"Geralt, love, you have to let me go," Jaskier says.

Geralt doesn't answer, but his arms stay tight around Jaskier's hips.

"Geralt," Jaskier says, again.

Geralt squeezes Jaskier tighter. Right over his bladder. Which is rather the problem.

"If you don't let me get up I will piss all over you," Jaskier threatens.

Geralt grumbles wordlessly, but his grip loosens. Not enough to let Jaskier wriggle free, but enough that there's no direct pressure on his bladder, at least.

According to Triss, this will wear off in a week or so. Something about instincts and spells gone awry, Jaskier sort of stopped listening to the details as soon as she started to get technical, but the important part is that it will, eventually, wear off. In the meantime, Jaskier is quite literally stuck with the clingiest Geralt in the world. When Jaskier doesn't have to follow the urgent call of nature, it's quite adorable.

"I'll be back in five minutes," Jaskier says. "Less, even. Please. I really don't want to piss myself. I like this outfit."

"You like all your outfits," Geralt grumbles. But he does let go.

Jaskier scurries for the outhouse and back as fast as he can. Before he makes it back to the room, Geralt is meeting him in the hall, wrapping his arms around Jaskier's waist and burying his nose in Jaskier's neck.

"Missed you," he murmurs.

Jaskier lets out a soft laugh as he tries to steer his very large and unhelpful witcher towards their bedroom. "When this wears off," he warns Geralt as they reach the door, "you are going to be mortified."

"Hm," Geralt says.

"Probably won't look at me for a week," Jaskier adds. "Might even take up some contract that's 'too dangerous' for me to come with you on."

Geralt's arms tighten, and there's a bit of a growl. Geralt trying to protect Jaskier against their own future selves.

"Don't worry," Jaskier says, and he reaches around awkwardly to pat some part of Geralt--a forearm, it turns out. "I won't go until you tell me you want me gone."

Geralt gives a pleased hum. It almost sounds like a purr.

Because Jaskier has never been one to resist a good bit of comedic timing, he adds as an afterthought, "Except the next time I have to piss."
