    Summary

    What happens when you’re forced to become the very thing you despise?

    Ex-Auror Harry Potter, tossed out of the Ministry for something he had no control over, has been looking for a way back to his former life. When he comes across Draco Malfoy in the criminal underbelly of Wizarding London and in need of protection, Harry figures bringing him in to face the Ministry's justice is his ticket back to everything he's lost.

    But nothing is exactly as it seems. Not even Harry himself. And as he gets drawn further and further into Malfoy's world of honour and deception he finds himself questioning everything he thought he knew—about his childhood nemesis, the Ministry job he misses so much, and most of all, about himself.

    What happens when you’re forced to see that you were wrong?

    Summary

    “Can’t afford it,” Geralt grunted.

    “It’s not that expensive to rent a bed -” Jaskier started.

    It stings to have it pushed in his face that his life isn’t normal, so far beyond normal that someone like Jaskier can’t fathom it.

    “It’s expensive to rent a private room,” Geralt couldn’t keep the snarl out of his voice. “Or do you think anyone wants to sleep near a witcher?”

     

    When Geralt meets Jaskier in Posada, he is jaded, bitter and so lonely some days he thinks he might kill him. Jaskier is young, bright, and not afraid of tarnishing his reputation by standing by a witcher.

    Years later, Geralt repays the kindness.

    Summary

    "One too many drinks down in the barrel could get a man killed if he wasn't careful, and picking a fight with Jesper Fahey was about as far from careful as one could get without stepping right off into the harbor."

    The first [and last] time someone made a comment about the Crow's personal affairs.

    Summary

    Aiden had found a small hole on Lambert’s walls, pecked it bigger like a woodpecker until he could squeeze right through and make himself a nice home inside Lambert’s heart. He lay there like a cat in a sunbeam, completely content, and Lambert was baffled by it because he had always thought he didn’t have anything to give.

    (Or: how Aiden and Lambert met and taught each other important survival skills like how to swim and how to be loved.)
