Time and time again, Jaskier cried out for Geralt, begging the universe to tell him he needed help, dreaming about how the witcher would tear down the door and kill the mage that did this to him, how Geralt would cradle Jaskier's limp body and look down on him with sorrow, his golden eyes stinging as Jaskier's distant gaze met his own; maybe he would finally get an apology. Maybe Jaskier would forgive him. Hell, there's nothing in this damned world that would stop Jaskier from crawling his way back to the man who he, oh so, burdened with his presence. Some nights, Jaskier wondered if it was destiny. Maybe he was born to be broken. Maybe Jaskier's life's purpose was to relentlessly forgive everyone who had ever wronged him, no matter how horrendous the deed. Most of all, perhaps, he was destined to become a travelling troubadour in all versions of himself, all lifetimes converging into this single rotten truth. Of all lives he could have led, the only oneness between them was that he would meet Geralt of Rivia, the Butcher of Blaviken... his White Wolf. Truth be told, if it wasn't for Geralt, Jaskier wouldn't have ever endured such pain. If it wasn't for Geralt, Jaskier would be some nobody performer playing at backwater inns, making less than his worth in crowns and peddling for coin with his esteemed education, refusing to return to the courts of Lettenhove. If it wasn't for Geralt, Jaskier wouldn't know what trust and companionship are. If it wasn't for Geralt, Jaskier wouldn't be Jaskier; he wouldn't have written Toss a Coin, he wouldn't have travelled the Path, and Jaskier wouldn't have ever met half the people he presently knew and loved. But Jaskier would always forgive him, always run back to him, and always allow him an indefinite number of chances because Geralt was the defining feature in Jaskier's life; Geralt was his constant, his consistency. For all of Jaskier's adult life, it has always been Geralt. Jaskier's eyes were glassy and distant, almost indifferent to the crunch of bone and the searing pain in his head as his neck once again whipped to the side. He could no longer make out the words the mage had been saying. His head spun, and a rush filled his ears. Blood poured from his nose, filling his sinuses with the acrid stench of his own blood. It dribbled over his open lips and down his chin, spattering onto his already filth-ridden clothes as he panted labourously. With every intake of breath, Jaskier could feel his chest and throat gurgle and bubble. Where was he?

Hi! Hello!! I hope you are well, I was wondering if you could write something for Geralt? Like if the reader got injured or got like kidnapped or something (this is all very basic)...

However you like! I just like your writing!

Thank you darling! I apologize for taking so long to get it to you all. I've been having major writer's block. So I hope that you see this! Without further ado here is,

When things go wrong

Blood sweat and tears and screams have been the only thing you and Geralt have known for the past few hours or was it minutes? In all honesty it could have been days. But you couldn't tell your mind was too hazy due to the amount of the blood you lost. But let's start from the beginning, You and Geralt had been hired to take care of a striga.

The fight had lasted hours you both underestimated how powerful the striga was. Toward the end of the battle when you and Geralt had overpowered her sending it strate into the ground. You thought it had to be almost over there was already light pouring in through the windows. But all the precautions You And Geralt took weren't enough. The Striga shout up with a rowr and charged at you and Geralt. By the time Geralt got his sword at the ready, its claws were already buried into your chest. 

And that was the last coherent thing you remembered. Now all you could do was feel the pain. As well as someone calling out to you. Holding you in their arms.

When the striga leapt out at you the only thing that was running in Geralt's head was anger and worry. That anger resulted in him killing the striga instead of breaking the curse like you two originally agreed upon. Right as the strigas body hit the ground he sprinted to you. He placed you in his lap cradling you as if you were a small child. “Y/N, i need you to stay awake.” he tried to make his voice as soothing as possible just in case, but he cant think like that. He should think like that. 

Carefully Geralt picked you up. Applying pressure to your wound and carefully carrying you back to the inn ignoring prying eyes and praying to whatever is out there you'll be ok.

Geralt sat at your bedside watching your chest rise and fall. You've been out for two days almost three. Only waking up to scream your throat raw. Geralt watched as your body twitched. He stood up preparing himself to hold you down if you started to scream again. Thankfully this wasn't the case. 

Your eyes felt heavy and your throat felt as if someone had poured acid down your throat. There was an uncomfortable warmth around you. “Geralt?” your voice was horse but you could see that Geralt cracked a rare smile. 

“Shh, rest. I'll be here when you wake.” He whispered into your ear climbing into the bed and lying down next to you. He wrapped his arm around your shoulders and buried his head in your hair and whispered some comforting words. 

The boy still won't talk to me. He hasn't said five words since we left. Vesemir takes Lambert to Kaer Morhen

Diary/Journal

Geraskier whump based on a post from @whumpprentice - Geralt breaks his stoicism when Jask is unwell and Jaskier just immediately jumps to the assumption he's actively dying. He just has a cold... Probably.

(Please don't reblog my posts to non whump/illness/kink blogs, thank you!)

Looking for a long fic to dive into this Christmas?

hey y'all I always feel strange self promoting, but I'm about to finish the fourth fic in my Witcher college AU, and I am just feeling very sappy about it. These fics are so dear to me, even though they don't get nearly as many hits as my other long fics, so I just thought I'd take a second to tell you all about them.

It's a Geraskier college AU where Geralt is a rugby player and Jaskier is a music major. It's definitely whump, but there's a lot of fluff and general domesticity as well. If you're looking for a long series (223k with no plans of stopping any time soon), then I think you should check it out. I'd love to see you there<3

Say what you will about the witcher season 2 but all the "Yennefer took Jaskier in the divorce", "Geralt and Yennefer are a divorced couple rasing a kid and dating the same man", "geraskefer love triangle with an oblivious Jaskier in the middle" memes and fics were top tier

The Witcher s03e03: “[Your mother] loved you the best she could. To save you, she had to let you go.”—“This can’t have been the only choice.”

That half second of jaskier with eyeliner in the trailer changed me as a person.

Buttercups, Not Dandelions

Epilogue to Dear Fellow Traveller (But Tonight, I Still Dream Of You)

Buttercups are poison. Geralt knew their toxicological properties by heart: headache, dizziness, unconsciousness, urinary discomfort, and severe gastrointestinal distress. Do not eat. They bite back in the face of anger and betrayal.

Lovechild AU idea: I would like to suggest adding Vespula and Radovid into the found family mix! Vespula has the aunt vibe of "I could never be mad at you sweetie, have a cookie, anyway, whAT THE FUCK JASKIER." (I know Yen probably has that role but the kid is allowed to have cool aunts) and Radovid probably bonded with him while he and Jaskier were dating, like out of all the people his dad dated, he's the stepparent he liked the most. Anyway, I'm just hashing out ideas bc I love those two and want to see our sweet baby boy interact with them!

[MASTERPOST] Oh gosh...

The thing is, I DON'T TRUST RADOVID AT ALL. not yet at least. So if he exists in this AU... they're not having a good time.

Rage curls in Regis' veins, demanding he rush in and tear apart every single living thing in the abandoned ruin. But that is not an option, even if he were confident he could win the fight.  The past comes to haunt Regis
