I wasn't trying to make you feel old! I was just surprised by just how long you've known Geralt for. You'd never mentioned it before, and that's a long time to be friends with someone at any age. You can hardly blame me for being surprised!
And why should age bother you, anyway? Forty years has done nothing but made you breathtaking in your accomplishments and beauty, so I assume that by the time you're eighty not even the gods will be able to match you for splendor. Growing old shouldn't hold any fears for you.
[No one can say Claude isn't good at soothing ruffled feathers when he wants to be.]
That said...I think I detect a struck nerve. You aren't going to tell me he callously spurned your advances, are you? Only I didn't think someone with such poor taste could exist. And obviously if you weren't interested in him, then there'd be nothing to be upset over.
