Jaskier rolls his eyes. “Not that you don’t already know, but he very recently left to go be sad and lonely at Kaer Morhen.” He perks up, scrambling for the quill and ink and scribbling something in the notebook. “Oh, lonely and Kaer Morhen, I can work with that.”
Yennefer raises her eyebrow, incredulous. “You’re going to write a song about Geralt fucking off and brooding in a mountain keep?”
"I'm sure you'll hear it if I do." Jaskier says, blithely. "Regardless, one doesn’t throw away a potential gem, however unrefined.”

"Not so much in the taverns," Jaskier replies, unfazed. "But plenty of lords like having their heartstrings tugged. Also, shockingly popular with nobles trying to annoy each other. Upper-crust pettiness happens to be a very lucrative source of revenue.
"Besides," Jaskier continues. "Not everything I write makes it to the ears of the masses." His voice turns wry, but there's a touch of sincerity beneath it. "Some of it has a far smaller audience."
