‘An elegant little castle,’ Cahir said in admiration. ‘Well I’ll be, an elegant and pleasing little castle, indeed.’ ‘The duchess lives well,’ said the vampire. ‘You have to admit it.’ ‘Fucking nice gaff,’ added Angoulême.
i thought the girl in beauclair's gwent card bore a striking resemblance :) i gave it a little edit, for geralt & co. arrived to beauclair as “autumn was passing and winter was coming...”
so here's angoulême admiring the 'fucking nice gaff,' sometime in mid-october, as the snow begins to fall

Hi hello it's almost 1:45 am on this last Friday of the year and i can't sleep because Baldito is going honk mimimimi right next to my head (YES this cat SNORES) and because i burned my mouth and the beyond amazing Beauclair Grand Palace Honey Croissants from The Official Witcher Cookbook. I got the book as a gift from my little brother and naturally tried some of the recipes already.
Also, my dear buddy @eolewyn1010 is visiting me atm and we were cooking together 🥺 I'm still amazed how quickly Baldito decided inam no longer the only person who gets lovingly blinked at.

An exploratory kiss, testing the waters between them - Anna Henrietta and Olgierd von Everec, Geralt's birthday party
The duchess swayed on her feet - the Redanian was at her side swiftly, catching her with surprising gentleness for his burly stature and demeanor. Batting her lashes, vision dancing with over indulgence, the swell of emotion from suddenly being so close to his broad chest, chiseled jaw overwhelmed her - Anarietta chastely kissed her rescuer.
He tasted of the sweetest Toussaint wine.
"Ah, Your Grace." Olgierd pulled back with a sheepish smile. "At one time I would have traded anything to kiss a woman such as yourself, no matter her state ... But I fear those days are gone. It's best we get you safely tucked away in your carriage and back to the palace."
"I could command you, you know. What would you say to that? Surely you would not deny the ruler of the land where you stand."
"That would be just as disappointing. My days of obeyin' orders I don't believe in have also passed."
Anarietta felt heat rising in her cheeks at his casual dismissal of the power she wielded, but then he was lifting her hand and the bristle of his mustache hairs were tickling the back of her hand where he kissed her. The irritation dissipated instantly, replaced by the warm embrace of her buzz.
"I will allow it this time. As long as you swear to come to the magnificent Beauclair palace and see me once more. In an unaltered state. The stories you have regaled me with this evening are unmatched by the most valiant knight, the most recognized poet."
Olgierd's lips curled into a smirk. "I swear it on the eagle."
She laughed breathlessly, nearly missing a step into her carriage. "Cheeky."
His wink was the last image before the carriage door swung shut.

