So this– I don’t even know where to start with this, but. Someone linked to this clothing site for some other reason. It’s like a rave/burner/stilter/EDM festival fashion site, and I was like “oh there’s nothing here I’d ever–” but I had clicked to see what it was, and there were some really cute glitter spandex things and like, listen I own a large collection of spandex glitter booty shorts due to my decade-long sojourn in roller derby.
And I discovered this https://coquetryclothing.com/collections/dragons/products/new-build-your-own-dragon-crop?variant=29434077118551, which like, I… don’t know… if any of y’all know my email address… it contains the word “dragon” in it because of an old obsession…. and like…. oh no I. I need this.
(Yes, I have ordered myself one. I’ll share photos when it arrives. No, I don’t look like that mannequin. It doesn’t matter. This fucking thing is going to be shiny.)
Anyway I. As I was deciding on what colors I wanted this thing to be, I was of course thinking of Saskia, the current dragon-maiden of popular imagination. So uh.
This is a very nebulously-thought-out modern AU. Literally all I’ve got is that Saskia would wear a lil romper like this:
and like a set of the wings
(feel free to poke around that site and decide what colors you want her to be, I think her canonical appearance as a dragon in W2 is utter nonsense)
and her bestie Ciri would totally wear this outfit:
not that ciri is a unicorn, but she likes them, and I rather like the idea of this being a still-magic modern AU so Saskia literally actually is a dragon and just wears shit like this because it’s funny, and the pair of them go to raves and shit and Geralt is the earnest yet cool dad, and
I actually don’t know if I want Iorveth to be romantically involved with her or to be the like, Tired Semi-Uncle Figure, or what, but I just love the idea of a rumpled next-morning Ciri and Saskia still covered in glitter slouching down to the kitchen and Iorveth making them slightly-sarcastic but extremely fond pancakes, having surreptitiously texted Geralt at 4am to let him know Ciri was home safe from the party.
Anyway that’s not a whole story or even really worldbuilding I just like the cute lil outfits and the idea of these two young women who aren’t ever going to get to just be normal girls doing normal girl shit once in a while. (Your picture was not posted)
