[Comes into your house and bakes you cookies cause I love you v much, anon is stupid and an asshole.] Ahem. Cookie number one. It's a nice big one.

Geralt can not only hear the creaks of the bed in the other room, the thick slaps of flesh against flesh, the heavy pants, the 'oh god, Yen, harder'... He can smell, feel the pure desire flowing; the intensity of sated pleasures - pleasures his bard and his witch, apparently chase themselves. Without him. Jaskier groans decorously, holding onto deep caramel hips as they thrust against him; and gives a smirk as he looks towards the door. "What do you think... bit longer, till he just has to come in- or should we invite our poor suffering Witcher?"

And cookies the rest are the edible kind, only wish I could physically bake them for you.

Mwahhhh.

Ohh this is delicious!!! Go on let your poor witcher join. Or don’t 😈

I am going to be thinking about this for the rest of the day thank you

Original and other elements 29/?: Phosphorus

Literature is like phosphorus: it shines with its maximum brilliance at the moment when it attempts to die. (Roland Barthes)

Phosphorus is an actual element - a  mineral, atomic number 15, and part of the ‘nitrogen family’ of Group 15, along with nitogen, arsenic, antimony and bismuth.  It’s never mentioned or seen in the series.

First isolated in 1669, it can be found in the earth’s crust, is known to be present in some stars, and in human biology (urine, bone ash etc).  It emits a faint glow on exposure to oxygen, hence the name which means “light-bearer” in Greek - or Lucifer, in Latin, and is also known as “the Devil’s element” due to its tendency to spontaneously combust in air.  It is found in two main forms, white and red.  Red is the more stable and safer.  (It can also be found as black and violet phosphorus.)

It has been used in making matches since 1830, first with the more dangerous white phosphorus (the source of the infamous “phossy jaw” that affected match workers in the late 19th C), and then with the safer red.  It is also used in incendiaries by the military.

Phosphorus is vital to human life and found in foods such as milk, meat, and soya.  It’s also used as a fertiliser, in detergents, nerve agents, pesticides, food additives, to add acidity to soft drinks such as Coca-Cola, in baking powder, sodium lamps, and toothpaste.

A fascinating element, in short, and one that would be interesting to play around with in fic.  Who’s up for the challenge?

For @snickety-lemons who came up with the idea for this element and casting; and also @pedanther who backed them up on it with helpful info. <3

HELLO I AM HERE TO TALK ELEMENTS WITH YOU!!!!

First of all, I love your moodboards, they're giving me so much happiness and life.

And second of all, just the other day I was enjoying 'Columbo Goes To The Guillotine' where Anthony Andrews of Brideshead Revisited; and many other credits was the villain.

And it was occurring to me, how excellent he would be in Sapphire and Steel. Now the question just remains, as to which element... I'm going to look through the PT myself, but I'd dearly love any ideas you might have on that as well!

@snickety-lemons

Yaaay! My plan to annoy the void into talking back to me worked! <3 (I feel Steel would disapprove of this plan...)

And also thank you! I love speculating on what other 'elements' might be like and I'm glad the moodboards are being fun for you too.

But, yes, let's talk of elements and other things!

Anthony Andrews is someone I've seen in a few things (although not Brideshead). I'd not considered him before, but I can definitely see it, yes!

Which one is a really good question, though. Don't forget you don't just have the periodic table to play with, there are minerals and alloys running around here calling themselves elements, including

Oh, yeah, these two eponymous pretenders. ;-p

Some at least vaguely canonical ones not yet done include Platinum and 'Brass' (the latter may not be 'real' or currently extant, though, given Sapphire's reaction to giving that human any other 'element's 'powers' in A5).

Some elements that have turned up in fic so far that I know of, but which I haven't yet done a moodboard for include Acanthite, Magnesium, Helium, Indium, Iodine, Ruthenium, Bloodstone, and Tantalum, plus a few Transuranics - Americium, Flerovium, Lawrencium, Livermorium, Neptunium, and Uranium.

But this takes much Googling of possible elements/minerals/alloys and frowning at wikipedia... XD

Fayeeeeeee my beloved. Your trademark is The Love. I'm gonna try to explain, everything you do and make is s o beautiful and like- whatever it is you are absolutely smitten with and devoted to it. if there's a sunset and it's being watched by your favorite pairing YOU LOVE THAT SUNSET! YOU LOVE THEM! the raw power and magnificence is there for us to see because you're showing us your view.

If there's this same pairing having the most amazing sex every way under the sun that they can, YOU LOVE THEM!

There are songs and your voice and your fingers say this is the best goddamn song ever, you love that song!

Hold on to that love, it is such a precious thing and it will be there even when life is rough on you- I promise there will be time yet for all the things you want to accomplish, because you love them.

And thank you for sharing this love.

Okay but genuinely I could cry this is beautiful. I don’t even know what to say to this other than I love you!!!!!!! 💛💛💛

also for the wip tag game, s1 Geraskier smut, eheh😌

(somebody's gotta do it, and it might as well be meee...)

Oh yes.

Bicurious Jaskier and Geralt who is more than happy to indulge his curiosity. Exists mostly in random lines but this is one I can write in like a day in between my larger wips. This is completely self indulgent ngl but isn’t that the whole point of smut. And I’m a sucker for stories of people discovering their sexuality.

4 and 27 on the weirdly specific/random asks 💚

4. mythical creature you think/believe is real?

There is a cave/waterfall in the hills nearby that is supposedly a portal to the fairy realm and I choose to believe that is true. I’m yet to visit though. It’s on my list. It’s name has changed now but it was once known as hell hole. There’s lots of stories of fairies/goblins/sprites around here and I like to indulge in them every now and then.

27. what’s your favorite or go-to outfit?

I am a big lover of a maxi dress and my pink leather jacket. Don’t know if I have a distinct favourite or go-to (unless leggings count bc I am lazy) but I did used to be a collector of vintage clothing that I still love and take care of.

Thank you my dear 💛
