[MASTERPOST] - there I go with the h/c again :) In the last post @panur asked something about the timeline and that got me thinking! Ciri was very little when Jaskier was ill, she doesn't remember much - she probably had no idea what happened. And she does not really have an idea what Jaskier does either but oh well

Everybody: praising how well The Last Of Us depicted the adaptation, not only sticking to the source material but also making minor changes that compliments the story

Meanwhile, The Witcher production:

I rewatched Brooklyn Nine Nine again and I can totally see Jaskier and Valdo interacting with each other like Wuntch and Holt

This has been living rent free in my head for the past weeks and I just had to draw it

Click for better quality, Tumblr likes to make it sucky <3

[toss-a-coin-to-your-stan-account]

honestly you have to admit like. after having Numerous Characterization Issues with their Actual Book -> Screen Characters and in general making Objectively Weird Adaptation Choices. the witcher production team or whatever giving everything they fucking had in their "accurate character vibe" reservoir to valdo marx (a character who is only mentioned in two scenes in the books and is actually never shown in-person/described in appearance) to make him seem exactly how nearly everyone collectively imagined Valdo Marx to be like regardless of fancast is literally one of the funniest goddamn things

#'yeah we recieved a lot of criticism for s1 Geralt being a brick compared to book geralt here's a valdo taken STRAIGHT from your mind tho' #mine #valdo marx #the witcher #witcher

As much as we all wish that modern! jaskier would make TAD type music he reality is that it definitely wouldn’t. Man’s is like the Taylor swift of his century. Modern au jaskier would be a pop singer and we just have to live with that fact

Way late to the party but I am still PISSED about how badly Eskel was both done dirty and absolutely wasted as a character in Netflix’s Witcher. They also seemed to realize that they forgot(for non-book readers) to show just HOW MUCH Eskel meant to Geralt so they also threw in that little “flashback” which also did nothing.

Will I ever stop being salty as fuck about that?

Nope. Not a chance.

That killed the show for me. That and how crappy Jaskier is also handled. I didn’t bother with season three.

#one episode #ONE episode is all we got #and he was thrown away like he meant nothing to the damn plot #and to Geralt and how interacting with him helped Ciri evolve as a character #I will also never get over how they took samples from him then just… #threw his body to the wolves #like WTF?!?!?! #wtf is that?! #Eskel #witcher eskel #anti netflix witcher #Netflix Witcher critical #Eskel deserved better #my rants #*cough* I’m good (for now)

[yellowspiralbound]

Since season 3 of The Witcher Netflix comes out tomorrow...here are some of my concerns on adaptation from this season onward. Potential spoilers for the future seasons and definite spoilers for the books. Long post ahead.

The Hansa's Dynamic

I am so worried about how the Hansa is going to be handled in the show. Like shaking in my boots terrified. The showrunners already really messed up Dandelion & Geralt's dynamic...and that's one of the easier dynamics present in the Hansa imo. The dynamic is already going to be screwy because Cahir is a middle aged man and not a petulant teenager if he's present in the Hansa at all (though I think he will be since Emhyr called him and Fringilla out at the end of s2).

Emhyr as a Character

Speaking of Emhyr...I think they might attempt to give him a redemption arc, and I cannot emphasize how bad of an idea that is. They're going to retcon the whole "wanting to impregnate Ciri" bit, which I have mixed feelings on. Like yes, on one hand that's fucking gross but on the other hand, that bit is in there to show how fucked up Emhyr is and why Geralt needs to get to Ciri so quickly; it adds a sense of urgency to the Hansa's travels. If I see Emhyr sympathizers on my dash after this season I will lose my fucking mind.

Milva's Pregnancy & Related Scenes

I suspect that Milva's pregnancy is going to be cut entirely or play up the rest of the Hansa's concern for her as a weird "men think they can control women's bodies" thing which Milva will have to fight with them about so the show can be appropriately pro-choice without exploring any of the pro-choice nuance the books bring up. I can just see Regis talking to the guys about it being turned into a "the father deserves a say in a woman's choice to abort" scenario instead of the "I will give this woman her abortion regardless of what you all think about that (and I've made that VERY clear) but I think she's making this choice because she believes you all will abandon her/not support her if she wants to keep this baby and someone needs to make sure that she knows that won't happen" scenario that it actually is. This is also plays into my concerns about the Hansa's dynamic as changing that scene changes it irreparably.

