I'm sorry Geralt ily

[admjralbenbow]

Is so funny to me how every single ship with Yennefer is great un this season

Do you like Yennefer and Tissaia? Fantastic.

Yennefer with Triss? Amazing.

Yenna and Istredd? Lovely.

Yennefer with Fringilla enemies-to-lovers? Great!

My god, we even had this whatever-the-fuck-was-happening-there between her and Cahir.

And dont even talk abt Yennskier being the best thing of the s2.

-every single ship but Yenralt cause wtf is that?? they look like a tired couple who just still together bc of the children and to have sex besides they hate each other ass and call it "love".

[kashilascorner]

my conclusion after finishing the witcher season 2 is that they had a very clear storyline which is overall ok but the writing (especially on an episode basis) is weak at best

Real talk, why the fuck they did what they did to the season 2 of Netflix's The Witcher?

THE WITCHER NETFLIX SEASON 2 SPOILERS BELOW

Showrunner calls this show a book adaptation. It is not. S02E01 is ok-ish. Not remarkable, not monstrous. I liked Geralt's fight against Vereena, very well done.

But from episode 2 onwards... oh my fucking GOD.

Why, just WHY would Eskel bring hookers to a remote location in the mountains, such as Kaer Morhen, right after Geralt says that KM is secluded? How Vesemir agrees this? Why Ciri assists to this shitshow?

What the fuck was the relevance of the Voleth Meir plot? What about monoliths' one?

Why is Cahir portrayed as a fanatical villain? Why are Fringilla's and Stregobor's roles more relevant than in the books? Why the Brotherhood's fugitive after Sodden is Yennefer and NOT Triss? Why is Yen captured by Nilfgaard at all after she scorched 20 thousand Nilfgaardians out of existence??? Why the fuck does everyone think she is dead? Why does she need to prove her loyalty to the North after winning at Sodden?

Why is Francesca with the Scoia'tael? Why the "elves populating Cintra" plot exists? Why the FUCK she is pregnant? Why are the elves taught ordinary army tactics and not special commando tactics, since they are knowledgeable of the Northern terrain?

Why is Cahir such an omnipresent character? In the books, after the Fall of Cintra, he returns to Nilfgaard but he is immediately arrested. Then we don't see him for another 2 books.

Why Lydia van Bredevoort even sniffs the vial of elder blood? In the books she is depicted as a smart and cunning sorceress.

Why the fuck did they do Vilgefortz x Tissaia a thing?

Why Nenneke drops f-bombs?

Why does Emhyr state to Fringilla and Cahir the fact that Ciri is his daughter? Also, why is he appearing so soon?

Why Ciri's and Geralt stop at Shaerrawedd is cut from the show? This was a BIG scene in BoE and possibly one of the best in the entire book series.

Why Yennefer lost her magic? After Sodden, in the books, she goes blind for a while and needs to recover for some time, that's all. Why does Yennefer want to sacrifice Ciri? Are we fucking kidding here?

Should I continue? Maybe. I don't want it. There are so many fuck-ups in the show that my interest in it is almost zero at this point. I wanted (as many other Witcher book readers) an adaptation that would make sense and be in line with the atmosphere of the books, but we've got this abomination... just dissappointed.

Excerpt from Chapter 5 of Long Story (Written Pre-Season 2):

After numerous speeches had been held by both kings and sorcerers to honour the fallen mages, the last to speak was King Foltest. By the end of his powerfully eloquent oration, several Temerian guards entered the hall, in their midst a prisoner. 

Triss Merigold had to look twice before she recognised the man. He was still wearing the typical Nilfgaardian striped uniform trousers and the same black shirt, however, after many weeks spent in a dungeon cell, his hair was considerably longer and he had grown a big, bushy beard. Having been rather on the slender side to begin with, he now looked decidedly emaciated. And sick.

"Today we shall not only honour the memory of our fallen brothers and sisters, mages and humans alike, and form a lasting alliance with the Aen Seidhe, the People of the Hills, against the Nilfgaardian aggressor," King Foltest concluded his speech, "but also see justice done. Bring forth the prisoner!"

The guards walked the Nilfgaardian toward the head of the hall where King Foltest was standing. Adjacent to the monument there was a wooden platform, on it a shrouded, mysterious cuboidal structure that was now revealed as an executioner's block. 

"This here," King Foltest pointed an accusing finger at the shackled man, "is the Nilfgaardian commander who led the attack on Sodden Hill and thus is responsible for the deaths of the heroes we have gathered to commemorate. However, this is not all. He also killed our fellow ruler, King Eist of Cintra!" 

'Murderer!' 'Death to the king-slayer!' and similar angry shouts rang through the hall. Foltest turned towards the prisoner.

