[ Genya arrives just when she said she would. She has a look of satisfaction and a purse full of the coin owed to him. She presents it to him with a toss of the bag in his direction. ]
Payment for services rendered. [ She's no true Healer or Heartrender, but she's learned enough to find sway with those through their heart and body. ]
[ Geralt takes the coin, surprised that Genya had actually been able to secure his payment. Perhaps he'll be able to make it back to Kaer Morhen after all. ]
Thank you, [ he says, pushing a bottle of wine toward her. ] There's a bath upstairs. I can warm it if it's cooled.
[ It took a bit of application of the small science to get her way. She's not as well versed as Nina, but she's learned enough to get by. She gives him a warm smile as she takes the bottle of wine. ]
[ She takes a moment and pointedly looks him over. Her expression doesn't change. She doesn't see him any differently. ]
You're the one that did all the hard work. I only used pretty words to get your well deserved coin. [ Regardless, she follows him up the stairs. It's been a long day. ]
I didn't think you would want a bath after I'd gotten it full of blood and viscera. I don't mind if you go first. [ Truly, he doesn't. The bath is already there and full when he opens the door to the room, and he warms it again with a quick cast of igni. ]
I can leave the room, if you'd like. [ Although he doesn't think she does. ]
[ She opens the bottle of wine and takes a sip before she passes it to him. She's long gotten used to life without the luxury of the palace. She likes it better that way. It's safer for her. ]
You don't have to if you'd like. You can tell me what the next stop is.
[ He does avert his gaze so that she can strip and get into the bath, but the water doesn't really conceal much. Geralt himself is comfortable with nudity, so this isn't something he's concerned about. ]
I'm heading north next. Nilfgaard has been spreading word that witchers are dangerous and not to be trusted. It's nothing new, but I'd like to avoid the area until that calms down.
[ Genya strips and sinks into the still hot bath. She starts to wash, making sure to lather her body and hair with the soap provided. She listens as he speaks. ]
North then. I'm sure you can continue to have use of a Tailor at your side, no?
[ She tries not to take too long. A hot bath like this is luxurious, and she doesn't want to let it cool too much before he has a chance to enjoy it. She washes herself clean until her skin is pink and her hair drips. ]
You wouldn't have gotten laid without me tonight, remember?
