#cahir used to work for the equivalent of the brotherhood of evil mutants and now wants to be good

[eskel-loves-lilbleater]

Eskel works as a park ranger but is actually a stupidly over powered superhero that doesn’t want the abilities, he just wants to be around animals. Lambert is a genius engineer that supplies Geralt with gadgets and might be building a powered suit. Aiden is a somewhat goofy anti-hero who takes jobs for pay (a la Deadpool) until he meets Lambert and falls for him.

The new supervillain is Stregobor.

Geralt & Jaskier. "I think my roommate MIGHT be my Superhero arch-rival, but the hero is extremely likeable, and my roommate is the grumpiest person I've ever met." VS "There's a chance my roommate is actually my Supervillain nemesis, except my roommate is an actual ball of sunshine, and the Supervillain is a cackling megalomaniac complete with Evil Monologues and possibly a Villain Song."

Aka, Roommates with a twist!

Ok so how about: Geralt as the extremely serious, grimdark superhero with a tragic backstory and a lot of Various Guilt who dresses only in dark colours and grumbles everything...

Who moves to a new city and - because he exists within the genre - is immediately thrust into "new city with new problems", and he's starting to suspect his hot roommate Jaskier (because being a superhero never really paid that well) might also be Dandelion, the villain he's been roped into defeating, but--

But he's a Literal Disney Villain, who is wildly over the top, completely mad, the single most queer-coded person in the world with an incredible wardrobe that Geralt is 99.9% sure he made himself, complete with capes, and yeah he's pretty sure that Jask is the supervillain but he's also... not that effective, you know?

Like it's actually kinda nice that the fight-of-the-week is centred around a really convoluted plot involving coating all the statues in the city with glittery paint, because no one actually gets hurt, and Dandelion isn't after money or power but he's making a point - and as Geralt is wrestling an extremely glittery Dandelion into a pair of handcuffs that he knows he will 1) escape from and 2) leave hanging on his door handle he realises that he only targeted statues of... slave owners, of colonialisers, of people who deserve it...

and, aw shit. Is the supervillain... right?? And then this all falls apart rather spectacularly when the universe dumps an orphaned, superpowered child on his doorstep - literally - and suddenly he and his definitely-not-my-arch-nemesis roommate have a ward.

And his ex-girlfriend - an absurdly powerful ex-super who moved into law in order to get superheroes (and some villains) out of difficult situations, because you know the government doesn't give a shit about any of them - is back in his life, and suddenly being a Superhero and beating people up for a living isn't enough (it was never enough, really) and he's trying to juggle all of it, as well as his growing feelings for Jaskier, and--

And, well. This is the perfect time for a new Supervillain to attempt to take over the city, seeing as the hero is busy and the current Supervillain a little lackluster, and this one-- this one does want money and power, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to get it.

This beautiful modern take on the boys is by Sayuri527

Don’t the boys look gorgeous?  I really love how Eskel looks and the way the artist echoed his usual armor in the shirt he’s wearing.

There is a ton more gorgeous work by the artist, all sorts of fandoms. Just be warned, some of it is beautifully naughty.

Absolutely sweet and beautiful image of our favourite Goat Dad, that I can’t find the original artist for.  But look at that gorgeous little goat face!

Edit:  A big thank you to @ana-kagetsu for messaging me and pointing me in the direction of this awesome artist.  Please go check out their other great art on DeviantArt!

Get your Tumblr 2021 Year in Review →

Just a HUGE thank you to everyone that has followed and commented this year. I started this a year ago (anniversary popped up earlier this week!) because I kept seeing awesome Eskel art and wanted to collate it all in one place for my and other people's enjoyment. You've all been really awesome and I can't thank you all enough for loving this character as much as I do, as well as putting up with the other random bits thrown in. Onto a new year and hopefully more amazing art and stories from everyone!! <3

BTW, it's really awesome to see which images were everyone's faves this year. I totally don't blame ANYONE for that number 1! *wipes chin*
