Summary
"I'm here to propose an arrangement. Between us. I assume you remember our talk from earlier today and how... challenging dating can be on Atlantis. And since we've established that you're attracted to me, I think it would be mutually beneficial for us to have sex."

Summary
Rodney's Antarctica is a lot like Siberia in that it's full of scientists who work 16-hour days and bathe once a week (twice when they're feeling social), and who would slit your throat for a fresh banana. Also, you can't go for a walk without a survival kit, but that's fine - Rodney's never really been an outdoorsy person.

The Accidental Warlord and His Pack - Recommended Reading Order by inexplicifics
Fandom Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types
17 Aug 2026
Summary
This is the Accidental Warlord and His Pack series, reorganized in an order that makes a little more sense. It's not precisely chronological, since some of the backstories are set well before With a Conquering Air, but it should flow nicely.

Summary
Assume that the Andromeda was not caught in the event horizon of the black hole but was captured by the Nietzscheans instead. Without Dylan and his crew to come back from 300 years in the future, the Nietzschean Tactical Offensive at the Battle of Witchhead Nebula would have succeeded without the loss of the majority of their ships, and they would have taken over the Commonwealth. 300 years later things would be very different.

Summary
Three weeks ago, Mycroft Holmes picked Lestrade up outside New Scotland Yard and made him an offer he'd been unable to refuse, despite his best judgement. Mycroft had sucked his cock, dropped him off at home, and Lestrade hadn't heard a word from him since.
Now, the door of the black car swung open as Lestrade drew level with it. He could just see Mycroft's profile, hawkish nose and shallow chin limned by the orange glow of the streetlight.

Summary
“What the fuck did you do?"
Eddie jerks to a stop, the motion causing the hood on the black open-front hoodie he’s wearing to sway oddly. Luke isn’t sure if he expects Eddie to deny it or ask Luke what he’s talking about but instead, Eddie’s eyes widen.
“It worked?” He asks voice tinged with awe.
“If by ‘it worked’ you mean I have a fucking alien parasite swimming around in me then YES!” Luke yells. “It worked, asshole.”
“It’s not a parasite,” Eddie says carefully.
OR
Eddie and Venom have settled into life on the island, including making friends with former Carlton Drake employee, Luke. As a thank you for his part in getting them together, Venom decides to gift Luke a symbiote of his very own. This is their story.

Wolf by thisgirlsays22 for DevilishCat
Fandoms: Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types, The Witcher (TV)
07 Apr 2020
Tags
Summary
The wolf drew closer, and Jaskier realized it carried a lute between its teeth. Sleek, polished wood, white strings, dark swirling patterns around the rosette. Gently, the wolf laid the lute in front of Jaskier and nudged it towards him with its shiny black nose.
He stared wide-eyed at the wolf. The shock made him forget to be grateful, and instead, he blurted out, “Why?”

witcher marriage traditions, and other lies by leodesic
Fandoms: Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types
17 Jul 2023
Tags
Summary
The start of Jaskier's winter position at court is celebrated with a grand ball dedicated the artists brought in for the winter. But not all goes as planned when another guest recognizes him. Backed against the wall and faced with the threat of marriage, he spits out the first lie to comes to his mind and claims he is already married - to Geralt, of all people. To his immense surprise, Geralt goes along with it. In doing so, he commits to spending the winter by Jaskier's side and playing the doting husband. It's fortunate he does, because court seems more dangerous than Jaskier remembered. Monsters lurk in the corners and danger lurks behind every door. Without Geralt there, he might have been frightened. With Geralt, he's more concerned by his own growing feelings for the witcher. Can he get through the winter without Geralt catching on?
Updates once a fortnight.

Summary
Following a car crash, Julian Pankratz is returned to his parents after over a decade of being missing -- but without his memories . As he pieces his life back together, he chooses the name 'Jaskier' for himself. He is perfectly content to pursue a PhD in the music of the great bard Dandelion, until the White Wolf himself stumbles into his life and stays there. Before long, Jaskier has a new question to ask himself: is he Julian Pankratz, or is he someone or something much, much older?
Geralt hummed an affirmative sound. His eyes bore into Jaskier's, and he could not help but feel as if his every last movement was being observed and catalogued for later examination. Without blinking, he said,"Dandelion was my husband."
The words hit somewhere deep within Jaskier and rattled around inside his chest. His eyes widened. A peculiar ache swelled in his heart, only to be washed away by a flood of excitement.
"Of course. That explains everything," he breathed.

Summary
This was far from the first time someone had wanted Geralt. This wasn’t the first time it was someone Geralt wanted back. And this time, it was good. It would be a good match. But his gut said no. A good match wasn’t enough. Geralt deserved – needed better than that. He deserved glorious – passionate – spectacular love. That was what he wanted, for Geralt.
Jaskier is a Cupid, an immortal semi-divine entity or an anthropomorphic personification of an emotional experience (depending on who you ask). He set out to find Geralt someone he could fall in love with. He wasn't counting on falling in love for himself.

Summary
Jaskier doesn’t actually know how much time has passed since the black-cloaked Nilfgaardians grab him after a performance in a shitty tavern in the backcountry of northern Kaedwen. He’d assumed--foolishly, apparently--that he was far enough north that any Nilfgaardian soldiers would be few and far between, likely just scouts or even deserters. It would have been hard to actually get any further north--the little backwater town where he’d been singing was just a day from the mountains. Anymore travel, and he’d find himself skirting the Trail up to Kaer Morhen, the Warlord’s Keep, and, well. He’s brazen, but not that brazen.
(or: a wandering bard bites off more than he can chew with the political ballads, accidentally makes friends with a princess in exile, and finds the Warlord of the North in his debt.)
