[...bollocks. So much for not wanting Dimitri to notice. This time the reply comes fast, gotta get rid of all suspicion!]
Worry not, my friend, everything is indeed all right! I'm just juggling too many things at the moment - the organization of such an event is keeping me rather busy, as you may've probably guessed already.
[Which is, to be fair, not a complete lie.]
I appreciate the offer, Dimitri, I truly do! I swear. It's very kind of you. But I shall pass for now. I will let Geralt know you are in the area, though! I know he enjoys your and Felix's company, and I do want him to relax with friends more often. It's good for him. And with me so busy and spending less time with him these incoming weeks, he'll need it more than usual.
