- geralt of rivia/jaskier
- watch a while longer: "hmm, why? more bandits and monsters than when i left?" "no," geralt says. "jaskier's in heat."
- fever song: on the road to kaer morhen, jaskier takes ill.
- wrapped around your finger: "come here," geralt tells him. he nods at the ground between his feet. he pulls the scissors out.
- cure the soul: geralt didn't mean for jaskier to see him like this.
- the garden where all beauties be: jaskier gets a noseful of pollen in a mage's tower.
- effortless: geralt gets off quick and easy and often, and it's driving jaskier insane.
- with a conquering air: jaskier arrives at kaer morhen knowing his family gave him up without a second thought, and absolutely sure that the dreaded warlord of the north will value him even less than his own blood did.
- glow: given his usual choice of partners, jaskier doesn't really get to enjoy the afterglow with them. geralt pretends he doesn't enjoy the benefits of this.
- febrile: he is in love. he is in love. oh, he is in love in the way poets are in love — wholly, stupidly, all-consumingly, like a hunger that rises in him every time that damnable man lets a fraction of a smile past his mouth.
- bundle: (non-nsfw) jaskier is settling into kaer morhen, but he has a persistent problem: he's freezing in his room at night. unfortunately, he's also terrified of fire.
- stee(re)d: (non-nsfw) there's a reason mares lead herds.
- well-rounded: (non-nsfw) geralt is the exact opposite of an open book. luckily, his eyes say plenty.
- navigation: (non-nsfw) jaskier’s kaer morhen navigational skills are lacking, but his puppy eyes are top notch, which helps even things out.
- splash: (non-nsfw) jaskier wants to help geralt relax. geralt is not familiar with this concept even slightly. jaskier persists.
- grapevine: (non-nsfw) jaskier starts spreading rumors about witchers out of revenge. it somehow becomes for good.
- acquaintance: (non-nsfw) jaskier pretends not to know geralt. is it really his fault if geralt believes him?
- kiss me like you want to be loved: (non-nsfw) jaskier has developed a nasty habit of kissing geralt, and geralt cannot for the life of him figure out why.
- starving: and then they started taking the mutagens, fewer and fewer boys woke up and rose from the floor. no more touching.
- tender, like a soft new sapling: jaskier has always known he has a soulmate; a soulmate who is in pain a frankly concerning amount of the time.
- another dawn: “right, yes, after we deal with this mysterious hut deep in the woods. no problem. days and weeks and years aplenty after that."
- in the deep dark hills: when geralt is late returning from a hunt, jaskier’s the one who suffers for it. things get worse before they get better.
- can you help me unravel my latest mistake: “it’s just a soulmark,” geralt says, fist tightening. “it doesn’t mean anything.”
- the witcher soldier: “who the hell is jaskier?”
- i thought it ended: geralt’s been gone for not even an hour when jaskier feels the first familiar signs of an impending heat.
- a song of selfish hearts: geralt loses a chunk of his memories, meets an overly-friendly bard, and comes to the obvious conclusion: that somewhere along the way, he apparently lost his godsdamned mind and decided to take a human lover on the path with him.
- the price of a touch: the mutagens used to make boys into witchers leave poison in their skin. to touch a witcher is agony. to get too close to one is deadly. jaskier doesn't seem to care.
- five times jaskier thought he was a drunken thief: (non-nsfw) jaskier could admit to it; he was starting to develop a problem.
- companionship: (non-nsfw) in which ciri suspects, but cannot confirm.
- a blessing, a curse: for a while, jaskier doesn’t know he’s cursed.
- if you say it again: (non-nsfw) he’s not even sure if it’s specifically what was said or just the act of being spoken to like a person in a vulnerable moment.
- waiting for the next time i can get you close: “hungry boy,” jaskier muttered, his eyes cutting away. “spare me my livelihood, at least.”
- death and destiny: the thing about witchers, jaskier has found, is that the enhanced senses are very much enhanced.
