I dont think I will ever get over Jaskier calling Geralt "my love" AGAIN in a song.

Jaskier song poll! (Hopefully) in order that they happen

Does anyone know if we have official lyrics for Enchanted Flowers yet?

[my-jokes-are-my-armour]

I made myself cry this morning thinking that Enchanted Flowers is a foreshadowing of the end of the story. And what could be this version of Jaskier's reaction at that moment ?

Why I did this to myself ?

My love for you will never abatе

For these memories will never fade

This flower you left behind

A sign of endless love

Resigned will never die

But do you know why

Because my fair Etariel

This flower's not damp with dew

But damp with tears, tears of you

Enchanted flowers will never die

So who is going to do the Lord's work and extract Joey's voice from the official version of Enchanted Flowers?? I want to hear it clearly without the woman singing in English over top of him.

Such a beautiful song.

Exploring the Witcher playlist and bloody hell - Enchanted Flowers is something special isn’t it? Even though I don’t know the words - it being Elder I think? - it’s haunting and sad and beautiful

Enchanted Flowers

LYRICS:

(in Elder:)

Me mein a te deirerede'n Eipynig.

Omilden ei ryndrere'nvort ynig.

I blath kwe'th t'eivith helshte ys,

me gainem ein te mein dereideth

thein,

gavole'n vort ynig.

(x2)

I ve shet enkwe thei,

I gweld blathana dwek ynig..

My love for you will nev'r abate.

For these memorries will never fade.

a sign of endless love

resigned will never die.

But do you know why,

because my fair Etariel,

this flow'r's not damp with dew,

but damp with tears, tears of you.

Enchanted flowers will never die...

I get how tempting it is to just label flower husbands as “toxic” and move on, but god they can be SO much more nuanced than that, it makes me insane.

I think something that goes largely unexplored by the fanbase is c!scott’s obsession with composure. he’s clearly very proud of his ability to stay calm under pressure and be two steps ahead of everyone else— not that he’s afraid to rely on people, him and cleo very clearly have that unshakable trust between them, but i think that sometimes he gets so wrapped up in being steady, reliable scott, never hot-headed, never spiteful, or clumsy, or nervous.

and jimmy is a very real threat to that composure, more often than not.

and i think the way their relationship functions in 3rd life, while steady at the time, definitely set them up for complications down the road. scott, for as fiercely dedicated to his allies as he is, kind of tends to handle jimmy with kid gloves for the earlier parts of their relationship. he’s not very good at the death game, but that’s fine, he doesn’t need to be, scott will take care of it— he’ll get them set up with armor and potions and walls and jimmy can do… whatever it is he does when scott’s not around. mostly getting swindled, if he had to guess. but it’s fine, because scott can be steady, level headed, clever—

i do think most of scott’s ribbing about how he doesn’t know why he lets jimmy do anything when all he does is get scammed half the time is genuinely all in good fun, (jimmy is more than happy to play the fool most of the time, if only to bring a little bit of levity to things) it is super symptomatic of the way scott actually thinks about him. i don’t believe he thinks jimmy is actually stupid or anything, but i do think scott doesn’t quite trust him to get anything done. scott would never in a million years let himself lean on jimmy for any kind of support, because in scott’s mind jimmy’s job is to be bright and brash and only listen to that heart of his that’s too big for his body, too big for this game.

and i think too often we forget just how much losing jimmy destroyed scott in 3rd life. you ever think about how wrecked he must’ve been to place 10th despite being a consistent finalist in every other season? do you think about how all he has left is the burning, white-hot urge for revenge from the second jimmy’s body hit the ground?

i don’t think scott ever wants to feel like that again. i don’t think scott wants anyone to see him like that again. i think scott tries very hard to love jimmy from a safe distance where no one gets hurt. and i think that distance fucking kills jimmy, metaphorically speaking.

(also, tangentially related, i think there’s something to be said for how instantly tango goes “we only have a short time together, your curse will probably get us killed, and that’s fine.” and how jealous scott gets of that sentiment. as far as scott is concerned, tango and jimmy are of the same niche— they feel everything, loudly, even if it causes problems and even if it gets messy. and god that just makes his blood boil.)

i’m just so… entranced with the way scott carries himself with so much confidence and it’s not like he’s insecure, he really believes that, he’s a strong player and he knows that, but also revealing any emotion he deems to be “ugly” or “messy” makes him start to completely unravel. the driving force behind him is always love and loyalty and protectiveness over the people he cares about, but he’s juggling that with being dead set on never getting so close that losing them will completely ruin him.

anyway, this is getting away from me, but i think a lot of jimmy’s frustration with scott comes from the fact that he refuses to let their relationship go both ways, and i think by the time of the infamous “say i love you back” scene in limlife he’s just exhausted with throwing himself repeatedly against scott’s brick wall of perfectionism. that, and the whole Situation between them in double life, which i could honestly make it’s own post but good god i need to STOP typing or this will go on forever. forgive my completely disorganized ramblings i just have been trying to get all this down on paper FOREVER
