Summary
“And his type would be?…” he prompted, not that he gave a hoot about Vetinari’s type.
Sybil smiled noncommittally and took a sip from her teacup. “That’s not for me to say, dear.” Her cup clinked back down against the saucer. “But I’m sure you’ve heard the rumours.”
------
Vimes tries to untangle the rumours surrounding Vetinari and ends up discovering more than he bargained for.

Someone Who Will Love You In All Your Damaged Glory by Zakalwe

Summary
Captain Sam Vimes is getting married...until he isn't.
Vetinari vaguely alludes to Having Feelings, and Vimes self destructs.
Spoilers for Men at Arms, although it diverges somewhere in the middle; this is essentially an exploration of what might happen if Vetinari realised he had feelings for Vimes in the run up to the wedding. There's angst, and Vimes whump, and miscommunication, and probably a million other tropes.

Summary
For various reasons - including an assassination attempt and somebody's terrible language skills - Vimes and Vetinari end up at a Quirmian wedding pretending to be a couple.
For the prompts 'fake relationship' and 'tipping chin up' as requested by red_edelweiss.
Now finished! This was another excuse for me to have fun with some romance tropes; kindly excuse the self-indulgence.

Summary
The stairwell is chilly and quiet. Neither speaks and Dunk’s heart pounds in his ears. He wonders if Lyonel can hear it, echoing off the cold, dark stone. Up and up they go, higher into the tower. and Dunk wonders if they’re going to the roof so Lyonel can throw him off into the sea. He wonders if it would hurt to hit the waves, or if he would die on impact. Were I a bird or a fish, this would not be a problem, as I would just fly or swim away. Were Egg a dragon, he would catch me.

Summary
The orchard unfolded around Lyonel in shafts of sunlight and rippling green, the sweetness of fruit and warm grass lingering in the air even though blossoms had yielded to hard, young apples. Somewhere nearby, bees worked with sacred diligence as he stepped over a fallen branch and into a clearing, stopping abruptly.
Duncan stood at the heart of this clearing, bathed in golden light so vivid it seemed as if the orchard itself had conjured him. A vision haloed by gentle rays that lingered on his broad shoulders. The sunlight danced across his hair and illuminated his smile, turning the moment into a scene so tender and striking it felt like another world. Under the apple trees, surrounded by their sweet scent, Duncan appeared strong yet gentle, shining as if time had paused just to admire him.
Lyonel hesitated, unable to reconcile the Duncan he remembered with the gentle tableau before him. Sunlight and laughter blurred the boundaries of memory, making the familiar suddenly strange. And yet, as if the world snapped back into focus, recognition returned. Sharp, restoring everything Lyonel knew, but still leaving him dazzled by the transformation.Bookmarked by d8DC

Summary
Word crossed Westeros like a wildfire that Lyonel Baratheon had been injured. The word was that he’d been badly injured in some tourney or duel or silly show of arrogant heroism, and had been hurried home to Storm’s End to be treated and to recover. Too bad, was the word, but ain’t these highborns been dropping like flies lately.

Dunk hears the word and drops everything to rush to Lyonel's side.

Summary
On the eve of the Trial of Seven at Ashford, Ser Duncan the Tall and Lord Lyonel share one stolen, tender night.The trial leaves blood on the ground and grief in Duncan’s heart. When Lyonel, shaken and newly aware of how easily he might lose him, begs Duncan to come to Storm’s End, Duncan refuses. Loss weighs too heavily, and pride keeps him moving. A hedge knight does not cling to a lord’s hall, no matter how fiercely he is loved.
So Duncan rides on.
But months along the Kingsroad to Dorne, something is not right. The smell of ale turns his stomach. Campfire stew makes him pale. What he first dismisses as illness begins to whisper another truth, one that ties him to Storm’s End more surely than any vow.

Summary
Jaskier adjusted the lute on his back, the city of Cintra on the horizon. He had not met any friends on his travels to the city, but then again, he hadn’t expected to do so. He was with several other bards, all responding to the call Cintra had made for bards to make a song cycle about Queen Cirilla’s reign. Even with his hasty exit from Redania, he managed to send a letter to a friend who he hoped would be a friendly face in the city, though they had not parted well.
The young queen was shrouded in mystery with a bit of infamy. Everyone knew that she was claimed by the Law of Surprise by the Butcher of Blaviken. The deranged witcher brought some of his witcher friends when Nilfgaard tried to conquer Cintra. Though Cirilla was only twelve at the time, her powers combined with the witchers were able to keep Cintra from the edge of defeat, though her grandmother still lost her life in the process. At the age of twelve, she was put on the throne, despite not being of age.

Summary
"I can't promise you that I'll survive this," Geralt says.
Jaskier closes his eyes, but he nods. "I know. I'm not asking... I know you'll do anything to save her. I would too."
Don't say that. Don't make me pay for my child's life with yours.
It would be the most selfish thing in the world to say, the most hypocritical, and yet Geralt wants to anyway. Wants to be selfish in his love, because it is more worth protecting than anything else he's ever had.
"But," he says instead, "you were right before, and I'll swear it. I swear to you I would never leave you of my own choice. I will be with you as long as I am able, and as long as you'll have me."
(They escape the rusalka and the swamp, but their fears follow them. Geralt and Jaskier turn to each other in the aftermath.)

Summary
Here, now, time holds no meaning for him. He exists only in this moment: an arrow let loose with careless fingers, hoping for a target. He cannot stop.

Formerly titled Unseen
After the mountain, Jaskier is captured and experimented on by a Mage of Nilfgaard. Somehow, he escapes. Now if only he could bring himself to believe it.
