Rules: tell us the titles of all the WIPs you are currently working on right now and a little about them. Then tag five other writers.

@kimikocha tagged me in this and MARI THIS IS SO MANY. Just the BEE FICS ARE SO MANY.

Okay, I'm only going to talk about the ones that are like...real WIPs. Ones that I have confidence that they'll be posted to ao3 at some point within the year.

I only have two non-Witcher fanfic WIPs

Untitled Ted Lasso- Moe & Colin. Moe made Colin a scarf for the secret santa episode and there's NO fics with the two of them? Shut the fuck up. I'm going to rectify this

Untitled Leverage- An OT3 where Eliot is actually Professor Eliot Sinclair and he has two protective thieves watching over him. Also, Parker falls asleep listening to old cassette tapes of Eliot's "Great Teachings" lectures on art history

Witcher Fandom!

The Choice- this is already on ao3 (four chapters out of the endgame eleven)! Eskel and Geralt take kid!Lambert and raise him far away from Kaer Morhen. It's slow going but I really love it as a concept and I know exactly where I'm going with it.

Various Beekeepers- I'm not lying when I say I have five more beekeeper AUs with various pairings and storylines. I can't help myself.

Rivia Removals- Rose gave me the idea to continue a oneshot I had written for the modern setting fic where musician Jaskier accompanies wildlife ranger Geralt on his pest removal jobs. In short, Geralt accidentally starts an animal therapy business and that's how they meet/adopt Ciri (and Yen and Triss)

Everything You Wanted - this is a followup to a fic called Everything You Want by aleatory_fox. It is in no way a fix-it but more a continuation of what would have happened if Jaskier faked his own death to free Eskel from their arrangement...without telling Eskel. It's a story where there are no happy endings and everyone has to live with the choices they made and writing it has felt great because it's so different from what I normally dig into

Woolgathering- This is a s2 canon divergence where they're able to come together as a family and save Eskel, and as a result, Ciri warms up to her new situation far faster than anticipated and isn't at risk of being possessed. It's weird to write out that that's the plot only because most of the fic just revolves around Lambert and Ciri being stuck with one another as the rest of the Witchers fight to save Eskel

if you’re interested, i’d love to hear about your WIPs! @skyerana @leupagus @feedingmyinsomnia @atomictourists @entwife508

part 3 of my leverage witcher!au because I can’t resist myself.

featuring: hardison and eliot meeting dragon!parker for the first time. chaos ensues

part 1

part 2

- - - - -

Hardison giggled with unrestrained glee as the small dragon dashed between Eliot’s legs. The vial glowed brightly between its small, sharp teeth.

Eliot growled, “You gonna help me or are you gonna just stand there?”

“Looks like you have it under control man.” He snorted as the dragon skittered up a tree. A part of him wondered why it didn’t just take off and fly away, but he was enjoying the show too much to entertain the thought.

“Hey, get back here!” Eliot made a grab for the dragon but it just climbed higher, perching on a branch high enough above his head where it was just out of reach.

It peered down at them with slitted, bright green eyes. Hardison stared back at it as Eliot grumbled some more under his breath. He rolled his eyes and sighed, “Hey little guy, I don’t think you want that potion. I think the poison in it might taste bad to you.” Reasoning with a dragon. How much weirder could Hardison’s day get?

A distinctly feminine voice entered their heads as the dragon blinked at them, “It’s shiny. I like shiny things.”

Okay, Hardison could work with that. “What if I gave you some something else shiny?”

Her eyes gleamed and Hardison could swear he saw mischief in them. “Like what?”

“What do you want?”

“The swords could do.”

“The swords definitely will not do,” Eliot snapped. The dragon huffed smoke out of her nose at his tone.

“Eliot,” Hardison whispered, knowing the witcher could hear his lowered voice, “don’t antagonize the dragon that can fly away with your very expensive potion at any moment.”

Eliot pinched the bridge of his nose, “Not the swords- something else.”

She tilted her head, her slitted eyes squinting at the duo below her. “The brooch on the pommel?”

Hardison winced and frantically shook his head. Eliot grunted out a firm ‘no’.

“So definitely not the medallion then?”

“No.”

Hardison’s face lit up. “I have a lucky coin. You can have it if you take care of it and promise to give us the potion back.”

The dragon weighed her options. A coin was not much. After all, she had a hoard filled with riches already. But the bard’s coin had value, even if only to him. She loves valuable things. “Is it shiny?”

Hardison smiled, pulling it out of his pants pocket. He held it up so that the sunlight would catch the surface, making it gleam. “The shiniest.”

The dragon nodded her head in agreement before gliding off the branch and onto the ground between the two men. She gently put the vial down on the ground and extended a claws upwards. “Okay. Coin?”

Hardison glanced at Eliot and placed the coin in her waiting claws. As she inspected it, he picked up the vial and tossed it to Eliot.

“Dammit Hardison!” Eliot hissed. He caught the vial gracefully, of course. But it was expensive and Hardison should be the last person throwing things.

Hardison rolled his eyes and turned back towards the dragon who now grasped the coin securely in her right claws. “Thank you-” He realized he didn’t have a name to thank her by. “if I may ask, what is your name?”

The dragon hesitated for a moment, unsure if she should tell them. They were strangers, but neither of them were human and non-humans were generally less likely to want to harm her.

And they were nice to her.

Sure, the witcher was a little grouchy, but she did try to steal his potion after all. And the bard was nice and kind of funny.

“Parker. You can call me Parker.”

~~~ One Week of Chaos and Bonding Later ~~~

“She’s a troublemaker,” Eliot grumbled, eyeing Parker as she slept in her dragon form in the middle of the fire.

“She’s a delight,” Hardison grinned, “is what she is.”

“You just like her because she gives me a headache.”

Hardison winked, “Now why would I want that?”
