I am quite literally shocked people do this stuff. And I was feeling guilty about making up spit stories this morning! WHAT THE HELL FANS.

I always see the infamous advice of "If you want to be a writer, you need to read and read diversely", but what I don't see enough of is "If you want to be a storyteller, you need to consume stories and consume diversely".

I've seen too many wannabe authors proudly state that they don't watch anything with subtitles, play video games or read anything outside a very specific genre.

And it pains me! I cannot even imagine the kind of storyteller I would be if I had never seen Bleach or played Dragon Age or read Batman Under The Red Hood or heard Radiohead or watched Ted Lasso or had no choice but to read the Noragami manga or loved Winx Club or seen Fallen Angels or been shown The Black Parade or devoured The Famous Five or been forced to watch The Werewolf Boy or seen Treasure Planet or Atlantis: The Lost Empire or found The Adventure Zone.

Consume anything and everything you can get your hands on! You never know what will inspire you and what other stories you may find along the way, or which stories you may be led to because of one. I'm begging you!

See as a certified pervert I can say that Wood is in a weird place between too explicit and not explicit enough. Like if we are going full graphic sexual content let's go there. If we are doing coy euphemisms let's do that. The song is in a weird point between the two that's just giving lack of commitment to either.

That or maybe this song confirmed for me that I am too bi to understand the way straight women engage in sex with men

at this point I have to appreciate that I have zero idea how to make or keep friends, either online or offline

geraskifer pacific rim au, babes

@humii369, i’m a very slow writer and i did not expect this to be this long but here it is! i hope you vibe with these thoughts.

anyway, this is the third fucking time i’m trying to express my ideas about a geraskifer pacific rim au and evidently the universe does not want me to put this out there, but i will, i will

 jaskier is the one that brings them together. nobody’s sure what jaskier does at the shatterdome, but he’s a rich man’s kid, and one of his relatives is pretty high up in the military?? he’s known geralt forever and he had a pretty unfortunate first meeting with yennefer. everybody’s pretty sure they’ve seen him mess around in the training room and he’s pretty decent, but give him something delicate to hold and oops, that thing’s gone. i mean, it’s on the floor but it’s also in a million pieces and like, it probably can’t be used for whatever it was supposed to be used for.

anyway, he and yennefer have a shouting match right there in the hallway. jaskier’s an asshole cos he’s got family in high places and he’s a privileged bitch and won’t ever admit he’s wrong, yen’s an asshole cos she’s one of the leading scientists on this thing dipshit.

so geralt has to show up at some point to make sure his best friend doesn’t get gutted by one of their best scientists, and anyway he and yennefer hit it off. by that i mean they flirt outrageously because geralt is turned on by women/people who wants to kill him and yennefer is turned on by men/people who like to listen to her every whim but also look like they know how to have fun (i mean if you’re flirting outrageously while trying to defuse the situation from getting your best friend killed/in more trouble that counts right). anyway jaskier is like excuse moi??! because like there’s still a pretty decent chance yennefer is going to get some of her shady friends to murder him in his sleep (if you’re one of the leading scientist on kaiju of course you have shady friends).

but like after this, things settle into this weird equilibrium where jaskier is still hopelessly pining after his best friend, and geralt is also doing that, but also flirting(/getting it on??) with yen, and yen and jask become somewhat of frenemies (what are you, eight? / i will drink all your apple juice),

and then, one day, all of a sudden, jask is like “i think we should pilot a jaeger”

and then the other two are like “???”

“all three of us”

“?!?!?!”

but like apparently triple pilot jaegers are a thing now?? it’s not just that one jaeger?? and they need people to pilot them?? three of them at the same time??

and like jaskier obviously had insider info and like knew about it and has also been thinking about this?? he has full faith in his people, he believes that this will work

