“ i suppose i learned early on that i could not force a lady to do things she did not want to. although there were some moments you proved to be the most stubborn, you truly have become much of the lady i hoped you would. beautiful, radiant, and barbaric when needed .. a perfect balance. i suppose at first i was opposed to the barbaric sense, but you wear it as your own. you walk your own path. you don’t need me to seek your wings. ” ( * @switlo​

    A RATIONAL EXPLANATION ,  she said .  yet ,  something in the old witcher’s chest told him that she just wanted more details .  he loosely folds his arms over his chest ,  one leg crossing over the other as he leaned against the wall .  He remembered it WELL ,  jumping off the roof of kaer morhen .  He would’ve won that bet ,  had the horse not moved .  He also distinctly recalls pretending he was FINE afterwards as Eskel laughed ,  shrugging off his injuries .  Vesimir practically forced him to go to bed after stumbling around on it for near a day ,  too stubborn and proud to admit he’d broken it .   ❝ A Rational explanation ,  huh ?  that’s all you’re after ?❞  He utters ,  a teasing cant to his voice as he spoke .
