    Summary

    Geralt was never supposed to survive the Trials. A submissive witcher was an abomination, an insult to the order of the world. He can never let anyone know his nature, can never accept a gentle touch or a kind word. It's too risky, too dangerous. He might slip up and that would mean the end of everything.

    But Jaskier refuses to keep to the script. After the boisterous (alluring), overly invasive (affectionate), and stupidly persistent (brave) Dominant walks into his life with bread in his pants, Geralt starts to think that maybe he could break this endless cycle of deprivation and pain. If only he could figure out how to deserve it.

    (This is a low, slow exploration of trauma, recovery, and learning to live with oneself. BDSM is the lens through which all that is explored, but this is not a story based around sexual encounters. Rather, it is one about intimacy, communication, agency, familial bonds, and seeing people as they are.)

    Summary

    Since forgiving Geralt for the incident on the mountain, he and Jaskier had met in Hagge, Aedirn, near the end of every autumn. They'd spend a night drinking and playing cards before making the journey up to Kaer Morhen for the winter. However, when Geralt arrives for their fourth meeting in the town, he finds Jaskier - always the first to arrive - is not only not waiting for him, but is missing.

    With only Roach and a stallion he found on his way into town for company, Geralt sets about trying to find his missing bard. Will he succeed?

    Summary

    Outside the wind was howling, ice biting, but the wolves were warm in their den. Jaskier smiled to himself, dozing with his fingers still on the strings, and thought that he must be the luckiest human alive to be here, to be wrapped up and safe in this beautiful pack of Witchers.

    He was warm. Protected.

    He was home.

    ----

    Jaskier's second winter at Kaer Mohren.

    Summary

    In his time as a witcher, Geralt has killed just about everything that can be killed: monsters, beasts, constructs, men, even the undead can die again if you know the trick to it. Wraiths, he knows, are the lingering troubled spirits of people who died tragically, violently, unjustly and unavenged. Their unfair fate spawns in them a jealousy and hatred of everything living that quickly drives them mad and makes them dangerous and deadly, driven to torment those responsible for their plight. Usually he feels no more than a twinge of pity as he sends them off again with silver and fire, but then again usually they aren’t haunting him. Usually they aren’t Jaskier.

    Geralt learns that Jaskier never made it off the mountain after the dragon hunt and, if that’s what it takes to appease the monster that now wears his face, neither will Geralt.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Where Geralt finds bones and Jaskiers ghost. It's him, not hym. Some cathartic hurt/comfort with top tier writing