"In my authority as King of Temeria, Pontaria and Mahakam and Prince of Sodden, I, Foltest the first, sentence you, Cahir Mawr Dyffryn aep Ceallach, to death by beheading!" 

On this clue, a tall, bulky, bare-chested man entered the room, his face covered with a pointed black hood with only slits for the eyes, in his hands a heavy axe. The executioner stepped onto the podium. The prisoner, who had drawn himself up proudly, followed, accompanied by two guards. 

"Any last words, Nilfgaardian?"

"I'm not a Nilfgaardian. I'm from Vicovaro," the condemned man said hoarsely and with difficulty, trying to suppress a dry cough.

"Well, that won't change anything. Kneel!"

The prisoner went down on his knees and put his head on the executioner's block on his own accord. A guard parted his longish curls so the executioner would better see where to hit.

"Headsman, proceed!" shouted King Foltest. The executioner raised his axe. 

"Wait, Your Majesty! I have a proposition to make," Vilgefortz of Roggeveen intervened just seconds before the axe fell. Not a little surprised, King Foltest motioned the executioner to halt. Knowing the cunning sorcerer well, this might be worth listening to although the timing was quite annoying. Well, it was common knowledge that mages loved dramatic entrances, and Vilgefortz was no exception, on the contrary.

"I usually adhere to the motto 'business before pleasure'. Why not let us begin our peace negotiations first and have the execution after dinner, as just deserts, so to say, the blood of the common enemy sealing the pact. Highly symbolic. And it is going to be a lot more dramatic in the dark."

An approving murmur went through the crowd, some even clapped in consent.

"You are not wrong there, Vilgefortz. Symbolism is important. And it seems most of our revered guests approve. So be it then," said King Foltest consenting to the sorcerer's proposition. "Let the historical peace talks between elves and men commence!" He gave a sign to the executioner and guards to withdraw to one of the adjoining rooms with the prisoner. The headsman would not mind as he earned good coin for his services. 

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... 

The negotiations were dragging on. It would be far from easy to reach an agreement as there were diametrically opposing interests between the different factions. Naturally, the elves demanded an independent elven kingdom of Dol Blathanna, which the Northern kings, especially the rulers of Aedirn and Kaedwen, could not possibly agree to. The Brotherhood of Sorcerers did their best to mediate, but so far to no avail. 

Feeling an upcoming headache behind her temples, Triss Merigold decided to take a break. Some fresh air would do her good. Excusing herself politely, she left the hall. There was a shortcut to the terrace from one of the siderooms. Coincidentally it turned out to be the same sideroom where they were holding the Nilfgaardian prisoner. He was slumped against the far wall, eyes closed, a hacking cough wracking his body. He seemed to be feverish again. Damn Vilgefortz, it would have been more merciful to let the execution proceed as planned. It might still be hours before the negotiations concluded, if they concluded at all today. This was only prolonging the prisoner's suffering. Anyway, weren't the condemned entitled to some comfort on the day of their execution? A last meal, some wine? This prisoner had obviously not had either, not even a simple drink of water. Determined the sorceress left the palace and walked the short way to her home. 

Returning with her medical bag, she entered the sideroom again and approached the prisoner. Knowing the chestnut-haired sorceress the guards let her proceed. What was the man's name again? Foltest had mentioned it. Cahir something? From Vicovaro, not Nilfgaard.

She hunkered down in front of the young man, who was still coughing painfully, and picked a vial from her bag. A magical linctus that would help alleviate the acute bronchitis that he had contracted in the cold and damp dungeons. Another one against the fever. And, considering what was to come, a strong pain-killer. If the executioner was good, death by beheading was supposed to be quick and rather painless, but who knew? Nobody who was executed could ever tell the tale. And it was not uncommon that the headsman had to strike twice or even three times ...

"Cahir?" The prisoner blinked, then opened his bleary eyes. "Drink," she ordered with a distinct sense of déjà-vu. Since his hands were shackled behind his back, she had to hold the vials to his lips. After he had swallowed the three potions, she produced a flask of wine from her bag and a glass. Usually she would not recommend taking wine together with magic potions and definitely not on a presumably empty stomach, but this here called for an exception. A surprised look appeared on the Nilfgaardian's, no, Vicovarian's face.

"Why are you doing this?" he rasped.

"I guess I'm an idiot. Now drink before I change my mind." 

"Est est," the prisoner said after a few sips looking even more surprised since it was an excellent and very expensive wine. Surely not something you would waste on an enemy prisoner. They had on very rare and special occasions enjoyed it in Darn Dyffra, his family's castle, the last time when he was bestowed the title of count by the Emperor. But that seemed a lifetime ago.

"You know your wines. Drink up, I don't have all day." 

