    Summary

    “This drink, the mage made it. It is going to make you a good boy,” she brushed back his hair, too long nails trailing along his cheek. “But you cannot tell anyone. You cannot tell a soul about this drink or this spell. You don’t talk about it. You keep it secret.”

     

    Julian opened his mouth to ask more and was hit by a pain he had never experienced. The boy cried out in pain and doubled over, arm wrapping around his screaming middle. His mother shushed him and pet at him until he was able to catch his breath.

     

    “See what happens to naughty little boys who don’t listen?” Her voice was sharp. “I told you not to say anything.”

    Jaskier was cursed with obedience as a child and has mostly learned to get by without others knowing. Geralt is not most people.

    Summary

    Grian needs to heal. But it's so hard when his past is a monster, lurking in the shadows and ready to pounce at the slightest indication of weakness, ready to tear him apart from the inside if he can't get his act together.

    And he just can’t seem to get his act together.

    OR

    Grian is very much not okay and dealing with a past that seems to follow him wherever he goes.

    Summary


    "Sheltered little thing, isn't he? Where do you think they scooped him up?"

    Pagla, Ignis tells himself as he sniffles. He's from Pagla, and he lives—Lived with his Gran at the Nox Flueret summer estate where they were protected and free. Well, as much as a Hybrid could be in this part of Eos.

    As a child, and a rare breed of Hybrid, Ignis runs afoul of an advantageous human Trader and thus his life is set on a path that leads him far from home and to the distant kingdom of Lucis.

    Meanwhile, a lonely Prince grapples with his place in the world, and what it means to take responsibility for a Kingdom where not all people who reside there are legally recognized as citizens.