- flowers for everyone: five flower crowns jaskier made for geralt and one he actually gave to him.
- like feeling no fear: like this, hands pressed into the ground by one of geralt’s, his fear is lukewarm, spiced with lust, a bright yellow.
- i was born to rest my head: (non-nsfw) after a dangerous encounter with a group of bandits, geralt realises how much jaskier means to him. it's terrifying. (but jaskier is there to help ease the fear).
- i feel it within me: (non-nsfw) geralt and jaskier go through a lot together, and geralt always reflects on how much he loves jaskier, until he accidentally reflects verbally.
- a matter of trust: (non-nsfw) 5 times jaskier takes care of geralt's wounds and 1 time geralt does the same for him.
- my witcher, my bard: (non-nsfw) 5 times geralt called jaskier "bard" (+1 time jaskier knew what he meant).
- ivy on the hill: "are you singing to roach?" geralt asks, leaning over the saddle horn. "i'm not hallucinating?"
- own your heart and soul, my lover: it took a long time to convince geralt that, no, she was not disgusted with him, and even longer until he would agree to fuck her in that state.
- luminescence: geralt of eivia, she of the storied blades and the luminous eyes and the frankly fantastic breasts, is both a great witcher and a good person. jaskier already knows she’s not interested, but apparently, the rest of his idiotic primal male hindbrain hasn’t got the memo.
- i'm still here, love: (non-nsfw) now, if only jaskier could convince geralt that admitting who he loves will only hurt the both of them.
- you'll be the death of me: (non-nsfw) jaskier gets cursed: either "the one he loves" returns his feelings, and kisses him, or he dies painfully. geralt just wants to know why jaskier won't tell him who he's in love with.
- all the words we'll never say: five kisses to build or destroy a friendship on, and one kiss that decides their fate.
- break, blow, burn: five things every witcher relies on, and one that's just for geralt.
- don't touch me, i'll shatter: geralt tries to push jaskier away. his attempts prove ineffective.
- the motionless eternity of earth: he doesn't finish, but he doesn't have to. jaskier understands perfectly well.
- iaomai: sometimes, the bard's touch makes geralt feel like something to be cherished.
- we sang and danced: in the aftermath of what is probably the worst night of jaskier's life, things start to change between him and geralt and grow into something much deeper.
- long past friendship: jaskier takes care of geralt, and then 'takes care' of him some more.
- mulberry wine: (non-nsfw) geralt and jaskier are welcomed to celebrate beltayne with the locals. it goes uncharacteristically well.
- blessed guidance: (non-nsfw) geralt picks up a magic item. he spends an inordinate amount of time panicking because nice things start happening to him.
- he holds him close: (non-nsfw) he was going to leave because one day, maybe, geralt wouldn’t be able to save him.
- the witcher wolf: (non-nsfw) jaskier stumbles upon a white wolf- literally.
- one ragged heartbeat: geralt and jaskier are stranded in a cave during a snowstorm.
- straddle the line: geralt hunts a wraith and things go just a little wrong, in the sexiest of ways.
- soft comforts: (non-nsfw) jaskier falls ill on the road. geralt's not good at this, but he tries.
- be safe, for me: (non-nsfw) geralt risks hunting a werewolf at night, too close to a full moon.
- you suffer alone, not anymore: (non-nsfw) there's much geralt is willing to put up with. no one ever prepared him for kindness.
- bottomless eyes, pointed teeth: (non-nsfw) geralt allows jaskier to watch him hunt.
- his touch: jaskier is an affectionate man. it drives geralt mad, but in more ways than he knows how to put into words.
- winter winds: (non-nsfw) jaskier can only imagine that his complaints of both rain and cold wouldn’t sit well with the witcher.
- that thunder in your lungs: "if I didn't know any better, i'd say you were following me," jaskier snarks.
- irreconcilable marks: geralt shows up with a scar on his face. jaskier is used to scars, but not quite like this.
- black sun blood: geralt can't help but smell jaskier, but he sure as hell can stop jaskier from seeing him while he's in the grip of a potion.
