Jaskier is the Polish translation of dandelion/buttercup, his name was just sorta literally translated in the English version of the books!
I knowww I’m Polish :D Jaskier is indeed Buttercup as far as I know and Dandelion is something different (Mlecz, also yellow), I think Buttercup would have been cuter!!
(I was very surprised by this cuz I’d never seen the English translation before)

Jaskier was a flirt.
Anyone who knew him could attest to that. At the fancy parties the nobles held, he went around the room when he played his songs, smiling and winking at whoever caught his eye. He wasn't above leaning in close to his desired conquests and changing the lyrics a bit to... enhance the mood, as he put it. Usually by rhyming clock with cock or something equally as vulgar.
However, Jaskier didn't limit his flirtations to nobles he wanted to bed. He pretty much flirted with anything and anyone at any time.
Including Geralt.
  or
  Jaskier is thirsty and Geralt is soft. That's the show, people.

while stuck at grandmas house in the country with no internet for 2 days I had been able to watch 2 eps of the witcher and i am diggin it as fuck
ep 1:
Like that they went with the renfri story first that was one of the short stories i remembered best when i was binge reading before the show starts lmao
they did the story really good imo, I think the biggest differences I could tell was the removal of the alderman and replaced with his “daughter” who pretty much had the exact same amount of story and said his line at the end, another difference was that renfri and geralt boned in a house instead of the woods and some of her kind of convoluted backstory was cut lmao oh and him taking her broach and putting it on his sword which is nice, makes her death mean more than the short story did for her.
liked hearing the script lifted directly from the books lines!
another difference was the geralt telling roach about his early days which was in a different story and he was telling someone else im p sure, but it was p smart using it here it sets up the expectation of his character for the series, deep down way deep in another fantasy story he’d be a classical hero, banter and all but he’s in this one and has/had to adapt.
fuck that sword scene was so fuckin sexy tho oh my god, knowing henry did all his own stunts too just gave me shivers
anyway yeah lovin henry as geralt
ending was as sad as the book :(
ep 2:
fun fact i didnt know who jaskier was cuz apparently thats his polish name lmao the english books i read always said his name was dandelion
lmao “did your mother fuck a goat”
like this goatman
dont remember this story super well but i do know it was rushed, but that wasnt a problem to me since that story was meant to show the lives/struggles and anger of the native magic folk towards the human colonizers, and ciri and yens sides of the story explored those just as well as the book (surprise im not a source material purist lmao)
toss a coin to your witcher was catchy
elf: *gives jaskier a new lute* jaskier: :) jaskier: 🎶 he thrust every elf far back on the shelf 🎶
I am quite interested in these origins they’re giving ciri and yen since the books were always from geralts pov so I never got to see these when reading the first 2 books
goatman looks good design wise, elves are kinds just generic pointy ears but i can live with it
