The new episodes of The Witcher = ♡♡♡! Watched all 3 of them yesterday morning, obviously asap. :D A handful of very excited random-ass spoilers, including some gifs from tumblr, under the cut.

➽ I'm slightly less heartbroken about Jaskier now that he got a hug. :D But then he also does this thing


and I'm like NEVERMIND. [source of the gif] Also he's soft about the slug/centipede creature that Geralt squashed, and I love him for that. ♡

➽ I love absolutely everything about the desert episode OMG. ♡ In addition to the entire "if I had a nickel for every time a character is lost in the desert and tripping on lizard, I'd have two nickels" situation (the other one being The Magicians), I'm just a sucker for all kinds of stories that happen largely in someone's head and you're not sure what's real, so this is my catnip. :D

➽ I ADORE MILVA and her deadpan sarcastic energy, instant fave! :D

!! I'm always impressed by people who don't need to remove their make-up still look flawless (or: flawlessly dishevelled) regardless!! Go, Jaskier!! Also, I'm really looking forward to how Radovid's new job might have an impact for our favourite bard's future antics; and a possible reunion-- but under what star?? Questions, questions, but I'm here for it. (But admittedly I'm always rooting for Geralt/Jaskier, and even Geralt/Yennefer/Jaskier, not gonna lie.)

I also liked the desert episode! But I was a bit irritated by the faster pace of the following episode, it was a bit like, "Whoops, won't have any Cavill no more, better put him to good use as long as we're paying for him," haha. Poor Hemsworth will have a very difficult start, not fair. (But I'm missing Cavill already.)

Haha, as soon as Milva popped up I knew, "She'll just trail along these idiots, just you wait," and I was right!! Looking forward to what they're up to next. :D

Also: just peeked over at your tumblr, and thank you for all the Witcher goodness over there! ♥ That's what I'm really missing here on DW.

Jaskier's eyeliner is A+++ (I made this icon basically the second I watched the trailer xD) and "flawlessly dishevelled" is, like, YES, that's him, lol. How does he just keep looking better every season? ♡♡♡

"I'm really looking forward to how Radovid's new job might have an impact for our favourite bard's future antics"
IKR? This sudden!king Radovid thing is such a cool potential direction to take their story! And I may be too aroace for shipping anyone in general (so I'm going for the & and not / version :D) but Jaskier with Geralt and/or Yennefer? YES PLEASE, always. :D

I have such a huge crush on Cavill!Geralt I'm aroace with aesthetic attraction going through the roof sometimes xD (not Cavill without the hair and eyes tho, but not Hemsworth!Geralt either) so I will sure miss him for the 'heart eyes' reasons, but otherwise I'm pretty okay with the recast and I'm quite eager to see how it works in practice. And how they explain it in-world, lol - when Geralt was dying I thought they'd have to change his appearance to save him or something, but then it didn't happen. xD

"Haha, as soon as Milva popped up I knew, "She'll just trail along these idiots, just you wait," and I was right!!"
I didn't call it myself, and I was very pleasantly surprised when she did! She's far too fun to watch to stay a side character, and ITA, I am so looking forward to this new dynamic and new shenanigans! :D

At this point I only use tumblr maybe once every few weeks (months?), but I couldn't resist reblogging all the new Jaskier content (my dashboard somehow knows what I like, lol - I didn't even have to go looking for anything on purpose and I still found all my favorite scenes :D), so I'm happy you enjoyed these posts too. :D
