missbuster replied to your post “weird little real-life updates”

The musical life updates (and snurgling the dog!) sound lovely and it’s fantastic you are getting new doors. Are you in this current weather that’s tearing a strip off Kingston and Area? We might get the most snowfall we’ve had all season in the next 24 hours. o_o

I saw this and sort of chuckled yesterday because it rained all day but this morning i woke at four and haven’t been able to get back to sleep and wandered out into my living room and through the larger window in my brand-new front door I noticed a weird quality to the light, and so I went and peered out and was like

oh that’s a bunch of snow, huh

so. I guess so. We haven’t had to shovel our driveway yet this year. I mean, we have done so; we’ve snowblowed once, and I shoveled it one evening because it wasn’t that much but it was supposed to get real cold and I didn’t want to have a gross sheet of lumpy ice for two weeks, so. But anyway we’ve for sure got like five inches or more out there now and still coming.

Plow went by like quarter after 4 so at least they’re on the ball.

I’m bummed, I’d thought about playing hooky from work and doing some housecleaning and bread-baking and such but I feel like i can’t call in when it’s snowy and gross because my coworker’s got a half-hour commute and mine is literally three to five minutes, so.

[insert gif of geralt screaming I CAN’T FUCKING SLEEP with flecks of spittle]

It’s not that bad, I just woke up at four am and am like welp. so. 

I have a bunch of shit written for Meet Death Sitting (The Series ™) that now needs to be assembled– a ton of Geralt POV stuff set earlier because his ambush of Jaskier with Feelings in the first story came so out of nowhere and I wanted badly to prove that it really, really, really didn’t. 

So this little bit is an immediate follow-up to the first of them, which was Along Came This Song. This one is him going back to Kaer Morhen and getting teased over Toss A Coin. 

Warmth, on AO3, Geralt/Eskel, featuring my most efficiently-described sex scene ever I think. 

Geralt let himself kiss the back of Eskel’s neck, because he smelled good, and then that felt too soft so he bit him.

“Asshole,” Eskel said, but made no attempt to dislodge him. “Don’t leave a mark, you dick,” he said eventually, when Geralt didn’t let go.

“Fine,” Geralt said, and licked over the teethmarks, where he hadn’t broken the skin or even bruised it.

Update to The Ancient Sea: chapter 2, Insights

We’re getting some POV changes now, so, several snippets, and some observations.

Sometimes characters kind of surprise you. I didn’t know much about Lambert and didn’t expect much, researching him (he seems like kind of a jerk), but [personal profile] akilah12902 linked me to a playthrough vid of him with Geralt wherein he talks about how he became a Witcher. Well, shit; I figured on using him as a background character, but he cares a lot about why Geralt’s dragging little girls into Kaer Morhen. 

Geralt wouldn’t have thought Lambert would be so protective of orphans, but then, there were no limits on things the guy could get upset about, so. Shouldn’t have been surprised.

“Lambert,” Eskel said, “Geralt wouldn’t even fuck that bard that wrote him the song, because he said the guy was too young, and he was like, twenty-five.”

“He was eighteen,” Geralt corrected, and then cleared his throat. “He’s forty now,” he added.

Eskel caught a lot more out of that interjection than anyone else did, and turned to stare at Geralt, opening his mouth to comment on it, but Geralt ignored him and went on, instead, with the original conversation.

Meanwhile, 

“Oh don’t look like that,” Nerio said. 

“I literally, literally, paid for it with my ass,” Jaskier said. “Literally.”

“Trust you,” Nerio said, disgusted, “to somehow make a scandal of this.”

“What can I say,” Jaskier said. “I lead a charmed life.”

[bonus: “One does not understand sorceresses,” Jaskier said. “You just– try to survive them.”]

and: we get a new character to this series!

“Come off it,” Yennefer said. “I know you’re there, Triss.”

“I’m saving my strength,” Triss said back finally through the message portal, faintly.

“This is important,” Yennefer said.

Maybe I’ve got too much in this chapter, because there’s more than one new character. Well, I’ll leave the rest a mystery. It’s a long juicy update for a snowy Thursday, and a twofer thanks to my ridiculous early awakening this morning.

akilah12902:

So you want to know about the mutations Witchers undergo but prefer a text post? I have something for you. 

The Trials of the Grasses is what boys undergo to prep their bodies for the mutagens.

Warnings for some really horrific shit; check the tags and be safe!
