meeting iorveth like "is this the game where geralt comes out as bisexual"

okay but jaskier learning REAL quick which witchers he can and cannot playfully bonk with a rolled-up parchment when he passes them in the kaer morhen library

geralt? will glare but not actually move. might take a swipe at him meant to not actually make contact. 

eskel? will smile with a confused eyebrow raise. might return a VERY gentle bonk when jaskier passes by again. 

lambert? jaskier knows even before it connects that he has made A Mistake. blood. pain. war. suffering.

HONOLULU (2001)

Heard Daniel was in this for only 20 minutes so I put it on while I had a late dinner. Other than that, I knew next to nothing about it.

This was my experience, in a nutshell... ⚠️ MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD ⚠️

1. Unaware this movie was an anthology of short films, I assumed Daniel either had a role that was minor or met an early demise. His segment was directed by Florian Gallenberger whom he would collaborate in future projects John Rabe (2009) and Colonia (2015).

2. Steeling myself for the worst, I was completely caught off guard when I realized it was a comedy. And a fairly funny one, too. No disrespect meant, only that Daniel keeps saying in interviews that Germany is shit at this genre. But here he was again surprising me with a good one. His segment was hella awkward—just off the charts on the secondhand embarrassment scale—but it was also (bitter)sweet and hilarious.

3. Saw way more of Daniel than I expected. What a Saturday night. HERE, ye curious cat. You're welcome.

4. Breezed through the rest of it, smiling throughout. The whole vibe—from the music to the clothes—is all so nostalgic of the 90s and early aughts. Some shorts are better than others but, overall, a good, light watch. Certainly more worthwhile than 7 Days in Havana, which is another collection of short films Daniel also stars in.

5. Was delighted to see a young Alexandra Maria Lara, who would later play Marlene in Rush (2013), opposite Daniel's career-defining performance as Niki Lauda. Didn't make the connection immediately, but I recognized her melodic voice.

...she's such a babe here, it must be said.

p.s. who knew this hot clip of Daniel smoking would come from such an awkward character in a cringe-inducing movie??

[Image Description: 4 quotes from plays and 1 painting. The quotes read as follows, 1: “Someone will see to you! The evil you are is the evil you get.” 2: “Klytemnestra: ‘If you kill me, you kill yourself. Orestes—‘ / Orestes: ‘You did wrong. Now you suffer wrong.’” 3: “He filled this house like a mixing bowl to the brim with evils, now he has drunk it down.” 4: “Menelaos: ‘No, don’t do it!’ / Orestes: ‘Oh, be quiet. Endure what you deserve.’” The painting is of King Agamemnon, murdered in his bath, with a net embroidered over him in red. End description.]

“Don’t let go…”

It has been a heavy week, and I needed a hug from Halsin as a self-soothing piece.

Did CDPR know what they were doing when they made the hottest polycule out of a bad ass warrior queen, a furry with blood lust, and the daddest knight around?

Or was it just an accident?

Thought this could fit in well here

What if Lambert were the older sibling?

The one wolf who hates being a witcher so much it takes him years to return to Kaer Morhen and many more to overcome his bitterness.

The one wolf who's incredibly brilliant when it comes to alchemy but avoided by all his brethren due to his awful temper and unlikable personality.

The one wolf who is so incredibly protective over their younglings that few others dare to argue with him.

Always ready to fight for the kids, snarling and snapping at those way stronger and crueler than them. It takes four grown witchers to hold him down when he learns that a group of boys will undergo the Grasses a second time. The grandmaster of the wolves wears a scar on his face from the time they discovered four witchers weren't enough.

Lambert is forcefully removed from Kaer Morhen. The children are watching when they drive Lambert off. Small boys, barely old enough to hold a knife, bare their teeth. For years to come they remember. The younglings turn vicious.

One after the other, grown and trialed wolves leave the keep behind, not willing to return home until they've seen him again.

One after the other, witchers return home for winter with their fangs sharpened and a feral smile on their face.

Kaer Morhen falls.

Lambert returns to the keep with his head held high. In the end he's victorious, in a way.

The Renaissance?

Or this scene from Final Fantasy XV?
