HOWSMYSINGINGĀ Ā Ā : Ā Ā Ā Ā šššØš ššš§ Ā .ā
@witcrā
āA healer, she said she was! And herbalist! ā¦ Shit, I believe
I neglected to get her name, but alas! We can get that from
her when we arrive. She said she was not all too far south
of the village,ā Jaskier would look back toward Geralt, blue
eyes big and expression full of a familiar energy.
He was infatuated with this woman. Unsurprising, given his
track record.
āShe isĀ quite the beaute, as wellā but weāll both have to see
her skills for ourselves. She said she did stock a good array
of herbs, so Iām hoping she may have some of what youāve
been missing,ā Looking forward again, he was pleased when
he would catch sight of a small hut not far from them.
āThere we are! And there she looks to be as well. See, Geralt?
Your eyes can probāly see her better from here. Isnāt she lovely?ā
The healer hadnāt appeared to take notice of the pair of men
approaching her hut just yet. She had long red hair, kept out
of her face with the help of a headband. Unlike many, sheĀ
wore flowy yet more traditionally menās clothingā wearing
trousers instead of a skirt or dress. Alas, she used her tunic
as a means of helping her carry some things inside.Ā
ššššš Ā ššš Ā ššššššš Ā šš Ā ššššš Ā šš
Ā šš ,Ā Ā atĀ first . Ā jaskierĀ hadĀ Ā Ā beenĀ Ā enamoredĀ Ā as easily as ever , Ā not even aĀ Ā nameĀ Ā to his lips but a story toĀ weave of itĀ nonetheless .Ā Ā An emotion .Ā Ā How easily he uncovers and cycles through it always a mystery .Ā Ā Geralt gives him a sigh ,Ā Ā followingĀ Ā despiteĀ Ā it .Ā Ā There's never any use in questioning the antics , Ā that lesson he'd learned much , Ā muchĀ earlier .
After all , Ā he isn't exactly against Jaskier beingĀ particularlyĀ enthusiastic about getting in someone'sĀ good gracesĀ if it meansĀ Ā heĀ Ā won't need to rely on doing so .Ā Ā People aren't alwaysĀ Ā privyĀ Ā to witchers . Ā Rarely , Ā even .Ā Ā Geralt won't sit and deny his disposition has nothing to do with it .Ā Ā Years of the torture make it difficult toĀ smile and nodĀ the way people expect you to .Ā Ā Especially when it only soĀ Ā rarelyĀ Ā works .Ā
They were much too far from Brokilon either way ; Ā healers were their only chance at finding some spare knitbone ,Ā Ā after his supply had fallen during a tryst .Ā Ā Beggars can't be choosers .Ā Ā Unfortunately , Ā the little house in the distance came into view and so did the woman outside it .Ā Ā Geralt decided it was time toĀ beg and chooseĀ indeed.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā ā Ā Ā Jaskier . Ā ā Ā Ā Ā Geralt throws his arm out to catch the bard before he says anything , Ā pulling him back far too urgently . Ā The witcher tries toĀ Ā disguiseĀ Ā the fact by shrugging as he turns ,Ā Ā not facing him . Ā But his grip on the bard remains . Ā Ā Ā Ā āĀ Ā Ā Nevermind .Ā Ā We'll find a different seller . Ā Come on . Ā ā

WHATāS IT LIKE BEING YOUR FRIEND ?
it's like an unrequited love
being your friend HURTS, dude. you probably don't realize it but your validation is so meaningful and important to your friends and it can feel like they're constantly pushing for it. it's unrequited love, actually, in the worst way possible--you may be a good friend but being your friend is like being near fire: if you spend enough time near it you may find yourself entranced by the fire, but everyone else seems to be averse to you. let your guard down. a relationship is fifty fifty.

Istredd quirked a brow at Geralt. All right, if that was the
mood he wanted to give this little visit, then so be it. He
shrugged his shoulders listlessly.Ā
āMy most humbleĀ of apologies. Shall I come back another

