Summary
Yellow eyes move inside the shadows, then comes a streak of teeth and fur. He cries out, knocked to the ground by some growling beast...
He hits the ground hard, not for the first time this week, swearing at the impact. As he leans forward to scramble to his feet, he sees a long shadow fall over him. Hopeful, he looks up, expecting to see Geralt.
Only, of course not. Geralt’s left, and why would a witcher be anywhere near when you’re alone, facing something strange that might want to kill you?

Summary
He reaches for the bard’s hand, but the world seems to pause, time peeling away, like he’s just thrown back a potion. Jaskier, flinching as he reaches out towards him, his wide blue eyes meeting Geralt’s golden ones. He doesn’t like what he sees there. He wishes he’d looked sooner; he wishes he hadn’t looked at all.
Jaskier snatches his hand away.

Summary
Louis finds himself dreaming and has some time alone to his own thoughts for once. Armand, Daniel, and Louis navigate the obstacles of continuing the interview.
The blood is thin and bitter with the taste of aspirin for a headache. He slides his thumb across a fang, hearing the man's delight at the dark blood that wells there. He slides his thumb across his wrist, smearing his blood there. The wound heals as he dances through his mind; he sends him home with the memory of interviewing to find and purchase rare books for a private collector. He won’t particularly care about not getting the job and his life will be unaffected.
On a different day, he might not have woken up in his home at all. Lucky then, that he’s in their home, in a sphere of unspoken safety. For Louis, Armand makes sacrifices.

Summary
“I know it’s difficult, but regardless,” Aziraphale puffed his chest out with sheer resolution, determination shining on his face. “I would love to give it a try.”
Love. Give it a try.
The words danced in Crowley’s brain, like Go-go dancers holding flashing neon signs.
In which two dumbasses older than time are bad at words.

Summary
Jaskier gets jumped by a bunch of bandits, who happen to be so dumb as to stab him with an ancient artifact. When he wakes up, the bandits are slaughtered, and Jaskier has a new hunger. He decides he can't and won't live like this, and searches out a witcher to kill him when he's unsuccessful himself. Of course......he finds Geralt, or does Geralt find him?
---000---
When Jaskier wakes up, the light is uncommonly bright to his eyes, and he has to squint against it. He’s not sure he remembers going to sleep the previous night, and briefly accuses himself of gulping down the bottle of Toussainti wine he’d filched from the inn, leaving a few crowns in its place.He rubs his hands over his face, and realises that as he does so, the strange metallic scent that hangs in the air gets stronger. When he pulls his hands away to look at his palms, he stiffens. There are red stains on the skin, some of it dried and flaking in the creases.
It’s very definitely not wine.

Summary
Jaskier is the fourth son of the minor noble house of Pankratz. He has always wanted to leave Lettenhove to explore, but is limited by the expectations that come with his station. When his parents betroth him to a Duke, he thinks it might be his chance to see the world, and let the world see him, and hear his music.
He sets out on a sea voyage to meet his new husband, but before he ever arrives, the vessel is set upon by pirates. Captain Rience has reasons to leave Jaskier as the sole survivor, and none of them are good.
The thing Rience has forgotten, the only thing pirates have to fear on the high seas.....are other pirates.
--00--
On the eight day they had turned away from the coast, making their way into open sea to cut days off their journey. The shortcut across the open waters should have been straightforward.
It should have been safe.Series

Summary
Julian’s childhood is a nice one. He’s allowed to do anything — as long as it's out of sight of his father — and there’s books and music and the garden.

Summary
Daniel can tell right away that something is deeply, unsettlingly wrong. And that’s when he realizes that Armand hasn’t moved his legs once in Daniel’s sight, which has been trained on him nearly the entire time. How long had it taken Louis to recover from his spinal injury?
“He had a lot more going on,” Armand wheezes. “But, to answer your question without consulting your abysmal recordings? Months.”
“Uh, they’re not so easily consulted at the moment,” Daniel says, trying to maintain his balance. It’s going to be a fucking miracle if he can get himself back on his feet, let alone haul a temporarily paralyzed Armand along with him. “I’m gonna let the head thing slide for the time being.”
“The head thing?”
“You. In mine.”
“How generous.”
“The way I see it,” Daniel says, “I’m your only ticket out of here if you’re in as bad a shape as I think you are. Tell me I’m wrong.”

Posada Remix (But with Geralt from the Books, and Jaskier from Netflix) by Descarada

Summary
I read the Witcher books, and Geralt is a sensitive boi about the whole mutant thing. Multiple times he mutters to himself about how THoSe PeoPLE don't think he has FeElings.
So I just really think he'd be charmed as hell by Netflix Jaskier. It would be big 'I've had him for a day and a half and if anything happened to him I'd kill everyone in this tavern and then myself' energy.
So I imagined what would happen if Book Geralt met Netflix Jaskier that day at that tavern in Posada. (Spoiler he loves him.)
