    Summary

    Geralt stared at him, and… fuck. He could see it. The broken pieces behind the mask Geralt wore. The pain of losing someone who meant so much to him, only for Dandelion to show up, looking exactly like him.
    “…Do I sound like him?” Dandelion asked.
    Geralt nodded. “…More than you can imagine.”

    Or: Geralt is immortal, and Jaskier reincarnates. Only Geralt doesn't know that Jaskier reincarnates the first time he dies.

    Summary

    "First," said Gale. "Do not kill any thinking creatures in Waterdeep unless you must to protect yourself or you have my express permission."

    As Gale spoke, he could feel the weight of his words sinking into the person sitting across from him. It was like casting a spell, but took no effort. Astarion had been staring hollowly into his goblet of blood, but at this he made a faintly interested noise. As if the rule were novel and he was considering the shape of it.

    "Second, you will obey me in all things," said Gale. There didn't feel like there was any honest way of softening that. Astarion didn't make any sound at all.

    "Third, do not leave the tower without permission." Astarion made another speculative noise, considering this one too. But then his shoulders hunched and his eyes skittered down, as if he didn't want to look at what was about to happen.

    "Fourth," Gale said, and paused. He started with some context: "There is a tressym upstairs."

    Astarion's head twitched. He looked up at Gale, blinking, startled. He had the air of someone who had been bracing for a blow and instead had just been handed a balloon animal.

    "A what?" he asked.

    Summary

    “These are mine.”

    Jaskier looks up at the sound of Geralt’s voice, blinking in surprise. The witcher’s tone is even, and his face unexpressive, but Jaskier still tries to read into the words. Geralt is holding a palmful of wrapped sweets in his hand, and a quick glance reveals them to be lemon candies, which Jaskier loves.

    And which Geralt hates.

    He frowns, confused.

    “You don’t even like those,” he feels compelled to announce. His own lingering guilt and fear of being a burden after stealing Geralt’s dagger aside, it makes no sense why Geralt would suddenly decide to forbid candies he doesn’t even like when he’s never denied Jaskier things before. They’ve been to three other towns since then, and he hasn’t brought it up. Jaskier’s avoided any Mischief to avoid creating any problems since then, so it’s not as if he’s given him a pressing reason to suddenly feel the need to scold him.

    “They’re mine,” Geralt continues, splitting them between both hands and tucking them into his pockets on either side. “So don’t steal them.”

    (Jaskier is part fae and thus has a biological imperative for Mischief) (Geralt proves unexpectedly supportive about this)

    Summary

    When Tobirama is exiled from the Senju clan without warning, without even the chance to plead his case, it feels like his life is over. What does he have to live for now without his older brother to believe in him? Captured by the Uchiha in his moment of weakness, Tobirama slowly learns to live again with the last people on earth he would have ever expected to care for - or to fall in love with.

    Summary

    Geralt's muscles heave backwards, flinging him down against the bed. He tries to struggle upwards but it feels like he’s been buried beneath a mountain. Every inch of him is pressed completely still. His eyes close, and he’s left in the dark with nothing but his racing heart for company. He’s not tired, he’s never been less tired. But the curse wants him to sleep, it seems. It’ll force him to lie here until he does. How much of his life will it start to control, now that he’s declared war against it? Now that he knows it’s lurking in his bones, now that it doesn’t have to be subtle?

    He swallows. Takes a long, deep breath, gathering every bit of courage he has to stop himself from slipping back into panic. He still has control over his lungs. He still has that.

    For now.

    (Or: Witchers don't retire. They stay on the Path until it kills them. They hunt monsters and they want nothing from life. This isn't exactly by choice.)

    Summary

    “Consider how this looks. The Senju proposes peace at the height of their power. The Uchiha, already losing, don’t have the resources to match the Senju. If the Senju provides us with food and armour, the Uchiha must become subordinate. Is that what you think of as peace, Senju? Over at the Uchiha compound, we call that subjugation by the most powerful.”

    “It seems that there is only one possible solution: the Senju must choose a symbol to subjugate itself to the Uchiha to balance out the scales. For that role, I volunteer myself.”

    The wise ones know: fires can warm and not burn; and rivers, if given strength and permission, will carve the land.

    (Or, the one in which Tobirama becomes Madara’s concubine, and peace is won and held through neither power nor love, but food, water, clothes, and medicine.)

    Complete.

    Summary

    Jango Fett didn't mean to restart the Mandalorian Empire. He just kept accidentally acquiring planets after their leaders proved too corrupt to leave in place. Nobody told the Republic that (or if they did, they didn't believe it), so they decide to send a tribute to the Warlord.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi, freshly knighted Jedi with a Padawan adopted in the heat of the moment, is chosen to sate the Warlord's desire for conquest. He's not happy about it, but when the senate sends him he must go. Fortunately, the unreasonably pretty warlord seems to mainly want him to do paperwork.

    And Jango Fett might just save the Galaxy for his gorgeous new Jedi assistant and his adorable feral murder child.