2023 writing round up
Tagged by @loki-is-my-kink-awakening
I have written 30 fics this year (I included wips in this). All are the Witcher unless otherwise stated:
JANUARY
Love be brave (geraskefer, M, 2.9k)
Jaskier is held captive and tortured for information on Geralt and Ciri. Geralt and Yennefer are on their way to rescue him, but not before his resolve finally breaks.
Pearl and Verbena (ciri & Jaskier, Essi & Jaskier, T, 1.3k)
Geralt, Yennefer, Ciri and Jaskier head back to the Temple of Melitele for some respite. When Jaskier can’t sleep, he heads to library and finds a book that brings up memories he had tried to bury.
The price of justice (geraskier, M, 2.4k)
Jaskier lands himself in trouble again, execpt this time in a town that likes that adopts cruel methods of punishment.
APRIL
New beginnings, old friends (geraskier, E, 25.3k)
Geralt and Jaskier try to manage their new relationship, Jaskier's recovery from his blood addiction, and call upon an old friend to help.
Part 2 of Love & Blood
MAY
once is enough (geraskefer, M, 27.1k)
When the dust settles in Kaer Morhen and everyone returns to their routines, Jaskier is left alone. A spare part amongst the rest with nothing but the drink and his own neverending thoughts for company. He finds himself sinking further and further. But how long can you last in the sea of your own mind before you drown?
JUNE
Jewel of my eye (Anna Henrietta/Dandelion, M, 1.4k)
The palace of Beauclair is hosting a masquerade ball in honour of their guests, the hansa. Dandelion and Anna Henrietta are playing a game of their own.
A lucrative purchase (yennskier, E, 2.8k)
Jaskier visits a sorceress in Rinde, hoping she can create something specific for him. He gets a little more than he bargained for.
JULY
Then take me here (radskier, E, 1.2k)
what Jaskier and Radovid got up to in that scene
Light the fire (radskier, E, 1.7k)
After an evening of merriment, Jaskier and Radovid wander into the throne room where the prince has an interesting proposition for him.
Challenge the mighty titan and his troubadours (yennskier, M, ongoing - 11.6k currently)
Pirate Queen Yennefer discovers a stowaway on her ship. She plans on making an example of him, but it's a long way to their destination. And perhaps she is more interested in this man than she lets on. But nothing is ever smooth sailing in the life of a pirate. And politics, secrets and lies are never too far behind
Bitter water (yenralt, T, 742)
It had become some kind of game. This thing between them. Geralt and Yennefer always seemed to run into each other. They always parted wanting more
What it’s like to be you (yennskier, T, 1k)
Emotions are raw after the dragon hunt. Jaskier and Yennefer take comfort in each other, even if they would regret it the next day.
If he sinks to darkest night (radskier, M, 1.9k)
A prince gave up the life he knew for his siren until he could not
Sweet as wine (yenbrina, E, 1.8k)
Yennefer is bored at a dull court until she finds she has to bunk with her old Aretuza rival. You know what happens next
AUGUST
When you know I can’t love (geraskier, G, 731)
Blue eyes caught his from across the room. A subtle smile offered that Geralt could not return. Jaskier didn’t seem to notice.
These inconvenient fireworks (geraskier, G, 1.1k)
Jaskier is running late for work and in his rush he doesn't see the terrifying hulk of a man until his coffee is already down his shirt.
It’s not a want, it’s a need (geradskier, E, 2.4k)
Jaskier revealed a fantasy to Radovid that the prince was more than willing to fulfill. And he knew the perfect person to help him.
