#it's canon now that geralt apologizes with a drawing of stick figures

[samstree]

“Jaskier, please...”

“Nope. Not talking to you.” The bard turns around so fast his hair flies into his mouth. His fingers fidget on the lute strap, and to be fair, he doesn’t know what to say to Geralt anyway. “Stay here if you want, but don’t even try.”

Jaskier runs upstairs, heedless of the whole tavern’s eyes on him.

Shutting the door, Jaskier can hear footsteps chasing behind him. The creak of floorboards indicates the witcher’s presence in the hallway. The tension is palpable as he waits for Geralt to knock again.

He doesn’t.

Jaskier slides down against the door and lets out a sigh. He ponders his next steps all while wondering about Geralt’s new look, which he didn’t have time to react to earlier. Well, he’s one to talk, Jaskier thinks as he tucks away the hair blocking his face again.

The footsteps return.

And to his surprise, a piece of paper is slipped under the door.

Jaskier puts down his lute and picks up the paper. On it is a simple drawing of two stick figures, one with a sword on its back, the other has long hair parted in the middle. At least, that’s what he thinks they are. The hair is really just two curved lines.

Under the two figures are two words written carefully: best friends.

Jaskier has half a mind to burn the paper in the hearth but thinks better of it immediately. After soo long, it’s almost too much. The reality of it is hitting him at full force. As much as Jaskeir would like to deny it, he’s indeed spent the past two years not knowing if Geralt survived the war or not, and as much as the sight of the witcher brought him anger, it also unfurled the worry that has been making him sick to the stomach.

Jaskier stands up and opens the door.

Geralt has that look on his face again. That lost puppy look.

“I’m sorry,” he says.

The bard steps aside.

“Come in so we can talk.”

The dejection on Geralt’s face morphs into something akin to hope, and then, unbridled relief. The faintest sign of a smile tugs at the corners of his mouth. Oh dear, Jaskier has truly seen everything.

The witcher makes the move to enter when Jaskeir halts him with a hand, right over the...crease in the middle of the chest plate. Sweet Melitele.

“You know what, take off...whatever this is,” he deadpans, gesturing to the armor. “And then we can talk.”
