Look, look... plot bunny has bitten me. We all know Jaskier is a man of many talents, he graduated top of his class for the 7 liberal arts.

We also know he would basically do anything to help ease the path for Geralt. So what if instead of teaching each winter, he decided to learn a trade.

Healing from the best healers he knows to make sure that when Geralt is wounded he can help stitch him, carry and make salves, mix the herbs Geralt will need for potions.

New HC though would be a leathersmith? Jask learnt how to tan hides properly from geralt, he'd have to for extra money to trade or sell. But what if one day Geralt's armour was nearly destroyed beyond repair and Jask just thought 'huh I should learn how to fix that' and he does. He spends several winters with many leathersmiths till his own reputation under another name began to proceed him?

Just picture witchers clamouring to get their sword caloused hands on these leather pieces that are Witcher durable and finding one was like finding a dragon... and geralt just... comes home with a WHOLE SET of Julek Armour and his brothers are just 'Geralt where the fuck did you get your hands on a WHOLE SET!?'

Geralt is just confused and mutters. "My bard??"

Been feeling the 'Jaskier upset with Geralt' angst train lately if this prompt interests you

I read the word 'angst' and instantly went on board- honestly Jaskier deserves to be angry with Geralt. What always makes me go *chef's kiss* in those scenarios is that Jaskier is upset, but he doesn't want Geralt to be hurt! He always looks out for him 🥺🥺 I made Jaskier and angry-crier, because I haven't tormented my man enough. Also Jaskier being able to actually show how upset he is and Geralts self worth issues of 'distancing himself when he thinks he isn't wanted' FIGHT-

#geraskier #jaskier #geralt of rivia #the witcher #geralt x jaskier #me sitting back here and thinking about scenarios with them actually having a row #I can see it being not easy to navigate because I see Geralt being very very bad at those if he doesn't have the security #that the other one will come back / that he is wanted?#it's me thinking back to the book scene with yen and istredd again and ofc his mum #listen their relationship (if you take it as friendship or more) has always the potential for bone deep devotion but also for being SO messy #that's what I'm here forrrrr #will Jaskier defend Geralt? alwaysalwaysalways #will geralt sit with his bare ass on a nest of scorpions for Jaskier? doesn't even have to think about for a sec #do they have healthy communication skills? HELL NO #but do they better with each other than anyone else because they do have a profound understanding of each other? hell yeah!!#look at me after all that time #still invested 😔

I think a drink for the quicking pain

Will set us both to rights again

A brew for a bob better do the job

And if not we'll repeat the refrain:

A splash and a shot and a pint or two!

Three fingers for me and four for you!

A sip for each sorrow he put us through

And a toast to every ex we knew!

Was drawing Jaskier in my ren faire doublet when I tried to exaggerate his pose. Switching back and forth between the layers made it look like he was dancing. One thing led to another and I decided he needed someone to boogie with. Yen's straight vibin'

Geralt, sharpening his sword:

Jaskier, sneaking up on him from behind and jumping onto him and hugging him: HII

Geralt, who definitely sensed His Bard but didn’t want to stop him because he secretly likes it: *grunts*

#later geralt: you know you can just ask me for a hug right?#geralt: you don’t have to try to surprise me #jaskier (happy): well yes but it’s fun #Geralt is the lion dad to jaskier’s play-hunting skills #just goes with it #(bc he likes getting hugged by jaskier)#based on an interaction between my friend and i #Her hugs started with me doing my best to wiggle out of them to now actually liking it when she hugs me #✨character growth✨#incorrect witcher quotes #geralt x jaskier #geraskier #geralt of rivia #jaskier #the witcher incorrect quotes #the witcher netflix

You get so used to having Kaidan around with one character as her follower/lover/husband that it's weirdly jarring the way he speaks to you when you're playing as someone else with no intention of bringing him along for that journey.

Even that arguably platonic, "It's good to see you," sounds mildly come-hither and it's kind of amusing.

#skyrim #kaidan #kaidan 2.0 #kaidan mod #especially when you're playing as a big straight nordmer man but no judgement #Aurvandil is the one character I have who has both the skill and patience to train Lucien Flavius up as a battlemage #so we're going for it #plus he's a loner and definitely needs a friend for his character development #cue skyrim jaskier

no more giving jaskier weapons i think he should pull a laurent of vere and kill a man with a chair

#let! him! be! competent!#killing a man with a chair doesn't require him to have fighting skills! it just requires him to be feral!#which is already in character!#me : writes a silly little post #me in the tags : gets heated about the writing of jaskier's character again #the witcher

If the Netflix people weren't cowards they'd give us a musical episode. Everyone is singing. Why? A curse or something, I dunno. But Jaskier is the only one having a good time.

#joey's musical skills have been criminally underutilized is all I'm saying #oh and madeleine hyland plays the fae who cursed them all for a laugh obviously #the witcher #the witcher netflix #jaskier

If Tommy fell into the Witcher universe I feel he would become a spoken-word bard.

