  1. Summary

    This series is part of the Rewritten Years verse by Montalais and Silver.

    We work with a timeline of events based on the BBC show, Dumas's books and actual history. In this verse, everything up to the finale of The Musketeers Season 2 remains the same, but we are filling in many gaps and the third season of the show never happened. Milady stays in Paris, Ninon de Larroque returns to play a larger role, and next to those two, Athos and Aramis will be the focus of the story in the long run. Every beloved recurring character will get their fair share of love and attention, and a handful of added characters from history and other works will make appearances and perhaps stick around.

    This is a growing and ongoing project sprung from the desire to fill plotholes and give our favourite characters the development and growth that they deserve. Also, tons of silly jokes, random history facts, copious amounts of angst and mindless fluff. We hope you stick around.

    Summary

    Vedha rushes downstairs. "It's a bomb. Let's go," he says and hauls Vikram up by the arm. Vikram's wound bleeds and suddenly, the distance yawning before them feels like a chasm impossible to cross. They stumble through anyway and Vedha is determined to get them out–
    Vikram wrenches his arm away. "Go," he says simply. "I'm slowing you down."
    Vedha sucks in a breath and stares at the beauty of the soul he fell in love with.

    OR

    Vikram loses his girlfriend and by extension, his will to live. Solace comes from the most unexpected of places: the man he is supposed to have shot long ago.

    Summary

    How was he supposed to let go of Ram? If he could catch him and hold him fast, wouldn’t he? Or would he open his hand? The storm broke against Bheem’s ribs with nowhere to go and he absorbed its force. He would have to withstand it. He would fulfill his promise to Sita. He would lose Ram. It would not change anything.

    Summary

    Jaskier has zero intention of sharing the degrading experience of getting tortured. Ever. He’ll bury the memories and someday they’ll be as scabbed over as Caingorn was.

    Which had been completely, absolutely, fine. And the only reason that wound is bleeding a little now is because fucking Geralt came out of nowhere—after the most humiliating experience of his entire life—and reopened the fucking thing. But that’s fine because he’ll leave and return to the terror of his smuggling work and forget about Geralt all over again. There’s nothing hard drink and the constant danger of execution won’t get his mind off. Because there’s something therapeutic about fearing for one’s life that makes anything not of immediate concern go away.

    So yes, things were just fine before Geralt showed up.

    Two years post-Caingorn, Geralt rescues Jaskier from prison and sends him with Ciri to Kaer Morhen. However, Geralt suspects Jaskier is hiding serious trauma.
