I don’t do the game at all, but I have read astolat’s Witcher fics. ��
Let me tell you, wanting to understand those is Why I Am Here.
Worth it!
Really, though, there’s a bunch of stuff that’s only in W3 that is really pretty entertaining. I am enjoying, a lot, the weary-wary-Polite Eyebrows thing Game!Geralt does when peasants ask him for bonkers shit. It’s super #relatable. Netflix!Geralt absolutely would not help an old woman get her frying pan back, or when a man solemnly proclaims himself a freak, would not also claim the label and then give him a lecture on how lycanthropy really is okay. (The man, by the way, is not a werewolf, but rather is gay. Geralt seems slightly disappointed, clearly having had his heart set on the man being a werewolf instead. OK, Netflix!Geralt might do that too, though; I can see HCav’s version cautiously lighting up at the thought of a true lycanthrope and then being disappointed by garden-variety human sexual preferences instead. How can you call yourself a freak, sir, when you have no particular powers? Sucking cock is probably the least weird thing I do, buddy.)
But, I would not be bothering were it not for the fact that sometimes watching the scenery from behind Geralt as he runs around is the only time I get to get out of the house in the week, so. (I was contented to read occasional recaps of things I thought might be useful in fic, before this, and that’s more than enough.)

ooooooh, now I wanna just make mac and cheese and the hot meat sauce and say to hell with the rest of the garbage plate….
My dear, you have possibly cracked the code of the garbage plate. You just take food you like and mush it all together, that’s all you really need to do. and then of course put meat sauce on it.
Mannnn my old standby order at Nick Tahou’s was that you could get them to do a grilled cheese plate– two whitebread grilled cheese sandwiches fried on the burger griddle and slapped over the top of the plate instead of hamburger patties– I always got mac salad and French fries with everything on it (the sauce, the hot mustard, the onions) and then drenched it in ketchup and sometimes A-1. Used to cost $6.75 or so, and you could get the plastic pop tub refilled for like a buck seventy-five. Oh and you always order it in a to-go plate for here because they’d give you more sides in the to-go plate, because it had edges and could hold more.
Nowadays I don’t think I could eat a real Tahou’s one though, I order them from places that uh use uh better ingredients. I would probably die of heartburn if I actually went to Tahou’s. I still own the plastic pop tub they sold with their name on it but its capacity is larger than the amount of pop I generally drink in multiple years at this point of my life.
oh weird generational/context note: UR students called it Nick’s and RIT students called it Tahou’s because the two locations had different signs; River Campus was near Main St, where the sign said Nick’s, and RIT was by Lyell Ave, which said Tahou’s. My friend groups spanned the two institutions (my Dude went to RIT; my sister took classes at both) and so I called it both things. Now, though? There was a family split, and so Main St is Nick’s and Lyell Ave is now called Steve T’s Hots. So IDK what the kids today call it. (Ha, side note, I am old enough to remember when it was an all-night joint, but only barely.)
