    Summary

    Being in love with a witcher is a strange feeling. Jaskier feels like there’s some sort of coating on his teeth, a film he can’t quite swish away whenever Geralt kisses him quick and filthy in a back-alley. See, loving a witcher doesn’t mean he’ll love you back. Love you now, but not tomorrow, they say.

    Summary

    “I am so bringing this up next time you make fun of me for coming down to breakfast in a cloak and gloves.”

    Which is mostly accounted to Lambert and Yennefer, but Geralt will never pass up an opportunity to make Jaskier get pissy enough to start throwing bacon. Geralt grunts and gets a better hold on Jaskier’s waist, tugging at him. “Come here.”

    Jaskier laughs, a quick, bright sound that startles out of him in a way that warms Geralt completely. He puts up some resistance, regardless. “No, no no no, I’m not done yet.”

    “I can tell you what happens,” Geralt says as he manages to get him down to where he can hook his chin on his shoulder.

    Summary

    “Where did you get that?” he growled, and Jaskier grinned at him, the same mirthless, toothy grin he’d had that afternoon. He smelled not one iota afraid, even with Geralt looming over him and having bruised him.

    “From that lovely innkeep,” he said, and Geralt could almost taste the venom in the words. The smug satisfaction increased tenfold.

    “You stole. Again.”

    Jaskier’s face sobered abruptly, nothing but banked fury in his eyes. “He was neither weak nor starving. Instead, he sent you away for nothing but your profession. He should be glad I didn’t do anything more… drastic.”


    Or: 5 times Jaskier steals grain to teach people a lesson, and one time he buys it instead.

    Summary

    “I can remember the entire thing, and I’ll take it down on paper once we make camp for the night. Got my invitation to eternal damnation. Get in line, pass the wine, we’re going straight to hell!”

    Geralt’s pierced heart freezes, and it takes him a heavy, long moment as his blood runs cold through his veins without any added toxicity to get ahold of his suddenly churning emotions. He can just picture Jaskier’s pyre now, and all the bigots who would line up to applaud the demise of a loud-spoken free-spirit. “You can’t perform that.”

    Summary

    "I love when you look at me like that," Jaskier says and his voice is low, like a secret never to be confessed again. There's a wide smile curving his lips yet it feels timid, lacking the boldness usually coming with it.

    Geralt tilts his head. "Like what?"

    "Like..." Jaskier wets his lips and takes a deep breath, eyes flying around the room as if they will find the proper words hanging from the walls. He huffs, a bittersweet thing. "Like you never want me to stop talking."
