    Summary

    "Jaskier keeps heroically silent while they eat, commenting only on the quality of the food, which is adequate, if unfortunately bland, as is common for the cuisine in this part of the continent. When Geralt has finished, Jaskier goes around the table to sit on the bench beside him. Jaskier sees the man's entire body stiffen, but it doesn't faze him. Jaskier now has something he's never had about Geralt before: knowledge, and knowledge is most definitely power.

    “What do you want?” Geralt grunts, when Jaskier rests his hand on one wide thigh.

    “What I've always wanted.” What he never thought he could have. “You.”"

    Summary

    From the moment Jaskier approached his table, he's always smelled thick and heady with arousal-- part of being eighteen, Geralt supposed. He used to stay in a dark corner of a sad tavern and drink to distract himself while the Jaskier finished his songs, plopped down at the table across from him and pouted, then turned his most lovelorn look at a pretty maid. Geralt drank deep as Jaskier whispered sweet nothings and soft, dark promises to her, felt the heat grow in the room as the blush rose in them both and they fumbled away. By the time he could hear Jaskier coming-- panting, hot and fast-- he usually found the shattered remains of his tankard in his fist.
     

    Geralt can hear all of Jaskier's amorous encounters... and finds he can't bring himself to stay out of earshot.

    Summary

    “Oh shit,” Jaskier muttered. He crawled as far back into his little shelter as he could fit. He hadn’t planned for this to happen. He hadn’t thought this through at all. He didn’t know what to do next.

    In the blink of an eye, the monster had rounded his shield of roots and was staring directly at him.

    Now he’d never know what that look in Geralt’s eyes meant, that quick glance he had chosen to direct at Jaskier when it appeared he’d had less than a second left to live himself.

    Jaskier’s hands were clenched at his sides. He wanted nothing more than to wrap his arms around his head and make himself as small as possible. But if he was going to die anyway, he wasn’t going to spend his last moments curled up in a frightened little ball.

     
    Or, Geralt is doing a fine job of pretending being followed around by a pining bard does nothing but annoy him, until Jaskier gets hurt.

    Summary

    Geralt tries to puzzle out why Jaskier keeps following him into danger after danger... completely missing the obvious. There's too great a gulf between what his witcher senses pick up, and what his damaged heart is willing to accept.

    //

     

    "The bard’s heart always beats faster whenever the witcher draws near. That isn't unusual. So do the hearts of most humans he encounters. Not only do they blanch and recoil at the sight of his white hair and amber eyes, but they begin to sweat, the stench of their fear a sour tang at the back of his throat.

     

    But the bard never seems to reek of fear."

    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

    Geralt manages to get his life saved by a peculiarly friendly Siren, and as payment agrees to allow the creature to accompany him, unsure as to why Jaskier would want to leave his lake behind, nor why he would choose Geralt to tag along with.

    Summary

    “You need to relax,” the bard says again, softer. “Let me help you with that.”

    Before Geralt can really say anything, Jaskier is already undoing the hooks of his doublet, tugging it off and switching his attention to the ties on his breeches, never taking his eyes off the witcher.

    “What the fuck do you think you’re doing, bard?”

    “Shut up, Witcher,” with a move of his head Jaskier gestures for Geralt to sit down, eyes still fixed on him, and for some reason, Geralt cannot resist. “Tell me how you like it.”

    Though the witcher understands, what Jaskier means, he can’t make himself say a single word, desperately trying to figure out why he’s still watching instead of telling the bard to stop fucking undressing.

    “Tell me how you like to be touched,” Jaskier insists, breath hitching as he slips a hand under his breeches and touches himself. “And imagine that everything I do is being done to you.”

    “Well, we’ll have all the time in the world to make it official, right after we check out this—what was it?”

    Geralt side eyes him. “Abandoned cottage. Disappearances. Strange sightings.”

    “Right, yes, after we deal with this mysterious hut deep in the woods. No problem. Days and weeks and years aplenty after that."

    Summary

    Since forgiving Geralt for the incident on the mountain, he and Jaskier had met in Hagge, Aedirn, near the end of every autumn. They'd spend a night drinking and playing cards before making the journey up to Kaer Morhen for the winter. However, when Geralt arrives for their fourth meeting in the town, he finds Jaskier - always the first to arrive - is not only not waiting for him, but is missing.

    With only Roach and a stallion he found on his way into town for company, Geralt sets about trying to find his missing bard. Will he succeed?

    Summary

    "Jaskier, how drunk are you?" he asks, and Jaskier breathes a laugh into Geralt's shoulder.

    "I am excellently drunk, Geralt, I've done a very good job of it. I am as drunk as a Skelligen skunk."

    "There are no skunks on Skellige."

    "I am as drunk as a Skelligen monk, then."

    Which is fairly drunk, all things considered; Skelligens don't fuck around about that sort of thing.


    Geralt has been foolish about many things in his long life, and every time to his detriment; he'll not make the mistake of deluding himself that someone like Jaskier, with all the world open to him and everything to offer in return, would ever really choose Geralt's company in that way.

    (Geralt may not be a reliable narrator of his own life.)

    What Geralt doesn’t know is that in the years they’ve travelled separately, Jaskier has actually met several Witchers.

    Summary

    A dead end hunt leaves Geralt overwhelmed and riding on the wrong side of the potions that help him do his duties. When he makes it back to camp, Jaskier finally proves too much to resist. Fortunately, Jaskier proves eager to assist.

    Summer worms its way under his skin during the hot hike back up the side of the grassy knoll where he left Roach to mind Jaskier. The long stretch of Redanian countryside is bursting with summer growth – the grass as tall as a man in many places – and overcome with fragrant wildflowers.