- as long as you were mine for a little while: and as long as they never talk about how he's in love with geralt, they're both happy with the arrangement, right? right.
- howling, hunting, harboring: jaskier is more than happy to help geralt work through the effects of his potions.
- atlas: hearing: (non nsfw) when jaskier comes along, the white wolf already knows to hide his freakish nature as best as he’s able.
- no better love: he’d not expected to be allowed a kiss, had not dared hope to be touched so tenderly in return for his service.
- ebb and flow: Like many of geralt’s other unusual or animalistic features, the knot on his dick is a byproduct of the additional experimentation done on him during witcher training.
- and you sure as hell can't lie to me now: someone slips jaskier a truth serum.
- shrug off the shroud: “have you heard?" she flashes a gossiper's secretive grin. "the white wolf’s gone mad.”
- crammed in with you: across the years, geralt and jaskier have needed to share a bed. then there was the one time they got a room with two beds instead.
- speak in tongues: “i'm going to let you up,” geralt says, and his breathing is ragged, his skin cold and clammy against jaskier's cheek, “and you're going to run.”
- love is a feedback loop: jaskier is a greedy brat and geralt reacts accordingly.
- faith in transience: a handful of contracts go sideways. recovering is easier with jaskier there.
- something in the air: it's a rotten love spell.
- gentle-sharp and strange: jaskier keeps patching geralt up, and asking him for help, and touching him, and geralt absolutely does not know what to do with all these feelings.
- potions and consequences: to say jaskier was annoyed would be an understatement.
- a curse, a blessing: in which jaskier is cursed, and geralt talks to himself.
- have you noticed i've been gone?: jaskier is a very good kisser, and almost kisses geralt often enough, which is a damn sight closer than most people get.
- i know that you would want it: the thing in question, of course, the metaphorical pork chop, the sacrificial lamb, is geralt of fucking rivia. or more specifically, his ass.
- better than the memory: so it’s absurd and quite shocking, really, when jaskier starts to get hard every time he can smell geralt of rivia’s sweat.
- our time to make amends: jaskier is barely coherent by the time geralt kicks open the door to the cabin and hauls him inside.
- i'll bloom for you: jaskier drinks from the wrong bottle. or is it exactly the right one?
- a hard curl of satisfaction: geralt was taught that a witcher is only good for one thing.
- honey, i'll be there for you: geralt has hurt jaskier, so many times, and all of the grief he has been ignoring finally catches up with him.
- leave me wanting more: it’s all he can do to laugh in breathless fucking agony, because geralt isn’t doing anything other than hump him like a horny dog.
- smells like you love me: today jaskier still smells of oranges and honey, but there’s something else underneath it that geralt can’t quite place.
- the definition of nice: “you’re always so mean to me,” jaskier said. “really?” geralt said, conversationally. “i think i’m uncommonly nice to you.”
- it ain't over 'til he sings: if jaskier keeps trying to make up a sonnet in his head about how well geralt fucks, nobody needs to know.
- straddle the line: witchers don't have refractory periods, and jaskier is keen to investigate.
- take my hand and let us fall: geralt hunts a wraith and things go just a little wrong, in the sexiest of ways.
- his soul like the sun: and yet, he still hasn't told jaskier he loves him--not in those words, anyway. geralt fixes this.
- lock & key: in which jaskier suggests a chastity device to prove himself a worthy travel companion, and of course, gives geralt the key.
- marshland trysts and tavern nights: the glint in the witcher’s eyes is so insanely teasing in a way jaskier would never be able to word properly into a ballad of cocks and kisses even if he tried.
- a ballad of hurt, a sonnet of comfort: “i do feel a bit exposed here, geralt,” jaskier says plaintively.
- front row praises: "if you’re just going to stand here ogling the witcher, maybe go and do it out of the way.”
- feel the burn: geralt gives jaskier beard burn.
- benefits: whenever jaskier's mouth isn't occupied, he talks.
