    Summary

    Years and years after Kaer Morhen, in the bed of a particularly skilled prostitute, Geralt learned that other things besides injury and stress could trigger his strange mutation. Warmth. Safety. A lovers’ touch. He’d also learned that no matter how good of an actress a lady of the night may be, there were limits to what a human would put up with for the sake of coin.

    When Jaskier comes along, the White Wolf already knows to hide his freakish nature as best as he’s able.

    Summary

    “Freak.”

    Geralt doesn’t flinch.
    It’s nothing he hasn't heard before, usually followed by a derisive laugh. The stranger might not have meant for him to hear the word, muttered as it is while Geralt's back is turned.
    Even when people have heard about Witcher Syndrome and know what to expect from it, they seem to forget about the more acute senses. So, he pretends that the insult was just an unconscious aside that the man behind him meant to keep to himself, and tries to continue his workout.
    ———
    Witcher Syndrome is a disorder that causes genetic mutations to occur to those who develop it. While some symptoms could almost be considered advantageous, others are clearly detrimental to those affected. As with any disability, there are those with prejudices against those that are “other” or “different”.
    Geralt has spent most of his life learning to protect himself from those who won’t understand that his differences don’t make him a freak.

    But, it will take someone with quite a lot of zest for life and self-love, to show Geralt how to be okay with himself, and to remind him that he is still only human.

    Someone like Jaskier.

    OR: What if superpowers were a disability?
