Jaskier snorts around the fork he's taken to his mouth when Geralt says that hadn't been his best moment (no shit) and raises his eyebrows at the rest. He shouldn't be surprised, this is a Geralt after all, but well... he's come to think this one treated his people better, made better decisions when it came to relationships. Then again, he did say he used to be a brooding grunter too, didn't he?
Head tilted, blue eyes look intensely at the witcher again, this time filled with curiosity.
"But you claimed her in the end, didn't you? Your Child Surprise. You mentioned a 'Ciri' when I arrived, and I didn't want to believe what I was hearing."
Because the one at home is also a deadbeat dad. Jaskier visiting Cintra to play every now and then doesn't make up for that, especially not when Calanthe doesn't allow him to sing about said deadbeat dad.
And here comes the next surprise - Geralt can't truly guess why Jaskier would need a bodyguard? Really? Everything he's heard about Dandelion so far tells him they're similar in that aspect too. Surely new Geralt has had to keep cuckold husbands away too, especially considering that comment.
"Dandelion attracts trouble yet you need to ask that question?" He asks as he raises his eyebrows again, and he takes another sip of wine before continuing. "To quote your counterpart - I hid my sausage in the wrong royal pantry."
But he doesn't sound like he regrets a single minute of it. Because he doesn't.
