It's been a very curious birthday for him, to say the least. Not bad, per se, just different. Usually he tries to celebrate big, but his new project is keeping him busy for such a thing. But what he does instead is still incredibly enjoyable: seafood festival plus ferris wheel with his boyfriend and protegee? A complete delight. Organizing an event that will put him back on a stage and will help a good cause? Exciting as hell. Besides, the summer solstice can count as the actual celebration, he thinks.
So when he returns to their lovely suite in the evening, he's tired but incredibly pleased with himself. Geralt quickly tells him to take a bath, and Jaskier accepts the idea with a chuckle. He does like baths, though perhaps not as much as his boyfriend, so it's cute when that's the witcher's solution to things.
To be fair, today he is absolutely right. So Jaskier asks him to order room service while he gets the bath ready. He gets the water running then grabs his bag of grooming essentials and takes out... things that he's pretty sure weren't there last time he checked. He turns them around in his hands, reads the labels, sniffs the scents... Yeah, he definitely didn't buy these.
"Geralt?" he asks as he walks back to the room with a bathbomb in one hand and a massage oil bottle in the other. "Care to tell me where all these things come from?"
He has a hunch, one that says this isn't Kiri's doing... But better not jump to conclusions. That's it, isn't it? Trying out this communication thingy.
Timewarping back to June
