Summary
When Jaskier looks over the witcher has his eyes shut tight, his whole body seeming pained. Jaskier realises he wants to soothe him, and the strength of feeling surprises him. He’s been too long without company.
“What happened?” the witcher says finally.
Jaskier blinks. “That’s quite a big question. I’m afraid you’ll need to be more specific.”
“With Nilfgaard,” the witcher clarifies, growling slightly. “It shouldn’t – it didn’t happen like this.”
In 1240, Jaskier the bard leaves Posada earlier than planned because of a devil in the mountains.
In 1263, three years after Nilfgaard conquers the north, Julian Pankratz, viscount of Lettenhove, hires a witcher and learns about the path his life should have taken.
This is not an AU.

Beautiful writing and strong storytelling. I love the unreliable narrator. It's an AU without really being an AU.

Summary
Booker travels to New Orleans after encountering Quynh, hoping to live out the rest of his exile in peace, but, unfortunately, someone has other plans for him.
Waking up in a cell, Booker sees a girl walk through a wall and wonders if perhaps the alcohol is causing hallucinations, or if he's being haunted by actual ghosts now instead of the metaphorical ones.
Inspired by a kink meme prompt here.

Summary
“Let’s go say goodbye.”
They look at each other, and TK perceives some inner part of him tilt a bit to one side, like a rebalancing of the stakes.
Perhaps this felt insurmountable because it is; a kind of pain that doesn't start nor end with him. Others feel this too.
They feel it too, and he's not alone.
And if he's able to realize that, at last, then maybe sorrow is not the only thing left standing.In which TK, Carlos and Owen make it to New York for Gwyneth's funeral.

Plotty case-fic with Hale family feels. It's ultimately Stiles-centric, but has lots of strong secondary characters. I'm particularly fond of the developing Peter Hale/Sheriff Stilinski.