Characterizing Nilfgaard as a Nation

Right now I feel like the show could go one of two ways 1) Nilfgaard is wrong in everything it does or 2) Nilfgaard is right in everything it does (if Emhyr gets a redemption arc). The show has already made a show of the Northern Realms' racism, which is book accurate mind you, but I fear this will translate to a sort of "Nilfgaard is the better nation as its less racist" scenario. While Nilfgaard is better in that aspect and a few others, it is still a militant slave nation. Nilfgaard and the Northern Realms both have their evils and their virtues; that's a big point in the books and the games. Neither nation is 100% good or 100% bad - they're just nations. I don't think the show will be able to handle that kind of nuance.

Jaskier & Radovid...

Apparently, Radovid is supposed to be one of Jask's love interests this season. Radovid is a massive racist, a war criminal, and a teenager. I'm sure all of that's going to be retconned but for fuck's sake just make a new character if you're going to age up and completely change the personality and insanity of an existing one. Important note: I am 1000% in support of queer Jask. I have never shipped that man with a woman in my life (even in the books and games) but for the love of God why did his LI have to be fucking RADOVID??

Mistle & the Rats

If they make Ciri and Mistle a love story, I am going to be disappointed but not surprised. Let me be clear: Mistle is a rapist and an abuser. I suspect they will change that to shoehorn in a queer relationship (even though Triss and Philippa are RIGHT THERE if they want a semi-canon wlw couple). The Rats as a whole are definitely going to be made into more robinhood-like characters because God forbid a main character like Ciri is morally grey or does questionable/bad things.

Geralt's Disability

If this season ends with the Vilgefortz and Geralt fight, as I suspect it might, Geralt will be disabled permanently by the end of this season. The dryads do not fix it. Magic does not fix it. Geralt becomes disabled and stays disabled. His disability becomes a hindrance during the books and the reader actively sees him grapple with the fallout of this. I do not trust this show to handle that - especially with how much more closed off Geralt is in the show compared to the books. If I had to guess, Geralt's disability will be handwaved away or mentioned in passing and never actually shown to impact him which is not cool.

i had to, for reasons

#i actually do allow criticism in this one because “looks like a bottom actually is a bottom was a STRUGGLE #matter of fact that entire last row was a struggle #also wanted to add fringilla but she’s also very looks like a switch is actually a top #yen too looks like a top but… tissaia. so undeniably a top like i just had to #the witcher #jaskier #geralt of rivia #yennefer #triss merigold #coën #lambert #istredd #renfri #tissaia de vries

Jaskier is the Taylor Swift of The Witcher. Burn Butcher Burn and Picture to Burn give the same energy.

Oh Jaskier... this is an awful winter for him. I think there are various things at play that would make Jaskier defensive. His track with father figures isn't the best, and while he firmly believes that there isn't anything shameful about what he's doing, he still feels like he isn't seen as anything different than a stupid omega, who can't provide properly for his child, who isn't a good parent- Meanwhile, if Vesemir threw the first stone, with his educational and disciplinary methodes...

#geralt of rivia #jaskier #vesemir #yennefer of vengerberg #geraskier #geraskier lovechild #omegaverse #blood tw #this is not how you want to meet your father in law #I keep thinking about how insufficent Jaskier feels as a parent sometimes #(and what that says about him that this is something that is one of his biggest worries) #and what Vesemir sees #a child that is well-fed #that gets bed time stories and toys #who gets his scraped knees kissed better #a child that was never beaten or slapped in his life - that has never experienced violence before #he has absolutely NOTHING to say #nothing to criticize #but Jaskier is out of his mind (understandably so) #(it might come across as slightly anti-witcherish with all the stories that exist about witcher stealing children) #(which Jaskier knows are bullshit that is not why he's reacting that way) #They'll have a lot to talk about! and for quite a while this explains why Jaskier didn't seek out Geralt #why WHY WHY did this story start to get plot it always happens and I can never manage to get it all in comic form gosh

YENNEFER POKEMON

I'm making a Yennefer Pokémon gym later design, but I'm having trouble nailing down a design

Tell me ur fave and please don't be afraid to elaborate or give criticism, I crave that shit

The writers don't seem to be able to create conflict without turning to betrayal.

Last season it was Yennefer selling Ciri to some OC demon, so Geralt has a reason to be angry with her. (Not Ciri- they're immediately besties.)

Now Jaskier betrays Geralt for some OC dick in order to "protect" Ciri.

Not only there's no logic to it, it unnecessarily lacks faithfulness of character, while adding absolutely nothing to the story. No depth whatsoever.
