The party was going on marvelously at Jaskier’s brothel. The Rosemary and Thyme was full of people chatting, drinking, playing, laughing, dancing and every other sort of social activities that a party like that could’ve induced. Jaskier was greeting his guests and bragging about his place and the atmosphere that was spreading all around of pure fun. He was honestly very happy in that moment, to see all of his new and old friends coming from every part of the world to attend his event, and was wearing a big smile since hours now.
The place was very elegantly decorated with all sort of plants, curtains made out of the finest silks, lights, flowers… every sort of fancy decoration that helped the guests getting into the party mood. And it was also so very well done. After all the bard ran from a place to another for more than a week to get everything in time and having everything ready for the celebration.
The music was loud and the laughters were even louder for all the evening. Jaskier took a moment for himself to walk out the place and taking a small breath of the cold air that was spreading through the night into the streets of Novigrad. The city seemed so quite from the outside of the tavern. Almost… sad. Jaskier blinked once, and turned himself to enter his place once again, so ready to inhale the passion of the party from every part of the room.
It was then that he noticed the elf, standing on a corner of the tavern. Ah, so typical of Iorveth. Jaskier immediately recognized him - how could he let the elf come in unnoticed, not greeting him when he entered the place earlier? How long was he here though? …Scoia’taels, always so quiet.
Jaskier smiled and started to walk through his guest and when he was closer to the elf… everyone started to shout and the music was even louder, the laughs and the hype was higher all around. It was the new year’s hour.
Jaskier was caught out of guard, not being close to anyone to wish them a happy new year, but being closer to Ioverth to be heard by him at least. He hesitated for a second, before realizing… that the elf was standing under a misletoe.
What. an. awesome. opportunity.
Jaskier didn’t waste a second. He took those last two steps closer to Ioverth and without saying anything at all… he simply kissed him. The party was being so wild into the background, while the bard posed his lips quickly, but gently, onto the elf’s ones. For once, Jaskier remained silent, let the kiss talk - at least for that moment - putting in it all the gratitude he still had for the Scoia’tael, and not only that. He was truly amazed and happy that he came to his party, it wasn’t expected at all, but at the same time a nice and pleasant surprise.
