Here’s the thing:
Jaskier doesn’t have a horse. I mean yeah, technically he has Pegasus but in nw and most fanon media he doesn’t. The man walks at the same pace as a horse every day for twenty years. And I’m sure Geralt let him put SOME things on Roach, but probably not much. She’s Geralt’s horse and needs to carry his things AND Geralt, no one wants her to be over extended with bard stuff. So that means Jaskier carries all his stuff himself which is AT MINIMUM, his lute, notebooks, probably like 3 sets of relatively complex performing outfits and road clothes, all his fancy cosmetic stuff, a bedroll, and his METAL coin money. He also probably has first aid things like bandages and potions, frivolous things like baubles and jewelry, food, water, and probably other bard stuff like spare strings and such.
Yeah, Jask is depicted as traveling without bags but that’s just not possible. He probably carries his own essentials and as someone who backpacks— that alone is usually 20+ lbs. WITH modern technology aimed at making things lighter. Thats not counting all the fancy stuff he’s prone to and his career tools. Jaskier is probably hauling like 40-50lbs or more of stuff EVERY DAY while mostly roughing it off the land and keeping pace with a man on horseback. Oh, and this is WHILE SINGING AND TALKING the entire time. Can you imagine this man’s lung capacity? To sing and talk constantly while exerting himself?
This is all to say: Jaskier is strong as fuck and fit as hell. The thing is though, he probably doesn’t even recognize it. Yeah, he probably knows he’s got the muscle and such, but he still is largely perceived as a delicate person. He PROJECTS being delicate. Being fragile and pampered and in need of the finer things. He projects capable, but not strong. This. Is. Hilarious.
Jaskier, having already walked 12 miles at a moderate incline carrying 40lbs of stuff without breaking a sweat (it’s barely past midday): Geralt I am FRAGILE. I cannot POSSIBLY walk through this mud. (It’s like a 3 ft section) I’m not a rugged mountain man like you, I’m simply not BUILT for this!
Geralt, staring at Jaskier who’s as burly as most Witchers and has walked the path w/o Witcher training for over a decade: hm

reading the witcher books after watching the netflix series is such a slap to the face (positive) mostly because of how much sweeter geralt is to everyone but also just because of. everything. I’m mostly talking about how he treats dandelion (jaskier) because the show did them dirty
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(all from the last wish and sword of destiny)
netflix geralt: jaskier we aren’t friends >:(
book geralt, absolutely unprompted: ah yes, my dear friend dandelion
and ALSO his dynamic with ciri is absolutely GOLD
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(-sword of destiny) like. god I’m liable to get emotional, geralt, stop being sweet
I don’t have pictures but his relationship with yennefer is also so much better in the books and get this
the geraskier mountain divorce didn’t happen
tl;dr if you liked the netflix series (or even if you didn’t) you should definitely check out the books. the characters are so much more developed and the writing style is gorgeous. I’ve read three of them since getting the series last week.

Modern Geraskier would be Jaskier in the sluttiest, most colorful fashion forward outfits imaginable, serving cunt 24/7 and Geralt in one hoodie/t shirt that’s falling apart and only gets washed once a month. Geralt is not serving cunt. He’s giving 1AM Walmart depression run with ‘tism rizz that only and VIOLENTLY affects Jaskier.

It's so crazy that it's actual canon that Geralt has a whole moral thing against killing humans if he can help it, like he will just put up with fucking anything without batting an eye but the second someone threatens Dandelion's life he's like "okay so you have chosen Brutal Visceral Death got it" and mows them down without any hesitation. He was going to kill Regis - a guy who had been nothing but a good friend and helpful throughout their journey - just bc he said Dandy's blood smelled nice. IF I THINK ABOUT IT FOR TOO LONG I START GOING INSANE THEY ARE SO QUEERPLATONICS DO YOU UNDERSTAND

I don't know if anyone already came up with this but wouldn't it be funny if it went a little like this in Witcher S3:
Yennefer and the Witchers are teaching Citi how to fight and use her powers but she can't quiet get the hang of it, especially not about the screaming/voice thing. Jaskier relucrantly sticks around at Kaer Morhen for the rest of winter but everyone is pretty much indifferent to him (he's just a prissy bard to most) and vice versa (cause, yes he's still kinda pissed at Geralt).
Then one day during traing:
Jaskier, finally fed up, from the side, in a snippy tone: You know, I could be wrong since I'm just a silly bard... but maybe somebody should teach the princess how to properly controll her voice first.
Everybody: *looking at him in confusion*...
Everybidy: *slowly realising Jaskier might be right and damn, why didn't they think of that themselves and sooner*
Jaskier *casually leaning against a wall, strumming his lute, not looking at anyone*: But oh, if only you knew somebody who could teach such a skill. Shame, really...

Thanks to everyone who participated in my impromptu prompt fest the other day! This prompt from @onecornflower got the most likes. I appreciate the inspiration! ❤️