"Thank you," the prisoner, having drained the glass to the last drop, offered, his voice sounding a little less raspy and strained. "I remember you," he continued hesitantly. "From Sodden Hill. The dungeons."

"You better do. I spent hours of my life patching up your sorry arse although my hands were itching to strangle you. Mind that." 

"I understand." The prisoner said softly, a dejected look in his eyes.

"I need to go." Triss stood up. "Good luck with the execution," she added, not mockingly but actually meaning it. The Vicovarian followed her with his gaze as she left but did not say anything. What was there to say?

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

When Triss joined the convening lords and ladies, mages and elves again, it seemed there had been no substantial progress. She sighed. Would they ever come to an agreement? She really hoped they would, it was vital to prevent another elven uprising or the possibility of the elves collaborating with Nilfgaard against the Northern kingdoms. Rumour had it that already bands of dissatisfied young Aen Seidhe had formed, so-called Scoia'tael commandos, attacking human caravans and outposts, spreading discord and terror in Aedirn and Kaedwen. The elves fighting a guerrilla war against the North would certainly play into Nilfgaard's hands. Who knew, the Empire might even be encouraged to launch another attack on the Northern kingdoms and they would have to fight on two fronts at the same time. 

It was getting late. Dusk was falling and candles, torches and big braziers were lit inside the hall. The discussion got more heated. Fierce arguments arose. Triss looked over to Vilgefortz. He was sitting back in his high chair, a sneer playing around his lips, and did nothing. What was he waiting for? He had arranged this convention. Why was he not interfering, coming up with a feasible solution? He had not given up the hope of finding a compromise, had he? Actually, the powerful mage had not said anything for a while, had let the other participants rile each other up, even insults could be heard now. This seemed to get out of hand and their leader did nothing? He had even disappeared from the hall for quite a while in spite of the ever increasing turmoil. What was he up to? Did he have some cunning plan B? Triss really hoped he had. But as the situation was getting more and more tumultuous, doubt was creeping in. 

Suddenly a guard came into the room. "The prisoner! He is gone!" the man shouted agitatedly. Triss could not believe her ears. How was it possible? There had been at least six guards in the room with the condemned man. And more guards in the hallways and corridors! Together with king Foltest and some others she rushed into the sideroom. The guards as well as the executioner were lying deep asleep in one corner and there was not a trace of their prisoner. More sleeping guards were adorning the corridors. This must be the work of a mage and a very powerful one to boot, there was no other possible explanation.

On waking up, some guards remembered having seen the prisoner being rushed through the corridors by a dark, hooded figure before they had blacked out. Others reported having caught glimpses of the two men mounting a white horse and galloping through the castle gate. Then they seemed to have disappeared. Probably by portal. 

The news of the escape of the Nilfgaardian commander did not help the already extremely tense atmosphere in the great hall. Now accusations were thrown into each other's faces. There must be a traitor among the mages who had facilitated the escape, an inside-man or -woman working for Nilfgaard, but who? Mistrust was growing like a cancer, most of all directed against the elven mages. Had they been siding with Nilfgaard all along and this gathering was just a farce to hood-wink and deceive the Northern kingdoms? Or, were there other parties who would profit from these obviously dead-end negotiations? And if so, who? Already the first groups of guests were leaving the great hall, agitated, affronted, angry and disillusioned, the elven delegation, unsurprisingly, one of the first. 

There was no way of sugarcoating it, the well-intended peace talks had failed spectacularly.

the witcher, obviously

saqfaserghqwfsdsfefafgh obviously but like... tv show, books or games? or in general? i’m going with general

my all-time ultimate fave character: yennefer of vengerberg

a character I didn’t used to like but now do: cahir (sorry dude, i just can’t learn your whole ass posh name)

a character I used to like but now don’t: triss merigold (i still like her in the show but not in the books and the games)

a character I’m indifferent about: so many lol

a character who deserved better: renfri

a ship I’ve never been able to get into: geralt x triss (i know it’s a big deal in the game fandom and every one of yous is so wrong, fight me)

a ship I’ve never been able to get over: YENSKIER... also geralt x yennefer

a cute, low-key ship: eist x calanthe but they’re canon and so not low-key, i love those kinky grandparents

an unpopular ship but I still enjoyed it: YENSKIER

a ship that was totally wrong and never should have happened: i encountered some very disturbing pedo ships whilst searching on ao3

my favourite storyline/moment: yennefer’s legacy - the battle of sodden

a storyline that never should have been written: some nasty things that happen to ciri at the end of time of contempt :))))

my first thoughts on the show: SO CAMPY

my thoughts now: SO FUCKING ICONIQUE

[bettsfic]

