Summary
It was 2023 in boring Hawkins, Indiana, and Steve Harrington didn't know what he was doing with his life. Home from college with a barely passing GPA, recently dumped, and drunkenly careening down a dark country road to the tune of his own misery, Steve was aware that he might be depressed. Therapy would've been the sane solution. But before he could turn around and make that choice, a glowing red hole cracked open in the middle of the road, and he was sent flying through time and space.
It was also 1985 in boring Hawkins, Indiana, and Eddie Munson had a five step plan on how to fix his life. First, graduate high school. Second, provide a kickass D&D campaign for the nosy little freshman that joined Hellfire. And finally, write more music and go on tour with his band. Okay, three step plan. Absolutely nothing about his plan-in-progress included stumbling across the hottest man he'd ever seen stranded on the side of the road. Or the glowing red portal to hell parked next to him.

Summary
November 1983. Between unpaid bills, the supposedly straight jock he’s seeing, and letters from his convict dad, seventeen year old Eddie Munson’s got enough to worry about. But when Will Byers goes missing, it sparks a chain of events that will show there are more depths to Hawkins — and to certain people in it, like infamous Steve ‘The Hair’ Harrington — than he realizes.
/ or, the excessively long slow-burn in which Eddie is involved in the Upside Down from the very beginning.

Soft Deceitful Wiles by boopboop
Fandoms: Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types, The Witcher (TV)
17 Mar 2022
Tags
Summary
The monsters win, and the man who is supposed to help mother slay them turns out to be the biggest monster of all.
Ten years later, a Witcher lurks in the dark corner of a shitty tavern, a stolen broach dangling from the hilt of his sword like a trophy.
Ten years later, Julian still remembers everything he’s been taught. By mother, by the men in his family, and especially by monsters.
“You must have some review for me,” he says, a gleaming smile one that’s been sharpened to perfection with years of tutelage. “Three words or less.”
---------------
Jaskier is Renfri's son, and ten years is plenty of time to prepare a suitable punishment for the Butcher of Blaviken.

Summary
THIS STORY IS GOING TO BE SUSPENDED FOR NOW CAUSE I'M HARD STUCK. It's not abandoned but it is very possible that it'll took another 6 years before I come back to it. Sorry.
Dís was checking on their food stock one spring morning when the news of Thorin’s arrival back in the Blue Mountains reached her. Her heart dropped when she heard that it was only Thorin and none of the rest of the company that went to reclaim Erebor. This could only mean one thing: their quest has failed and everyone else is slain, including her sons.
Thorin was in very good spirits when he reached the Blue Mountains. The last couple of weeks in The Shire had been blissful, Bilbo had been quite enthusiastic now that they were in the privacy of his own home. He strode down the street with purpose, eager to see Dís and tell his sister that they have reclaimed Erebor. He stopped dead when he spotted her. Why does she looked like she was about to murder him!?

Of Dwobbits, Dragons and Dwarves by ISeeFire for Drenagon
Fandoms: The Hobbit - All Media Types, The Hobbit - J. R. R. Tolkien, The Hobbit (Jackson Movies)
02 Mar 2018
Tags
Summary
Bilba has been a slave her entire life. All she knows of the outside world is what she sees from time to time outside the gates of Moria and the stories her mother used to tell her. Stories of a place called the Shire where her mother once lived and a placed called Erebor where, as far as she knows, her father still lives. Stories of dragons a thousand times larger, and more intelligent, than the beasts the orcs rode and of a strange concept called freedom where one was allowed to live as they wished with no one to tell them what they could, or could not do.
The stories meant little to Bilba. The only future she had was to live, and die, as a slave as countless number had before her.
And then the orcs dragged an injured female firedrake through the gates, her rider screaming obscenities behind her as he fought to reach her side...and everything changed.

Summary
Belladonna Baggins the Second is an Odd Hobbit, the Mad Baggins. She has always acted every inch of the Took her mother was, until her parents died that is. Left with her younger brother to care for, she has tried to make herself become every inch the Baggins she needs to be. She doesn't realize how badly that was going until a wizard shows up on her stoop. With nowhere else to go, Bella packs up both herself and Bilbo and joins the Company of one Thorin Oakenshield. The only problem is they think she's a male, and she's not sure how to tell them she isn't without meeting the business end of someone's axe. The lesson to be learned of all of this? Don't listen to Meddlesome Wizards.

