[ While Yennefer doesn't anticipate that this other woman will all but confirm the rising suspicion that she and Geralt have an attachment, hearing the words themselves is another matter; of course, learning that he'd been present in the city for a significant length of time had produced right along with it the thought that there would have been connections developed, especially in regards to the pesky matter of quota fulfillment. She had not thought to consider the possibility that he would have found more than that, especially with someone whose presence and demeanor hover a bit too close to her own for comfort.
But she has not professed any ownership in this matter, and given recent actions has even less of a leg to stand on in terms of a right to assert some sort of claim. Clearly, then, whatever Geralt has told this other woman about her affords a much more generous face to the situation than Yennefer herself has likely earned or deserved.
At the present moment, however, she sees no reason to correct any held assumptions — but it is the latter remark that piques much more for her in the way of interest. ]
A thought on which we can both agree.
[ She doesn't want to waste time here in feuding with someone else over a man — over Geralt especially, no less — as such pettiness feels significantly beneath her. She doesn't reach for the cocoa again, her gaze steady as she studies the woman seated across from her with open and unflinching attention. ]
I suppose the only question that remains is whether he can actually withstand the two of us at once.
