I continue to think about The Witcher. Any pronouns are fine. Definitely over 18. Icon by Laurelnose.

It’s also on AO3 please tell the artist how great it is

[image description: a cartoon. In the first panel, an arm and leg appear over the side of a ship, with noises of effort as Letho hauls himself aboard. Second panel, Iorveth, unimpressed, is saying “Failed by dh’oine once again. What’s your excuse this time?” Letho, dripping wet and dead-eyed, says “Vernon Roche is a katakan.” Iorveth, blank, says “What?” Letho, in voiceover over a cruder drawing of Roche arms akimbo paper-doll style, says “Roche. Special Forces commander. Stupid hat.” (The drawing of Roche is labeled with the same thing, arrows pointing at the stupid hat and special forces insignia, and finally an arrow points at his general torso area and is labeled “katakan”.) “He’s a katakan,” Letho continues, over a drawing of a katakan, Roche’s hat and clothes flying off it as it transforms, leaping at a smaller cartoon Letho with a “SKREE”, as cartoon Letho says “oh shit!” Iorveth, ears flat in shock, says “WHAT?” as Letho, offscreen, says “He’s a vampire.” Cut to the final panel, where the distant ship shows through a window with a huge speech bubble that reads “WHAT” in bold is coming through into a room where a puzzled Geralt of Rivia has one eyebrow raised and is making a bemused “hm”, as in the foreground King Foltest, not dead and rather smug, is petting the curly hair between the horns of a kneeling katakan, and is saying “Good boy, Roche,” as the katakan purrs blissfully.]

A migrating phoenix has stopped for a decadent sippy of water from a stagnant puddle in a Walmart parking lot and has ignited the years of accumulated fuel leaks into the surrounding pavement. It’s so happy.

I don’t even know what this is but I love it

The more I think of Astarion’s love-hate relationship with heroic characters, the more I think of this quote from The Last Unicorn:


And where were you twenty years ago? Ten years ago? Where were you when I was new? When I was one of those innocent young maidens you always come to? How dare you! How dare you come to me now, when I am this!


Now I’m unwell

The full quote from the book is even more heartbreaking:


But Molly pushed him aside and went up to the unicorn, scolding her as though she were a strayed milk cow. “Where have you been?” Before the whiteness and the shining horn, Molly shrank to a shrilling beetle, but this time it was the unicorn’s old dark eyes that looked down.

“I am here now,” she said at last.

Molly laughed with her lips flat. “And what good is it to me that you’re here now? Where where you twenty years ago, ten years ago? How dare you, how dare you come to me now, when I am this?” With a flap of her hand she summed herself up: barren face, desert eyes, and yellowing heart. “I wish you had never come. Why did you come now?” The tears began to slide down the sides of her nose.
