With a Conquering Air by inexplicifics

Summary
From the kinkmeme: AU Warlord!Geralt receives Tribute!Jaskier as a sacrifice to appease him in every way possible. Jaskier has no choice on the matter and he’s fully aware of the awful rumours that have spread about Geralt and his ruthless conquests. (But we all know those aren’t legit.) A classic angst with a happy ending please! A dash of smut to heal those scars and a sprinkle of new found love!
Jaskier arrives at Kaer Morhen knowing his family gave him up without a second thought, and absolutely sure that the dreaded Warlord of the North will value him even less than his own blood did. But the White Wolf and his pack are not what Jaskier expected...and if he's unreasonably lucky, Kaer Morhen might become far more of a home than Lettenhove ever was.
...He is, in fact, going to be unreasonably lucky, because the Warlord of the North is a far finer monarch - and a far better man - than Redania's king has ever dreamed of being.

Summary
"You'll change your mind one day," says the innkeep. "The road can't love you back."
What a strange way to flatten something so beautiful, Jaskier thinks. What a small way to love.
Or: When Jaskier is hit with a curse that prevents him from having sex, he's lucky that the first person he meets is a Witcher. It's even luckier that Jaskier is used to hitting the road, because Geralt isn't waiting up.

Summary
This apartment, these walls and corners, these floors and doorways, they’re Dirk’s refuge. His shell, his armor. This place is light and warmth in an endlessly empty dark sea, a piece of the past to cling to in the wreckage of the future. A gift from his brother, a birthday present, the present of having birthdays, of being a human in a place meant for humans. Dirk could go out on rocket board, on rap-bot, on rafts, following the gulls, living free out under the sky, sailing by the light of the stars, but always he’d return to his sanctuary, his roost, his home.
This apartment is Dave’s cage, and he spent thirteen years crammed up against the bars by a man who did not love him.

Summary
Nothing changed and everything remained the same; mundane, routine, suffocating. So when the news broke that a student went missing, it was hard for Bakugou not to take notice. For as long as he could remember, he'd been empty. Everything he did was under a haze of apathy and it was rare for something other than anger to shatter the wall that dulled his senses. Kirishima's disappearance became something to distract him from the hollowness, whether he wanted it to or not.

Summary
Your name is Dave Strider. Your memory is failing to behave in a linear manner. Sometimes you wake up younger, sometimes you wake up older. Sometimes your memory skips and you do not understand where you were last.
Your name is John Egbert. You love Dave Strider. His time travel is an unsolvable problem you will forever be pretending to solve in a hopeless attempt to be by his side.

Summary
==> BE THE SURVIVOR
Your name is JOHN EGBERT, and you are TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OLD. Six years ago, your entire civilization COLLAPSED within the span of THREE MONTHS, leaving you and your family some of the ONLY SURVIVORS. You managed to stay alive because you had been in CLOSE CONTACT with the thing that would eventually WIPE OUT three-fourths of the human population, and have since used your resources to help any other refugees you find.
Unfortunately, this has given everyone the widespread impression that you have all of the answers to EVERY PROBLEM EVER, which you most certainly do not.

Summary
Marco Bodt has a problem. He has the biggest hero complex out there, and though it gains him friends he isn’t thought of kindly by the police: they don’t appreciate a scruffy wannabe bohemian trying to do their job. He helps people, and then he vanishes. But when he saves a rather hostile man from being mowed down by an over-enthusiastic bus driver on the streets of Trost, he doesn’t get the reaction he expects. He gets shouted at for helping, for saving, and realises that sometimes people don’t want to be saved, or worse still, don’t think they should be.
He also begins to find that no matter how hard he tries, he can't pull himself away from the one person who destroyed his universe... and then put it together again.
One thing's for certain: it's going to be a hard pill to swallow.

I've never seen HIV+ content before, and presented so beautifully! Not to mention the anxiety, but that's been done before. The different sexualities as well!! Very cool to find a fic like this that isn't just mlm and nothing else. Still really great, and I'll probably be re-reading this one for forever tbh

Summary
We stopped telling the story a long time ago. Once upon a time, though, people knew that the last person to die in a parish one year would have to hang back the next year and help Death get his shit together.
I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. 'Jean Kirschtein, Death's secretary' doesn't exactly have a ring to it.

Summary
Two years.
It's been two years since we fought tooth and nail against the ruination of mankind, and for two years it's been pretty quiet. Marco and I, we're moving forward. Well, we were.
I guess a story about ghosts never really ends.
(The sequel to Ghost Story.)

If I could paste this and Ghost Story to the backs of my eyelids and just live in the words forever, I would! I'm constantly baffled that these aren't real published New York Times Bestsellers, the author deserves it for making me cry so many times. I probably reread it twice a year. Super dark but always my comfort fic. Best boys.

Jean knew that this whole working thing could have its small surprises, but he doesn't think that the job description ever called for him meeting an attractive ghost boy with a face full of freckles and a taste for classic novels.

My very first love, and why I'm obsessed with ghost fics now. Absolutely perfect, now I have a certain emotional reaction to hearing Frank Sinatra songs (that emotion is sadness. It's heart wrenching).

Bookmarker's Notes
The OG. Reading back on it, the dialogue and exposition isn't exactly what I thought it was back then, but it was still a nice feel. I think if the authors rewrote it now it'd be one of the great ones. So many fun tropes! And artist!Jean was always a favorite of mine.
