    Summary

    "That's not why I'm here." Geralt growled, "An assassin was sent for me when I was in Flotsam, I don't know who by" he pulled down his collar to show the mostly-healed wound on his shoulder, "but they were good. I was unprepared, and they stabbed with this dagger," he gestured to the weapon in front of him, "before they ran. They could have killed me, but they didn't."
    "You think it was on purpose?" Yennefer's brow furrowed
    "I think it was a message."

     

     
    Geralt is attacked by an assassin, who leaves him with Jaskier's dagger in his shoulder and a lock of his bard's hair. Geralt works to save his friend, but there is something more sinister lurking beneath the surface.

    Summary

    He hadn’t meant to lie. Not really. It hadn’t been a proper lie, one of omission, and it wasn’t like Geralt was the only person he’d been lying to at the time. He’d just wanted to be someone else for a bit. A Witcher was always a Witcher. Except when that Witcher was Julian Alfred Pankratz.

    -

    Jaskier has a past that he'd been hiding for a long time. Too long. When Geralt gets hurt he has a choice to make. Continue living a lie, or save the man he's come to love and risk exposing it all.

    Summary

    Steve has reigned as king for ten years, and in a few days peace will finally come to his kingdom. Representatives of the Kree Empire are soon to arrive for the negotiations that will end the war between them once and for all. Steve is looking forward to settling down, with his hand-picked Avengers at his side -- led, of course, by the masked knight Iron Man -- and also his trusted advisors, the most beloved of whom is Tony, his court magician, the most powerful mage in all the land.

    But when Steve's life is endangered, Tony makes the greatest sacrifice of all to protect his king, a sacrifice far greater than his life. And when Tony disappears under mysterious circumstances, Steve learns that even his closest friends keep secrets that he could never have suspected.

    Summary

    “You let him get away, didn’t you?” Tony looks away but keeps his silence, jaw clenching. Ross grabs his jaw and makes him look him in the eyes. “Tell me where he is, Tony.”

    Tony spits to the side, not breaking eye contact. “Go to hell,” he says.

    Or: Tony, even after everything, would still protect Steve with every bone in his body.
