[…] I shall die here. Every inch of me shall perish. Every inch, but one. An Inch, it is small and it is fragile, but it is the only thing the world worth having. We must never lose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us. I hope that whoever you are, you escape this place. I hope that the world turns and that things get better. But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you. I love you. With all my heart, I love you. -Valerie

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…