#what other transferable skills does he have apart from all the poetry he knows and rich women sex #Eventually he would hear about Ciri and the portals and beg Geralt on his knees for a way to get back home #Geralt points at ciri like ask her man idek #He would hear through jaskier of course

not my best work but I’ve been feeling out my Jaskier/Dandelion for a fic // the cane is a mobility aid

.

It has been titled “Time in Disguise” but now might be “Varieties of Exile” after two very good songs

#can you tell I study costumes for a living? bc my drawing skills don’t seem to reflect that anymore #Jaskier #dandelion #geraskier #it’s a little Netflix it’s a little Witcher 3

Ok but Jaskier is competent actually.

Quick allegory time. I did not think I was flexible as a kid. But one day in HS I had a friend stay overnight so they saw me get ready the next morning and they suddenly yelled "WHOA YOU'RE REALLY FLEXIBLE" because I'd put my foot up onto the kitchen counter, with other foot still on the floor, to tie my laces. This apparently is very flexible and a very not normal thing to do. And I had no idea because my mother was always more flexible than me.

That. But with Geralt and Jaskier. Geralt is always so skilled and competent that both he and Jaskier think Jaskier is incompetent. But he's not. He's just permanently playing catch-up with a literal mutant designed to be-good-at-shit. He's with Geralt almost all year, every year, and has been since he was 18.

He has no idea how very not normal the skills he's inevitably developed are.

I want to read a fanfic where Geralt and Jaskier are separated for whatever reason and Jaskier has to deal with humans going "WHOA HOW CAN YOU DO THAT!?" and Geralt has to cope with humans that are so much worse at everything than his human "why can't you do this? Jaskier does this all the time!"

They both have a little more respect for one another when they reunite.

I don't know if anyone already came up with this but wouldn't it be funny if it went a little like this in Witcher S3:

Yennefer and the Witchers are teaching Citi how to fight and use her powers but she can't quiet get the hang of it, especially not about the screaming/voice thing. Jaskier relucrantly sticks around at Kaer Morhen for the rest of winter but everyone is pretty much indifferent to him (he's just a prissy bard to most) and vice versa (cause, yes he's still kinda pissed at Geralt).

Then one day during traing:

Jaskier, finally fed up, from the side, in a snippy tone: You know, I could be wrong since I'm just a silly bard... but maybe somebody should teach the princess how to properly controll her voice first.

Everybody: *looking at him in confusion*...

Everybidy: *slowly realising Jaskier might be right and damn, why didn't they think of that themselves and sooner*

Jaskier *casually leaning against a wall, strumming his lute, not looking at anyone*: But oh, if only you knew somebody who could teach such a skill. Shame, really...

He didn’t come back

Friends come back

Art inspiration and reference this artist has a really impressive skill with color and I love their painterly style. This was a challenge for me to see if I could mimic the way they paint and I’m really proud of how it turned out.

[ID: In his red doublet from the dragon hunt Jaskier wipes tears from his eyes as he looks at the viewer. The look on his face is torn between sadness and anger. end ID]

my thoughts on Jaskier below the cut

From what we know from season 2 Jaskier finished writing Her Sweet Kiss after the mountain and then The Golden One and Burn Butcher Burn after that. How I interpret that is Jaskier was hurt by what Geralt said but not heartbroken. He took the time to continue composing and neither Her Sweet Kiss or The Golden One are angry songs. It’s just Burn Butcher Burn thats full of anger.

I mean he’s in his forties by then and has known Geralt for many years. I think while its not fun to be yelled at by your friend he would understand that it was an outburst born from heartbreak. I think he expected Geralt to come back and then Jaskier would shout at him a bit for taking his feelings out on him and then they’d make up and continue on.

I think he was far more hurt that Geralt didn’t come back and try to say sorry for yelling at him. To him it would feel like his friendship wasn’t even worth trying to keep. I am confused a bit about the timeline of the mountain to Geralt looking for Cirilla but i am assuming there was gap of time big enough that Geralt could have sought out Jaskier but didn’t.

Anyways that’s where I think Burn Butcher Burn was born. When Jaskier realizes that Geralt isn’t coming back and Jaskier is wasting his time waiting for him. That’s when i think he got angry and felt heartbroken.

Due to his school being a little more diverse in the contracts it accepts (assassination, theft, etc), you can bet Aiden's going be a pretty passable actor, or at least have some decent improv skills when the occasion calls for it. Jaskier is a bard and a spy - enough said.

So, picture the two of them engaging in a friendly one upmanship of situations they've had to bullshit their way out of while Lambert and Geralt just sit listening in mute horror and strongly considering child harnesses for their SO's because 'fucking hell, how are these two actually still alive??!!?'

Geralt: I'm never letting you out of my sight again.

Jaskier: I know Love. Finish your porridge.

Lambert: Wait, that was when....where the fuck was I during all this?

Aiden: I snuck out when you were occupied at the Inn. We weren't even fucking at that point and you looked like you were getting somewhere with that Skellige bloke, I didn't want to interrupt. Besides, it should have been just a quick in and out.

Jaskier: Is that what Lambert said to the Skellige bloke?

*Lambert starts spluttering and choking around his mouthful of small ale while Aiden just about falls out of his seat he's laughing so hard.*
