so glad to see my little geralt of rivia post getting notes. i am the world's most average witcher lore understander (two seasons of the netflix show and three of the books and a bunch of time spent gleaning real lore from what people use in fanfiction) but i Do consider myself more correct than most people when it comes to understanding geralt of rivia. this is because i want to put him in a centrifuge and spin him around and my judgement is therefore unclouded by things like liking him as a character

#i do love him don't get me wrong. but like. in a way where i am using him to play croquet like the flamingos in alice in wonderland #care very deeply about him. many opinions about him being a good man and a desperate disillusioned romantic #and someone who is trying so so hard to be good at all times in a world where even he can't believe it of himself #but also he's FAKING HIS STUPID ACCENT!!!!!#man who rocks up to the function in an 'i love rivia' shirt when he's never actually lived there in his life #'yeah i'm jared from new york' says jared in a very distinct new york accent. nd then u find out he was adopted as a baby and raised in ohi #and you ask him how he developed a new york accent in cincinnati and he goes 'oh my foster dad said i was adopted from new york...#so i taught myself the accent to feel like i had more of a connection. a sense of belonging y'know' like. man. what #<— geralt of rivia simulator #anyway i am the correctest about him of all time until i'm face to face with someone who's finished the books. then i'll defer #soon though... someday... i will be the one who has finished the books...#and watched more gameplay maybe. not even cause i'm interested in the games i just want to be the arbiter of information #and because aiden is mentioned in the games <3 my darling who does not actually appear anywhere in the franchise <3 #will not be watching season 3 of the show anytime soon. as soon as i went near the books i was so disillusioned with the show #season 2 really took it out of me... killed off any passion i had for it...#made me write like five different fics to try and fix it...#crazy. anyway. netflix writers don't understand geralt. but i do. let it be known.#valentine notes #the witcher
