About this

I raise to you, Lambert and Jaskier being siblings? Since they're so close in age...

hm

(love ur blog btw)

The Post in Question:

a) you should definitely look at the reblogs and tags if you haven't already, they're incredibly fun!

b) I've definitely played with the idea of Jaskier and Lambert being childhood friends multiple times before and I thiiiink I miiiiight have made a post about them being siblings as well. Somewhere.

c) Meaning I am all for it! With Sapkowski being so into his fantasy politics I always wondered why Dandelion doesn't seem to have any siblings, since that feels like a much more logical excuse for him to be able to be a bard. He has his cousin, sure, but an older/younger brother feels more sensible to me. Which is to say-

d) I feel like they could be siblings, if the Pankratz' had a buuunch of children running around. With neither Jaskier nor Lambert wanting/being able to play heir, there should be someone managing the family.

If you have two potential heirs. And one is sent away to die become a Witcher. All the pressure would naturally rest on the sibling. And if that sibling much rather be a free-spirited bard..... Oh boi.

e) (Thank you :) I made it myself.)

About D, i think even if they were only two boys it could still work out if we go in the "Jaskier become a bard and doesnt care about the family, who were dicks to him since his older brother was taken by a witcher"?

Like, Lambert was a real terror as a child, and Jaskier less than him, more on the "hes cute and doesnt mean to be disruptive" unlike his brother, which made the family "better" when Lambert was taken (less problem and can focus on the good 'child') until Jaskier became more chaotic and freeminded.

Then their parents (at least their father) were horrible to him as fanon showed many times....

Idk I think it would work out, since Jaskier would be disowned and their cousin could take on the Lord thing...

Or The males dies and Jaskier is the heir simply because they assume Lambert is dead.

And then cue Jaskier meeting his long lost brother like

Remember romance cards? Now imagine if it wasn't a game mechanic, but an actual real life thing that people do in witcher universe. Every single person just has a stack of cards with erotic art of themselves that they give out after having sex. No reason, it's just what they collectively do as society. And people compare card collections for whatever reason (from seeing if they had the same lover at some point to just bragging).

OF COURSE WITCHERS WILL COMPARE THEIR DECKS DURING WINTER, THEY LITERALLY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO FOR ENTERTAINMENT, EXCEPT DRINKING TO DEATH

At some point Geralt finds Lil Bleater card in Eskel's deck. Eskel finds Roach card in Geralt's collection. A few seconds of silence, computing. Understanding dawns on them with absolute synchronization. Lambert. That prick handmade perfect replicas of romance cards, but with a horse and a goat, and managed to snuck those cards into their decks. Absolutely with intention of putting them into awkward/humiliating situation purely for shits and giggles. Probably expecting to hear rumors like that legendary line about pellar

We all know Aiden's Wolf is both a polyglot and really prone to cursing (Aiden would probably phrase it as 'Lam has a very talented tongue' and winking as suggestively as possible while he says it!)

-

I was inspired a little while back by this post about playing bingo with Witcher ships - there are a bunch of fun tropes common to LambertxAiden on one of the cards! I dunno if I'll make 'bingo' yet, but the idea for this popped into my mind when I looked at the card and I had to draw it! (I apologize if any of the cursing doesn't make sense - I do not speak nearly as many languages and Lambert theoretically does and thus used a really quick and not-at-all-thorough google search to some up with placeholder text).)

I WROTE A WITCHER FIC :D

You left me here behind; do you not care? (How the fuck am I supposed to carry on without you here?)

Warnings : It's not a happy story.

Summary:

He almost jumps at the sound as his dog, Lud, barks in surprise. Henryk quickly stands, moving to answer his door, and nearly gapes at the sight.

Magda looks up to him, her bluish lips shaking.

“Oh, little duck,” he says softly, quickly ushering her inside. He corrals her to the chimney side; she’s shaking like a leaf. “Why are you outside?”

“Papa said I was bad,” she quietly answers, and Henryk hisses between his teeth. “Said I had to sleep in the barn until I was good again… but last time I was good only after a week, and I’m so cold, Sir Henryk.”

This is sad. Like really, really sad. Inspired by Shireen Baratheon's death in GOT, just so y'all know. Major Child Death, child abuse and grief.

Author notes:

Inspired by New-Made Gold To Give You by @inexplicifics

Alright; so I watched a video of Davos's anger towards Melisandre about Shireen's death, and hated that she got off way too nicely, so I wrote this.

It ended up way longer than it was supposed to be, and I've been working on it for a week, so I'm glad I got the angst out of my system.

This is not a happy fic. There is fluff, and parental feels, but it's sad.

It's in the accidental Warlord AU of @inexplicifics universe, when the Wolf takes Redania, but the politics are really in the background. I love to play with side characters, so thats what I did.
