Lollipop

Smol fluffy Jaskel because why not

On Ao3 here

"Can I have a lollipop?"

"No. You just brushed your teeth."

"But I get a lollipops after the doctor!"

"Yes, but this was the dentist, and teeth don't like lollipops."

"Mine does!"

"No, that is your tongue."

"And my tummy!"

"Exactly. Uncle Lambert likes lollipops, doesn't he?"

Jaskier watches the exchange while leaning against the doorframe to the hall, where a huge, muscular man is helping a five year old Ciri get out of her overalls. 

Ciri frowns hard when Lambert is mentioned, steadying herself with a hand on the man's shoulder as he struggles to get her boot off of her very adult-safe  overall leg.

"He does," she agrees after a moment.

"Do you remember when we went trick or treating, and how all your lollipops were gone?"

This makes Ciri pout. Jaskier can recall this happening; in fact, it had been the topic of the week when she had returned and exclaimed how a wicked fairy had poofed them away.

A dangerous topic to breach, but Jaskier has a feeling he knows where this is going, and he can't stop a slow smirk from spreading.

"They were poofed away," Ciri confirms again, wobbling as she switches to her other foot to balance on. Her hands are so small against that muscular shoulder.

"Do you remember how Uncle Lambert had a tummy ache that night?"

"He said he had to fart!" Ciri giggles in the way that delighted way all five year olds do whenever a fart is mentioned.

"Well, uncle Lambert's tongue also liked lollipops. But his tummy did not."

Ciri ponders this revelation for a moment, and then she makes a betrayed gasp.

"Uncle Lamby was dressed as a fairy!! He took my lollipops!!"

Oh, the beast has awakened. She leans forward with all the seriousness of a queen, and grabs the man's face to angle it towards her.

"Uncle Lamby must pay."

The man nods solemnly, and pokes her nose.

"Yes, but what did we learn from uncle Lamby eating too many lollipops?"

"That it makes you fart, and your tummy hurt!"

"Exactly!" The man helps Ciri step out of the overalls and hands them to her to put away.

He stands up, and even if Jaskier saw them come in, he was not prepared for what that meant.

Yes, there is an old, kind of scary scar across the man's face, but his eyes are warm and kind, and his build, well. Other words come to mind too, but they are not words Jaskier will use while around kids, let’s just keep it at that.

Their eyes meet, and Jaskier feels his cheeks heat up when the man smiles and stretches out a hand.

"Sorry, hello. I'm Eskel, Ciri's uncle. I took Ciri to the dentist today."

"Jaskier, her classroom teacher." Eskel's hand is warm and callused, shaking Jaskier's hands firmly before they let go.

It is hard to look away, hard to instead look down at Ciri, who has now stepped in front of her uncle expectantly.

"I put it away."

"The boots too?" Eskel asks, and she nods a little too fast. A quick look tells them that no, she did not put away the boots.

"Try again, cub. It seems they are trying to flee."

Ciri harrumphs and stomps her foot, her bangs falling into her eyes, but she does indeed return to pick up her escaping boots.

"Boots are a tricky kind." Jaskier remarks as they watch her shove her boots in irritably before returning. "Will you be picking her up too?"

Be cool, Jaskier, don't look to eager.

"I will. We got a lollipop revenge to plan, after all." The glint of mischief in Eskel's eyes makes something flutter in Jaskier's chest.

"What did uncle Lamby do to deserve such ire?"

For a moment, Eskel studies him, as if weighing him up. Ciri zooms past them both and into the next room, and she can hear her excitedly tell Dara about the dentist and lollipop thieves.

"I could tell you over a cup of coffee, maybe this Friday?." Eskel says, and oh, oh oh oh help, Jaskier is in trouble.

"That would be nice."

"BYE UNCLE ESKY!" Ciri yells from inside the room, and Eskel waves back.

"I'll see you both this afternoon, then." Eskel smirks, and oh no, his poor heart. Without another word, Eskel turns and leaves.

