    Summary

    An optimistic young bard leaves Oxenfurt and tries to make a name for himself. A run-in with bandits and several miserable years later, Jaskier does not believe in kindness anymore. When a white-haired witcher saves him from a leshen, he knows that there will be a price. There is always a price to pay, and seeing as Jaskier has no money, he knows he will not like the shape that price takes.

    Geralt is rather annoyed. Why do people always assume he will invoke the law of surprise? Though usually it is women who fear he will trick them into giving him their firstborn child. He hates the tired stereotype. How is he supposed to get the bard to safety when the man is so afraid of him?

    Summary

    “We met five years ago or thereabouts,” Geralt says through gritted teeth. “You came up to me in a tavern near Posada, decided I would be good song material, and we’ve travelled together, off and on, ever since.”

    “Huh,” Jaskier says.

    “You remember?” Geralt tries to keep the note of hope out of his voice, and doubts he’s been successful.

    “Not in the slightest,” Jaskier says cheerfully. “But I must admit it sounds like something I’d do.”

    When Jaskier forgets their life together, Geralt learns an unexpected lesson.

I hope to make this transition as easy as possible.”

    --
