This is kind of a random question, but I thought about that while reading your story Variable Stars, more specifically that scene in which Alice decides not to kill Peter and Charlotte. If it had happened, how Jasper would've reacted? Or, in a canon version, how do you think he would react if Peter and Charlotte were killed (not by Alice but a nomad or something)?
Ooof, Anon, you woke up and chose violence. We'll start with Variable Stars.
So, in Variable Stars, Alice sees Peter and Charlotte and kills them quickly and moves on.
Jasper is extremely close to both of them in Variable Stars because he is alone - no wife. It's kind of a cocktail of soldiers in arms, paternal, and brotherly. Like an older siblings raising a much younger sibling. So when they stop visiting and communicating with him, this is scary. Jasper has always had Peter at his back and for Peter to vanish... he spends a lot of time trying to find them. Obviously he never does, and because of where Alice found them, no one else (Maria) knows what happened either.
That weighs on Jasper terribly. That they found themselves in a fight that they could not win. He hopes they died quickly and together. But because he cannot confirm their deaths, there's always a little piece of him that hopes that they're still out there. He's much quieter and more serious by the time Alice joins the family.
It's quite a few years later that Edward puts together Peter and Charlotte as some of the vampires that Alice killed during her Rebellion Years. He does end up telling her what she did, and Alice is broken that she did that to Jasper. She considers a visit to Volterra to have herself destroyed but Edward tells her that the last thing Jasper needs is to lose another of his people.
She does tell him, and it changes them. For mental health reasons, Jasper has to separate the idea of the Alice that killed Peter and Charlotte with his Alice. Is it healthy? No! Is it necessary for him to live his life? Yes. Their relationship is fundamentally changed, and very bittersweet; Alice spends the rest of her life essentially trying to keep Jasper as happy as she can to make up for her terrible mistake, and Jasper has to live with that constant cloud of self-loathing and regret that surrounds her.
In canon, oh boy. (Also, anon, if you want Charlotte and Peter and Jasper drama, can I recommend going to talk to @flowerslut? Maybe subscribe to her new fic Roots? It's insanity and is a fucking vision into the dynamic Jasper has with his people and his past. 11/10, A+, six seasons and a movie. But I digress.)
In canon, Jasper would be on the war path, and Alice with him. Jasper would hunt them to the ends of the earth and remind their killer why Jasper's reputation precedes them. Both Alice and Jasper have a violent streak, and even if the deaths weren't planned, the killer would regret ever touching Peter and Charlotte.
And then I think Jasper would grieve heavily, and probably seek out solitude for that grief; he'd definitely retreat from the family a little. Peter's friendship and loyalty shaped who he was and who he got to be so much that there would always be a hole where his brother was. That Jasper couldn't protect Peter or even save Charlotte for Peter would weigh very heavily on him. I can see the darkest point being Jasper resenting the Cullens because if he'd been with Peter and Charlotte they'd still be alive, and maybe even resenting Alice for not being able to see their deaths so he could have protected them.
Alice has no real reference point for the grief of death or strong relationships outside her immediate family that we're made aware of in canon, so I can see her struggling a little knowing how to support Jasper in that kind of grief at first, but ultimately just being present so he isn't constantly alone and brooding. I can also see her struggling with the void that Peter and Charlotte have left behind.
I can see her gently reminding Jasper that even if they weren't with the Cullens, everything falling in place so that Jasper could have protected Peter and Charlotte is pretty unlikely. And I think she'd observe the fact that she didn't see their deaths indicates it was just one of those terrible, unplanned moments; there was no grand plan to assassinate them, no grudges or agenda. Just a series of choices made in the moment.
She's gifted, not a god.
Ultimately, Jasper is no stranger to pain. He'd be a little sadder and a little quieter, and possibly cleave tighter to the Cullens because he's now without alternative allies. He'd be even more protective of Alice, but he'd keep going and keep Peter and Charlotte as a very, very sacred memory.