Jaskier decides yes, he needs a breather right fucking now, because did he just get asked out by the hottest fucking man this side of Cintra?

Hiding among the jackets and overalls gives him about two minutes to collect himself, and also spying out the window after uncle Esky. 

Only to see that said man is stood a few paces away, probably what he thought was out of sight, face buried in his hands, and looking adorably embarrassed.

Jaskier needs to marry this man.

sweet nothings: can I please request modern!music teacher!Jaskier and female (or gn reader) teacher reader decorating their classroom whilst sharing some sweet moments together, please? Thank you so much! ♥️

"Perfect," Jaskier hummed, amused as you plopped down on one of the cloud-like ottomans in the reading corner, paper leaves hanging from ribbon vines, swooning over your head in the shape of a tree.

"Isn't it just?" you mused, looking up almost dreamlike at the perfect little nook he'd helped you create, moments after you'd helped him paint music notes all over his own classroom. There was still evidence of such on your hands, stray streaks of painted hair adding to the perfect day and perfect scene. "Think of all the worlds we'll visit over here."

"Hmm, can I join?" he was kind in pretending you'd deny him, arms already stretched out to beckon him forward, pulling him down onto the rainbow carpet with the sweetest giggle leaving your lips. "Where will we go first?" he mused, pulling you against his chest as your knees stretched against yours.

"Anywhere we want to," you insisted, pulling a random book from the bookshelf next to you, the one Jaskier had painted to look like a little ranger car in a wildlife park, to match the safari theme of your classroom, or course. "Wonderland," you breathed, fingers sauntering over the gold print of the book title.

"Thought we were already there," he picked a stuffed bunny up from beside him, pointedly looking between the two of you, the giggle from your lips earning you a quick kiss to the back of your head before being tackled in an attack of tickles.

[MASTERPOST] I managed to do at least a little something! Milek learned to write when he was still a little wee.

#jaskier #the witcher #geraskier lovechild #twn #I wonder what kind of teacher Jaskier was for Milek - teaching your own kids can sometimes be more troublesome #I drew this before I went because I'm currently travelling for work - I am e x h a u s t

[vriendenboekjes]

wait wait last question I swear. what drew you to the lute?

jkfdsljkasdfjl this is a little embarry but i'll tell you because i love you. anyways i got a too little into the witcher and then i saw my local art/music/dance school offered lute classes and i thought to myself "i am never in my life going to get another chance to try it out" and then i signed up for a 4 week try-out course right before the summer holidays a couple of years ago and i ended up really loving it ^-^ and even when the witcher got too embarrassing to continue watching im still having the time of my life :)

when i was 8 i also had guitar classes for a year but the practice (and the teacher) genuinely wasn't fun, but i've always loved string instruments. I'd also love to play the harp because i think it's one of the most beautiful sounding instruments ever.

Are there any instrument you'd like to learn in addition to the horn?

#i had to turn it off when they were killing off elves and dwarves and then jaskier said next they'll come for the artists... i had to turn #it off i couldnt keep watching after that #and now my teacher is this super sweet older lady #ask #recapitulation #🌬️

Random Witcher au

Witcher decided to journal their journey on the path since they started and logged how long they stayed, the reception from humans, how much pay ect.

It catches on with others so they know which places to avoid due to reception or not paid correct amount

Then here comes along jaskier with his Witcher songs and suddenly there are more positive interactions and money.

I kind of want some witchers to find him while he is teaching (him being a teacher during winter away from geralt) and want answers.

Meanwhile said class that the witchers busted in on and jaskier are treated to decades of data from multiple witchers about their reception and how it's positive due to jaskier.

And they start talking about how it's giving false hope until jaskier starts giving negative songs about witchers, or once he is dead and things go back to the status quo of hating witchers and not getting paid.