NOTHINGHEREBUTLIGHT Ā Ā Ā Ā : Ā Ā Ā Ā š«ššØšš£š£š Ā .āā
@witcrā
She felt an edge, just seeing him again. Last time, at the least,
Geralt had been unconscious when they initially came across
each other again. Visenna had had time to ease herself before
he came to, but this time? The anxiety spiked, and she had
no way of calming herself down just yet.Ā
And so as a shorter, redhead woman would lock eyes with
the white haired witcher, it caught the attention of some of
the villagers around them. The tension in the air was clear as
day, and it didnāt look like anyone had the gall to step in
between the witcher and druidess. Some would pass by,
trying to ignore what was going on.
Visenna hadnāt realized before, how tall Geralt had grown to
be.
āā¦Iām sorry,ā She would almost instantly concede.Ā āI had no
intention of inserting myself into your life,ā She was giving
him an out to this. This mayāve been destiny at play. OrĀ
perhaps mere coincidence? Visenna hadnāt sought him out,
and she doubted he wouldāve looked for her. She hopedĀ
that wasnāt the case.Ā
āOnce Iāmā¦ finished here, you can forget I was here,ā She
would attempt to assure.
šš Ā š Ā šššš , Ā ššššššš Ā ššš ,Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā itĀ seemsĀ destinyĀ does Ā Ā Ā Ā sit on his side , Ā sometimes .Ā Ā He'd asked for this ,Ā Ā hadn't he ?Ā Ā Asked to see her Ā ā Ā for her to seeĀ Ā him Ā ā Ā in the very light of day ,Ā Ā where he could wear the shame of his eyesĀ Ā proudlyĀ Ā to look right intoĀ hersĀ ā Ā see what theyĀ Ā mightĀ Ā have been ,Ā Ā once .Ā Ā He'd wanted that ,Ā Ā despite the ichor and the vile , Ā grey waste he felt consuming his very being Ā āĀ Ā refusing to let him breathe .Ā Ā Yet Visenna had left nothing but a trail ofĀ Ā lightĀ Ā behind her ,Ā Ā when theyād seen each other last .Ā Ā Praise and admiration .Ā Ā Those words , Ā as with hers now ,Ā Ā did nothing to salvage his lungs .Ā Ā Geralt clenches his fists , Ā finding himself too quick to look away .
ā Ā Ā Ā Why come up to me at all ,Ā Ā if you'd want me to forget it soon after ? Ā Ā ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā That isn't what he wants to ask .Ā Ā That question had never even comeĀ closeĀ to the list of things he'd considered ,Ā Ā finding her again . Ā Finding her theĀ Ā firstĀ Ā time . Ā It feels like cutting off a limb ; Ā an urge too thick to slice it off so soon . Ā Part of him longs in the cavernous , Ā traitorous parts of his brain none too quick to risk losing something he barely understands .Ā Ā Something sharp , Ā only glistening about as much as anĀ age - oldĀ blade .Ā Ā The dull edges only make it all the moreĀ Ā painful .

->@witcr liked this !
the sound of the door breaking caused regina to look up from where she sat upon the dark velvet chaise. legs gracefully placed in relaxation. an on looker would not dare to think she was ready for a fight. the long black tresses done up and out of her face , save for a single strand that framed her cheek gently. the supple leather of her pants under the dress made it easier for her get up from where she was sitting, the heels clicking gently on the stone floor. " i was told that they were sending a witcher to come get me. " the evil queen walked closer to him now, glass still in hand and unafraid. her dark eyes focused on his own as she took another sip. there was added drama to the act , a sigh fell from her lips as she smiled at him. " did they tell you what i did to the last one ? a very short story but i won't bore you with details , i imagine you have more pressing matters ? "
ššĀ šššššššĀ šššššššš , Ā Ā Ā toĀ sayĀ theĀ least .Ā Ā Ā in almost any other circumstance ,Ā Ā he'd leave it rightĀ Ā alone .Ā Ā nothing but politics and convoluted miseryĀ .Ā Ā but it'd also been failed by a witcher before him .Ā Ā someone who'd deemed itĀ Ā a witcher's job .Ā Ā geralt ended up with his nose just a bit too far into their business , Ā and lo and behold , Ā he's nowĀ Ā bodiesĀ deep into the infiltration ,Ā Ā whether he likes it or not .Ā Ā turning back now would just be idiotic .Ā Ā why he ever thinks himself able to talk his way out of things remains a mystery even to himself .

@witcr | sc
A FREE soul he is, never succumbing to the wishes of his brother to live by their side, a decision they have respected eventually, but this time is different; they want him there for a reason far beyond a family gathering, they would not announce it, but they throw the most generous of offers in return, promise it is only the first half if the Witcher comes back victorious. Nothing of this is known to him, ignorantly welcoming the silver-haired man into the bar, checking if they like the pastries of it since he is the one making them for now, only temporary though, despite the ownerās requests for him to stay; the customers have doubled ever since his bread and work has been introduced to the menu.
ā It would taste fantastic with butter. ā Placing some beside their plate, the smile on his face stays as he echoes the same words he does to those he serves at times, something not required of him, yet he loves doing it; he engages, never hides behind counters and desks. ā Enjoy your food~ ā
šššššĀ šššššššššĀ ššššĀ šššššĀ Ā Ā inĀ geralt'sĀ Ā vocationĀ .Ā Ā Ā Ā he considers anythingĀ Ā regardingĀ Ā any unfound entry in bestiaries asĀ sightless .Ā Ā in most of such given circumstances ,Ā Ā he'd reject itĀ Ā outright . Ā he isn't a mercenary , Ā and he'd be damned to gain any more reputation as one .Ā Ā coin , Ā however , Ā always has a tendency to speak for itself . Ā a voice that extendsĀ beyondĀ mere gold .Ā Ā no infestation of monsters could ever pay for the protection its armour brings ,Ā Ā and he's often disgruntled to find howĀ Ā toughĀ Ā it is to worm his way out of the cage it creates .Ā Ā he'd look into it , Ā was all the promise he gave .Ā Ā a warm ,Ā Ā buttered pastry isn't helping ease the plight he's flown right into .
Ā Ā Ā Ā āĀ Ā Ā this fresh ? Ā Ā ā Ā Ā Ā he ends up asking the man as he drops it down , Ā as if the idea of it being so has Ā personallyĀ offended him .Ā Ā it would likely be moreĀ Ā clearĀ Ā to express hisĀ Ā purseĀ Ā doesn't exactly support divulging in any more than stale beer and bread , Ā but given the situation ,Ā Ā he doesn't need an evenĀ Ā biggerĀ Ā reminder of the fact .
