[Of everything he'd just said, that's what Sam took from it all? Well, he can't complain entirely if only because --] Certainly. My favorite moniker I've come up with for him, even if it was one of the firsts. It really stuck fast.
[Ah, it was a joke to him.
Jaskier purses his lips a second time, crossing his arms. This time it's not so much at Sam as it is that someone else is walking around with a name that he came up with. (No, it's not the most imaginative thing, but he still feels a bit possessive over it.)
Despite himself, the expression does make him snort.] Gods, you've really gotten that down, haven't you?
[A coworker is possibly the strangest way to describe someone he's heard. A coworker in what? He shouldn't be the only one interrogated.]
Yes, well, they don't just let any peasant become the most famous bard on the Continent. [That is said without a hint of irony; it's not only something Jaskier believes. It is, in fact, quite true. This place is the first time in a very long time he has gone somewhere without being instantly recognized... or, at least, without his songs being sung around him.] Your... coworker, you said? What is it you do? I'm curious how one earns a moniker like that. Oh. Is it literal? Is he some sort of werewolf?
[The very idea is rather enticing. Ooh. Is Sam a werewolf? That does bring to mind what, exactly, a werewolf would consider work, but... he's not a werewolf expert.] Oh, you mustn't worry if you are, either. Geralt doesn't go around indiscriminately killing any monster he finds, I promise.