I think I'd like to write something Witcher related. I've only seen the show and I doubt I'll ever get into the show beyond the netflix show. But was wondering what ship to write. I don't have many thoughts beyond wanting Geralt to be on the bottom. I'd quite like to know your thoughts on Witcher ships if you have any. x

one of the many things i love about this show is that, of the ample geralt sex scenes, women are always on top, and the direction makes it very clear they’re basically just using his body and he is totally into that. so even though it’s not “bottoming” i def think canon supports the idea that geralt is happy to please.

i’m def drawn to the angst of yennefer/geralt. theirs is a relationship of high highs and low lows, on again off again kind of deal. there’s a lot you can do with that fic-wise, both canon and au. i like the idea of geralt being aware of the toxicity of their relationship but pursuing yennefer as a self-harm/comfort kind of deal. and i like yennefer as someone who has extreme emotions but keeps her cards close and doesn’t let anyone in, even though she needs someone to love her in order to heal from the ways she’s been hurt. so their relationship is great for angsty one-shots and potentially a recovery/healing slow-burn.

obvs i love renfri/geralt too, in part because we’re given so little about them, but just enough that i’m interested in exploring it more. renfri is a princess turned bandit, a badass, not necessarily good aligned, and likes putting geralt in tough moral situations while messing with his head and heart. again, angst, but i like the idea that he’s soft for her despite not wanting to be, because he’s a romantic at heart and drowns himself daily in respect women juice. a lot of their canonical relationship happens after she dies – he welds her brooch to his sword. he thinks about her while he’s on the brink of death. she’s a person he carries with him always, even if their time together was brief. also i’m dying for a good fix-it where renfri lives. (which i am trying to write myself and have 2k words done, but wow is it hard)

geralt/jaskier is probably most conducive to fic-writing, because they have a good chemistry and great banter, and enough sincere admiration for one another that their relationship is easy to pick up and expand on. and they have a really classic slash dynamic that i think a lot of fan writers are drawn to. i definitely ship it but i haven’t read or written any fic for them yet. it’s probably only a matter of time though. i’m sure by now fanon has been established of their relationship and begun speaking back to itself in the way that good ships do.

of course there’s geralt/ciri which i think would be more popular were we not living in the era of anti. (my god, they are each other’s DESTINY, and we have a parallel Law of Surprise in which both parties get MARRIED) so, while i would love to comment further on that ship, i’m waiting to see how the fandom shakes out purity-wise. you would think that a show with canon incest, infant death, age gap, non con, dub con, and which centers entirely around moral ambiguity would drive away the purity police, but i thought similarly of kylux and look how that turned out.

lastly i think geralt/original character is a totally valid ship. one thing that’s great about this verse is how sprawling it is – geralt has lived a long time and has come into contact with a lot of people. his adventures are conducive to episodic storytelling. he’s a character who is reluctant to love but it always manages to find him. he’s not supposed to have feelings and yet he’s quick to divisive loyalty, and he’s very earnest in his relationships. it might be very fun to make the character you want to see him with and craft a believable story around them. 

did i miss any ships? geralt/calanthe/eist where geralt is the guest star? geralt/cahir noncon? geralt/triss unrequited pining? geralt/doppler who has taken the form of someone geralt loves?? the possibilities are endless

All the fandom questions for The Witcher!

Going based on the Show only because I have read exactly one chapter of the books and finished the tutorial of Wild Hunt. 

1. The first character I fell in love with: Renfri

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Yennefer (Don’t even get me started on how much I love Mage Wife, but I will say it didn’t happen until the second time I watched), Eist (poor man just wanted to love a badass and raise a sassy granddaughter and deserved to dammit), Moussack

3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t: N/A? I can’t think of anyone

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Does Valdo count? No but seriously, either because there isn’t any or because I have carefully tailored my dash to not have any, I haven’t seen any character hate. 

5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Renfri. I mean I still think she’s great, but at least the show version of her is...kind of one note/generic/blank-slate because she is only in the one episode. :/

6. The character I would totally smooch: Yes? Seriously, there are so many characters I am in love with on this show that I don’t know what to do with myself. Top 3: Jaskier, Yennefer...maybe Moussack?

7. The character I’d want to be like: Triss and her plant mage badassery I think. I dunno, there are lots of little bits of lots of characters I’d like to emulate more than this is any one character.

8. The character I’d slap: Stregobitch. Although he deserves more than a slap. Also Cahir because he’s got that whole malicious villainy thing shtick but he doesn’t even do it well and that offends me. 

9. A pairing that I love: Calenthe x Eist, Jaskier x some goddamn respect

10. A pairing that I despise: Despise is a strong word but I’m not a fan of Yennefer x Tissaia so that one I guess. Also I’ve seen some weird Jaskier x future!Ciri that like...hard nah.
