"You'd be a stunning model. You kept that drawing from the art jam, I hope."
He still has his, and he treasures it so. When she says she'd like to see those paintings, he wrinkles his nose. Would his parents even have them still? Maybe they were burned. He doesn't know how to feel about that.
"I told you about Geralt's horse Roach, right? Well, all his horses were named Roach. All brown mares, too. I've known Geralt for over twenty years, so I've seen many a Roach die or retire."
Immediately after I posted the tag I realized you were talking about Roach lol
“I did,” she confirms. “What? You weren’t a cute little boy?” Somehow they’ve circled back to his childhood again.
“Oh!” Midge laughs out loud. “Yes, you told me that. I thought you were talking about bugs and I was very curious why you were so sentimental about them.”
Talking about roaches is probably a better topic than Jaskier’s childhood.
it can't be a Witcher related thing without the classic gag, you did nothing wrong
"I was fucking adorable. It's just... you know." He shrugs, trying not to make it seem like it's not a big deal. "I wasn't really myself on those paintings."
He pulls a face and pokes her as 'punishment'. "Eww, that's bloody disgusting. There's only one bug I approve of, and that's butterflies. Ah, I guess spiders aren't so bad when they're eating the other bugs. Camping with mosquitoes isn't fun."
Midge hums in her throat, her fingers stroking his chest. “I’m sorry, darling.”
“I’ve been off spiders ever since you and Geralt killed those things at Moishe’s factory. I mean, I guess I was never on spiders, but you know what I’m trying to say.”
Those things had been massive and absolutely disgusting.
Her sympathy is met with a kiss to the top of her head - a gesture that speaks better than words, for once. Saying it's ok wouldn't have been honest.
The spider thing makes him laugh. "I do know what you're saying. I was talking about normal spiders, but you have an excellent point. Did the factory function well afterward? I know Geralt made a big mess with the broken wall and all."
