[europeanmusicals]

Musical streams are back! We’ve taken 5 weeks off, but now we’re back! Last time we streamed for 39 weeks in on Kosmi, this time I’m streaming them directly in my europeanmusicals Discord server. This change in streaming platform is because Kosmi didn’t accept a lot of video types and so I couldn’t stream certain musicals, but I will be able to stream those musicals through Discord.

Streams take place on Saturdays at 9pm UK time (BST/GMT depending on daylight savings). Some may be postponed by a week if I’m away. Not all have English subtitles so check below. More musicals may be added. Any updates will be posted on Discord. We are watching musicals that we did not watch in the first 30 weeks. If there’s a musical missing you want to see, let me know, we may have already watched it but we’re okay with re-watching musicals. You can take a look at the last shedule to see if there’s anything you like and want to be able to see.

[frogsman]

imho the biggest pitfall of the witcher games is that u absolutely do not have the very strong aggressively paternal dialogue like “you accused me of being a bad guardian, that i don’t know how to protect the child. i will protect her. as best i can. i will kill. mercilessly”

[sidomira]

[gayregis]

what signs do u hc everyone as?

i feel like @watersofbrokilon can answer this way better than i can but off of the top of my head... for some of them i have moon headcanons and for some i only have sun headcanons... 

the sign descriptions which are there to show what i think applies to them from the signs i chose for them are copied and pasted from https://www.horoscope.com/

geralt: cancer sun

Emotional, intuitive, and practically psychic (...) Cancer has so much going on in its watery depths. Cancers may seem prickly and standoffish at first meeting, once they make the decision to become friends with someone, that person has a friend for life.

(...)  Finally, Cancer is incredibly loyal, sometimes to a fault. Cancers will go to the ends of the earth and even against their own beliefs to help someone they love.

yennefer: taurus sun, cancer moon

Smart, ambitious, and trustworthy (...) Taureans value honesty above all else (...) Bulls get the reputation of being stubborn, but they're not always stuck in their ways. This searching sign is willing to see another point of view, but they won't flip-flop on an opinion just to make someone else happy. 

(...) With a rep as one of the hardest-working signs in the Zodiac, a Bull is never afraid to roll up those sleeves and get to work, and won't blink an eye at pulling an all-nighter to get the job done. But it's not all work for Taurus. Anchored by the earth, this passionate sign is all about sensuality, and is always seeking out pleasure. Whether they're indulging in luxurious massages, spending hours in bed with their lover, or going on a long run, Taureans love feeling present in their body and frequently need to get in touch with their physical self. (...) 

While Taurus has an intense internal drive, they sometimes have trouble respecting authority, especially if asked to do something they think is pointless or should be done differently. 

ciri: taurus sun, scorpio moon

Passionate, independent, and unafraid to blaze their own trail no matter what others think, Scorpios make a statement wherever they go. They love debates, aren't afraid of controversy, and won't back down from a debate. They also hate people who aren't genuine, and are all about being authentic—even if authentic isn't pretty.

dandelion: leo sun, cancer moon

Intense and energetic, Leos thrive on social interactions and have no problem making friends—although pinning them down to spend time with you is another story. Leos put themselves first, and will turn down a plan that doesn't fit with their agenda or idea of fun. This trait has gained them an unfair reputation for arrogance. But on the flip side, when a Lion chooses to spend time with you, it's genuinely because he or she wants to. (...)  Leos love the pull of the limelight, and they're occasionally swayed by what other people want (or expect) them to do.

milva: sagittarius sun, aries moon

Independent and strong-willed, Sagittarius personalities are all about going off the beaten path. Sagittarius isn’t afraid to step away from the pack (...)  Sagittarius is open-hearted, generous, and big-spirited, but Sagittarius is always truthful. Because of this, they may hurt others’ feelings, or may be called out for not having tact or empathy. The latter is not true. With their keen imagination, Sagittarius is adept at putting themselves in another person’s shoes, but they do not feel the need to beat around the bush or lie. You can trust a Sagittarius to tell you what they really think. You can also trust a Sagittarius, period. Unlike other signs, they won’t spill any secrets.

Rams may also have a short fuse. That fiery temper can be an asset. When an Aries is angry, they'll never play the passive-aggressive card. But for people who don't know them well, their temper can be a turn off. Learning how to work out their anger—whether by going to the gym every day, taking some deep breaths, or learning to chill before they Tweet their thoughts to the world—is a lifelong process for Rams.

regis: aquarius sun, libra moon

Independent and enigmatical, Aquarians are unique. There is no one quite like an Aquarius, and because each is so incredibly individual, it can be tough to describe them as a group. (...) Aquarians believe in the nature of change and evolution, and even though they're a fixed sign, they may not necessarily believe they are the "same" people they were when they were born.

Intelligent, kind, and always willing to put others before themselves, Libras value harmony in all forms. Ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, Libra adores a life that looks good. As the master of compromise and diplomacy, Libra is adept at seeing all points of view, and excels at crafting compromises and effecting mediation between others.

cahir: virgo sun, gemini moon

Virgo gets the job done without complaining. (...) Virgos expect perfection from themselves, and they may project those high standards on the other people in their life. (...)  Virgo has a rich inner life, and can sometimes seem shy at first meeting. A Virgo won't spill secrets right away, and it's important to earn a Virgo's trust. But once you do, that Virgin will be a friend for life.

