I need to scream about Cat Witcher Jaskier AU.
Once upon a time after The Mountain, Jaskier fell into the hands of a sorcerer fucking with Witcher mutagens. He experimented on Jaskier, and when he thought he failed, left him in a ditch. Jaskier wandered aimlessly, barely alive and unfamiliar with his new body, until Geralt found him. He took him to Kaer Morhen, where they figured out that he had been pumped full of Cat Witcher mutagen. Aiden, who was wintering with Lambert and found him cute, started to train him.
In this AU, Jaskier’s heart was shattered to pieces along with the remains of his old life. He didn’t know how to be Jaskier again, and he carried so much anger towards Geralt and the rest of the world for what had happened. But little by little Geralt helps him bloom again. It isn’t easy and he fucks up a lot. Eventually though they both realize what they mean to each other after Geralt almost dies taking down a fork tail.
I’ve written Geralt in a lot of different scenarios, but I can safely say this is the one where he is the most in love with Jaskier. And that is no small feat because I ALWAYS play these two together! In this au Geralt has learned so much about loss, love, and showing appreciation for those who may not be there tomorrow, he would do ANYTHING for Jaskier, and (much like canon) would do anything for his family.
@cowboybuttconnoisseur and I have a lot of drama planned but I just can’t wait for them to get married because THEY ARE SO IN LOOOOOOVE!!!!
Okay I’m done rambling now maybe one day I’ll write fanfic based on this lol.
