I am doing the classic mistake of working on too many ideas at once, and so nothing is done, but here is a lil Geralt/Jaskier thing from unspecified past timeline.
Geralt looked at him for a moment, then looked down at his hands, this time making much of gathering himself, for humorous effect. “I can’t believe,” he said slowly, “that I am going to have to be the one to say this to you, Jaskier, but– your feelings–” He paused, breathed out, and breathed back in again. “Are valid, and other people having it worse or not doesn’t change that.”
It worked; Jaskier laughed. “Did that hurt?” he said. “It sounded like it hurt.”
“It hurt, a bit,” Geralt admitted. “Now don’t make me say it again. I’m sorry to hear of your trouble.”
“Thank you,” Jaskier said, subdued.
