For a moment, Geralt almost considers asking him what things his fans send him that are so bad, but then he realizes that this is both a very invasive question and also a very unwise question, because Jaskier might actually answer it. And if it's bad enough to make Jaskier, a man who has possibly negative amounts of shame, have to drink when he thinks about it, Geralt doesn't want to know. He will live a happier and more fulfilled life blissfully ignorant of the weird shit that people Snapchat at him or whatever.
For some reason, the prospect of Geralt taking his pictures down from the Instagram account is terribly distressing to Jaskier, and he's actually a little startled by his outburst-- it'd be hard to tell, Geralt's surprise mostly consists of staring at him with a furrowed brow, but it seems odd that he'd be so invested in the pictures on Geralt's account. It's not as though his photos reflect on Jaskier's reputation or anything. That's not how social media works, or at least he doesn't think it does. So why would he be so upset about Geralt taking down a few pictures?
Pictures, specifically, of him that a number of other people seem to find very attractive.
That thought kicks around in his head for a minute or so while he frowns at his phone. If these comments had come from anyone else, Geralt might have thought that they shared those sentiments. But Jaskier wouldn't, there's no way that a young, objectively attractive man looking to start a music career would be interested in a middle-aged father who spent most of his time around horses and smelled like it, too. He would be interested in pretty young people like himself, or someone wealthy who liked to pay for pretty young things. Geralt is none of those things.
And he also isn't interested in men, that's important to remember, too.
"Why would you want pictures of me?"
Geralt doesn't even want pictures of himself. Why would anyone else?
