I did NOT know about the eating raw meat thing, and it literally just made my day.
I was looking up the potion toxicity stuff on the Witcher wiki [witcher.fandom.com and of course I can’t find the part where it’s mentioned] and I just saw a snippet about the gameplay that was like Geralt can hunt and eat raw meat for a stats boost and I was like hwat the fuck
and then of course I immediately was like well I have to use that because this is who I am as a person
you can tell though that I didn’t think this through until recently because I posted a chapter in Meet Death Sitting where Geralt’s talking about herbs that have vermifuge effects (deworming! something I’ve been researching in real life for organic livestock) and that’s a thing he clearly would not care about if it was irrelevant to him, but I’m leaving it in because well, maybe his teacher left it in because maybe Witchers who wind up being instructors at Kaer Morhen don’t take enough combat potions so they eventually do have to worry about parasite load, who knows.

b have i told you lately that i love your writing because i ADORE your writing, especially when you get to write about Gross Dead Animal Nonsense
I was just very sweetly told over chat that my #brand is that I write Hurt/Comfort For Grownups, and I was all set to really internalize that and adopt it as my personal marketing, but now I see the error of my ways and realize that it’s the Gross Dead Animal Nonsense that is the true thing that sets me apart from the many other brilliant writers of fandom.
I mean, porque no los dos, but also, I feel very seen. GUYS LET’S TALK ABOUT VISCERA GUYS

i love Jaskier so much?!
He absolutely Cannot Shut Up and I overidentify far too much
i actually did just have the thought that people probably expect me to like, mention Geralt, in the ongoing story, and I’m like oh right, but well, it might just be the Continuing Adventures of Jaskier, Underpaid Academic And Victim Of Fame
