Ah yes, he did try to convince me this was the afterlife and didn't take it well when I poked all kinds of holes in his logic. I do remember him having a very bleak view of things in general, even outside his little theory, so him having been in a bad place explains a lot. In fact, I'd say it's relieving to hear those aren't his real views of the world - I'm also glad to hear he's improved since then.

[Funny how suddenly "being interested in someone else" is suddenly a valid excuse in Claude's eyes when he's just been telling Jaskier about people being able to love more than one person at the same time. He wants to call him out for this hypocrisy, but it's difficult when it may bite him back in the ass... he's sure Claude would use any argument against him in an oh now you agree? way. Mmmh.]

Yet you are the one he had a kid with. ;) But a fussing Dimitri? I'd love to witness that.

[That's what you get for teaching him the winking emote, Claude.]

We spoke last during your gym battle! He called you the second-best strategist in Fodlan and "brilliant". He also did not believe me when I told him you hold him in high regard because of things he's said to you. So I suppose he still has some things to work through, but do me a favor, if you will - tell him he's dear to you to his face, would you? His type need things spelled out to him.

[Yes, he's drawing a comparison to Geralt here.]

Correct me all you want, smarty-pants, the point still stands. And please do bring him! I must witness his fussing with my very own eyes, then I'll have something to use next time he tries to get all bleak on me.

I think this one is good to wrap up?

Learning under the tutelage of the best in their craft is, indeed, a unique experience worth fighting for. But it says something about you that you've managed to achieve the second-best title in the land (and therefore, *the* best of your generation) WITHOUT their teachings. So less sighing over opportunities missed and more bragging. That other class never stood a chance against you, with or without a teacher.

Nobody on this kingdom, be person or animal, is more high-maintenance than myself. Bring him, and let him talk. I shall have some fun with his fussing, mayhap show him what happens when someone tries to out-talk us.


[Talking more than Jaskier or Claude is forbidden, signed: the sanity of Johto.]
