    Summary

    He pictures the funeral sometimes.

    He pictures someone he doesn’t know saying Viktor’s name wrong. He pictures screaming in public. He pictures stealing the ashes and keeping them in a protein powder container because it’s the only vessel big enough. He pictures lying in those ashes like a widow bird. He pictures baking the ashes into bread and feeding them to pigeons in the park.

    He pictures swallowing them himself.

     

    Or: When Viktor chooses a quiet death, Jayce learns how to love him to the edge of the end and carry what’s left through the sad art of letting go.

    Summary

    “Wyll let it slide. Because he’s seen a patient’s face crumple after being unnecessarily snapped at. They forget all about it within an hour.
    On the other hand, he’s seen bed sores: tunnels into the black void of body ringed by brackish pus, and bright red inflammation…

    He’s not going to rat on Astarion just for a bubbly, golden-hearted 22 year old to come choke his patient on applesauce instead.

    But that doesn’t mean he has to like him.”

    (Passionate nursing assistant Wyll Ravengard goes from resenting his competent but cantankerous coworker to having the strangest fantasies about him. Meanwhile, Ulder asks Wyll to take care of his stepmother Mizora following her elective hip replacement, unaware
    that she sexually abused Wyll in the past.)

    Summary

    In a misguided effort to fight sexism, Sirius discovers he’s really, really into wearing the girls uniform. What follows is a disastrously oblivious Remus trying to protect his friends, Sirius’ introduction into a world more magical than his own (being trans!), and Marlene McKinnon growing increasingly annoyed with authority.

    A character study of Sirius’ fucked up gender, his relationship with his family, his body, Remus, James, and Marlene- disguised as a getting together fic.

    Summary

    Arthur swallows betrayal, feeling like bile in his throat and settles on something shorter. With a wave of his hand, he dismisses John's poor attempt at an explanation.
    "I ain't mad anymore."

    John knows when Arthur is lying. He knows.

    "Sure don't feel like it. But I'll take your word for it." John clears his throat weakly, stepping away.

    A little look into the Van der Linde brother's relationship.

    Summary

    "Hello, Julian," Yennefer says coolly. "Listen carefully. We are only having this conversation because it’d make Geralt happy and I'm the best wife in the fucking world. You and I should have sex."

    Jaskier says, "I'm going to need you to elaborate."

    Or: Geralt's biggest fantasy is to watch someone else fuck his wife. What kind of best friend would Jaskier be if he didn't lend a hand?

    Summary

    Brienne has been out since she was a teenager. By the time she went off to college she’d been doing the whole openly trans thing for years, so it’s not uncommon for people to come and talk to her like she’s got everything all figured out.

    She’s never had anyone pass out and nearly drown in the process of coming out to her though.

    Jaime is the first person to do that.

    Alternatively: Brienne and Jaime slowly and gently figure things out.

    Summary

    '“I love you,” Viktor says, breaking Jayce away from his thoughts. “I’m sorry.”

    It’s probably the last time Jayce will hear those words coming from him. His head hurts, the ball in his throat growing impossibly bigger.

    “I love you too,” Jayce chokes out. “I understand. I’m sorry too.”

    Summary

    That Tuesday evening, the world came back into his life in the form of half a brick through his kitchen window. Gandalf is part of an ancient order of immortal beings sent to earth to prevent interference by certain malevolent forces that ought not to be there. He has bigger problems to deal with than troubled teenagers with a habit of breaking things when they're stressed. He certainly doesn't need to take another child under his wing. Or, Gandalf adopts Pippin.

    Summary

    "It’s a fucking shed in our kitchen,” Geralt said. “Everyone else who answered the ad took one look at it and left.”

    “Yeah, that worries me,” said Yen. “What sort of a person would actually want to live in that thing? What if he’s some kind of weirdo?”

    “Should have thought of that before renting it out."

    Yennefer and Geralt have been living together for ten years, madly in love with each other & both unwilling to make the first move. Strapped for cash, they do the only logical thing; install a garden shed in their kitchen and rent it out to Jaskier, a 24-year old guitarist in a folk rock band and freewheeling disaster. They don't expect to catch feelings. They don't expect their new flatmate to overturn their carefully constructed, platonic domestic bliss...

    Summary

    An otherwise ordinary encounter with bandits on the road turns into something more when Geralt begins acting strangely, not sleeping and showing up from hunts with injuries he hasn't dressed. Jaskier knows something is very wrong, but he can't get Geralt to talk about it--or much of anything else.

    Summary

    It's senior year, and Geralt has realized that he's in love with his best friend. Sadly, Jaskier is Absolutely Straight, No Doubt About It, and so Geralt decides that he will never, ever confess his feelings. But then he discovers Jaskier's fleshlight, inadvertently altering the course of their friendship forever.

    Or maybe not. After all, it's not gay if you say "no homo".

    Summary

    Over the years, their meetings change from Geralt buying them two pints of shitty ale in the back of a slightly ominous pub, to Jaskier ordering a hog roast, and fine wine to a plush booth, if not a private room. As the money in his pockets turns from copper to gold, his copper hair fades to silver.

    Geralt doesn't age, Jaskier does, Geralt's kinda into it.

    Summary

    “Thank you,” he murmurs to Geralt as they sit together on his couch, both nursing hot toddies (Geralt’s praise for Jaskier’s heavy pour was so effusive it made him blush like he hasn’t since he was a teenager and Victoria Stael had him by the wrist at a Grammys afterparty) and watching the girls play with the LEGO set Jaskier got Essi for Chanukah. It’s for the gifts but it’s also for everything else.

    “The wine is really more for me than for you, Jas,” Geralt smirks, but he softens quickly, his gaze warm, nudging Jaskier with his shoulder, understanding what Jaskier was trying to say without needing to be told. “But no problem.”

    That’s what Jaskier likes about Geralt. With him, some things can be left unsaid. Jaskier never thought he’d take such comfort in silence, wordsmith that he is and has always been, but with Geralt, he is learning how to sit with the quiet, how to speak without sound.

    Summary

    See notes at the end for additional tags that WILL contain spoilers.

    Days and nights blended together, not helped by the darkened sky and heavy snowfall. Geralt passed them in silence. For a while Jaskier clung to Geralt’s every breath, every movement, waiting for the confrontation. Waiting for goodbye. But it never came. They settled into some sort of horrid pattern. Jaskier would wait quietly for Geralt to come home and when he did Jaskier would try desperately to connect in some way, any way, and eventually, Geralt would fall asleep. This morning he had told himself that tonight was going to be different.

    Modern AU about insomnia, relationships, mental illness, and love.
