#ciri was there for a second

[thinkgazer]

Came across this HUGE rolling promo quite accidentally. Wait for the end. Istg I have never come so close to irrationally losing my mind in such a public space.

Geralt is the type of kid that fights his tiredness quietly but falls asleep eventually - Jaskier can not keep his eyes open and is cuddling up to people, but he is not tired and he is not whining, 'cause he is not going to sleep yet.

[hanzajesthanza]

geralt is also a most real depiction of good quality fatherhood and great girldad representation because EVEN THOUGH witchers don’t even experience aging at the same rate as non-GMO humans, EVEN THOUGH it would be “biologically impossible,”

geralt having had been raising a pre-teen girl for maybe a few months to a year already “gave the impression of having aged,” his “face slashed by wrinkles.” the emotional toll on this man from raising she-devil ciri

and this is only the very beginning of the saga. BEFORE everything goes to shit. the wrinkles have set in

hm. thinking about Geralt, Eskel and Lambert watching Vesemir doting on Ciri like the granddaughter he never had, going easy on her during her training when she asks for it politely, making a show of lecturing her when she's being mouthy when it's obvious to everyone he's already forgiven her. Lifting her off her feet and spinning her around when he sees her again for the first time in years. And all the while Vesemir's sons in every way except blood are watching and watching and thinking, so you were capable of being affectionate and considerate and a decent fucking human being all this time. You just chose not to be this man with us.

"I'm tired of you still tied to me" aka Cirilla's aquamarine nightmare.

they were insane for this

Izzy took one look at Cirie and said ‘That’s mother!”

the downside to being a longtime inhabitant of a fandom (so to speak) is that when a new season drops you get to see absolute randos doing their live blogging who have the worst fucking takes in the known universe

Melissa and Taran are not slick quickly brushing off the email hack that allows people to vote (basically) an unlimited amount of times because they know the America stans are the rabid ones 💀💀💀💀

This new witcher season gotta be my favorite so far... that being said as much as i loved every single character development i will still be trowing hands with any bastard that keeps trying to insert Jaskier in a dynamic where he does NOT belong

There is something so inherently sad about how things ended after the Battle of Kaer Morhen (and not for the obvious reason)

Spoilers for The Witcher 3:Wild Hunt

I thought about Kaer Morhen for a little longer than I should have and now I'm sad.

Anyway, that got me thinking:

After Vesemir dies, all of the Wolf Witchers leave Kaer Morhen and decide never to go back.(At least that's what Eskel tells Geralt. Lambert doesn't say that he'd never return, but with how much Lam openly admits his disdain for the place, I don't think he would).

And I think that is the last we ever see of Eskel and Lambert in the game. I have tried looking to see if you can find them in game, just hanging around or whatever (I know Lambert seems to hang out at the Nowhere Inn and I'm pretty sure we've only ever seen Eskel at Kaer Morehen, but yknow) but I haven't seen them. And as far as I'm aware, we don't see Lambert and Eskel in the Blood and Wine DLC either (but I've only done the main story so far, so I have many side mission left)

And there's a bit of an implication that Geralt, Eskel and Lambert will never see each other again.

Finding other witchers on the path is very rare, so it's not likely they'll ever really cross paths again, which sucks.

I'd like to believe they'd try and make some way to see each other since they're like the only family they have.

Or maybe I'm just overthinking such a small aspect (most likely).

In my ideal world, Eskel and Lambert stay at Corvo Bianco during winter.

[boundlss]

it genuinely does amaze me how collectively wrong people at large are always about cahir. i have a lot more to say about this than in that post even but i'm not here to flood my rp mutuals dash with complaints and common misconceptions.

[vulpinesaint]

people who write kidfics and treat the children like a doll are so like. impenetrable to me. it obviously feeds into the larger phenomenon of people not seeing children as full people but like??? do you not see this child as a character of their own??? do you not think that they have their own motivations???? you sit down to write and all this child appears to do in your story is look cute and do nonsense baby things for the sake of your 'found family' dynamic which is just a nuclear family redux with adoptees? now come on now...

[lesbianladyeboshi]

So yall are telling me the first lgbtq character and relationship actually portrayed in Netflix Witcher is Eredin? King Of The Wild Hunt Ereden Breacc Glass?

HE?

[bookcalanthedaily]

even though her father was the monstrous urcheon of erlenwald, queen calanthe seemed to adore her first granddaughter as soon as she laid eyes on her. she was a doting grandmother, always eager to help princess pavetta with caring for the infant.
