Summary
“I’m but a mere human,” he says, theatrically collapsing into a very plush chair nearby. “I cannot handle that amount of excitement, Yennefer.”
She stops rearranging things near the hearth to give him an unconvinced look. “You probably killed that guard. And I have it on good authority that you’ve threatened more than one Witcher with that dagger you’re always carrying.”
Jaskier grins. Yennefer huffs and rolls her eyes.

Summary
The bard was dependable, though. If he had to choose between Geralt and a woman, he always chose Geralt, even if the Witcher insisted upon leaving by himself. Though Jaskier would not be Geralt's first choice for a while, it was good to know that he was Jaskier's.
(But why was a famous bard so lonely that he would follow him around, Geralt didn't think to ask.)
A story about Geralt, Jaskier, and their unhealthy friendship where Geralt doesn't ask enough questions and Jaskier is left with the assumption that constant chatter - no matter how important - is annoying. In a destructive reveal, Jaskier's secrets are spilled, and Geralt faces his fears.
Or: Geralt is an oblivious idiot as Jaskier is slowly dying.

Roach nearly eats it.
Jaskier goes to see Yennefer, and asks a favor.
