I am once again thinking of episode 7 when Geralt tells Jaskier to take Ciri back to Kaer Morhen from Cintra. Fucking CINTRA! Like it’s only gonna take a second, like it’s on the way or something and not some epic fucking journey all on its own. Do you know how far that is?
No matter what the scale of this map is that’s FAR, but it’s also about three countries and an entire mountain of travelling. For some perspective though, this is how far Ciri travelled in the ENTIRETY of season 1 while on the run from Nilfgaard.
So between episode 7 and 8 Jaskier and Ciri took a roadtrip together that was three times as long as her entire first season arc. No wonder he’s so tired in episode 8.
you travel over 20 years with someone and they leave you one day after a fight so you drop a brutal break-up song. after months, your ex is back in your life with their other ex (who is now your bestie) and a kid. now you’re at your ex’s childhood home. oh, and also you’re a spy. jaskier is living out the most chaotic romcom thriller ever and no one else even realizes.
Jaskier singing “I am… enough.” after he spent all of season one being treated like he wasn’t and literally being blamed for everything going wrong is making me fucking break down yes jaskier yes you are fucking enough you’ve always been enough
