[Jaskier shifts himself, as if to get more comfortable, though even in the Horizon he is so wound tight that there is little hope of the smallest bit of comfort. His eyes watch Julie's face as she explains, his only expression change a twist to his brows as they lower, attempting to see what... whatever she saw.]
Yes, we have mercury.
[He may have elaborated once upon a time, but he only wants to hear more. And while it is an explanation of mercury -- used mostly for alchemical reasons on the Continent -- and his hands grip his leg tightly, he knows Julie will always get to the point quickly enough.
Anyway? Anyway? Jaskier's eyes grow larger, and he takes a break from staring her down to rub his face. What the fuck does any of that mean?]
It sounds like a shithole, honestly. [He doesn't even make himself exhale an extra note of humor. He breathes. Tries to put what all of those things together might mean.
He doesn't have a single idea.]
And the Singularity is showing you this? Would that not mean the gods are linked to it by the same bond as ourselves? [Though it is a point he once wandered himself, long ago, in Thorne's libraries.] I had something similar in mind. Geralt said there are using glamours, and there must be something quite large and powerful to keep all of them in. It makes sense to me that the power of a god would be required for such a thing. But... I can't claim I know much of gods besides stories from home. I don't know what it means to... to defy one. To bring one's illusions down.