    Summary

    Fleeing the armies of Nilfgaard, who think he must know where Geralt and Ciri are, Jaskier can think of only one place to go...but that means intruding on the home of a man who wants nothing more to do with him.

    He'll make it work somehow.

    Geralt hasn't heard any news of his bard since the disastrous dragon hunt. He's tired, half-starved, and responsible for a traumatized princess. But Kaer Morhen might hold more than safety - it might hold hope.

    Jaskier wakes up in Posada. He’s been a lot of other places, but Posada is the one where he wakes up.

    Summary

     Today was, without a single doubt, the most peculiar day of Jaskier’s life.
     “I’m sorry,” he said to Yennefer, blinking up at her, very glad that he was seated on the side of the thin bed. “I think you just said that I’m pregnant.”
     The sorceress’s violet eyes harbored not an iota of humor. She crossed her arms under her ample bosom, and said, “You are pregnant.”
     “Pregnant with a magnificent bounty of well-crafted songs?”
     Her eyes narrowed. Under any other circumstances, he would have felt a mighty frisson of fear skittering down his spine. He was far too horrified of the words that rolled off her plump, red-painted lips next.
    “You are pregnant with a baby.”
    ______________________________________

    In which Jaskier discovers that he's mysteriously pregnant but wants the baby, Geralt finally learns to use his words after twenty years, Yennefer is so done with two idiots in love and their communication problems, and Ciri gains a new family.

    (The main story is complete at 10 chapters, but will be updated with codas about Geralt and Jaskier and their life following the events of the main story. Also features my art!)

    Summary

    "It’s been a while since mortals mistook him for a dead body—probably more than a century. And this is a first. As he remembers it, the last time he was accidently buried it had been in a nice mausoleum in a heavy stone coffin—he was in with the King of that country back then (of course it doesn’t exist anymore but at the time he was quite beloved with a different name and different life). A stone lid was easily removable, and he had gotten quite bored of court life. So, it had been a energizing rest and a fresh start.

                The point is, Jaskier has never woken up quite literally buried alive."

    [Jaskier thinks everyone is aware he is very hard to kill but waking up in a coffin proves him wrong]

    Summary

    Jaskier’s just debating how much trouble he’s actually in when Geralt, marvelously, talks them out of it. After that, well . . . Jaskier still wants to eat him very badly, but he supposes it’d be a bit ungrateful of him.

    Geralt isn’t very impressed with the song he writes for him, unfortunately—which, rude—but doesn’t try to run off and leave him either, so . . .

    Well, Jaskier’s a bit smitten. A delicious-smelling witcher who can talk his way out of being murdered is very impressive.

    And he always has wanted a pet.

    Summary

    The boy slowly wobbled up into a crouch, one knee on the ground. Tobirama stayed down, almost in seiza, hands visible and still on his knees.

    "Who are you? I don't know you. Are -- are you a Senju? Really? And it's night, why is it night?! Why is -- why do you have his corpse?!"

    (...)

    He wasn't done. He could feel the drain on his chakra reserves and he was going to be cutting it close, so. Feelings later. Happiness later. Squeezing his brother in his arms and breathing in his scent could -- it could wait.

    It could.

    Tobirama had been asked questions.

    "I created fake corpses to swap with the two of you. It's night because the comet I'm anchoring this seal to is passing by at night this time around. And I'm." His breath hitched, just a little. Months of feverish calculations, planning, plotting, setbacks and roadblocks, knowing the chance might never come again, knowing he had a time limit, a very narrow window and if he failed that was it.

    "I'm Tobirama. Your brother. It's been twelve years. Do I... Do I not look like me any longer?"

    Summary

    “How did you manage,” asked Geralt, with infinite patience and only a desire to know the facts, and not at all a little meanhearted glee, “to insult a sorcerer while his tongue was down your throat?”

    Don’t make me recount the entire sordid affair, Geralt,” said Jaskier, with a surprising note of desperation breaking through his gruff monotone. “I’m already having a rather shit day and all I’ve done so far is wake up.”

    “In my body,” said Geralt.

    “Yes,” said Jaskier, with the insolent cadence that was unmistakably Jaskier’s, but in Geralt’s voice, emerging from Geralt’s face and frame.

    “And I’ve got yours,” said Geralt, from Jaskier’s.

    Summary

    He stepped up to Jaskier. His friend looked the same. Exactly the same. 750 years, and the only difference was a beard and a healing black eye.  

    Geralt reached forward slowly, pushing the hair off of Jaskier’s face. 

    “How is this possible?” He asked. 

    -- 

    Or, when Geralt lives to modern times, his biggest regret is losing his bard. 
    Everything changes when Jaskier gets transported right back into his life.

    Summary

    In a dank cave in the Blue Mountains, a stripling just barely past the cusp of manhood looks up at a cyclops looming over him and raises his arm in a futile effort to ward off the massive hand as it swings towards him.

    On the banks of a river, hundreds of miles and precisely five decades later, to the day and the hour and the ticking second, a man raises his hand to deflect the arrow hissing towards him and knows he’s going to be too slow.

    Both of them have the exact same thought as their deaths approach:

     

    Lambert is never going to forgive me.
