    Summary

    In which Jaskier loses himself, and Geralt helps him find himself again.

    -Excerpt-

    It’s on the day when Jaskier no longer has the strength to talk, or sing, or even drag himself over to the hole in the ground to relieve himself that his self imposed hunger strike ends.

    He just lies there in the hay, mumbling curses at the ceiling, and wishing he was still asleep. If he was asleep, he could dream, and he could see Geralt and kiss his stupid face and they’d talk and laugh and Jaskier would eat a whole fucking pie in one bite, and then maybe a full course meal too while he was at it. And he’d look at the stars and he’d talk to someone who actually listened and he wouldn’t be staring up at that god damn chandelier.

    He knows something is wrong, in the back of his mind. He knows he should get up and do something, but when he tries to sit up, the world tilts on its axis, threatening to send him back down again.

    It’s when he finds himself absentmindedly gnawing at one of his boot laces that he realises he doesn’t have a choice anymore. Nobody is coming. Nobody is fucking coming, and he is so fucking hungry.