#the witcher #jaskier #witchers #witcher au #witcher data #false hope au #teacher jaskier #professor jaskier #fic idea #jaskier's songs #toss a coin to your witcher

[roughentumble]

wait ok witcher fic idea: jaskier may have grown up a viscount, but he didnt ENJOY any of it, and indeed they tried to beat lessons of formality into him, so he endeavored to learn as little of it as possible out of obstinate stubbornness. but geralt, he actually enjoys knowing at least some of the rules of manners-- he listens when yen explains it, he uses a knife and fork for his chicken when he can, they were never forced on him but he absorbs and retains them.

something happens, and jaskier absolutely MUST learn these rules before a set date.* so GERALT has to teach JASKIER all the rules, which fork goes with which course and which seat to take at the table and how to address the master of the house etc. etc., and most importantly-- teaching him the steps of some formal dances

*perhaps some sort of extremely lucrative employment that'll also be excellent for his career, but the patron in question is an absolute stickler for propriety. or maybe he needs to go home for a bit, and if they feel he's "been made too wild by the road" they'll use their wealth and status to keep him back home somehow. it could be anything from "egads! light and fluffy hijinks" to "oh no this is Serious Angst"

#enough teacher jaskier let geralt take the lead!! #could be platonic friends comedy hijinks fun #OR it could be PINING it could be YEARNING it could be geralt's hand in his as he pulls him in close!!! #jaskier getting taught through gentle encouragement instead of on the business end of a cane #witcher tag #ogc tag

[artistsfuneral]

Ciri having a small crush on Jaskier (like kids have a crush on their teachers) and suddenly she gets so often offended on Jaskier's behalf and then she realizes she's jealous. Of Geralt. Because Geralt gets to spend so much time with Jaskier and all the bard's attention and-

Geralt is so confused why Ciri is suddenly angry at him all the time. Jaskier knows. He knows but a) doesn't want to hurt Ciri's feelings and b) thinks it's absolutely hilarious.

okay but book jaskier is so special to me

Him just being this childish, flirty, and self loving pretty man in his fourties who makes inappropriate jokes at the wrong time and always ends up in situations that he needs to be saved from

but him also being so much more than just this basic, seen before, comic relief.

him being an artist, above all else, a really good one, one that can make people passionate and sad and feel all the emotions he feels. wasnt he even a teacher at oxenfurt? like teacher jaskier pls give it all to me

him coming from a rich family, being educated but deciding that his art is all he needs and to live his life in the fullest

him always thinking he's not brave enough, but for the people he loves he goes through danger and discomfort, as long as he possibly could, longer than anyone, including himself would have thought

him also being just a really lovable person? him chosing Geralt, cold seeming, unsocial, sad Geralt as his best friend (in the books thats the kind of realtionship i see them as) and just making Geralt love him, even though he fucks things up on a regular basis, can be annoying as hell and lands them in the strangest ans messiest situation, Geralt loves his bestie so much, he would go through anything for him without making Jaskier feel bad for it

sure he might sometimes be annoyed but would never truly be angry and never ever abandon him do you hear me netflix

he could have all the company in the world, but he chose to stay with the outcast, the brewing, dangerous man who is unwanted and unwelcomed by society, and never regretted it

In conclusion Jaskier is a very special being and means the world to me

#I'm sure there's more to say about him but i can't remember everything about the books #barely anything tbh just that i liked them and they were funny #witcher books brainrot #the witcher #baptism of fire #jaskier #dandelion #julian pankratz #joey batey #joey batey was the perfect jaskier btw #just treat him better #geralt #geralt of rivia #yennefer of vengerberg #the witcher netflix #henry cavill #anya chalotra #geraskier #the witcher books

[help-help-i-need-an-adult]

I think I need a fanfiction where Jaskier is like 30 and an established professor (traveling bard career didnt pan out as planned. He’s an excellent teacher but does still travel some) at Oxenfurt and meets a fresh out of Kaer Morhen 17ish year old Geralt.

