WHY IS HE NOT COOKING IT.

Real canon colourized art of Geralt healing up after a fight:

For example, in order to do long tasks, like folding laundry, I put on the Mario Hat:

The main feature of the Mario hat is that my headset does not fit over it, so when The Bees™ try to put me back in front of the screen, the headset issue forces me to remember why I put the Mario hat on, and back to the task I go

As a bonus, the Mario hat is also a very clear indicator to my housemates that business is getting done, and they have learned not to distract me when I'm wearing the "goofy-ass cosplay hat"

let's fight monsters with mama!

Another (Very angsty) screencap redraw.

Also thoughts on the textured brushed/watercolour texture on the bg because I can't decide if I like it or not

(Sketch below the cut)

drawing people i see in the city (47/?) lil dude also had the best conversation opener:

He wanted be the best knight and save people.

He's put through a second round of grasses. He's the strongest now. Was it worth it?

He believed in chivalry, he wanted to be a knight, he wanted people to respect and appreciate him.

Only after Blaviken breaks his heart, destroys his self-worth and ruins his reputation does he meet Dandelion/Jaskier, who is able to convince the Continent to give him the admiration he used to crave.

He wanted a child. In the books, he tried to collect Ciri from her grandmother, but was denigrated and demeaned into admitting he wasn't fit to raise her. It is only after he gives up that circumstances align to bring Ciri to him -- in the worst and most traumatic way possible, too.

If I recall correctly, Yennefer calls him out in the books for dreaming of a soft, gentle life with her, a retirement from witchering. Such a thing is not on the cards for the likes of them. But he gets that retirement eventually, a vineland in sunny Toussaint, a quiet old age.
