first year on the path | thought it would be heartbreaking fun to paint the kaer morhen wolves when they were baby witchers!

featuring: a single moment where geralt is on the path for the first time, eskel has a couple years of witchering experience, and lambert is still a kid at kaer morhen (he misses his bros).

Writing a Witcher Modern Au and struggling on what Witcher equivalent jobs these motherfuckers would have. Looking for advice!

As of now, it has been mentioned Lambert was briefly a trucker (for ease of movement) but now I don't know WTF he's going to be employed as. He could go back to school for chemistry? Maybe become a bomb squad specialist? Auto body worker? Dunno.

Eskel has a modded out truck called Scorpion so maybe he also works in auto stuff. But he also has goats and loves animals. So vet? Game warden? Livestock vet? I dunno.

Geralt had a job that allowed/required him to travel as well and Jaskier traveled with him to do gigs. (Jaskier is still a musician). Geralt has also killed bad people/monsters as a "favor" in this modern AU. So bounty hunter? Hired muscle/bodyguard? Was he part of a "White Wolf" gang? He also has a horse (Roach) whom he loves so maybe also traveling game warden/livestock vet?

I'm currently envisioning the Renfri incident as him being hired as a bouncer for a club called Blaviken and Renfri and her gang entering to kill Stregobor and shoot the place up, so he kills them and ends up briefly in prison.

Vesemir is ex-army and owns Kaer Morhen (a deteriorating old mountain chalet) and fostered/adopted the three brothers. Other than that, nothing.

Aiden- no idea what his job was other than it required/allowed him to travel in such a way he was able to interact regularly with a traveling trucker Lambert.

Yennefer is a doctor of some kind, probably a neurosurgeon/ psychiatrist. Triss is probably a child psychiatrist/pediatrician. Guxart- no idea except he was in the army with Vesemir.

Please help me out any way I can! I'd really appreciate any insight. Only note is I don't want any of the witchers to be wealthy/super well paid. The fic in question for this is Herodias, it's on Ao3.

okay but now i’m buzzing in place with the idea that witchers who are mutated with pack-animal traits aren’t MEANT to walk solitary paths, and that’s why the wolf school is down to its final four (geralt, eskel, lambert, vesemir). of the schools, they have one of the better balances of agility to strength, but they don’t do well ALONE, not like schools like the vipers or bears do. 

like maybe way back at the start there was thought about “oh they do better in pairs” and they were allowed, but people who mutate little boys and kill 7/10 of them in the process aren’t going to be concerned about what’s BEST for their child soldiers, so the boys are trained for solitude bc then you get more coverage of them across the continent. 

and it’s not just they’re naturally really great at teamwork in a fight, there’s also the emotional/psychological part of “pack animals just do not do well isolated from each other,” and the horrible irony is that as their numbers decreased and there were less opportunities to meet up on on their Paths and travel together (secretly mostly because what might other people think, but they work better in pairs they just DO), their numbers just kept going down bc now you’ve also got the drain of “what’s the fucking point” despair of too long alone, which makes witchers slow in a fight (and, as is discussed in whispers, sometimes makes them just. give up. and stand where they could have dodged) (and no one knows for SURE but the look in his eyes that last spring...they should have known they wouldn’t see him the next fall, shouldn’t they?)

and building up off of all of this, the way in which geralt would just be BETTER with jaskier. like he had extra mutations, he needs pack more than fucking ANYONE, and the way in which he would just be SO MUCH BETTER OFF starting after his first few years with jaskier, and the way that no one would quite be able to put a name to it (especially him), but having that connection, that person with him, would just make all the fucking difference
