If someone was physically attacking her and his family wasn't around, he would indeed try to help. But he understood defending her honor as merely someone insulting her.
He watches her for a second, and he sighs. "I'm going to say something, and-- it's not a jab at your parents, although it does apply. It's about love and the logic you just used." He pokes her nose. "A person's love isn't proof that they aren't hurting you. Love makes people some really stupid shit."
Could Joel be proof of this, maybe? Jaskier isn't sure how true his love for Midge is.

Midge genuinely wants to know what his reasoning is. She’s not angry. She wants to understand.