SEPTEMBER
here we go again (Jaskier/Vespula, E, 2.9k)
Vespula is mad at Jaskier after catching him in his latest tryst. He has a plan to make it up to her. But maybe she is the one making the rules of this game they play. And perhaps she has a few secrets of her own to share.
The beast you’ve made me (radskier, E, 4.1k)
Radovid didn't believe the rumour about the werewolf that was spotted outside of the city until he came face to face with it. He couldn't have predicted what would happen next. Nor the all too familiar face that would greet him come morning.
OCTOBER
You only need to ask (geraskier, E, 3.4k)
Geralt has seen the way the bard looks at him. And at other men. It's none of his business, of course. it was up to Jaskier to discover himself. But that didn't mean Geralt couldn't give him a little push in the right direction.
At the end of all things (milva & jaskier, T, 1.3k)
In a quiet moment in Brokilon, Milva and Jaskier come to understand each other
NOVEMBER
Lamentable (radskier, M, ongoing - currently 5.3k
The trajectory of Radovid's life takes a sharp turn when King Vizimir is killed and he ascends to the throne. The weight of expectations, whisperings in his ear, and a strained relationship trigger a rapid downward spiral.
Meanwhile, Philippa and Dijkstra's plans are all falling into place. They have the perfect king to mould. But it's time to cut some loose threads. Jaskier's life is in danger - and betrayal may come from the person he trusts the most.
Sins laid bare (Tomb Raider, Jacob/Lara, M, 2.3k)
Lara has been obsessed with the mysterious Prophet figure for a long time so goes in search to meet him. When he finally agrees to talk with her via a confessional, things escalate quickly.
A rosebud by any other name (geraskefer, E, ongoing - currently 50.6k)
Jaskier gets a client in a certain white haired witcher who just keeps coming back. The pair find themselves growing close. It's a little complicated, but they think they could make it work. Until one day, in walks a violet eyed sorceress looking for Jaskier.
What follows is an enlightening conversation, a precarious relationship, a new career and a little bit of subterfuge
DECEMBER
Spymasters and secrets (Dijkstra/Radovid, E, 3.4k)
Radovid always pushed and pushed Dijkstra. Sometimes he needed to be put in his place.
I’ll tell you no lies (Tomb Raider, Jacob/Lara, T, 3.3k)
Jacob, having been fatally wounded during Trinity's invasion, asks Lara to kill him. Lara grits her teeth and pulls the trigger. Then she witnesses something extraordinary.
In the bleak midwinter (yenralt, G, 2.9k)
Ciri had been down lately. With Yule coming up, Geralt and Yennefer decide to do something to cheer her up.
The eye of the storm (frinfran, M, 1.2k)
After escaping Thanedd, Francesca and Fringilla find themselves alone with only each other for comfort.
The sea and the sun (yennskier, E, 9.8k)
Finding himself getting into trouble while swimming in the sea, Jaskier is saved by the most captivating creature he had ever seen. A goddess. He makes it his mission to find her again and, when he does, he finds the goddess who saved him comes with a tail and very sharp claws
Mind, body, yours (Rience/Jaskier, geraskier, E, ongoing - currently 36.9k)
Jaskier wakes up tied to a chair, injured and no memory of what had happened. Rescue comes in the form of a strange mage who gives him refuge as he heals. Jaskier quickly finds himself falling under Rience's spell. And when he tells him that Ciri would be safer with him than with Geralt and asks him to take her from under the witcher's nose, Jaskier cannot say no.

