#look i have Geralt suggest that Ciri give her dad a chance because like... idk it's just a chance

[bard-llama]

Emhyr, wasted, crying on Geralt's shoulders, wondering where did he go wrong and cannot approach his daughter. Geralt hardly holding his tongue not to lecture him on exactly how he got wrong with dates, facts and statistics.

Hahaha, Geralt has RECEIPTS!

Emhyr: I just wanted my kingdom and my daughter! How did it all go wrong!?

Geralt, interally: well, the whole accidentally killing Pavetta thing did not help. Or the faking of your death. Or your subsequent attempts to retrieve Ciri from her grandparents, who were understandably protective, if a bit overly stubborn. But I think the part that really fucked things up was the bit where you decided that the best way to get Ciri back was to invade her home and murder everyone brutally and try to kidnap her. Like, that DEFINITELY traumatized her a fuck load, and then you couldn't even kidnap her right! Which is good, because she gradually came to me, but like, damn, Duny, wtf????

Geralt, externally: hmm, can't imagine.
