    Summary

    “Come on, Geralt. Take the day off, won’t you? Spend it with me. We can drink hot vodka and cuddle by the fire. What do you say, eh, old boy?”

    Geralt glanced over at the dirty streak of snow that had been trampled through the tavern entrance, then over at the fire roaring invitingly in the hearth.

    “I’m…inclined to agree with you,” he finally said.

    “Really!? You want a cuddle!?”

    Silence fell over the tavern as a few curious patrons turned their heads. Jaskier cleared his throat then leaned forward, lowering his voice. “You want a cuddle?” he repeated in a whisper.

    “About taking the day off,” Geralt smiled.

    “Shame.” Jaskier then patted Geralt’s glove and let his palm rest comfortably on top of it.

    Or: Jaskier is desperate for Geralt to take the day off after a long week of witchering, but as always, nothing ever goes to plan.

    Summary

    Alexander takes the letter from my hands, and I know he sees the name on the envelope because he sets it on the table without opening it, quickly, like the words would burn him if he read them.

    “Oliver,” Alexander says carefully, his voice a mixture of fear, wonderment, and grief. “Are you sure you want me to –?”

    “I need to know if you can see what I see,” I tell him. “You’re the only one who could be objective about it. Meredith’s too prejudiced against him. Pip would just pity me. I can’t talk to Wren. You’re the only one who can be objective. You’ll tell me if it’s nothing. You always have.”

    Or Firsts can be a little more...complicated. This series explores some more unconventional Firsts for Victor and Yuuri as they navigate life and love together.
