I want more Feral Disaster Brat Jaskier fic, does anyone have any recs??
he’s so textbook, like, poor little rich boy, but like– abused poor little rich boy, family trying to shove him into a mold he doesn’t fit into, teetering on that edge of having been raised rich and privileged and well aware that while he has access to all the money anyone could need, that access is precarious and predicated on fitting into a mold that would kill him by inches, and maybe he walks on that tightrope for a while, balancing suffocating obedience with ridiculous defiance, but probably he hurts himself a lot and does increasingly stupid reckless shit with it, and Geralt meets him just as he’s broken free of it and is out in the world broke and lost and free and savage and high on making his own decisions, no matter how bad they are, just for himself, fuck you dad.
(You can throw in an extra layer, when he meets Geralt, of him recognizing that no, Geralt has the objectively horrifying background, and all his own problems are really just his own fault and he’s so stupid to be so broken-up about the fact that his parents never cared for him because he wasn’t who they’d wanted him to be. They only tried to fantasy-conversion-therapy him, they didn’t, like, strap him to a gurney and literally mutate him or anything, so he needs to stop crying and get over this before this incredibly hot guy laughs at him, and Geralt’s like… I do not know how to process this but I very badly want this boy to stop being so vicious to himself.)
(I feel like this is really well-suited to a modern A/U, somehow. I’m trying to write it in canon-verse but it’s not really, well. I can’t go as far with it as somebody could in a modern A/U. And because of the constraints of POV I basically can’t even show it. So my lust remains unsatisfied, here.)
You combine that with the Bad Decisions Because Of All The Trauma Geralt, and you have a really winning combination of Disaster Humans who would make such beautiful terrible decisions together, and eventually maybe would figure out how to take care of one another.
