EMBARRASSINGLY DRUNK DANCER WITH GERASKIER!!!

See my initial thought here would be Jaskier, but we know he’s suave and knows how to perform while drinking. So I’d have to go with Geralt, but he only lets loose around Jaskier. It’s quite hilarious. Clumsy twirls, dropping Jaskier when trying to dip him, hilariously mood-killing strip teases, etc. Unfortunately for Geralt, one winter Eskel and Lambert barged in on a drunken striptease he was putting on for Jaskier (he knocked something over and they thought there was trouble) and he’s never heard the end of it 😂

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by how much you love someone

you vs the guy he tells you not to worry about

"I'm not defined by being a witcher." "No," Jaskier agreed. "The witcher you are is defined by you. And that's a very fine quality, my dear fellow."

Or

Jaskier knows how to say what is on his mind. Geralt doesn't. They are equally bad at conveying their feelings, though.

Is it just me

Or is Sam Reid giving me major witcher vibes

I mean,

SAM COULD REALLY DO

I didn't knew I wanted this so much.

Now I do :')

Retro-futuristic magical-steampunk AU Geraskier, anyone? Anyone? Just me, then.

IM NOT OKAY

It’s too heartbreaking to watch. The way Jaskier crumbles at the view.

Guys T_T

His hands are shaking. 

Leave me alone T_T

meta analysis of Extraordinary Things because I have no life

Keep your words on ice

Your gaze lights the fire.

Pretty straight forward, Geralt’s cold attitude and words combined with his gold, “fiery” eyes.

They say keep on playing nice

But I have no desire

This I feel like is a reference to his bisexuality, being told to conform to the typical standards of relationships, or perhaps to accept his nobility as it reflects on his romantic affairs. Play nice and keep in line. But that’s not who he is as a person and he has no desire to pretend like he’ll ever fit that mold.

Why waste our words

When lips were made

For extraordinary things

Fairly straightforward as well, he’s tired of the fancy wordplay and the double entendres of noble life. He doesn’t want to dance around the way he feels or conceal his emotions. Why waste time with talking around how you feel when you can simply accept it. Which is very fitting as he is very open with his romantic life.

It’s not a want, it’s a need

It is paying no heed

To what others say to sing

Another reference to his orientation, however I also feel like this might be a small reference to the line in Her Sweet Kiss “I’m weak my love, and I am wanting” which could be an indicator of his feelings for Geralt adapting and evolving over time. They’ve deepened into a need to simply be around Geralt, even if his role in Geralt’s life isn’t quite was he desires. Geralt matters just that much to him.

The greatest songs are made up

Of unspoken words of love

Okay this line I feel like is the most damning, but possibly not for the reasons people might think. There’s a lot of focus on the “unspoken words of love” section of this line, but I was more focused onto this reference of his music. He’s saying that of the songs he has written, he has embedded his love for Geralt in every line. In particular, the his romantic ballads. He keeps his love songs inconspicuous, switching around pronouns and never revealing a name. Those are expressions of his “unspoken works of love”.

Of them I’ve had enough

With you I have enough

With you I am enough

I am enough

This is where we get angsty. His tone gets defeated and exhausted singing this line. He’s tired of being so desperately in love with someone who will never be able to share that love in the same capacity. He’s had enough of feeling like he’ll never be enough. Radovid has made him feel like he can be enough for someone, but that’s not quite what he needs either (with unintentional foreshadowing to Radovid’s manipulation). He wants to be enough for himself, in his own right, without relying on other people’s perception of him.

Drop the sweet disguise

Your heart’s beating too loud

The fairytale’s and little lies

Can’t drown out all the sound

So I’ve seen this be translated as foreshadowing for him and Radovid’s relationship, but considering that he would have only known Radovid for a couple of days at best, I feel like this interpretation is a little too loose and abstract. We know he writes his ballads about events he’s experienced in his own life, and he doesn’t tend to write about abstract concepts or future events. I feel it’s more likely that this is a reflection of the fact that Jaskier very much knows that Geralt is aware of his feelings. We know that Geralt can canonly hear heartbeats. Jaskier knows that no matter how many pretty ballads he sings and excuses he gives, he can’t hide his feelings, and Geralt will never address them, whether to protect Jaskier’s emotions or their friendship. It’s a feeling of defeat and almost a bit of self-flagellation. Like he’s shaming himself for daring to have these feelings, using a slightly mocking tone while singing these lines.