Gemini is characterized by the Twins, Castor and Pollux, and is known for having two different sides they can display to the world. (...) Energetic and quick-witted, Gemini never gets stuck in the past and doesn't ruminate on what might have been. Instead, they move forward with glass-half-full optimism and an ability to always look on the bright side—and land on their feet—in nearly any situation. 

angoulême: aries sun

An Aries will always tell you what they're thinking, with a frankness that may occasionally border on rudeness. But even if an Aries seems overly blunt with their opinion, that's only because Rams value honesty above all else. And it works both ways. While an Aries may be the first to say if they think that you just phoned in a project, they'll also be the first to compliment you for a job well done.

8 & 9 for the 35 questions? i love how you write all the characters and it would be interesting to see which ones were easy/hard for u :D

Ahhhh, thank you so much, that is lovely to hear. <3 

8. Which character(s) do you find easiest to write? 

Ciri. She always screams at me then sulks when I write something she doesn’t like. I loved writing Regis, I felt I had a good grasp on Emhyr too.

I recently discovered that modern!AU Angouleme is SO MUCH FUN TO WRITE.

9. Which character(s) do you find most difficult to write?

 Answered here: I definitely struggle with Milva, and I don’t feel I have a grasp on Dettlaff. :) But I grew up with these books, they shaped my tastes and my writing style, so I know these characters well. :)

Thank you for asking! <3

you are a superb writer i cried 19181 times while reading your headcanons please do more i BEG

u sent this so long ago anon but looks like i’m in a hc mood so i hope that whatever randomness i end up spouting is to your interests (also omg which hc’s made u cry?? i’m assuming it’s the hansa ones): 

geralt: 

is it weird to say that one of his guilty pleasures is a warm bath?? it’s not like he gets too many opportunities for such luxuries (i.e., river baths are a lot less... pleasurable. & also dangerous... cause drowners, amongst other things), but he will always indulge in a bath when the opportunity arises.

similarly, he prefers hot weather to cold weather. even w/ all his armor, toussaint has his favorite climate/weather and allows geralt to wear his light armor, which i hc that he prefers to wear the most given what skills/traits the wolf school witchers seem more adept at compared to other schools 

boring hc that everyone pretty much has, but yeah, vampire genes were given specifically to geralt during the trial of grasses (bruxa tongue). doesn’t change much for him compared to other witchers except that he’s much more aware of his surroundings and has a somewhat faster healing rate than a regular witcher. his teeth are a bit sharper too, but not to a degree that’s overtly noticeable. 

general higher vampire hcs: 

almost all lower vampires have to hibernate at some point due to food shortages in the winter (yeah they could go & eat some ppl but it’s not like they don’t feed on the animal population too). higher vampires can choose to hibernate if they so wish (since they can control their metabolisms fairly robustly), which is why you might find a vampire or two sleeping in a coffin for an indefinite amt of time. 

if the HV decides not to hibernate for the winter/season, you still see a subtle shift in behavior. mainly, more general bouts of lethargy, increase in hoarding (insofar as what certain vampires enjoy having around i.e., regis might unconsciously purchase more books than usual to add to his library, dettlaff would buy more art supplies, & well... we know what orianna would store more of), a slight decrease in patience, increased agitation w/ strangers (human or vampire) if they wander too close to their home/territory, potentially an increase in bloodlust depending on the specific vampire (but nothing excessive), & more of a reliance on species-specific reflexes (i.e., relying more on using non-human forms/smoke/giant bat when it’s a full moon/etc.). however, on the plus side, they become quite amicable to friends/family/pack with more open displays of contentment and affection often occurring 

so in humans, we have the pineal gland, which is a structure in our brain important for regulating our day/night cycle & circadian rhythm. that’s why we’re diurnal, basically (thanks, melatonin). but HVs, being nocturnal, have even smaller pineal glands. tiredness isn’t regulated by melatonin release at night--rather, it’s based on amt of pluripotent stem cells (what i hc they use to regenerate specific body parts/limbs). sleep will come to them when their body needs it to regenerate in full. while outwardly, they may physically look healed, the internal anatomy of HVs is different and as complex as humans. this means that real ‘restorative’ sleep can come at random to HVs, almost akin to narcolepsy since HVs are consciously unaware of when they need to replenish amts of stem cells for healing

birthdays are celebrated by HVs--it’s something that the species took up from humans/elder species. so most HVs do know their exact age. however, birthdays are only celebrated on full moons, so an actual party/banquet/celebration occurs on the full moon closest to a vampire’s birth date. 

most HVs can hypnotize others using their voices--but this trait is specifically passed down through the maternal bloodline. i hc that regis & orianna can use their voice to hypnotize others, while dettlaff cannot. i also think it’s silly that cdpr made it so only bruxae do that screeching sound wave attack. nah. all HVs that can utilize their voice as a power can do the screech-y thing, but it is more commonly seen in females than males. 

