Geralt's age when things happen (based on Netflix)

Age 27: Beginning of the Great Cleansing, elves are slaughtered by humans

Age 32: Yennefer is born

Age 53: Renfri is born

Age 62: Jaskier is born

Age 71: Butcher of Blaviken. Renfri is killed by Geralt at age 18 (18! she deserved better)

Age 80: Meets Jaskier(18) and captured by elves while hunting for the Devil of Posada. "Toss A Coin To Your Witcher" composed.

Age 83: Breaks the Striga Curse. (The Striga is 14-years-old.) Meets Triss Merigold.

Age 89: Claims Law of Surprise (I'll accept his stupidity charges on count of being old).

Age 90: Ciri is born

Age 96: Becomes master of the Djinn. Meets Yennefer.

Age 102: Dragon Hunt. Breaks up with Yennefer and Jaskier on the mountain.

Age 103: Cintra falls at the hand of Nilfgaard. Meets Ciri(13).

Notes: Interesting how Geralt runs into two different teens(Renfri and Jaskier) who both inadverdently cement his public persona. Renfri's death makes him the Butcher of Blaviken and Jaskier's song makes him the hero Witcher.

Jaskier: Sure is dark in here.

Geralt:

Jaskier: I’m not scared or anything.

Geralt:

Jaskier: I mean, who’s scared of the dark these days? Not me.

Geralt: Do you want me to hold your hand?

Jaskier: Yes, please.

my kink is people being nice to gruff characters who seem mean and cold but are actually very soft and need love

Please stop and read this.

I’m doing a project on gay rights in today’s society.

So if you believe that same sex couples should be allowed to get married, please reblog this.

This would be a lot of help, thank you.

Man, I really hate shippy fics/posts that are exploring jealousy with Geralt at the moment, because they’re all way off the mark. Geralt is not a man that gets violent or angrily jealous. He’s not a possessive man. He isn’t above demonstrating some displeasure with people after his love, but he considers his SO’s interest in someone else ‘their right’, and the moment there’s significant competition? He bows out, because that just confirms he isn’t good enough for them. 

We have a canon example of this, where Istredd is pursuing Yennefer and he goes on a diatribe about how little Geralt can offer Yennefer, and not only does Geralt not argue against this (his argument to remain with Yenenfer is simply ‘Yennefer wants him’), when he finds out they have an equal chance to be with Yennefer, he immediately forfeits because he doesn’t perceive it as an equal chance; he just sees it as validating Istredd’s insistence that he is too inhuman to offer Yennefer anything.

And:

He doesn’t get angry. He doesn’t try to get back at Yen. He behaves despondently, tells Yennefer he won’t get in her way, internalises and repeats the things Istredd said about him, and the incident is so damaging that he attempts suicide later in the story. 

People who portray Geralt as this alpha male whose response to jealousy is to get angry and fight for who he’s with are completely off the mark. He’s a man who has been abused so badly throughout his life that he’s quick to accept that he isn’t worth being with, and he’s such a depressed, self-loathing wreck that he would rather court death than deal with losing one of the few people who treat him like a human being (this isn’t even the only time he decides death would be better than dealing with loss). I realise him being depressed and self-loathing will make Geralt less palatable for a lot of people, but that’s who he is.

WHEN A CHARACTER GETS WOUNDED AND THEY GO TO THEIR LOVE INTEREST FOR HELP AND WHILE THEY’RE GETTING THEIR INJURIES CLEANED AND PATCHED UP THEY FLINCH FROM THE STING OF THE ANTISEPTIC AND THEIR LOVE INTEREST SAYS “HOLD STILL” IN AN EXASPERATED BUT TOUCHINGLY CONCERNED TONE OF VOICE AND THEN THEY ACCIDENTALLY MAKE EYE CONTACT OR BRUSH HANDS AND JUST FREEZE IN THAT POSITION UNTIL THE TENSION IN THE ROOM IS NEARLY UNBERABLE BEFORE BOTH LOOKING AWAY AND PRETENDING THE UNSPOKEN THING THAT JUST PASSED BETWEEN THEM NEVER HAPPENED

I’m really proud of this.

[shutup-sorry]

As a women in the film industry... I’m angry. I’m shocked and I’m angry.

5 women in 92 years have been nominated for best director and only one has won.

And this year full of amazing movies directed by women (Little Women, The Farewell, Portrait of Lady On Fire, Booksmart, just to name a few) it is ridiculous that they couldn’t nominated a single one of them for Best Director.

And the fact that only one person of color is nominated in each acting category is astounding. Lupita Nyong’o, Awkwafina, Eddie Murphy, the entire cast of Parasite, Jennifer Lopez, EVEN BEYONCÉ got snubbed.

It’s ridiculous and the Academy needs to do better. I’m so tired of seeing the same white people win over and over again.