So take this heart

And break this heart

For extraordinary things

In this, Jaskier is tossing aside these feelings. He’s willing to let his heart be broken and his hopes be dashed to be by Geralt’s side because he sees that Geralt has a destiny and a purpose. He’s willing to go through the pain of never having Geralt in the way he needs because he knows that Geralt has a greater purpose, and he’s devoting himself to seeing this purpose play out.

It’s not a want, it’s a need

It is paying no heed to what

Others say to sing

The greatest songs are made up

Of unspoken words of love

Of them I’ve had enough

With you I have enough

With you I am enough

I am

I am enough…

In short, I feel like this song is very clearly an expression of Jaskier’s feelings of hopelessness towards his relationship with Geralt. He’s desperately in love with a man who he knows in his heart that he will never be enough for, whether due to orientation or feeling like Geralt has a far greater purpose than Jaskier could ever hope to understand or fulfill. He wants desperately to be enough for someone, and to feel like anybody could be enough to fill the hole that Geralt has left inside him. Enter Radovid, who sees this weakness and immediately exploits it to his advantage. But my rant on the cinematography of the scene indicating Radovid’s calculated manipulation and Jaskier’s emotional vulnerability will come another day.

Thank you Joey Batey for another total masterpiece of a performance and a song that will haunt me till I die. 🥹💕

I had so much fun working on this art piece for the Jaskier Mini Bang. Be sure to check out the wonderful fic it was inspired by, it’s such a beautiful story and I’m so happy to have contributed!

Okay, so I know Jaskier is a sweet guy and would never do anything to actually hurt Geralt, but concept; EVIL JASKIER!! like, he's essentially just like "I'm baby, but you hurt my feelings so die" like who else??? I can't be the only one who wants Jaskier to just beat the fuck out of Geralt, can I?

Modern au Jaskier would have a Tik Tok account and none of thou can deter me from that train of thought

okay, can I be one of the first ones to say that I LOVE how Geralt is actually thanking Jaskier for his help, he’s making sure to let him know that his efforts are appreciated! This is a huge step from the previous seasons, and after how the second season treated Jaskier. I will admit that I was nervous for this one, but so far I’m loving how much of a more active role Jaskier is playing in the story! 

also, Geralt calling him “Jask” actually got me squealing

I take that all back, Geralt is being a little bitch again. Got to attached to his bard, now he’s leaving to “save him” 😒

DID JASKIER JUST GET A LOVE TRIANGLE?!

My boy is still pining over Geralt, and there have been multiple mentions of him using the word “love” in reference to Geralt. So we definitely gonna get an unrequited love thing here. 

Then there’s the prince dude (don’t remember his name, but u know the one), who is now pining over Jaskier. But Jaskier is now trying to worm out of it, but he mostly seems surprised by his affections (which is really sad, to be honest). 

My guess, from where I am now (S3: EP2), is that Jaskier is going to choose Geralt, despite knowing his it’s unrequited love. Then, during his sneaking around with the prince, he will be cautious, but will eventually let his guard down. As he warms up to (seemingly) genuine affections, and someone who is trying to be his friend first (not the other way around for once). But the prince dude will be evil, or try to harm Geralt and the crew. But I don’t think he’ll want to hurt Jaskier, as I do think he has a genuine interest in him. 

Might add to this more later, but that’s all I have rn. 

We love to see Jaskier being recognized as a genuine threat, hell yeah, take shit into your own hands!! SEDUCE THAT PRINCE TO HELP UR *NOT* BOYFRIEND!!

DID THEY JUST GIVE GERASKIER THE GOAT TREATMENT?? MAKE JASKIER OF ALL PEOPLE SAY THAT IT’S JUST “PLATONIC”???? UM?? SIR?? HELLO???

Only to IMMEDIATELY give Jaskier an ACTUAL male love interest?? THAT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE CANON?? THEY ARE CALLING IT A CRUSH!!

NOW JASKIER IS MEETING MORE OF GERALT’S FAMILY?? OMFG THEY ARE FLIRTINNGG!!! AAAAHHHHH!!
