    Summary

    Jaskier had his own comb, of course, in the pocket of his braies. “How do I look?”

    Geralt huffed.

    “This very nice village has hired you – and me, it seems – to do a job, and I refuse to be unprofessional about it. Really, Geralt. Show some emotion for once. It’s your wedding day.”

    Four times Geralt and Jaskier were married, and one time they weren't.

    (This story is a stand-alone, but technically exists as a prelude to the rest of the series, as the events are mentioned in later stories)

    John, of course, does not know this and neither does the local hospital.

    Summary

    The bard is loud. Loud and intense. With a voice built to fill taverns over raucous drinking and the slamming of mugs and muddied feet, he fills the air of wilderness with nonsense. Question after question, phrases of songs and snippets of poetry, it's neverending  Therein lies the problem.

    Summary

    The night before his performance in Posada, Jaskier dreams of Geralt. He sees the white hair and the duel swords, hears his grunts and swears, and feels the punch to the gut, sensation lingering for minutes while he lies awake in bed.

     

    It only occurs to him afterward that he had the whole damn day to think of a way to introduce himself and he still didn’t come up with a better opening line than “bread in his pants”.

     

    (In which Jaskier has prophetic dreams and Geralt is a little slow on the uptake.)
