    Summary

    He’s halfway past the tavern when he realises that he’s still got Stede’s book wedged under his arm. Now’s the time. He can throw it away now. Set it on fire, throw it into one of those braziers they’ve got, burning through a midden of shells and ropes and bits of old tar. But he burns with a need to know what it says, and yet there is no one to read it.
     

    ------

    In which Ed finds someone to read him Stede's journal after he's gone, and ends up devastated as a result.

    Summary

    In books and songs, there are always clues that warn the audience that a great tragedy is about to occur. A spot of blood against the clean floor. A broken window, perhaps, or a darkened home. Their hearts would race with anticipation only to gasps as the true horror unfolded.

    For Jaskier, the tragedy looked like this:

    Two bodies moving awkwardly off the tumbled bedspread.

    Dark hair tumbling over shoulders bared by a shirt that was far too large for a woman’s body.

    Familiar scars left behind by a life of war joined now by a deep bruise along one collarbone in the shape of a mouth.

    Yellow eyes meeting his with agony marring their depths—too much emotion to belong to the man responsible for the way Jaskier’s chest seemed collapse around the shards of his broken heart.

    Summary

    Falling in love with his roommate is, objectively, a bad idea—but most of the major decisions of Jaskier's life have been bad ideas, and they've gotten him this far.

    Summary

    People didn’t like to touch Geralt unless it was for a purpose. To hand him coin so he could deal with a couple of pesky monsters, to try and best him in a fight, or to lay with him for a night after they’ve been paid. People didn’t like touching Geralt, but Jaskier isn’t people.

    Jaskier touches him all the time, when he’s drunk and trying to regain his balance, when he’s tired and needs someone to lean on, when he needs Geralt’s attention he will press his fingertips to Geralt’s elbow. And Geralt? He finds himself fixating on those fingertips.

    Yennefer has warned him, told him that his control wasn’t as good as he thought it was, but as Jaskier stares at him, wide eyed and open mouthed Geralt can only hide his head in shame and blame the summer heat.

    For all the times Jaskier might have touched him, this is the first time Geralt reciprocated.

    Summary

    Maybe Geralt should have learned his lesson the last time he made an angry wish.
    Maybe it'll stick this time

    "But part of me wonders...what if one of those rare times I forgot to hug him goodbye, or failed to say "I love you," turns out to be the last time I have that chance?
    Lots can go wrong in an indifferent universe."
    -Cecil Palmer, Welcome to Night Vale episode 88 (Things Fall Apart)

    Summary

    After. After the mountain and the shouting and the utter ache that's taken up residence in his chest. After. He returns to what he knows, to Oxenfurt and his students. He cuts his hair, he grows his beard. He remakes himself, renames himself, he is Julian again for the first time in a long time. And still it isn't enough. He drinks, and he teaches, and wonders if this is all his life has brought him. And that's when Fate pushes him into a blinding light, and lands a Witcher and his Child Surprise on his doorstep.

    Summary

    Its been nearly a year since they'd parted ways and Jaskier was just fine with that. Honestly. He was getting by just fine before some Nilfgaardian bastards decided to barge right into his path and now he's at his wits end.

    Why would they think Geralt would ever come back for him?

    Summary

    “His hope died in that room then, and he wanted nothing more than to sink deeper into the cold stone until nothing was left of him except for legend and lyrics, his soul hummed out through the throats of those who couldn’t get the tune of his legacy out of their heads but would remain forever unaware of the fate that befell its creator.“

    Just when Jaskier thought he had nothing left to lose, an unexpected savior forces him on a road of recovery that he never prepared to walk.

    Summary

    “Bard wandered right through the next town over,” a farmer says, scratching a patchy beard. "You know what folk are like over there. They don’t particularly like Witchers. Hate them, in fact.”

    Geralt turns his head. The group hasn’t seen him. He made sure to pick a booth in the darkest and furthest corner in the tavern, content to just drink until the sun went down; and then he could get some sleep.

    But now, ale and sleep are the last things on his mind.

    “They’ve been trying to get their hands on a Witcher for years,” another farmer joins in, picking at some leftover food on his plate.

    The first man shrugs, lifting his tankard to his mouth. “If you can’t go about killing an actual Witcher, do the next best thing: kill it’s bed-warmer.”

    Summary

    A year post-dragon hunt, an already vulnerable and lonesome Jaskier is taken by the Nilfgaardian army in an effort to torture Cirilla's location out of him. His captors are people that he already knows, and that just does not make sense to him. And then, horrifyingly, it does.

    Summary

    Connor just wanted the teasing to stop. It was mostly harmless, the constant jabs at his personal life and Officer Chen trying to set him up with every android she had ever met.

    It didn't sit right with him. Each comment making his stress rise bit by bit. He hesitated when Reed offered an arrangement, but he didn't see what harm pretending could do.