Summary
Roach carries her owner and his daughter over precarious terrain day in and day out, pushing herself well beyond her limits as she senses the mess of emotions coming from Geralt. There truly is no time to waste; not this far in the Blue Mountains, where human lives become scarce and merciless wildlife has taken over.
The journey is as long and tiring as it always is, though now Geralt has Cirilla and his thoughts to keep him company through the mountain passes.
And boy, do they ever.
“I can’t believe you,” Cirilla continues to berate him for the snippets of the conversation she overheard between her two guardians back at their campsite, “Why did you treat him like that? I love you, Geralt, but that’s just mean.” Geralt can feel the vibrations of her voice against his chest where she leans into him on the saddle.
His heart clenches at her proclamation of love, then quickly twists for a whole new reason when she brings up his treatment of the troubadour.
She isn’t wrong.

Geralt's Unknowing Courtship of Death by Rxel
Fandoms: Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types
07 Oct 2022
Tags
Summary
"What the fuck do you mean I've been courting you my whole life?"
Jaskier, personification of Death, bemused and a little bit entertained, strums his lute. "You really didn't know this whole time? But I told you when we first met."
Geralt thought about it and slowly put his hand on his face. "Fuck."
--
Geralt has been having the strangest few weeks. First, he acquires a bard from a shitty tavern in Posada who spouts some nonsense at him despite it being clear that he couldn't possibly be the person he was talking about. He's certain he would have remembered meeting him in his relatively long life.
Second, the bard - Jaskier - doesn't seem like he's leaving any time soon despite Geralt trying to lose him.
Third, Jaskier keeps looking at him. He keeps touching him. He keeps... He keeps. And it's doing something strange to him. His stomach flips, and he originally thought he was sick, but as time continues to pass, he has to acknowledge the fact that may or may not be acquiring feelings for said bard.
And that horse. Why was it... green? Given, it's the lightest shade of green, but really?

Summary
Jaskier's start in life was unfortunate, but sadly not unheard of. He was put in a sack, less than an hour old, and chucked in the river. For many in his position that would of been the end of it, but the Yaruga heard his cut off wail and swept him into her loving embrace.
Less than an hour old and Jaskier had already died and been reborn as the newest child of Mama Yaruga.

Summary
It takes Geralt an embarrassingly long time to suspect his bard might not be entirely human. He doesn’t have the strongest case either, more of a gut feeling.
So Jaskier is attractive, charming, smells good and doesn’t like to talk about his past. Not really something Geralt can confront him about.A tale of two idiots, Jaskier's hidden double life, Geralt's inability to admit his own feelings and the whole mess that unfurls with it.

Summary
"This is a very simple experiment, bard." Cold blue eyes met Jaskier's. "The Witcher over there? He's dying. There's only one thing that can save him at this point."
Jaskier glanced towards Geralt apprehensively; his head lolled back. If he was conscious, he gave no sign of it.
"I want you to bond him."
Jaskier jerked, staring at the man in horror. "No."
Soul-bonding was intimate, a moment reserved in private between two people who had decided to share every joy and every sorrow. They would feel each other's pain, know if the other was on the brink of death. It was a bond that could only be forged with good intention, with the purest motive. There was no way to undo it. Bonding Geralt would mean surrendering half his soul to the Witcher, to experiencing every pain, and every woe. But worse than that. Witchers didn't have souls. Jaskier would be throwing away the greatest connection he could ever experience, for a man who would never be able to return it. Jaskier was romantic enough to admit that he wanted a romance of the ages, and a bond of certainty.
Not this.
"Let me make this easier for you: bond him, or I'll kill you."

Summary
“For you!” Julian cried, shoving a fistful of weeds in Renfri’s direction, his smile wide and carefree.
Renfri carefully took them in her hands that were only shaking a little bit now, smearing red onto green stems and yellow petals.Julian clambered into the bed beside her and crawled halfway onto her lap. “I got you flowers, ‘cause you’re so pretty like them!”
“These aren’t flowers, they’re weeds.” Renfri told him, rolling her eyes but allowing the contact with ease. Somedays it seemed like Julian was the only person in the entire castle who wasn’t afraid of her.
“They look like flowers.” He said, crinkling his nose.
“They’re dandelions,” Renfri informed her brother with a tiny smile, “They grow everywhere, even places they perhaps shouldn’t. That’s why they’re a weed.”
“Perhaps they’re a little like you,” She teased, “Growing in even the scariest of places with no fear.” Like a monster’s heart, she doesn’t say.
“Like a superpower!” Julian gasped.
Renfri separated one dandelion from the little clutch and reached out to tuck it behind a little ear. “For the stubborn hero, Jaskier.”
