Prompt 104
Jaskier likes his flat. It's a nice one, all things considered, he believes. He just wishes there weren't so many spiders in the summer.
He doesn't care if they're "harmless", if they're "nice", if they keep away other bugs, they are freaky, and he wants them burned with a flamethrower before they even look at him and his home.
One frankly embarrassing morning, he screams at a particularly fast spider, and he apparently did so loud and bloodcurdling enough that it worried his neighbor. He opens the door to a very concerned man that CLEARLY descended from heaven itself to bless this earthly plane with just how hot he fucking is.
"I'm Geralt, from the next few doors over, is everything alright?"
"Y- yes, sorry, Didn't mean to worry anyone, so sorry, that's my bed- I mean bad- How long have you lived here? Have you always lived here? So close? I mean- There was a spider, see, and it was so fast, and it had so many disgusting little legs-"
Super-sexy-neighbor-man - Geralt, Jaskier's mind helpfully catches him up - chuckles a bit and nods. "Alright. I'm glad you're okay." And then just fucking WALKS AWAY?
Jaskier fans himself, and swoons against his door.
And then he spots the demon under the couch and he screeches again. Whoops.
"SORRY!"
Geralt comes home one day to find that one neighbor of his in the hall, the door to his flat wide open.
"Um- Are you alright?"
"No!"
The man shrieks at him, and points at his flat.
"There's a giant arachnid looming over my kitchen! I need someone to kill it!" The colorful man pleads, and Geralt sighs and walks into the flat.
Just as he thought. A common pest-eating spider that doesn't harm humans. He supposes they could be scary to someone afraid of bugs, though, and his neighbor seemed quite the fearful man.
Geralt gently scoops up the spider, walks past his neighbor, and deposits it outside. He comes back and proudly announced the 'terrifying giant arachnid' has been removed from the premises.
His neighbor squeals in delight and hugs him. "Oh thank you, Geralt! Thank you! Thankyouthankyouthankyou! My knight in shining armor!"
His neighbor blows him a kiss before walking back into his now-spiderless-flat and disappears as the door shuts.
Geralt hopes he isn't evil for hoping there'll be another spider he can remove for the beautiful man sometime soon.

How Black Butler characters would react to seeing a spider on their wall
(Yay! My first Black Butler post!)
I don't recommend reading if you're arachnophobic, especially the undertaker one 😭
Ciel
He wouldn't admit it but he'd be a bit scared
He'd instantly call Sebastian to come and get it
Sebastian
He'd usually have to deal with one when Ciel sees one in his room
Just gives it a wack
Sometimes grabs it with his hands and just squashes it with his fists
Is very calm while doing so
Meyrin
Would trip over in shock
Literally throws everything around her at it (and due to her having her glasses on she always misses)
She never thinks to take her glasses off for some reason
Eventually she has to get Sebastian or one of the other servants to fetch it
Finny
Thinks spiders are really cute
He'd never harm one at all! (At least not on purpose)
He'd either let it stay on the wall or catch it and put it back outside
He gets really upset when one of the other servants finds a spider and squashes it
He loves collecting all bugs (including spiders) in the garden and playing with them, there have been a few incidents where he's accidentally squashed one and he's felt horrible about it
Baldroy
Begins yelling uncontrollably
He then pulls out a blow torch and starts firing at the spider while continuing to yell uncontrollably
Sebastian gets really pissed at him for that because 1. He always makes annoying yelling noises 2. He always destroys the wall with fire
Grell
Very similar to Baldroy
Starts screaming uncontrollably about how disgusting spiders are
Then pulls out her death scythe and cuts the spider into tiny pieces
Usually makes a huge hole in the wall
And it usually happens on reaper property and gets in trouble with William and the council
Ronald
Is very frightened but a lot more chill than Grell
Mutters "oh my days, oh my days" under his breathe
Tries crushing it with an object rather than his own hands because he has an irrational fear of it crawling on him, crawling up to his ear, crawling inside and taking control of his brain
William
Acts like a normal person and just squishes it without issue
Doesn't have a fear of spiders but they sure do annoy him
Undertaker
He'd play with it
He'd just grab it with his bare hands, bring it to his desk and watch it squirm around
He thinks spiders are funny, their long legs are just funny to him
Since the funeral parlor is dusty like all the time and full of cobwebs he finds so many, at least twice a day
Once a full nest of spider eggs was hanging out under his desk and he didn't notice until they hatched and began crawling all over him

My own Drow Secret Satan 2022 picture, for @legionnaire-r ! Arachne was just a delightful character to draw, I even got to face my most feared enemy: green! The character was defined as a party animal, so going all in with the neons seemed fitting~
As always, it’s been a delight to organize the event (but there’s a whole lot of work left to do still!). I have some extra pics to post for the giveaway, stay tuned! <3

The amazing (arachnophobic) Spider-Bard! I don't think I've posted anything about them here yet, so the long and short of it is that they got bitten by an enchanted spider, but it’s the year [standard fantasy medieval time period] so they’re not web-slinging so much as scrambling around rooftops playing a penny flute and being a nuisance to the crown. They have a dozen different costume designs and a whole lot of unrequited feelings for Spider-Laird, because I gotta stay on brand!
DO NOT EDIT OR REPOST

Uh oh, the Out of the Abyss Crew is... happening.
Ekata found a sword, it's her GF now, we don't make the rules.
Pl'acE "Ace" Holdyr our beloved monk of little brain.
Il’lyaris considers his usual nickname to PROBABLY not be the right thing to go by in the underdark. A sensible young man.
Bart gets fucked up again. Now he changes colors to whatever he's just eaten and there's a LOT of weird mushrooms down there. Where does one get banana and coconut in the underdark? Wild magic surge giving you ingredients, baby (the coconut knocked out Ii'lyaris and the banana appeared in Althea's hand - one way to make the world's shittiest piña colada.)
Who left the warlock and the bard to do the fighter/paladin work?
