S03E13 - The Coming of Arthur part II (deleted scene)
You know what makes Her Sweet Kiss the absolute worst?? This from the interactive map:
It’s one of Jaskier’s most famous ballads, and not only that, but people know it’s about Geralt and Yennefer’s romance. Which! Means! That there should only be two sets of pronouns in that song. Something like the third person and second person.
But no, it has that and the first person. So, because it’s one of Jaskier’s songs, it’s absolutely canon that Jaskier is the first person, Yennefer is her, and Geralt is you.
Do the people also realise that Jaskier is calling Geralt his love? Who knows? It seems wild that they wouldn’t know or realise. Maybe when Jaskier plays the song, there are whispers: “Oh, I heard that this song is about his love for the witcher.” “Heard that too, shame the poor boy can’t let go.” “Yeah, I noticed the tears in his eyes, poor lad.”
It certainly seems, with all the evidence, that Jaskier being in love with Geralt, and it being unrequited, is gonna be canon…

I was listening to The Witcher soundtrack and was attacked by unsolicited sudden feels...
"Her sweet kiss" has instrumental version called "EVERYTIME YOU LEAVE" and nobody told me
SO MANY FUCKING THINGS stood out in tonight’s belter of an episode of His Dark Materials, but Marisa Coulter’s meeting with Mary Malone and her subsequent Blue Screen Of Death on realising the reality of the patriarchy was something I will. never. forget.
Look at her. Look at her eyes, listen the words she uses. Marisa is absolutely fucking full of blinding rage at the truth she’s suddenly been hit in the face with. All her life she has been better, clever, smarter, and stronger than the men who dominate her society. And she has been forced to kowtow to these pissants, these simpering dull crude men, slaving constantly in labour and cunning to secure the meagrest of breadcrumbs of respect and recognition in her academic and political fields. She has been forced to swallow the bitter pill of being ineligible for a doctorate, despite the undeniable superiority of her work. She has had to submit to her papers being published under the names of male peers and them taking her rightful credit. She has had to smile and simper and be agreeable and claw her way to power and respect through the utmost ruthlessness and cunning - and even though those things were always in her nature, the mental and emotional toll it’s taken on her is crystal fucking clear. She’s destroyed her own soul to rise to her rightful place.
And then she steps into another world and meets Mary. A doctor in her own right, with academic research in her own right, with her own brilliance in her own right. No fuss. No compromise. Just recognition on the basis of merit. And she realises, in that moment, what has been kept from her all her life, and how incandescently fucking outrageous it is.
And she is blinded by rage.
