    Summary

    Getting stuck in Kaedwen in winter had never been on Jaskier's plan. It's cold, they don't appreciate his music and nobody likes their national beverage anyway. The only redeeming thing Kaedwen has is Kaer Morhen, so Jaskier does what any reasonable bard would do in this situation: he decides to charm his way into Kaer Morhen to hibernate with Geralt and the other witchers. If nothing it will be an experience no human has ever had, fuel for songs and poems for years to come, while finally teaching him a thing or two about witchers he's just dying to know.

    Curiosity tended to kill the cat, but Jasker had always seen himself as more of a bird anyway.

    A fully illustrated version of Fayet's Hibernating with Ghosts.

    Summary

    "Geralt is able to scent the guilt on a lying man from ten feet away, to catch sight of half a pawprint in the undergrowth in the dead of night, to know when to lean back before the coming blade can cut through his throat. Much of it comes from his training at Kaer Morhen, where his instincts were honed and enhanced, but even more comes from his travels and experiences while walking the Path. Geralt notices things, because not noticing means death.

    He does not notice the lack of singing."

     

    Something is very wrong with Jaskier.

    Summary

    It’s been years and still, the memory of the bard’s silky voice remains fresh in Geralt’s mind.

    (In which Geralt and Jaskier are reunited - much to the disappointed of the bard, who's become a twisted version of his old self. Geralt won't rest until he finds out what exactly happen to him.

    And he may or may not be in love.)

    Summary

    Jaskier hopped down from the table he had been standing on, and wound his way quickly through the crowd to Geralt’s side, smiling up at him big and bright and like nothing had ever happened.
    Geralt remembered the last words he’d exchanged with the bard, tone cruel and desperate and bitter. He could see Jaskier’s face as he said them. That feeling in his chest tightened and twisted and writhed uncomfortably.

    -

    I've seen so many angsty takes on Geralt and Jaskier navigating their fight on the mountain, but I really wanted to come at that idea from a different angle. So, Geralt feels super bad about everything he said on the mountain and is EXPECTING a huge blowup from Jaskier, but then Jaskier just forgives and forgets like it's nothing and they're travelling together again like usual and why does Geralt still feel kinda shitty about all this?

    Basically, Geralt learns about feeling guilty, and how sometimes apologies are as much for yourself as they are the other person.

    Summary

    It’s during an upbeat evening on his second night with a rowdy crowd that the unexpected happens. The door to the tavern bangs open, hitting the wall with a crack, and in staggers a sopping wet figure with two sword hilts poking over his shoulder and the head of a royal wyvern clutched in his fist.

    “Killed your dragon,” the figure rasps, and if his silhouette in the doorway wasn’t enough to give him away, Jaskier would recognize that rough voice anywhere.

    ----

    Five times Jaskier observed a certain Witcher's senses in action, and one time his own were indulged.

    Summary

    Jaskier is trying to convince Geralt to keep him around. He's finally getting to the interesting part of the real Continent, and it's all because of his taciturn demigod of a tour guide. He's never had so much fun in his post-academic career.

    Geralt is trying just as hard to convince himself that keeping Jaskier around is a terrible idea, and that's only getting more difficult. He's getting used to having company, to indulging in the pack instincts that Vesemir always warned him against.

    The last person Geralt wants to see in the middle of this psycho-emotional crisis is Lambert.

    Lambert brings with him a host of other problems, like how to hunt a monster that isn't a monster and how to casually have sex with the man you're trying not to fall in love with. But if Lambert and Jaskier are going to jointly insist on the bard following them into danger, he can at least prepare Jaskier for it.

    Summary

    The only plot here is these two dummies seeing more in each other than the world does and falling madly in love.

    “What I want to know is,” Jaskier continued. “has anyone ever...taken care of you?”

    “Taken care of me? Of course. That’s what I pay for after all,” answered Geralt.

    “No, no. I don’t mean orgasm.” said Jaskier. “I mean. Taken care of you.  Taken you. Have you ever utterly surrendered?”

    “You and your pretty words,” said Geralt. “Be plain, Jaskier.”

    Jaskier said.  “Fine. Has anyone ever fucked you until your toes curled?” 

    Geralt was still and thought a moment before he answered. “That isn’t usually what people want from me.”

    “Yes, but people are tragically unimaginative. No one is only one thing. Least of all you.”

    “I suppose that’s true,” answered Geralt.

    Summary

    A young Jaskier gets involved in a nasty curse, a gift from a resented ex-lover. He never paid much atention to it until years later, when he finally understand exactly what has she done to him.
    This is a travel of feelings, a slow-burn romance where you'll see all kinds of love and friendship, with a brave and strong Jaskier as the main guest. Because I love him so fucking much it hurts me.

    Love is my poison and this is a story of that, basically.

    Update 05/2021 because of grammar.

    Summary

    The witchers of Kaer Morhen have never been comfortable with gentle touches. It just isn't who they are. But when Geralt arrives to spend the winter with his brothers looking more relaxed than any of them have felt in years, all due to the affection of a human bard, Lambert and Eskel grow curious. They wonder what it would be like to be touched or held without fear.

    When Lambert runs into Jaskier in a small town in Redania, it's the safest he's felt in years. He and his brothers need touch and kindness more than they're willing to admit, and all Jaskier wants it to help , if only the witchers would let him.

    Geralt and Jaskier are together, all the other relationships are platonic with a good helping of touch-starvation on the side.

    Summary

    Jaskier’s eyes were entirely blood red, the same way Yennefer’s had been when she was possessed by the djinn, but the veins bulging from his skin, red as blood, had Geralt sickened. It used Jaskier’s voice to speak. There was an undercurrent of something much lower but all Geralt could hear was his bard.

    And the way Jaskier’s face contorted into a sneer… Geralt could only think his friend was gone. It would be a mercy to kill him now.

    Summary

    He stepped up to Jaskier. His friend looked the same. Exactly the same. 750 years, and the only difference was a beard and a healing black eye.  

    Geralt reached forward slowly, pushing the hair off of Jaskier’s face. 

    “How is this possible?” He asked. 

    -- 

    Or, when Geralt lives to modern times, his biggest regret is losing his bard. 
    Everything changes when Jaskier gets transported right back into his life.

    Summary

    Jaskier heads to the coast, heads home.

    But not before stopping at Oxenfurt for the winter, because a season of teaching and rekindling with old friends is sure to take his mind off of Geralt. He hears whispers, in the marble halls of Oxenfurt, of impending war. But with his heartbreak still feeling more like an open wound than a scab, he pays them little heed.

    It’s not his war to fight.

    Or is it?

    Summary

    “White Wolf!” Someone new called. A messenger. What else could go wrong? “Have you heard? About your Bard?” This made Geralt turn to him fully so much his neck cracked. “He was caught up in a village not far from here. No one from that village survived the burning. His lute was found.” He said apologetically. Geralt’s wounded leg buckled and he raced to brace himself against Roach. Gone. They were both gone. Yen might have won them their fight, but Geralt felt like he lost the war.

    TLDR: What would Geralt be like throughout season 2 with the idea Jaskier is dead
    Because we all know he's not.
