Far over the Misty Mountains rise

so, [dons her geraskier tinted glasses]
the fact that geralt straight up ignores jaskier’s presence during the final battle has been niggling at me for weeks and i’ve been struggling to reconcile it with what we know about geralt. because, putting the mountain incident aside, geralt has always protected jaskier? whenever jaskier was in danger he would rush to his side in a heartbeat, literally from day one. not even acknowledging him until the battle is practically over makes no sense to me whatsoever?
i was watching the episode again last night and yennefer said this -
voleth meir is more personal than that. she’s more specific. she finds your weakness, the gaping wound in your heart, the thing that makes you feel hopeless, and she plunges her finger into it and makes it hurt so badly, you’d do anything.
which got me thinking. what if ignoring jaskier was really geralt’s way of protecting him? he knew that showing any concern for jaskier would shift voleth meir’s focus from him and ciri to jaskier. there was so much still broken between the two of them, that gaping wound in his heart that yen was talking about. so much hurt for voleth meir to draw her power from.
so, he ignores him. not giving any indication that the bard is important to him. doing everything he can to keep voleth meir’s gaze away from him. praying to the gods that one of his brothers will make sure he’s safe. that he would take the damn hint and get the hell away from there. hoping that for once in his life the bard would stay away from the fight and put himself first instead of geralt.
This is the type of media analysis I come to tumblr for. Good work OP.

sasuke: “i married him” okay but did he promise to bare the burden of your sins and die with you? did he cry in bed for five hours just hoping and praying that you were still alive? did he lie awake at night on his floor wondering if you were thinking about him too? did he strip away his pride by dropping to his knees as he begged the heads of state to spare your poor soul? did he get the living shit beaten out of him to the point where he could barely breathe just because he couldn’t- no- he wouldn’t sell you out? did he have a panic attack because he would no longer be able to stand next to you, had you been executed? did he clench his chest as he whispered your name while a shooting star soared across the sky after a hard day of training? did you both lose your arms but you didn’t care because you were finally here beside him and he loves you, he loves you so much, and you love him too, just the same, if not, even more? no? didn’t think so.
hinata: … i didn’t even say anything 😕
this was sasuke’s toast at their wedding

The Chrome browser exists to show you ads and track where you go so that Google can show you more ads. Please stop using Chrome. Firefox is open source, and while Mozilla is not perfect, it isn’t actively fucking evil the way Google is. It has a bazillion plugins, including various (FREE!) ad block plugins (I recommend uBlock Origins, which will even block YouTube ads – you can watch videos without interruptions again!). It will also function very effectively with a lot more tabs open than Chrome. I’ve got around 800 tabs open right now (not loaded, of course, except for maybe 2 dozen; it’s been a heavy browsing day), and my wife has between 2k and 3k at any time.
We are in the New Browser Wars. This time there’s a helluva lot of money up for grabs, because a lot of it is about running those ads. Monopolies are bad for consumers.
Just go download Firefox.
Firefox plugins I 100% recommend if you don’t want to be tracked (and want to cost corporations money)
AdNauseam is an adblocker that generates false clicks on the ads it blocks, which costs the corporations that pay for them money.
Privacy Possum messes with the tracking data collected about you, rendering it essentially useless
TrackMeNot generates random search terms across sites, meaning that any data collected about things you actually search is buried in a sea of random bullshit. Makes it very hard for people to figure out what you’re actually doing. You can block terms in the options, which means it won’t search for anything incriminating on your behalf (I think the word bomb is blocked by default)
WhatCampaign replaces tracking analytics used in website code with data that can’t be used to track you. I’m pretty sure it replaces it with “fuck off” by default.
I’m not adding links because tumblr will not show this up if I do, but you can search these on the Firefox addons site and they’ll come up.
