You... You Saved Me. I Won't Ever Forget That.

so!! these are the first couple of concepts for that witcher roleswap au i’m workin on

yennefer is a witcher, school of the wolf bc i dont want to over complicate things. even as a witcher she’s ambitious, so she gets hired on by queen calanthe as a live in monster hunter and combat specialist. when pavetta dies, yen takes up a maternal role for ciri, training her and keeping her safe.

geralt is still the one who claims ciri as a child surprise, but he does it as a laugh bc he read about it in his mythos classes and thought it would be neat if royalty owed him something. yen ends up going through a lot of the classic geralt stories looking for ways to break the bond between him and ciri, and ends up working with geralt more often than not. yennefer is also trans, so jot that down.

Part 9 - AU wherein Yennefer is left as a baby on the doorstep of Aretuza and Tissaia takes her in. Yennefer doesn't like studying much, but Tissaia gives her lots of encouragement. And in the evenings, when all is quiet, Yennefer enjoys listening to Tissaia read - especially when it's Ancient Elvish or an epic adventure story.
