[Jaskier, Yennefer, Cirilla... this bard thinks the next one to arrive should have white hair and a strong horse smell, but as usual Destiny has other plans. Jaskier stares at the text Cirilla sent him and Yennefer, not believing what he's seeing. He knew this was an option, of course, but for it to actually happen to them...
Who is going to be next? Jaskier thinks of an old lady buried in Lettenhove and a young bard buried in Oxenfurt, and something gets stuck in his throat.
They meet at Cirilla's door in the hotel, and soon as Jaskier sees Yennefer, he wonders what she's thinking about this whole deal - she is, after all, Cirilla's new mom. Technically. He intends to ask her how she's feeling but before he can even open his mouth, the princesses arrive.
Fuck. Jaskier has always noticed how much Cirilla looks like Pavetta, but seeing them side to side is something else. Their age is so close, too, because Pavetta is as young as Jaskier had seen her over fourteen years ago.
...double fuck, they could be their daughters. Melitele, have mercy.]
Your Highness. [He says with a bow, deciding to stick to what Pavetta is familiar with until they get settled in.] It's a pleasure to see you again. [He means it, but he realizes how stupid it sounds to dance around the subject.] Would expressing my sympathies be too much?
[Showing condolences to families is something he can do, but how do you do that to the dead person herself???]
Discussing the situation with the chaos gals