And baby Geralt sees this very attractive older man who is nice to him and buys him a drink. Discovers he’s a bard with no self defense training, and takes it upon himself to make sure this very kind very pretty human doesn’t die. Jaskier thinks it’s adorable that Geralt follows him around like a lost puppy. (Young Henry Cavil levels of adorable here)

Young Gerlat who hasn’t had all his hope and sense of being a hero kicked out of him yet having Jaskier “I will stab you if you insult my Witcher” the Bard as a travel companion within months of leaving the keep.

Young Geralt actually openly loving the professor’s songs.

Jaskier practicing lectures he’s planning on Geralt as they travel and Geralt gets the best education as a result.

Jaskier holding Geralt as he cries after not being able to save a child for the first time.

Jaskier being the one with the power that naturally comes with being older and more experienced.

Geralt being a big puppy dog and eagerly trying to get Jaskier’s approval and being very helpful and talking more as a result.

The two idiots falling in love and Jaskier being conflicted about it at first because “you’re just a kid!” “Jaskier, I’m 29.” “A BABY!!”

Geralt having “toss a coin” to help his reputation from day fucking 1.

Jaskier being there to help Geralt deal with the mess that was Renfri in a way that DOESNT result in “Butcher of Blavakin” happening.

Jaskier being Geralt’s first love

Geralt spending his winters trying to figure out how to give Jaskier immortality only to discover he’s already immortal because “wait, you don’t look 60.” “Well you don’t look 50 either! I moisturize. Back off!”

Geralt thinking Jaskier is the most brilliant man he’s ever met when they first meet instead of thinking he’s an idiot.

Jaskier helping Geralt grieve his brothers after the attack. Helping him grieve when he lost his first Roach. Teaching him healthy coping mechanisms and emotion management.

EMOTIONALLY STABLE GERALT

Some Modern co- parenting au: When Ciri found herself in a schoolyard brawl, the teacher's immediate concern was for her father, Geralt. Upon learning of the fight, Geralt's first question was whether she had emerged victorious.

The school then attempted to contact Ciri's mother, Yennefer, who, much like Geralt, inquired about the fight's outcome.

Finally, the school reached out to Ciri's stepfather, Jaskier, uncertain about his marital status with Geralt or Yennefer. Jaskier, once again, simply asked if Ciri had won the fight.

At this point, the school abandoned their efforts to get more information.

Jaskier: Subs are so fun to play with. All you have to do is hint at what you might do, back them into a corner with a look, or grab their wrist in a certain way and they're a wide-eyed mess. Yennefer: What the fuck kind of Subway are you going to? Aiden: Substitute teachers deal with so much shit. Geralt: Guys.

It's not always easy being a teenager - and it's not always easy being a parent either. They are both a bit cranky at times.

#jaskier #geraskier lovechild #the witcher #the witcher netflix #omegaverse #it is not easy for Milek to move again and again and not have anyone else besides Jaskier #it's stenous for their relationship that Jaskier has to be father - playmate - friend - teacher - sibling - parent for him too #which also makes it not easy for Milek and his normal teenage struggle to grow up and gain more autonomy #and Milek is a teenager! his body is icky! this is not the age you want to spend all your time with your parent #(Jaskier is aware of that - he has been a teenage boy too - but for now it is what it is) #that being said: Milek is a soft boy. he is sensitive - and he may be like 'I'm a serious adult' but he is also still a cuddlebug #he's just still at the age where he thinks he can't be both

@after-the-end-times

Ah, there it is! I saw a post like this the other day and I could not, for the life of me find it back, so I'm glad I get to share my thoughts about this after all (not that anything would've stopped me) Prepare for the essay, I never keep things short!

