    Summary

    Geralt wishes he could simply slide back under the bath water, but he knows Jaskier would fish him out again. The man is a terrier dog when he sets his mind to something. Case in point, following a witcher around the countryside for nearly ten years. Any chance Geralt had of escaping him has long passed. 

    “They look the same. It’s a fucking silk doublet, Jaskier! Just pick one.”

    But Jaskier is like a hound on a scent. He picks up a neckerchief and waves it under Geralt’s nose. It smells of his preferred soap. 

    “What color is this?” 

    Geralt glares at him.

    (Or, what it says on the tin. All enhancements have prices.)

    Summary

    Jaskier may or may not be in love with his closest friend.

    (It’s the former.)

    Geralt may or may not feel quite the same way.

    (It's the latter.)

    They'll make do.

    Summary

    "Thrown out already?" Geralt asks, and sees the bard shaking his head from the corner of his eye.

    "Hardly! But a wise bard knows when to leave the audience wanting more."

    "I've never met one."

    "One what?"

    "A wise bard," he says, and glances over to see the bard's mouth flapping indignantly.

    "I -- am going to let that go, because you're right, where are my manners." He ducks in front of Geralt as they step onto solid ground, forcing him to halt, and gives him a bow, no less graceful for being quickly executed. "Jaskier, troubadour, poet -- and barker -- at your service."

    __________________________________

    Geralt assumes the bard will wander away of his own accord. Eventually.

    It takes a while to realize that's the last thing he wants.
