15 fics written over the course of October 2020!
stuck in the mud (not a metaphor) • G, 1.8k
Geralt falls down a hole.
ao3
on the feeding of witchers • G, 1.4k
Geralt finally brings Jaskier to Kaer Morhen for the winter, and is surprised to find that the bard has been hiding a secret love of cooking.
ao3
window to the soul • T, 2.2k
When they encounter a monster that feeds on strong emotions, Geralt has to use Jaskier to draw it in.
ao3
resurge infra terra • T, 1.2k
It seemed the alderman had been wrong when he said that the creature’s bite killed instantly. Shame Jaskier was only figuring that out now that he was several feet under.
ao3
tension in a touch • T, 1.8k
In the beginning, Jaskier is afraid of Geralt. So, like any reasonable bard in search of a muse, he forces himself to get over it. This is accomplished through a gratuitous amount of touching and some reckless endangerment. Only the classics, as far as he's concerned.
ao3
the process of rewarming • T, 4.3k
Jaskier is finally invited to come stay with Geralt in Kaer Morhen, but they're a bit late to make the journey. And the mountains are treacherous in the winter.
ao3
pursuit (to chase; to follow) • G, 700 words
Jaskier is pursued by unknown assailants.
ao3
a dark and wicked thing • G, 2.2k
Geralt doesn't realize what's happening until it's too late.
Or: Jaskier is afraid of the dark. They realize this at an inopportune moment.
ao3
hematoma of the heart • T, 3.3k
Jaskier realizes two things at once. One: Geralt is going to be livid if he finds out that Jaskier was hurt during a fight, and there’s a very great chance that it will make him not want to take Jaskier on hunts in the future. He’ll say that Jaskier is at risk and is a risk himself, likely to cause Geralt to get distracted and wind up with one of them dead.
And two: Geralt will blame himself.
ao3
trivial encounters • E, 1.7k
“Help me undo them,” Jaskier whines, leaning closer into Geralt’s space. He could probably figure it out, but the drink is making everything so hazy and trivial, it doesn’t feel like a risk at all to ask for Geralt’s help undressing. Feels like a singularly phenomenal idea, actually, the more he thinks about it.
ao3
so easy to say (so hard to do) • T, 600 words
Nilfgaard closes in, and Geralt has to make a choice.
ao3
oh the sweet dregs of love • G, 1.4k
Geralt doesn't like tea unless Jaskier makes it for him.
ao3
deep in the coffin of your chest • T, 2.1k
Geralt gets possessed during a hunt.
ao3
no such thing as an uncompromised touch • T, 1.6k
Geralt knows that Jaskier wants to get him into bed. Geralt is all too willing to go - as long as it doesn't include sex.
ao3
drown all my shadows • T, 1.7k
Jaskier wakes up in an empty field of fog. He's alone.
