Summary
"I can't promise you that I'll survive this," Geralt says.
Jaskier closes his eyes, but he nods. "I know. I'm not asking... I know you'll do anything to save her. I would too."
Don't say that. Don't make me pay for my child's life with yours.
It would be the most selfish thing in the world to say, the most hypocritical, and yet Geralt wants to anyway. Wants to be selfish in his love, because it is more worth protecting than anything else he's ever had.
"But," he says instead, "you were right before, and I'll swear it. I swear to you I would never leave you of my own choice. I will be with you as long as I am able, and as long as you'll have me."
(They escape the rusalka and the swamp, but their fears follow them. Geralt and Jaskier turn to each other in the aftermath.)

Summary
Here, now, time holds no meaning for him. He exists only in this moment: an arrow let loose with careless fingers, hoping for a target. He cannot stop. Lungs heaving, thighs burning with strain, he cannot stop. Stop and he will be caught. Be caught and he might as well die. He has not fought this long and this hard to die now.
Formerly titled Unseen
After the mountain, Jaskier is captured and experimented on by a Mage of Nilfgaard. Somehow, he escapes. Now if only he could bring himself to believe it.

Summary
"You should leave me," Jaskier mumbles. It takes a second for Geralt to parse out the words, and when he does he feels ice chasing the potion through his veins.
"Stop fucking saying that," Geralt says, and maybe he is angry at Jaskier - not for the injury, never that, but for the idea that Geralt would consider leaving him behind. For thinking even for a second that Jaskier lying abandoned on a battlefield to die is a price Geralt could ever pay.
(In the aftermath of their flight from the Redanian camp in episode 4, Geralt reflects on what he has come dangerously close to losing, and truly chooses what he wants to become.)Bookmarked by d8DC

Summary
"Dream?"
The name falls off the man’s lips, hushed and breathless, and it stirs an answering feeling in Morpheus’ chest, something tugging deep behind the cage of his ribs, an incomprehensible yearning to be this man’s Dream.
"I fear you mistake me for another,” he says, at last.
*
Or, retired Morpheus tries to navigate human life without the foundation of his memories, and a chance encounter is the catalyst he needs to find himself.

Summary
"For a while, Jaskier doesn’t know he’s cursed. It feels like free will, going back down that mountain, just as dangerous down as the way up, and alone this time, too. The descent is fast, maybe even reckless, but Jaskier’s feeling numb and out-of-sorts anyways, Geralt’s words simmering in his mind, and at the time it doesn’t feel like he’s being pulled on by anything but his own desire to get away."
Based off a post that Geralt's words on the mountain are granted by the djinn.

Summary
It’s thrilling to have Astarion so close, even sniffing at his skin like a beast. A not insignificant part of him has admired this charming rake for quite some time, though he’s loath to admit his shameful crush out loud. Even as his skin seems to reach towards the solid line of the vampire’s body, Gale can’t admit how much he wants to be touched by him.
“Darling…” Astarion rumbles, voice slightly off, with an affectation like he’s drunk. His nose trails along Gale’s neck again, another loud, unabashed inhalation over the bump of Gale’s throat. “You smell positively delicious.”
-
An unfortunate incident occurs in the fleshy halls underneath Moonrise Tower and Gale seeks privacy to deal with the mess, not realizing he's being followed until a hungry creature with flashing red eyes corners him away from the others. Gale doesn't run.

Who Are You, Dear? by LinzOd

Summary
“I would like to introduce you to Geralt of Rivia. There was an infestation of cockatrices, and Geralt quickly dispatched them.” Margarette pivoted to the Witcher. “Geralt, this is my dearest friend, the Duchess of Lettenhove.”
Her observations of the Witcher thus far showed her a stoic man, self contained, with quiet words accompanied by barely perceptible changes in his facial expressions. But as his peculiar gaze locked on her, she noticed a perplexed look as he stared deeply into her striking blue eyes. As quickly as the expression had begun, he smoothed out his brow. “It is wonderful to meet you, Dutchess,” he said.
***
Annalise Pancratz, Duchess of Lettenhove attends a party celebrating a traveling Witcher and the renown bard, Jaskier. She desperately needs respite from the challenges in her life: a dour husband and an estranged son. Perhaps some good music and tales from a brave monster hunter will be what she needs to take her mind off of her troubles. But when she faces an unlikely danger, she realizes that this night may change her own future for the better.Stands alone but can be read as part of the series

Summary
Geralt had known Jaskier studied at Oxenfurt University, but he had thought of it as a sort of formal music education. It was becoming abundantly clear that while he had indeed studied music and composition, he also knew a lot more than Geralt had ever learned. And it was impressive. And humbling, too.

Summary
“Here.”
Jaskier looks up, and sees Geralt kneeling over him, a bowl of sour-smelling liquid in his hand. Jaskier groans and waves him off. He feels like garbage already, no need to make it worse with suspicious soup.
“If you’re trying to kill me,” Jaskier says weakly, “you’re nearly too late.”

Summary
Ed tried to fan the spark of righteous indignation but under the soft gaze of the moon, the spark sputtered and died. He had to admit that there was some truth to Holga’s claim. Because he had been characteristically verbose on the subject of the defeat of Forge. To all and sundry, he related the tale of how his band of thieves had saved Neverwinter from the clutches of Forge, Sofina, and Szass Tam. Hell, even the poor slobs who’d got eaten by the dragon made an appearance in those stories. But, as if in counterbalance—a silent arrangement made without ever once acknowledging he was doing it—the one person he never mentioned during his ramblings had been Xenk Yendar.

Geralt works very hard at not wanting anything. Amazing how Jaskier only takes a few years to tear that all down.

Basically, Geralt learns to ask for what he wants and deals with his feelings for once.

Summary
After consuming an unknown potion, Geralt finds himself able to hear Jaskier’s thoughts. Geralt does not think this will be a big deal: his heightened senses give him an advantage on reading people anyways and it’s not like the other man keeps a lot to himself to begin with.
Jaskier thinks this is going to be a disaster.
Jaskier is correct.

Summary
The way Jaskier sees it, his hobby of following a witcher around was always pretty likely to get him killed.
The fact that it's happening now because the witcher in question doesn't love him, he thinks as he coughs up crumpled flowers, hardly makes a difference.
