"Oh, absolutely. We can throw a whole orgy in there."
The heavy questions are arriving, and on one hand, it's a good thing that they discuss these things; on the other, it can be quite terrifying. Jaskier kisses her just to keep his mouth busy for a moment, giving his brain time to calm down.
"I like festivities. And I do want to spend them with you. Mayhaps not the spooky one, from what I heard, we'll be busy for that one." He means Halloween - Geralt will probably have lots to kill. "We can give one a try? As long as you don't expect me to pray. We shall see how your parents and brother react during the wedding."
"Hannukkah it is, then." He tries his best to pronounce it, but it isn't perfect. Hopefully, he'll remember the name later to do some research. Now he thinks about it, he should probably read on all her holidays so he isn't caught unaware.
"How do you usually celebrate your birthday? Because I do want to kidnap you for that one."
midge doesn’t have a canon birthday so we’ll make one up
She grins. Adorable. Hanukkah’s a good holiday to start with. It’s the most joyous and fun of all the Jewish holidays, most of which are about remembrance and atonement.
“In the past, I’ve gone out for dinner and drinks, but I’d loved to be kidnapped by you. Maybe you’ll take me off somewhere very romantic.”
same here. also I'm picturing Jaskier teaming up with Imogen to throw her a surprise party
"Dinner and drinks with just Joel and the kids? Or your parents? No celebration with friends at all?" Another reason that makes him think she had been stuck in that marriage, fuck. She deserves a fucking birthday party.
"Somewhere very romantic, huh?" He pretends to think about it for a second. "So Yennefer's closet instead of mine?"
“I’ve had parties before, but they’re a lot of work. I end up doing more cooking and cleaning than I do when it’s not my birthday.” Welcome to adulthood. “Going out with Joel and a few friends was just easier. I don’t celebrate my birthday much with my parents or kids.”
She grins again. “I’d be interested to see what she has in there, but Yennefer’s clothes are very dark. I prefer brighter colors.”
lmao a total disaster without neither of them knowing French
"Oh, that doesn't sound bad at all." Joel and friends. Alright, for once, Jaskier is relieved about something from her married life. "And since your divorce? Just dinner with friends?"
He seriously needs to meet her friends and gather intel, he realizes.
"I like you in brighter colors, too. Like the red of your cheeks." He kisses them to make his point. "I'm going to miss it when you get used to our sex lives."

“Hanukkah may be a good choice, since your family won’t also be celebrating it. I don’t expect you to pray.”
She means it that she’s not going to force her religion onto him.
gonna assume they've already exchanged their birthday dates

so cute! Then take her to Paris.
