Summary
Where the loss of ignorance is more valuable than the knowledge gained, and Edward figures out the source of alchemy a lot sooner than before.
"Edward has cockroaches under his skin and leeches in his veins. He's vibrating and bursting and his body is too small, too big, doesn't fit quite right. He needs Al to know - needs to tell someone, anyone, but he will cut out his own tongue before he burdens anyone else with this knowledge."
(Now with a TV Tropes page!)

Summary
In a world where witchers were created with a built-in second chance when a normal man would die, Geralt believes he killed one of his brothers in the Tournament and refuses to cause the death of another witcher ever again. This might mean a lot more time rescuing his fellows, but also a lot more people who will come when the battle with the Wild Hunt finally calls.
Basically a retelling of Witcher 3 game with a lot of liberties taken. Almost everyone not met in game is inspired by inexplicifics' works one way or another, though none of them match exactly after they mutated these last two months of nonstop writing.
Written for the AWAU Fan Server Prompt Fest (Summer 2023) Prompt 3 "Animal Transformation". Though ultimately prompts 1, 4, and 5 all sort of snuck in there too. The first chapter was going to be a standalone thing, but then the story just kept coming, so I figured I'd finish it instead of making it a series.

Summary
Some people make the mistake of assuming he's naive about sex, for the simple reason he hasn't dated in a while. Tim has called him a prude, at one point, and implied that he was somehow afraid of the intimacy required by the act; he wasn’t entirely wrong, but this definitely isn’t the reason for Jon's disinterest and general bafflement toward what most people seemed to consider as "what makes them human".
Jon simply hasn't found the right person. That is all it is: high standards, and a reticence to let people in.
(In which Jon finds out society is wrong about what a romantic relationship should be.)

This is what my mental canon of early Ben Solo looked like, but I was unable to spell it out right. Excellent work!
