    Summary

    “Here’s one way this goes,” Silco said at last, twirling his glass in his fingers. “We leave each other alone, you patch up your guilt about Felicia in your way, and I do it in mine. We stay out of each others’ way. We agree not to try and kill each other again for the good of the undercity.”

    “Is that what you want, Sil?” Vander asked.

    Silco shrugged. “How do you think this goes?”

    “You crawl out of whatever hole you’ve been hiding in and take the bed upstairs, get some real treatment, let someone help you tend your face- I’ll do it, if you’ll let me, and we figure out how to keep Vi and Powder safe and make things better where we can.”

    Silco, his wounds still fresh, finds Vander's letter.

    Summary

    Aiden stared at him. “…you stole my knife.”
    “Let go of me, Witcher,” Julian growled, clenching the knife tighter in his hands.
    “How the fuck did you steal my knife?!”

    Or: Aiden gets a contract to ‘escort an unwilling noble’ (read: kidnap and smuggle) to Cidaris.
    It may just be the worst contract he’s ever taken.

    Summary

    For weeks he’s been nauseous, dizzy, unable to sleep but exhausted. Unwell in ways he couldn’t quite ignore. He’d thought he was getting sick, or maybe his life was catching up to him, all the things he’s been exposed to, the toxic air, the rot of the river, but then his chest had started to ache.

    Silco finds himself in a predicament just when everything is about to change.

    Summary

    Geralt has had a miserable time in Redania, contracts far en few between, and decides to go fill a contract put forth by the Viscount de Lettenhove.
    When the Viscount tells Geralt to name his price, he names a night with him. A night with the Viscount, just to see the other man waver and refuse. To Geralt's surprise, the noble agrees.

    --000--

    “Butcher,” the Viscount breathes out, and Geralt tries his best not to flinch.
    Instead, he looks at the man coolly. The word from the Viscount’s mouth makes him inexplicably angry. He shouldn’t be surprised at the moniker, hasn’t been in a long while, but right now it stings in a new and unexpected way. He’s angry that the man that loves his people so much, has tried to save their children and kill the monster, now isn’t even seeing him as the last resort he was when he was a nameless witcher.

    The viscount blinks dark lashes over his blue eyes and opens his mouth to speak, but Geralt cuts him off.

    “I said I’d take the contract. You said to name my price. Are those still the terms?”