Players join the game and Geralt begins to see that the mess Dragfa is in is deeper then he could have ever imagined.
“I work alone.” Geralt said adding, “I have a contract which shall be paid upon completion no matter who makes the final blow. I am not doing this for the reward, I am doing it because I will be paid to do so. You can have whatever it is you wish.”
“Dangerous words, but now I am even more intrigued.” The man looked at him and eyed him up. “You are right, I do wish for the reward, but I am more interested in seeing the man myself, bringing him in if I can.”
“Do you know who he is? After all you asked a second question, and such I am owed the answer.” Geralt looked to him and the man grinned again.
“Oh, what fun you are, clever man.” He laughed. “Men like the one we seek are clever too. A name I do not have, for if I did, it would make this far easier, and I would know where to look. Any other information you likely have, he is a mage of some sort, he has been hidden from the eyes of the powers that be, and he has not been cruel to his victims, nor does he take pleasure from the murder he entreats them to. All of the girls have been drugged with Either, they do not know their deaths.”

Murder most foul!
For those who don't know Murder Most Foul is a fic where Sephiroth is Cloud's Soldier mentor and also the mentor from hell. Cloud hates him so much...he's decided to kill him and a shocking number of people agree that Cloud should get to try.
It's dark comedy. Sephiroth is never going to figure out Cloud is trying to kill him and it is highly doubtful that Cloud will ever actually succeed. Because I think that's hilarious.
Here's a snippet of chapter 3 so far:
"Him," Cloud said with a vague wave of his arm, "the stupid looking one with the stupid coat, and stupid hair, and stupidly long sword."
"Ohhh," Aerith said with more understanding, "that one." They stared at Sephiroth for a moment. He did not look back at them.
"He looks like an asshole," Aerith agreed.
"He is," Cloud said.
"So," Aerith asked, "how are you going to do it?"
"Hmm?" Cloud asked.
"You're killing him?" Aerith reminded him.
"Oh," Cloud scratched his chin, smearing the dirt there more, "Ma and I talked over some. I'm thinking maybe poison."
"Poison?" Aerith said, "I thought you tough guys were against all that."
"I...don't really care," Cloud said, "I just want him dead." Aerith nodded. Cloud couldn't read the look in her eyes. He decided later it was kind of terrifying but he was glad she was on his side.
"Well," Aerith said standing up, "I don't know much...but I've got a list of plants that are poisonous to humans."
That was pretty much all the motivation Cloud needed to ditch the clean up and escort civilians home.

Butcher & Blackbird (CBR16 #14)
The first book in the Ruinous Love Trilogy came to my attention thanks to my fellow Cannonballers. I feel like I went from knowing absolutely nothing about this book or its author to being flooded with information about it and somehow still managing to go into the reading experience with extraordinarily little spoiled for me (something I hope to accomplish with my own review). Malin’s review from…

Challenge #04111-K093: Consider This...
Could we have the trio meet up again and work together?
https://peakd.com/fiction/@internutter/challenge-03986-j334-outsourcing-horror -- Fighting Fit
The ones who hold their employees in stables with no beds. I've got them on my list. The ones who play psychotic games with any servant's heads. I've got them on my list, they never will be missed.
What continues to surprise me is the lists I receive.
It's disturbing for multiple reasons. One: the CRC knows about me. Two: They know where I am and what I'm doing. Three: They're letting me continue because I serve their purposes. Four: They know how to reach me when I'm not serving their purposes. Five: They know the kind of people I trust. I tolerate the disturbances. Barely.

A lucky break leads Geralt and Regis to their first confrontation with the murderers.
“Duck! Duck cover your ears, cover…” he didn’t have enough time to warn them. The ball of fire exploded. It exploded with enough force that Geralt felt one of his ear drums rupture and he was thrown down the steps. The sound of shattered and falling glass made it through the ringing in his ears as he pulled himself up and charged to the door. He hit it with all his weight, and it flew off the hinges. He heard a cry, a scream, then men’s voices.
“With me!” He shouted, and charged into the house, flying up the narrow stairs. The house was three stories tall, narrow, and absolutely cramped. He charged up one flight and heard someone sobbing.
“Leave her, we have been had!” Someone hissed, and Geralt felt the pulse of magic make his amulet burn hot. “Quickly, quickly, I can’t hold it…”
He reached the landing, and charged forwards into a room where there was a glow. He tore down the door and drew his sword.
Notes:
Starting in with the heavy stuff this chapter, both in terms of violence and in terms of sex. Remember, please read the mast list of trigger tags in the first chapter!
