geralt as an intergalactic bounty hunter type, his ship is kind of a clunker so he touches down on the closest populated planet out in the boondocks of the known inhabited universe to do a little maintenance and maybe pick up a contract or two.

he bumps into a creature he’s never seen before, and the universal translator in his ear struggles on some of its speech, but he gets that it’s name is jaskier.

turns out the planet is someplace called “earth”, and it’s filled with all sorts of beings called “people”, and it’s so out-of-the-way no one’d ever bothered to land on it before. after a series of mishaps, geralt begrudingly admits to himself the little earthling is growing on him, and he offers jaskier a ride, which he excitedly accepts, and the two ride off into space together

i still think you could make a geraskier story outta the lindworm tale

#and it would be both cool and funny as hell #geralt is the monster fighter who hears about all this and. when the king and queen beg. he sighs in a very put upon way #and agrees to help #and jaskier is this nasty worm prince who slithers and wants to eatfuck his new husband(hes a worm he isnt picky abt gender) #but then the night is over his layers are shed and he’s a Shiny New Human with Wide Eyed Appreciation For The World!!! #WOW did you know walking upright is WEIRD!!!! you dont have to worry NEARLY as much about sharp rocks!!! #he’s suddenly a lot less interested in being a prince #he’s like i wanna abdicate Right Now and go Explore The World can i tag along mr husband? #(geralt: no. jaskier: pleeeeaassseeee i really want to *puppy dog eyes*) #hes a bit wide-eyed and naive abt some stuff and is Entranced with the Beauty Of The World now he’s not a wormyguy #(rdj meme voice: he is entranced by the beauty of the world now he’s not a wormyguy) #and he is DETERMINED to follow geralt around. and his parents are actually cool w/ him abdicating cuz like #he spent all that time as a lindworm they did NOT train him to run a kingdom. he had no tutors. he would not know what to do #his personality’s done a total 180 he’s very cheery now #and dammit all. geralt. begrudgingly. kind of likes the annoying lil guy. #and they COULD get the marriage annulled and geralt TOTALLY PLANS TO ok it was a marriage for the sake of contract fulfillment #but. well. i mean. time gets away from them and….. the ex-prince who now fancies himself a bard isnt AWFUL company….. #and then a couple years down the line they have a REAL ceremony with a perfectly normal amount of clothes removal afterword

cured lindworm!jaskier missing his articulated ribs

#''it made swallowing so much EASIER'' he moans dejectedly after the third time that week of geralt performing the heimlich #when jaskier got a little too enthusiastic about a chicken wing

ok so like the thing is with a pride and prejudice geraskier AU where geralt is lizzie. is that the entire rude confession hinges on lizzie being told that her inferior status makes loving her a burden

and i 100% think that nothing could cut geralt quite so deep as being told that he is so intrinsically unlovable that even when he IS loved, it is a burden to be shouldered, and only admitted with the utmost pain and exasperation

Tags: [#like you can talk abojt jaskier feeling like a burden all you want but geralt has some REALLY deep running hangups about being unlovable #and thinking about The Confession Scene with young dumb full of cum julian being a prickwad because he's never really #had to care or be kind to get a partner #and geralt who is already cut so deeply by the world. who always knew he would never truly be loved and has just been handed his evidence #is so. its Soooooo. i want to chew on it for a million years and then kiss geralt on the face]

still obsessed with this you have no idea its soooo heartbreaking and chewy and good

i still think about the idea of alien scientist geralt who came to earth to study the wildlife before any true first contact. he’s not doing it for any nefarious purpose but he is collecting earth leaves to send as samples back to his homeworld. he has strong feelings about species that are going extinct because he just got here, and there hasnt been time to learn about them or catalogue them yet

Tags: [#like this is a mission he's been given and its given to him specifically #becuz he's good at being elusive and spending long periods of time alone and he's got a real passion for ecology #but at the same time he's strong enough to stand up for himself if something goes awry and he's spotted #he isnt the most diplomatic but whatever youll never get the perfect employee #and maybe the aliens arent sure what to think of humans. still figuring out how sentient they are. still figuring out if they want contact #but geralt isnt rly interested in people. YET anyway #he's interested in deer and blackberries and how poison ivy works and how many species of ticks there are]

(i should move these over in chronological order or something for simplicity but i like this one so everyone has to look at it)

Had some ideas of how to classpect a couple Witcher characters over on my Tumblr, figured I'd transpose my thoughts over here! It started with this post:

*sits bolt upright in bed*
yen as witch of time, ciri as witch of space, geralt as knight of blood

tags: [#inspo for witch of time yen: she needs to be a witch and a session needs a time and a space player to be valid #and ciri may be the lady of time and space but i think the space part is a bit more important #and geralt doesnt strike me as a time player sooooo]
