    Summary

    The wound never healed, and somehow always bled. Yet he still produced far too much blood for even it to get rid of.

    The illness? Hyperemia. He produces too much blood.

    So when he finds out that vampires are actually real, Avid realizes he’s the perfect blood bank due to this mysterious illness.

    Its a win-win.

    Right?

    Summary

    At the time of his stillbirth, when it became clear that Nyx’s power alone could not wrench Zagreus from his fate, the gods of the House of Hades were approached by Chaos, and offered a boon: the prince lives a fruitful, kind eternity within the convergence of time, where even the deft weaving digits of the Fates cannot pluck him out from all that is, was, and will be. His fate is all fates, untethered to any one life. The Lord and Lady of the Underworld cannot find their son, but they can know he lives well.

    For as long as Thanatos can remember, it has felt as though the older chthonic gods are mourning someone they will not name. Work is a poor reprieve from the oppressive gloom. In a fit of emotion, Death wanders into the Far Reaches of the Underworld and is met with the warmth of a perfect summer's day.

     

    or: what if time and space were a weird primordial soup concealing Zagreus' defiance of Fate, and Thanatos kept finding him anyway?

    Summary

    Geralt stands there and looks at them and wants. Wants what they have with each other, mostly, but here, seeing them so content without him, he can also admit that he wants them — both of them. He can’t have either, of course; that much is obvious even to him. But that doesn’t matter to his traitorous heart, which wants and wants and wants, which yearns for things he cannot have.

    He doesn’t know how long he stands there, unable to tear himself away. He watches, and yearns, and only returns to his initial task when Yen snuffles and burrows further into Jaskier, his arms tightening around her even in sleep. It’s not his place to intrude.

    Or: Jaskier and Yennefer keep joking about being married. Except from the outside, it doesn’t look like they’re joking.