The Rockrose and the Thistle, is in my opinion a love song of sorts, but a different kind of love song that Extraordinary Things is, focused on the first part of it. Both songs are very similar in more ways than just recurring notes. Both songs are written in Dminor. (wheras Extraordinary Things has Minor Melodic elements that raises the 6th note to create the G major chord he plays when he sings the lyrics ‘extraordinary things’ and sings an A on top which sounds really pretty and immediately caught my ear) 

The notes everyone is referring to are in the intro of Extraordinary Things, D C D E F E F G A B♭ A G A  (I put it on a scale because I can and I’m a nerd. I also love the harmonies)

And it doesn’t just come back in the Rockrose and the Thistle, there’s two other songs written in Dminor in the Horror and the Wild and that is The Horror and the Wild, where the repetition of these tones are beautifully audible in Madeleine’s ‘You are the son of every dressing up box’ and Farewell Wanderlust, where they immediately accentuate that B♭ (which is the 6th note of the Dminor scale) in instrumentals. In Farewell Wanderlust they also play with more chromatic elements as they add a flat second note and a flat seven. The use of chromatic elements (half note distances) isn’t new for Joey and Madeleine and in my opinion it just adds a lot to the musicality of it all, it’s clever, it immediately catches my ear, it’s subtle things like that that make me keep coming back to their music. Rather than a melodic minor scale, Joey could’ve just added that half note distance to add a major G chord to his scale, because the use of major chords in minor scales is just chef’s kiss in my musical opinion, especially in combination with the words he sings. The notes he uses are not uncharacteristic for Joey’s music.

NOW LISTEN, I LOVE this ask because it means I can break down every aspect of what I love about Joey’s singing and what different things I love about Jaskier’s singing. Because oh my god the TALENT, to still make people go ‘wait I just found out that Joey Batey sings both in the Amazing Devil and as Jaskier in the Witcher’ to this day astonishes me and I’m never surprised when someone stumbles upon that realization. The breathiness he uses on his voice in both the Rockrose and the Thistle (and more TAD songs) and Extraordinary Things blows my mind. But there’s a difference to the way he uses it in both songs, let me try to explain. He sings with an aspirated voice (Which means to sing with a breathy voice) in The Rockrose and the Thistle, but in Extraordinary Things, it feels like sometimes he is just breathless and it’s so beautiful and small and soft and intimate, considering the words he’s singing. We, as singers at the conservatory, were taught to make our breaths as inaudible as possible, to remove as much breath from our voices as possible, when singing on record. So needless to say it is a DELIGHT to hear Joey just put his whole heart and soul into every breath he takes, he’s considerate of every syllable, the volume of his voice, the clearness or lack thereof, the shakiness of his breaths fucking kill me dead… ALSO what astonishes me the most about the difference between his TAD songs and his Jaskier songs is the change in vibrato. Jaskier uses more vibrato in his voice than Joey does in the Amazing Devil and I go INSANE about that because my teachers have always said that vibrato is a hard thing to control and requires a lot of training and he’s just out there, mending it to his will as if it is no big deal, like :-) King? I’m jealous, hello? 

I’ve nothing else to say about this for now (lies) it’s already become a full on essay, so I hope this satisfies your needs for now lmao

ok maybe this: ciri is destined to disappear, and then one day return, claim a grand unifying throne of the north, and save them all. she starts her hopping through space and time, saying goodbye to her little family, with little control over if she'll ever see them again, knowing that when her powers do allow her to come back, it will be the Time Of Her Great Return.

her parents know she's capable, but they also know she'll need all the help she can get once the time of her destiny arrives. so, using every ounce of power she has, yen puts herself and geralt into a sort of stasis which only ciri can break, so that when the time comes ciri will have her witch and her knight as a form of protection.

she doesnt have the power to do this with anyone else. the two of them lay in their tomb, unaware of the passing centuries, not knowing if they'll ever be woken.

when ciri does finally return, and find her parents, and wake them, they set out on their quest. along the way they find a talented musician, a headstrong young redhead, and a severe older woman, who they're all drawn to for seperate reasons, seeing echos of their past in new forms, in this new world, each giving them motivation to change what needs to be changed, save what can be saved

the ragtag team draw together to get ciri on her rightful throne, even as the burden of leadership feels like little more than a tightening noose as ciri gets closer and closer to fulfilling her destiny
