"Depends on whose company you were in." Which is a way not to agree, even though she's right. Yennefer is right about him more often than he probably gives her credit for.
In particular where it regards the polite habits he's picked up so he doesn't unnerve people who don't like knowing he can hear the beating of their heart or smell what they had for breakfasts still lingering on their breath hours after. Things most people don't like because they remind them that he's not human quite.
"And here I thought you weren't the jealous kind." She's teasing. They've never claimed ownership of one another. He's never tried to chain her the way most men do -- the wish notwithstanding.
"But it is a fine time, perish the idea I turn you away when you actually want to talk, such a miracle might not ever happen again."
Geralt, these are the people you have chosen in your life.
He wanted to keep her, it's true. But Geralt knows better than to think Yen's attention is in short supply. He's willing to share.
Despite how it might seem, he knows better than to try to hold on too tightly.
He grunts softly, acknowledging her joke. He won't let the ribbing drive him away, but it doesn't make what's to come next any more comfortable. "It's about Jaskier," he admits before he can back out. "I'm... concerned."
