Summary
When Jaskier is abducted from the merchant vessel he'd chartered to take him to his first semester at Oxenfurt Academy, taken by pirates of the cruelest nature, he was sure things couldn't possibly get any worse.
Three and a half months later, when he's abducted from that pirate ship by another group of pirates, he realizes just how wrong he was about things not being able to get worse.
Because these second pirates are witchers—part of the notoriously deadly crew led by the Butcher of Blaviken.But witchers or not, Jaskier is determined to survive. He's destined for a future as a Bard of incredible fame and renown, after all. No matter what new horrors they throw at him, he won't go down easy.

I was inspired by The Wild Waves, by phiaura.
I was like, hot damn I love this story. And then I got inspired to do something similar, but with more angst, and things just kinda spiraled from there.Bookmarked by Aspatat

Summary
Where witchers are death, and Jaskier is a bard with a flare for the dramatic who keeps saying he wants to “just die” in any given situation.
To Jaskier, this is just a figure of speech. To Geralt, it is very definitely flirting.
When he decides to finally court the bard, it doesn't quite go as expected, and he finds out just why it is so easy for Jaskier to flirt with death.---000---
Geralt tilts his head to listen, the corner of his mouth twitching upward. The bard has been flirting with him for weeks now, exclaiming he could just die, all over Oxenfurt. At first, Geralt thought the man was being dramatic and didn’t know what he was doing, but no one is that theatrical.
“Little shit at it again?” Lambert grouses. “Just fucking court him already, pretty boy. Or I might just do it for you.”

Summary
After Jaskier starts travelling with him, the words Geralt hears to describe him become kinder, and he hears himself referred to as the white wolf, more than the butcher.
The same cannot be said for Jaskier. When at first it was lovely, pretty, songbird, now the words to describe the bard are of an entirely different nature.---000---
During their first summer on the path Geralt hears Jaskier referred to as loud, obnoxious, and once - rather unkindly- as a chatty little bitch. Which Geralt finds he can somewhat understand, especially in those moments where he needs just a little peace and quiet. It’s mostly when he finishes the more difficult hunts, potions still raging through his bloodstream, his senses just a bit too sharp for comfort. Jaskier’s voice isn’t grating, it’s rather lovely, in fact. But in those moments, Geralt just wants to growl at him and tell him to be quiet.
He never calls the bard a chatty little bitch though.

Summary
Dick Grayson, former vampire hunter raised by a vampire billionaire vigilante, has continued the family traditions of both his families by a) catching a vampire, and b) impromptu adopting a small child.
Of course, adopting in this case is technically kidnapping, but since Jason is a vampire, Dick can basically legally do whatever he wants with him.
---
Jason has been captured by a vampire hunter. His life is over.

Summary
Geralt isn't thrilled to visit Tretegor to negotiate a peace treaty with Redania's monarch. He fancies the business of slavery leaves a palpable odour over the whole place, but the Warlord of the North isn't going to turn down an opportunity to settle this conflict bloodlessly if it presents itself.
Returning to Redania stirs up more bad memories than the White Wolf bargained for however, and words like beast and butcher trail after him in whispers never spoken to his face. He's handling it about as well as he can when King Vizimir makes an unexpected move, sending a gold collared bedslave unannounced to Geralt's room, stinking of fear.
(Or: how I imagine Geralt's perspective from phiaura's fic The price of gold)
