love song - rainer maria rilke
"I tried to hold it back, you know."
A light autumn breeze enters the window and the curtain floats with it. Jaskier looks at Geralt beside him, a light frown between his brows. "Hold what back?" he asks, but can't bring himself to frown for much longer.
Because the afternoon is soft and the sheets are white and Geralt looks so beautiful with the sun tangled between his lashes, that he can't help but smile. A habit, perhaps, the way he delights in the presence of beautiful things.
Geralt huffs silently and sits up to watch him straight. Yet his gaze lowers at once. "This, now." His voice is hushed as if embarassed. Regretful. "I tried to keep you at bay."
Maybe he is waiting for an answer, but Jaskier doesn't give one. He doesn't even try, and it feels so heavy on his tongue, but he can't. Beause he knows. He knows what Geralt tried to do, he knows what he chose instead. He knows what Geralt needs.
And now, sweet gods, he knows even more. The taste of his kiss. The cracks on his lips, the lines of his jaw, the love in his eyes. The way he touches and the rythm of his breath. And he can't imagine a world in which he doesn't know. A world in which he didn't try.
So he doesn't speak, and only the distant, otherworldly sounds of the street fill his silence.
Geralt looks at him then, and shakes his head. "I never thought you wanted this. It was..." he pauses, a moment, and searches for words inside Jaskier's eyes. In some peculiar way, he always finds them. "You were worlds apart. I never thought you wanted me."
Be the one to hurt, so that you don't end up on the ground. Be the one to leave first.
Jaskier lets out a bretah that sounds like a complaint, and reaches for Geralt's face, warm and fitting inside his hand. Geralt leans into the touch like an ages hungry man afraid to eat too much, lest he cannot take it.
Why would you ever think that, Jaskier wants to say, but he knows the answer. He knew it when he came back.
Instead a smile, faint. "You know what makes a song beautiful, Geralt?" He chuckles at the way Geralt squints, almost playfully, perhaps expecting another one of his musings. But this oen doesn't need many words.
He turns around and reaches for his lute beside the bed, skilled fingers easily finding the strings, and Geralt stares.
"The chords," he continues, "never consist of a single note. Nor a single sound." He proceeds to play two strings, and they sound the same. Geralt can see why they always want him to give lectures in Oxenfurt. Jaskier doesn't take his eyes off him, smile wider. "You must play two or more different notes to ring them. And then you get a memorable melody." He strums the strings, fingers carefully placed, and indeed, a beautiful sound.
Geralt huffs a laugh. "So you're saying we must be pressed to make a nice sound."
Laughter. Jaskier nudges his shoulder and puts the lute on the floor. "Don't be a prick! I know you understand."
He does. Because before Jaskier can properly look at him again, he pulls him into a kiss, deep and warm like syrup, a hand reaching for his nape to keep him close, and Jaskier sighs, and smiles.
Then, a question. A golden stare melting in the setting sun. "What about our song then?" Geralt smirks and watches as the bard rolls his eyes. Fond. "What do you think of it?"
Tune. Press. Strum.
Jaskier's eyes crinkle like lake waves with his smile and he presses another kiss on Geralt's lips, short and blissful.
"I think it's the sweetest song I've ever heard."

jaskier growth:
season 1, episode 2, Toss a Coin to Your Witcher:
From when the White Wolf fought A silver-tongued devil His army of elves At his hooves did they revel
They came after me With masterful deceit Broke down my lute And they kicked in my teeth
...
At the edge of the world Fight the mighty horde That bashes and breaks you And brings you to mourn
...
He thrust every elf Far back on the shelf High up on the mountain From whence it came

VS
the witcher: blood origin, episode 4, Song of the Seven:
Forget what they've told you, for history's fine glow Is tarnished by those who don't want you to know The power of your stories, your songs, and yourselves To take back the land for the dwarves and the elves
So sing loud and proud the song of the seven Be you halfling or gnome, be your dwarven or elven You carry their stories; no oppressor can hide them Carry their glories and rise; we will rise

ok so among every bunch of roommates there will be at least one person who is unafraid to kill bugs when necessary (if not then GOOD LUCK)
In my case I am usually that person and my roommates play damsels in distress
Now, having started on the netflix Witcher series, I intend to sing "toss a coin to your witcher" the next time I dramatically smash a menace to room peace
yeah none of my roommates would get the reference but it's worth it

My online companion scored a hump-a-dump with Minthara and my character scored a stabbing with Minthara. The only reason my character survived was because some random sentient being in her head told her not to. Not only that, my character is Bard, her groupies are goblins, and I let Abdirak hit her *Shadowheart approved*. I think this is the rockstar life I always wanted.

I know I'm late but I don’t care. So in Jaskier’s song ‘Burn Butcher Burn’ he’s obviously mad a Geralt and uses the song as a way to get back at him. But it goes deeper than that because he really is getting rid of the ‘White Wolf’ hero he made Geralt out to be. When he first met Geralt he was the Butcher of Blaviken who everyone was afraid of and hated but Jaskier made him to the famous witcher that was (mostly) respected and didn’t chase out of town. But when Jaskier left he made sure to tear down the reputation he helped make. He burned all the memories erased the person that got paid and saved townspeople and left the Butcher that everyone was afraid of. Honestly it was the best breakup song ever.

Thank you so much for tagging me @soundsfaebutokay and @toss-a-coin-to-your-bard!
Fav color: Blue and green!
Currently reading: Always Coming Home by Ursula Le Guin (I'm loving it so far -- it's beautifully written, very interesting, and references a lot of plants I know which makes me happy), and also Uprooted by Naomi Novik (because it's much easier to read when I'm half-asleep lol). As usual, I am also reading lots and lots of fanfiction!
Last song: Inkpot Gods by The Amazing Devil
Last series: Probably Taskmaster! I am also (very slowly) trying to watch Good Omens -- hoping to finally finish it over the holidays!
Last movie: The Verdict, directed by Sidney Lumet and starring Paul Newman! Both the cinematography and acting were beautiful.
Currently working on: Sometimes it Takes a Prison Cell, my AU where Yennefer and Jaskier first meet in a dungeon. It's Yennskier-centric with endgame Geraskefer, just over 30k now, and I hope to maybe start posting it this week! I love it very much and am ridiculously excited to show it to you all :D
I'm also working on several crochet projects that will hopefully become Christmas gifts!
I'll tag @karolincki @elder-flower @dreamofbecoming @wanderlust-t @samstree @seidenbros @finleycannotdraw @endrega23 @wherethewordsare and anyone else who feels like it!

Ah! Nothing beats a wonderful collab between friends. And @breadstickcat​ and I have done up a collab together based on a video on how different classes fire an arrow, but this time we had Chip, our lovely ninja lad, with a gun shooting like a bard. Which apparently includes a bit of pole dancing. Is this necessary for him to shoot like this? No, but he looks pretty damn cool doing it. And breadstick cat did an amazing job lining and colouring him!  Basework she worked from.
Tumblr media
Teamwork really does make the dream work.  Again! I’m glad we did this collab!

Did I just go around to every area where I know there are NPCs to busk to get my achievement before tackling the Gauntlet of Shar/Moonrise Towers? Yes. Yes I did.
A bard has to have their priorities straight.

I’m not saying I was singing “Burn Butcher Burn” when I was coming up with this candle blend... but I might have been. (scent: hops, aged whiskey, beer & tobacco) https://www.serpentandflame.com/products/the-bard-candle-hops-whiskey-smoke