Hello. First of all, I wanted to thank you for your amazing work. The Witcher fandom wouldn't be the same without your beautiful edits and screenshots, I'm grateful that there's someone out there tirelessly creating content for one of my favorite OTPs. Second of all, I know I've already reposted like half your content but... would you perhaps be interested in taking photos of Geralt and Regis getting married in one of those cute chapels next to palace in Beauclair? Thanks in advance, no pressure tho xxx
Oh, hello. I am very pleased, that this is resonating. And thank you for your attention to my modest content. :)
Tumblr media
I will consider your wishes. I myself had thoughts about this. But I still have to get to Toussaint, because the save is new due to a recent game update. Therefore, I will come up with something for Velen and Novigrad as I progress. And when I get to Toussaint, I will carry out what has been in my head for a long time. You have only confirmed this direction.

it will forever fuck me up that while yennefer is imprisoned in the cold walls of castle stygga in a damp dark cell chained to a wall, and ciri is in another space and time coerced into copulating with her great-great-etc-grandfather, geralt and the hanza (whose quest it is to rescue. them.) is just smack in the lap of luxury, attending the october banquet, sharing breakfast for two to three hours every day in palace beauclair like

Anna Henrietta
Chest 1: Anna Henrietta never felt the weight of a sword in her hand, pondered the memoirs of great rulers, nor cared enough to deeply study the Continent's rich history. Yet these apparent faults have done little to diminish her duchy's successes in matters of war. Her secret? Knight-errants from across the Continent – drawn by word of Anna's beauty and charm – are willing to sacrifice anything to earn the duchess's favor. From a safe distance, in the company of her maidservants, Anna Henrietta fans herself as the chivalrous knights' declare their vows—casting them beguiling looks as they gallop off toward their doom.
Chest 2: When it comes to grace and couture, none go to greater lengths than the duchess herself. Gods forbid she be caught wearing the same gown twice, and woe betide any soul who spies Her Grace before her frizzy curls have been tamed into a perfectly symmetrical coiffure. However, should circumstances demand it, Anarietta would not hesistate to tear off her frilly skirt to mount the nearest steed and rush headlong into another adventure.
Chest 3: Despite Toussaint's status as a vassal state within the mighty Nilfgaardian Empire, Anna Henrietta never faced a significant conflict within its borders. It should come as no great surprise then that Beauclair's guardsmen are better trained for parades and fanfare than mortal combat. Thus, when vampires and other bloodthirsty beasts emerged to feast from the caverns deep beneath the duchy's capital, the city's only hope rushed to meet them with dull blades and frilled caftans—only to be decimated. Yet for those who survived, nothing could have better prepared them for the true horrors of war.
Scroll 1: Duchess Anna Henrietta is widely revered for her many favorable qualities—in particular, her generosity, kindheartedness and sensitivity to the plight of Toussaint's commoners. If only she had but a touch more patience and perspective—why, she would have all the makings of a truly prodigious sovereign!
Scroll 2: The famed bard Dandelion who, for a time, became intimately entwined with Anna Henrietta, drew creative inspiration from his passionate affair with the duchess: "Across the world most fickle I've found, a mountain's weather and a little weasel crowned."
Scroll 3: Though perhaps not the wittiest words penned by the illustrious poet, they bring light to a very real problem. Anna Henrietta was prone to sudden changes of opinion without provocation—a reality that oft caused the already powdered faces of the duchess's court to turn a shade paler.
Scroll 4: For, when the duchess fell into a gracious mood, she doled out great riches and noble titles like chocolate soufflés at a royal banquet. Yet, should anything disrupt her fragile equilibrium, heads rolled down Beauclair's cobbled streets and crimson blood pooled on the palace's marbled floors.

The Beast of Beauclair in Nilfgaard
A Special Birthday gift for my friend and fellow sister of the Wood, @ningnomaningnong! All photos are hers: I merely edited them.
Dettlaff thought he found peace, solitude even, in the land where the general population believes his kind doesn't exist. He was wrong.
His infamy followed him, not even cultivating a beard could conceal his identity. He was eventually captured and taken into the dungeons of the imperial palace, Dettlaff was surprised he was caught with very little effort. And even more surprised that the emperor himself, the one called The White Flame, is his gaoler.
Tumblr media
"Do not even entertain the possibility of escaping, vampire" said the emperor casually surveying the room "these walls are especially constructed with your people in mind. Your infamy in Beauclair made that possible."
Dettlaff could feel it. This room was laced with metals that sap a vampire's strength and speed. Even with the collar and chain removed (along with his clothes), he couldn't muster his powers to turn into mist. Nor could he call upon his brethren for aid. He was as helpless as a newborn.
Tumblr media
"Do not even think of attacking" the emperor added coolly "I need only utter a single word and activate concealed traps to subdue you."
"You... have no intention of killing me?" Dettlaff spoke, even his voice felt weighted by the rooms suppressing aura.
Tumblr media
Emhyr turns with a grin that mocks the vampire's lack of comprehension.
"I merely give the orders. But killing you is not enough to pay for the lives you took, nor does imprisoning you in my dungeons like a disagreeable prized pet gives me any satisfaction. I have a punishment fitting for you."
Emhyr flicks his head at the object behind the vampire.
"Get in the cage!"
Tumblr media
Dettlaff gritted his fangs, hating the helplessness that gripped him... again. This is the second time humans held him in their sway. First, Rhe...Syanna, and now The White Flame.
His hesitation prompted Emhyr to bark a warning. "Do not disobey me".
Tumblr media
Dettlaff could feel what remained of his vampiric strength sapped by the metal at the slightest touch.
Once inside, the emperor secured the locks.
"What do you plan to do to me?"
Emhyr looks up, sees a sliver of fear in the vampire's startling blue eyes. The White Flame's lips stretched in a smile.
"Where you are going, you might even enjoy it."
Emhyr walks to the sole wooden desk cleared of any torture devices and wrote a single line.
A gift to commemorate your Special Day
Tumblr media
......THE END
Happy Birthday Ning!