hansa hcs: 

one time dandelion tried to teach a lecture-style lesson abt music theory to the hansa....... only geralt & regis actually listened while milva left when she got bored, angouleme followed her, and cahir fell asleep

cahir was actually interested in music/playing an instrument tho so later on, dandelion did teach cahir how to play a few notes on his lute 

also dandelion definitely tried to get the hansa to act out parts of a play he was working on (it was a romance of course jaskdfjs). angouleme immediately jumped to play the main character/protagonist while cahir ended up playing the ‘damsel-in-distress/love interest.’ it went about as well as you’d think, with angouleme ignoring the romantic bits and switching the script last minute to /killing/ the love interest ‘by accident.’ cahir’s ‘death scene’ lasts incredibly long (bc he really goes for it) & dandelion actually ends up changing the play to a tragic romance instead

at some point, geralt somehow ends up teaching angouleme how to swim when he finds out she can’t. he’s of course reminded of ciri.... up until angouleme, now adequate enough of a swimmer, pulls a prank by biting geralt’s ankle hard enough to leave a bite mark. it felt like being bitten by a drowner 

one of milva’s favorite moments w/ the hansa was their somewhat nightly routine where either regis, dandelion, or angouleme tell stories while everyone sits around the campfire, milva tending to her arrows, geralt and cahir sharpening their blades on a whetstone. it’s just a very peaceful moment for all of them tbh--and really solidifies their group as a family.

Heyy ! What's your opinion (if you have one) about gender roles / representation of men and women in The Witcher (games and/or books) ? I was wondering because your style of drawing doesn't exactly correspond to how Yen mainly and maybe Geralt are shown in TW. (A style that I find awesome, btw, I really love your art *-* )

ooh what a cool question!! I love these kinds of topics. under a cut bc it’s long. (also thank you!!! I’m glad you like my art ;u;)

I think witcher has some interesting ways of countering gender roles, especially in areas like women having their own advocacy and goals, and things like toxic masculinity and creating your own identity.

for example, I love that it’s milva’s choice on whether or not she wants to have an abortion or not, and it’s the job of the guys in the group to support her in whichever she decides. also all the main women are very different in their goals and how they interact with the people and world around them. also geralt’s entire arc of learning that he is allowed and able to feel and love and be loved makes me so emotional. becoming vulnerable to people can hurt, but it can also bring so much warmth into someone’s life, and yen and ciri definitely open that door for him to accept himself as a person, not just a tool for other people to use. he loves them and they love him and it makes my heart feel so full!!!! the same goes with yen no longer being a self-titled ice queen. geralt and ciri love her so much and she deserves that love!!!!

I also find some of the real-world commentary interesting, like how sorceresses have to use youth and beauty to make themselves appealing to possible clients, while the sorcerers are allowed to look old bc that makes them look wiser and just double standard. I like to think about yen going away from this and letting some of her physical flaws show after retirement bc she knows geralt loves her regardless of them.

however, witcher’s not perfect, and it does a number of questionable things that may have been seen as progressive when they were written but now it’s YIKES. for example, depictions of ciri’s sexuality may have been a strange attempt at a woman taking control of her own sexuality, but god she’s like 14!!!! a child!!!! the fuck!!!!! and there’s so much dubious/no consent and I hate it. also the whole thing with triss “using magic” to seduce geralt feels pretty rape-like to me as well, which kind of feels like a thing of “men can’t be raped by women” and “men always want sex” sort of thing and I’m Not A Fan.

hm

i’m thinking about the hansa again, and what their classes would be in a dungeons and dragons setting. milva and dandelion are easy. milva’s a ranger and dandelion’s a bard. geralt could have a custom class like blood-hunter or his own customly created class. cahir would probably be a...fighter? i considered rogue but he’s not really that sneaky so. fighter i guess. the same is for angouleme, but for some reason i peg her as more of a barbarian than a fighter. maybe it’s just because i think she’d LOVE being that class. i have no idea what regis would be. i’m pretty sure vampires count as a race, so that just leaves his class. which is ??? i dont know. i thought for a while that maybe sorcerer would suit him because of that time he cast a sleeping spell (at least i think he did? it’s been a while since i read the series), and then i thought maybe he could be a druid since he does seem to have a connection to nature, AND he can turn into a bat. so that would make a lot of sense. i’d definitely say he leans more towards being a druid rather than a sorcerer. mostly because . bats and mandrake. also he can talk to crows and ravens so like ? druid. 

and bc i need to , yennefer is a quarter elvish in the books but i’d say in a dnd setting you could just knock her up to being half-elf so she can have her violet eyes. but even then if u wanted to make her human with violet eyes thats valid. she’s obviously a sorceress. ciri would probably multi in being geralts custom class and sorcery as well . thats all thanks .

Once again I’m asking for your help with tags! I’ve been notified that tumblr hates the NSFW tag, so I’m ditching it and replacing it with a new one. Block the word “block” or “sin” and you should be good.
