[As Dylan moves in and his hands settle on Jaskier's shoulders, Jaskier's hand at Dylan's shoulder releases it to wrap that arm around his shoulders while his other arm settles firmly around Dylan's middle. He turns his head just enough to give Dylan's temple a quick peck before resting his head against Dylan's.]

They can wait.

[Much like Dylan, there isn't really any attempt to let him go. He isn't trying to rush Dylan through the embrace, but rather allowing him to take shelter there as long as he needs it. And he needs it. Jaskier knows without question our doubt that Dylan really needs it. The look of barely contained tears in his eyes when Jaskier refused to accept the notion that he ought to keep his distance spoke to Dylan's fears and the pain of all this. If Jaskier could take it away with this embrace, he would. But Jaskier knows he doesn't have any ability to help with this. Still, he talks to Dylan about possibilities, trying to bolster a little more hope within him about his future and that this curse doesn't need to define him or his life.]

I'm not sure how much can ultimately be done to end your curse since it's a bit different from the cases of lycanthropy back home, but Geralt says that every curse has a condition for breaking them. So, don't you start giving up on yourself to this curse just yet. We can talk more with Geralt about it sometime. Or Yennefer, if you like. She's a... Ah, well, she's incredibly terrifying. I cannot emphasize that enough. But she's a very powerful and skilled sorceress. Even if she can't figure out a cure, she could perhaps make like a proper witch and find a potion that might weaken you or something on the nights you're going to transform and make you less of a danger.

But regardless, no matter what happens from today forward, no more talk of abandoning you, yeah? I'm not going anywhere.