(there’s no question whether they’re drift compatible or not, at least not among them. yen might grumble and geralt might silently panic, but like, it’s them

anyway when they go for the compatibility tests, they prove it to everyone, so)

somehow yen gets convinced away from research (look pacific rim is built on the fact that jaegers are in any way the more effective/efficient option compared to other things, so someone think of a reason) (oh wait she can still be a mage, there can be magic shenanigans), and like she’s iffy about it at first, but once she’s in, she’s in. even when the date for their first drift session gets closer and jaskier gets nervous, she’s determined that this will be a thing, she’ll make it work, they’ll make it work

geralt is like a ball of angst, after all he’s one of the last witchers, an experimentally enhanced super soldier(?) designed to save the world against aliens but now everyone else also knows about it too. there weren’t that many witchers left to start with when the rift opened and he piloted a jaeger alone after his fellow witcher dropped out of it dead into the sea, and he survived, he’s one of the last ones surviving. he doesn’t really want jaskier and yennefer in a jaeger, but the world is ending and jaskier is on the base for some reason and have you ever tried to stop yennefer from doing something she set her mind to? no? well, don’t.

the first time they go into drift someone chases the rabbit. i mean this is a must-have trope. is it geralt? no, he’s the experienced one. is it yen? maybe. i mean, she’s got a lot of rabbits to chase about. is it jaskier? i’ll get back to you when i know his backstory.

anyway with all that excitement, they somehow miss that they love each other a lot. but only for a little while. it’s not a thing you can hide for very long in your own mind, when everytime you look at your loves, do something for them, it’s there. 

like yennefer finds some of that real good human connection?? love that she can’t doubt?? she’s important to not just one someone but two someones and no voice in her mind can tell her otherwise because she heard it straight from their brains. she felt it straight from there. (i’m realising now that witcher mages can read minds. we’re gonna have to put a limit on that.) and like, she knows her boys love her? she knows without a doubt? jaskier doesn’t think it, or if he does it hides in the corner of his mind. yennefer is his enemy ok. she sees it in his actions though. undeniably, when he always makes sures she’s present, smiles at her when she enters the room, however quickly he covers it with snark, gets her her favourite/contraband snacks. geralt definitely thinks it. maybe he doesn’t think it in words, but she feels it whenever he thinks of her, thinks of jaskier. he’s so filled with love for the both of them. geralt wants her to be ok. geralt wants her to be there. geralt wants her to be happy.

jaskier is a hot mess trying to deny and push down his illegal feelings for his two best buds, but like jask, jaskier, jasky, it’s not working out bud, everybody knows, especially those two cos they’ve been in your head. they feel it when you think thoughts at them and feel it when you move the jaeger together cos a jaeger is basically a gem it’s made of love. 

geralt. geralt hopes yen and jask aren’t getting too good a look at his past traumatic experiences but he’s been in a bond before. he knows how it works. if they live long enough, and they fight long enough, they’ll learn all that he is, all that matters anyway, and geralt is finding that he doesn’t mind so much, after all, it’ll be ok, he trusts them.

like i don’t even know if this is canon or fanon at this point, but at some point that drift bond crosses over to daily life and they’re getting breakfast, shuffling through the cafeteria like zombies together and yennefer gets jaskiers coffee black cos its that kind of day even though jaskier didnt even ask and he normally drinks his coffee basically as milk+sugar flavoured with coffee, and they sit down down and geralt grabs jaskiers fork when he adhd drops it even though he normally doesn’t bother to do it, cos jaskier does it, like, a lot ok, and it’s his responsibility. but geralt wasn’t even paying that much attention and he foresaw it enough to just catch it?? and they look at each other for a moment and we’re all not sure what happened, but there definitely was some sort of realisation.

also at some point/all points there’s a lot of bed sharing. jaskier likes to sneak into geralt’s room to snuggle with him no matter how many times geralt changes the lock/ups security/goes to someone about it (maybe not so much the last one cos he doesn’t actually want to-- what? no! preposterous!) and jaskier and yen like to paint their nails/do make up together and talk/gossip. sometimes, geralt lurks stoically in the corner reading or something (nerd!). sleeping over does not happen intentionally the first few times but what is jaskier if he can’t just fall asleep in anyone’s bed when he’s comfortable and yen doesn’t have the heart to move him even if geralt offers and after a while, it’s not on purpose, but it’s not on accident anymore, y’know

anyways, that’s all i have. at this point, i’m not sure how much of this is coherent/readable but eh, someone might appreciate it.

oh and one last thing. fringilla’s newt but like sexier and cooler obviously. i’m not sure what cahir’s about but maybe he’s also newt??? i mean is he evil????
