    Summary

    Netflix has royally effed up the family dynamic between Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri.

    Here's my attempt to fix it for them.

    All the angst and hurt/comfort await. It’s a long road to redemption for all of them, but it’s one that’s worth the trip to become the proper family they are destined to be.

    Summary

    How many Julian Pankratz could there be in all the world, let alone in Redania, let alone in Lettenhove? Even if he kicked Geralt out on his ear—and that would be his right, after the mountain, after all this time—even if he refused the witcher, Jaskier would shelter Ciri. Geralt knew it in his heart and his soul and his very bones. Jaskier would keep her safe, and get her to the other wolves, or to Yennefer.

     

    With winter swift approaching, and a scared, starving child to care for, a half-dead Geralt of Rivia has no choice but to seek aid from the last person who wants to give it: Viscount Julian Alfred Pankratz.

    Summary

    The kids from Hawkins are on the cusp of adulthood when the echoes of the past catch up with them. What -- or who -- is causing explosive flashbacks of past events?

    Mike has a theory, but he needs more data, and not everyone is on board with his methods. Eleven is of two minds... or three. And Will is losing the battle to keep his own demons bottled up. Facing threats both old and new, can the Party take control of their shared destiny before it's too late?

    The timeline is a pond, and ripples can't be stopped as easily as a nosebleed.

    • Canon, right up to the Netflix tudum at the beginning of Season Three. After that, not so much.
