    Summary

    Jaskier wasn't in the market for a replacement witcher. Not after Geralt had broken his heart so thoroughly. There must surely be more appreciative audiences and travel companions to be had, and if he was lucky maybe even with a smidge less chaos and mortal peril thrown into the bargain.

    Yet within a fortnight, he'd gone and stumbled across another witcher in the middle of absolutely nowhere. It's possible that Destiny is laughing at him.

    (A post-mountain fic about Jaskier running into other witchers - original, I know).

    Summary

    Jaskier, a royal pleasure slave, isn't exactly happy with his lot in life—he's having sex with less than desirable nobles at a pace nobody would want—but he's learned to be content with it. Things could be a lot worse.

    On occasion, Radovid sends him away to bestow his services on nobles who aren't stationed at court. During one such trip Jaskier witnesses the murder of a noble he was supposed to be pleasing, and sees the faces of the assassins; to keep him from identifying them to the authorities, Jaskier is taken with them when they leave, and finds himself held in the royal palace of Rivia. Life in Rivia is anything but what Jaskier would have expected and both the king of Rivia and his right hand are unlike any nobles Jaskier has ever known; the more time he spends with them, the more he realizes that they might just be what they seem to be—good men.

    Summary

    “Hm?” Jaskier says, only half-listening, from where he’s apparently gotten distracted playing with the hair peeking through the vee of Geralt’s shirt.

    Geralt grits his teeth, because if he starts thinking about that, then this conversation will be over, and – for once – Geralt’s the one who wants to keep having it.

    Jaskier and Geralt keep trying to figure out their relationship. It keeps getting worse before it gets better.

    Summary

    He never wanted a child…. Who in their right mind would ever look at him and think “Yes, this is the perfect man to raise my newborn.”.
    Yet somehow he had ended up in this clearing looking down at a tiny newborn who was studying him with a pair of bright golden eyes that were so familiar it made his chest ache.
    He just couldn’t catch a break, and as usual this was all Geralt’s fault….

    Summary

    According to anyone who is anyone within the Ton, when Julian Alfred Pankratz made his debut into society, he was practically guaranteed to make the best match of the season. Beautiful, educated, witty-- a young prodigy in the musical arts-- and coming from one of the most respectable families in Redania, he had all the makings to be declared a Diamond of the first water.

    But all of that changed when his illness began.

    Plagued by fits of panic and hysteria that seemingly had no cause, Jaskier was forced to remove himself from society for two years. Now returned to the city, he is desperate to find an alpha before the season is up and he is declared a spinster. The only problem is that he's old news, prospects are few and far between, and he may not be quite as recovered as he's led his parents to believe.

    ---------

    A prequel to my lambden regency au, featuring how Jaskier and Geralt got together.

    Geralt, beneath him, looking up at him with his black eyes glistening and his teeth bared like he wants to sink them into his throat. Breathing like he wants to tear him apart. Like he wants to be torn apart by him.

    Summary

    He had been careful, oh so careful not to be caught. At least he thought he did. And yet, here he was.

His life and liberty are now in the hands of the Warlord of the North.

    Summary

    Jaskier is finally free. After so long trapped in a form not his own he had begun to doubt which was his true self. But here he is, unshackled. The betrayals, violence, abandonment- the destruction his family wrought upon themselves and others, all of it left far behind. Jaskier is determined to enjoy this second chance. To bask in the beauty of life and ignore what horrors linger. Then he meets Geralt and things become complicated.

    .........................................................

    “They don’t exist.”

    “Pardon?” The bard’s brown hair flops as he tilts his head.

    Geralt bravely doesn’t sigh again. “The monsters in your songs. They don’t exist.”

    For some reason that gets him a grin, “How do you know?”

    Geralt stares at him.

    “I’m a Witcher.”

    The bard laughs, “So just because you’ve never seen them that means they don’t exist?”

    “Yes.” Geralt says flatly.

    “Agree to disagree.” The man says flippantly, “But I would love to hear more about the monsters you’ve fought.”

    “No.” Geralt takes a drink desperately and finds he is almost at the bottom of his tankard. He contemplates whether it’s worth the coin for another. Probably not.

    Summary

    Jaskier is captain of the high school cheer squad, and spends his afternoons in the auditorium with the other theater kids laughing and quoting shows.

    Geralt is the football teams quarterback, smart, good grades, notoriously stoic and keeping only to himself and his brothers.

    The two get paired up in chemistry class, and Jaskier finds himself suddenly having to hide a very obvious crush. It doesn't help when he is being blackmailed by Geralts teammates.

    **Note that non-con does not occur between main pairings.

    “So how is it looking? Oh.” Jaskier giggles helplessly, glancing across the table at his lover’s somewhat dazed expression. “Oh, Geralt, you are fucked.

    -

    Summary

    Jaskier and Geralt have a chance encounter with Eskel one afternoon, and the witchers teach Jaskier a little about patience. Featuring honey, lingerie, and a very mouthy bard.

    Technically a sequel to An old wolf learns a new trick (or three), where Geralt had been firmly corrected about his poor habits in bed, but can be read independently.

    Summary

    Just as the winds begin to chill and the first autumn red leaf tumbles to the ground, a shiver runs up along Jaskier’s spine. Geralt feels the change too. The Witcher always perks up a bit when the promise of returning home to the mountain-top keep rears its head again.

    --

    Geralt and Jaskier are heading back to Kaer Morhen for another winter. The Wolves have missed their songbird, and with Geralt having kept him close to his side for three whole seasons, Eskel and Lambert only deem it fair that they start catching up on what they've lost.

    Summary

    When a witcher visits Ban Gleán he's only there for two reasons. Contracts, and The Midnight Lantern. The Madame of the brothel knew that every time a witcher was in town, he would undoubtedly stop by for a night or two.

    And so when you were called up to the front, your heart raced.

    Summary

    “All of you?” Jaskier shrieks. Eskel hurries to hush him. Probably best if Geralt doesn’t hear his bard yelling from inside the nest.

    “Yes, all of us,” he hisses. “It’s biological.”

    “What kind of biology—”

    “Witcher biology, bard, keep up.”

    --OR--

    Something sets off Geralt's rut out of season. Eskel is left to explain to Geralt's very human bard exactly what a rut is, and why it's a very bad idea to try and fuck their way out of it.
