Summary
Where witchers are death, and Jaskier is a bard with a flare for the dramatic who keeps saying he wants to “just die” in any given situation.
To Jaskier, this is just a figure of speech. To Geralt, it is very definitely flirting.
When he decides to finally court the bard, it doesn't quite go as expected, and he finds out just why it is so easy for Jaskier to flirt with death.---000---
Geralt tilts his head to listen, the corner of his mouth twitching upward. The bard has been flirting with him for weeks now, exclaiming he could just die, all over Oxenfurt. At first, Geralt thought the man was being dramatic and didn’t know what he was doing, but no one is that theatrical.
“Little shit at it again?” Lambert grouses. “Just fucking court him already, pretty boy. Or I might just do it for you.”

Summary
When Geralt gifted Jaskier with pretty cockatrice feathers, the bard joked he'd appreciate all gifts from him, going so far as to say he'd be happy with a pickled eyeball.
Jaskier might have forgotten all about that request, but Geralt hasn't.

Summary
When Jaskier is young, he is sold to a slaver to solve his parents' problems with money.
He ends up at the royal court of Tretogor, a gold-collared bedslave, reserved for the royal line. Unlike the others, Jaskier doesn't settle into his fate, but rebels in what little ways he can.
It's no wonder then, that when the warlord of the north visits Tretogor for negotiations, Jaskier finds himself in the middle of it all.---000---
His mother's face is sad, and Julian wishes more than anything he could change that. She tucks a lock of his soft brown hair behind his ear.
“Remember how you said you wanted to help?”
Julian nods.
“There’s someone who… is coming to take a look at you. If you do well, we’ll get enough to pay the rent that’s still due. If we’re very lucky, we’ll get enough to buy back the farm.”
“What do I have to do?” Julian asks.
A tear tracks down his mother’s cheek. -

Summary
To a witcher, touch is almost never a good thing.
Touch means something or someone has gotten too close. Close enough to rend open the places where armour doesn’t protect the vulnerabilities underneath. Close enough to see the pulse where it beats just under the surface, to identify where to strike.
To Geralt, touch is everything beyond that, too. He craves the moments where touch doesn’t mean pain, damage, or potential death, but where it means safety and care. In a witcher’s life, those moments are far and few between.
Geralt bears it and watches the seasons change until he can take out that part of himself for winter, and let it breathe.He’s used to it, and he’s already endured it for decades when he meets Jaskier

Summary
Jaskier gets jumped by a bunch of bandits, who happen to be so dumb as to stab him with an ancient artifact. When he wakes up, the bandits are slaughtered, and Jaskier has a new hunger. He decides he can't and won't live like this, and searches out a witcher to kill him when he's unsuccessful himself. Of course......he finds Geralt, or does Geralt find him?
---000---
When Jaskier wakes up, the light is uncommonly bright to his eyes, and he has to squint against it. He’s not sure he remembers going to sleep the previous night, and briefly accuses himself of gulping down the bottle of Toussainti wine he’d filched from the inn, leaving a few crowns in its place.He rubs his hands over his face, and realises that as he does so, the strange metallic scent that hangs in the air gets stronger. When he pulls his hands away to look at his palms, he stiffens. There are red stains on the skin, some of it dried and flaking in the creases.
It’s very definitely not wine.

Thirty years later, with Jaskier hounded by an obsessed fan, Julian dreams of returning home, certain they’ll find their destiny there.
Geralt Wolfe, gun-for-hire on the verge of calling it quits, can’t find it in himself to refuse to watch over the beautiful but fractured soul whose life intersects his in ways neither of them are prepared for.

Summary
“Freak.”
Geralt didn't flinch, it was nothing he hadn't heard hurled at him before, usually followed by a derisive laugh from the speaker. The stranger in the gym might not have even meant for him to hear the word.
Even when people had heard about Witcher Syndrome, they seemed to forget about the more acute senses, like hearing. So he pretends that the insult had just been an aside that the man behind him had meant to keep to himself, and continues his workout.
~~~~~
Witcher Syndrome is a disorder that causes genetic mutations to occur to those who develop it. While some symptoms could almost be considered advantageous, others are clearly detrimental to those affected. As with any disability, there are those with prejudices against those that are “other” or “different”.
Geralt has spent most of his life learning to protect himself from being hurt by those who won’t understand that his differences don’t make him a freak.
But, it will take someone with quite a lot of zest for life and self-love, to show Geralt how to be okay with himself, and to remind him that at the end of the day, he is still only human.
Someone like Jaskier.
OR: What if superpowers were a disability?

Summary
Geralt isn't thrilled to visit Tretegor to negotiate a peace treaty with Redania's monarch. He fancies the business of slavery leaves a palpable odour over the whole place, but the Warlord of the North isn't going to turn down an opportunity to settle this conflict bloodlessly if it presents itself.
Returning to Redania stirs up more bad memories than the White Wolf bargained for however, and words like beast and butcher trail after him in whispers never spoken to his face. He's handling it about as well as he can when King Vizimir makes an unexpected move, sending a gold collared bedslave unannounced to Geralt's room, stinking of fear.
(Or: how I imagine Geralt's perspective from phiaura's fic The price of gold)

Summary
“I don’t dither.”
“You fucking well do. You do nothing but dither. You’re the grand ditherer of dither island in the land of dither. You-” he cut himself off, laughing ruefully at himself, “I’m the one dithering now. What I was trying to say was; Geralt, all guilt aside, without any of the extenuating circumstances, would you still, genuinely, want to fuck me?”
“No,” Geralt breathed, frowned, looked up at Jaskier, at the way his body tensed and his expression darkened, then grinned a wolfish grin, “I want you to fuck me."Bookmarked by phiaura
