spielzeugkaiser:jaskier-cult:spielzeugkaiser:more bear!Jaskier content!You know when bears (and wolves, in that case) are the most dangerous? When they perceive a threat to their offspring.Or: the only time Jaskier will be proactively hunting. and it’s not necessarily monstersmama bear Jaskier!! this is so beautiful and i love imagining protective Jaskier. like, others would tease him for being a witcher who doesn’t like to fight, and how he runs away from everything, up until they see how ruthless he can be when protecting young children and those he sees as his own young and aaAAhhahha*kisses* i loved opening Tumblr to this <3Oh, I had to reply to this, ‘cause, firstly: the title of this file was literally “mama bear jask” and I cried a little, but also.It is absolutely clear for me that Jaskier does protect his family, he started to pick up his training for Geralt and he is very fierce (if he has to be) if it comes to Ciri, but.What about other people? (And I never really thought about that!!). Orphans and kids and the weak and defenseless, and. Geralt is already like that, he kills monsters without taking coin, he does help people that come and ask for his aid-But what does Jaskier do? Because I don’t think he ever stood by and watched injustice happen, he used this words and his songs, but. What weapon does he pick now?Like, I always said, at the core, when it comes down to it, Jaskier is a bard. Jaskier is a bard, will always stay a bard, and he will never voluntarily go on hunts, or start taking contracts, or seek anything of that sort out. (He left Julian, the scared little kid who got turned into a witcher, behind.) But I think, the farther we go in this AU time wise, the more blurry the lines might get, the more smudged it really is. Spending time at kaer morhen at the winters, becoming part of the family, being loved and accepted just as he is, the parts that linger from Julian and the parts that are Jaskier? (And I don’t think that he ever separated himself from his past completely, like. Jaskier the bard is kind, because he remember how cruel the world can be; Jaskier the bard doesn’t want to fight, because he knows how blood on his hands feel like.Jaskier didn’t simply replace Julian, he evolved from him - he wanted to run from his past and he never looked back; but it’s part of him too, even if the doesn’t always realize it.) So I think when the time comes, and Jaskier finds that he can fight, and he has the background of a family that accepts him, no matter how much, or what kind of a witcher he decides to be - and it’s the first time ever, that he is really free to choose; what does he do? Who is he really? Cause I feel there might come a time where he feels like it’s his responsibility to fight, if he can.(It’s also about Jaskier, embracing his own witchery parts more and more - not necessarily because he made peace with his past, but. Geralt is a witcher. Geralt is Geralt, because he is a witcher, and Jaskier will never, ever give him the impression of loving him any less, because he rejects that part of himself.) -- source link
