just a quick question, did you intend for the “ he’d had to regrow half his teeth [see endnote],” to be there in brackets?
Yes! I wanted to code in the HTML to take you to the footnote, because I thought it would be funny, but the last like five times I’ve tried to do that, it did not work, so I just left it text only and didn’t even make the attempt this time.
So, really, it should read
It had been a good successful season, in that he’d had a good run of lucrative contracts that he’d actually gotten paid for, but he’d also had to deal with a variety of very unpleasant people and sticky situations, and he had some new scars, he’d had to regrow half his teeth*, and he badly, badly needed a respite.
* Yeah I know that in Innermost Depths Jaskier and Yennefer speculate that Geralt takes such good care of his teeth because they won’t grow back if they fall out but it turns out they’re both wrong. They do grow back. Geralt just really hates the way his mouth tastes when he hasn’t brushed his teeth.
But since I can’t be arsed to remember how to do HTML anymore, it’s just a clunky [see endnote].
