if you are happier too.

I know I can be...[ A handful. ] ...not ease to handle, in rare occasions. Very, very, very rare occasions.

[lastwishes]

I'm not sure you understand the definition of "rare."

[givingexposition]

I understand it well enough.

[lastwishes]

You don't have to worry about my happiness.

[givingexposition]

Course I do. It's how partnerships work.

[ 'Partners' seems lie a safe enough word, it probably won't make Geralt feel weird. ]

[lastwishes]

[It's toeing a line but... he isn't wrong.]

Hmm. Then you can be reassured.

[givingexposition]

[ It's a general enough word that it would be safe in unwanted people heard them use it. Or so Jaskier likes to believe. ]

Ah...that's good.
