Why Not Friends
The 3rd instalment of my Geraskier canon-related series is posted here!
Summary:
Jaskier had made Geralt relent on many things already: stopping more often in inns than was necessary, letting the human accompany on some hunts, or the chamomile oil were some examples. His very presence on the Path, with Geralt, was probably the main one.
Perhaps all of those previous indulgences meant Jaskier had gotten used to get his way, at the end, and that he probably thought it would be the same for this, too.
After all, even Geralt wasn’t quite certain why it felt so important to maintain that wall between them. Not if he didn’t think too long about it, that is.
Can also be read as a standalone, since we’re in Geralt’s head for this fic and he remains unaware of how many people are direct witnesses of the way he and Yennefer celebrated their alive-ness together at the end of the djinn episode
