Rainy Day

Geralt blames himself when he and Jaskier get caught in the rain, so Geralt tries to make it up to Jaskier. They have a talk about it.Excerpt:As much as Jaskier would like to just sit back and enjoy the affection Geralt is pouring over him at the moment, it is enough to worry Jaskier a little for several reasons. The first reason is that Geralt is strung tighter than usual and seems one incident away from breaking. The second reason is that Geralt was more publicly affectionate than usual. Typically, when patrons glare at Geralt, Geralt lets go of Jaskier’s hand to avoid trouble. This time, Geralt held on tightly to Jaskier’s hand from the moment they walked into the inn until they got into their room. Now, Geralt is untying Jaskier’s boots.“Is something the matter, my dear?” Jaskier asks.Geralt’s hands still for a moment and Geralt says, “I’m fine.”“Darling, when you say that you’re fine, it is rarely accurate.”“Hmm,”“Yes, hmm.” Jaskier takes Geralt’s face into his hands. “Please tell me what’s wrong.”
