An Offer You Can’t Refuse Update

New chapter available here.

Teaser:

Geralt would be lying if he said he wasn’t anxious and eager to see Jaskier again.  Whatever had happened that night between dinner and the arachae attack had felt important.  Vital even.  His wolf hadn’t wanted to end the night so abruptly.  The man had agreed.

Now, he wasn’t sure what to expect from Jaskier or even himself the next time he saw him at Kaer Morhen.  Would he be allowed to approach?  To touch?  Or would Jaskier retreat against to teasing smirks and jagged defenses?

He’d been tempted to ask Lambert to give him an idea of Jaskier’s mood, but knew he’d never be able to live that down.  His brother would see through that in a heartbeat.  There was nothing for him to do, but go to the bar himself and test the waters.  

(And if he spent longer than usual choosing his clothes that night, that was no one’s business but himself).

As soon as he arrived, it wasn’t difficult to see the effect Voorhis’ death had on the wolves in the crowd.  Most of them lingered close to the other members of the pack, avoiding mingling with the other people in the room.  Even the humans were picking up on the strange atmosphere and clustered together in tight knit groups near the enforcers dressed like bouncers at the edges of the room.  The Kaer wolves were tense enough that he didn’t need to feel their emotions through the bonds to notice.  It made Geralt’s own wolf restless.

On stage, he heard the sounds of Jaskier warming up before beginning to check the tuning on his guitar.  As much as Geralt wanted to go over and speak to the other wolf, he knew that it was neither the time nor place for that.  So he ambled over to the bar and waited for Lambert to come over.

“Has there been any trouble?”

Lambert pursed his lips, setting a tray of clean glasses down behind the bar.  “Nothing I could do anything about—everyone is just fucking stressed.”

“I take it the news of Voorhis has spread?”

“Along with every sort of rumor you could imagine.”

[proheromidoriyashouto]

witcher modern au where witchers have to put those colorful claw caps over their toe nails so they don't tear their work boots, floors and carpets, and blankets up by walking or instinct based kneading and they all absolutely hate it.

its their version of humans not wanting to touch their eyes even for medical reasons. melitele forbid they need to trim a hangnail or treatment for archspore fungus under their nails.

they will Ignore The Problem. this infection is for the job. i have too many toes anyway. i will just buy news boots more often. i did not stub my toe on the coffee table and start to cry. i am a Powerful Mutant.

Jaskier is sneaking the caps on Geralt when he's in a post-hunt potions crashnap. Ciri gets Geralt to trim them during 'spa day' pretend play because he can't deny his precious daughter anything, but always escapes before she can even glance at the glue because its so smelly, so Jaskier takes his turn to strike in the wee morning hours. (these ofieri rugs were a gift from the prince, geralt! you animal!)

Aiden is a fastidious groomer and forces himself into a salon chair because the smell of neglect is especially foul for a witcher and getting ahead of problems makes for an easier existence, but he's also not a complete degenerate like some Cats--read: Gaetan.

Lambert "happily" goes along with Aiden because he wants to make a good impression, and he likes to think he is the smartest of his brothers which would make destroying things he pays money for in a gig economy monumentally stupid, but his inner wolf is howling with misery the songs of his people the entire time a stranger is putting their hands on his pawsfeet. Aiden knows how much of a brave face he's actually putting on for his sake so rewards Lambert accordingly at home. (they have so many in-tact kneading blankets the other Cats think Something Is Up when they poke around)

Eskel grits his teeth and does the work himself often enough he doesn't have to wear the nail caps. The glue stench is overwhelmingly bad even after its cured, he can't imagine how Geralt's twice-mutated nose handles it. (he doesn't know Geralt doesn't do it himself and has to be "dog medicine pill wrapped in cheese and ham"-ed about it until after Jaskier goes an a rant after a particular tiff they've had. Eskel never lets Pretty Boy live it down.) People already don't like his face, the last thing he needs is people assuming he's as much a beast as they think witchers are by neglecting basic hygiene and the state of one's home.

Vesemir is an old dog of a witcher living in his mountain keep. He doesn't bother with that city-slicker nonsense and walks around barefoot. He only wears boots for jobs which he doesn't do much anymore, and if they rip, well, he can blame a monster. The floors of the keep were built with hard stone they'd be pressed to scatch if they tried so whats it matter. Until an old flame, the dignified and ever as lovely Countess Mignole, buys a home at the base of the mountain and suddenly it matters so much to be presentable. It is difficult to be a charming old man when your feet smell of neglected archspore infection strongly enough a human can be offput by it and you don't have boots that might last a day walking through town with a woman on his arm. (the boys and Aiden have to hold him down as he fights like a dying bear while Jaskier and Eskel Do Something about his horrible old wolf paws.) in the end, Mignole finds the assorted colors of the nail caps very charming indeed. Vesemir complains about it for the rest of his days when she's visiting the grandchildren out of town.

If the WIP snippet ask is still open, I’d love to see what you have for Eskel & Fae or the Modern Werewolf Pack

Have some modern werewolves! They are confusing the hell out of Jaskier.

“Welcome to the neighborhood!” someone says, and Jaskier turns around hastily to see almost a dozen people clustered up on the sidewalk and grinning at him. “Um…thanks?” he says warily. “Need help getting your stuff into the house?” the spokesman, a broad-shouldered and very cheerful looking redhead, asks brightly. “I, um, could use a hand, sure,” Jaskier says, and then takes a startled step back as the little horde swarms his rented van. “Please be careful with the instruments!” “You mean I shouldn’t fling the - what the fuck even is this, this isn’t a guitar case?” one of the horde snipes. He’s shorter than the redhead, with a dark receding hairline and a wicked smirk. “It’s a lute,” Jaskier admits. “Who the fuck has a lute? What’s next, a fuckin’ psaltery?” “No, I don’t have one of those yet - how do you know what a psaltery is?” Jaskier blurts. “He spends so much time going down internet rabbit holes,” someone else says, giving Jaskier a bright, conspiratorial grin. “We keep telling him those are the wrong sorts of rabbits to chase.”

[northernolddragon]

The bear is a symbol of strength and protection. He was considered the master of the forests. In Slavic mythology, Leshy was transformed into him in order to protect his possessions and not allow harm to wildlife, despite the fact that he revered moderate hunting. Not for killing, for survival. All the more interesting are Eskel's associations as a bear, since he isn't devoid of either strength or ability to protect, and also has a good heart, given his visible interactions with animals, that managed to contemplate. I think, if Eskel was a werewolf, he would turn into a bear, regardless of the witcher school.

[0dde11eth]

Witchers don't understand filters.

Jaskier did the one where he has a spider on his head, Lambert smacked him so hard he ended up with a concussion.

Jaskier did the one where he turns into a werewolf, geralt almost cried because he thought jaskier was actually cursed.

Jaskier did the one where it's raining chicken legs. The heartbroken look on eskels face when he realized there was no actual chicken made jaskier feel so guilty he actually went and brought some for eskel.

Aiden sees the app for kittens where they tap at the screen to attack mice. He breaks the screen in his excitement.

Papa vesemir is still trying to figure out how to turn the damn device on.

Fanfic of a Fanfic?

I am obsessed with AvoidingAverage's fic An Offer You Can't Refuse. And want to expand on the werewolf mafia, lol so this is what i have so far for ideas.

"There's a hierarchy in this town,  it's not politicians or the rich at the top of the food chain, but the supernatural pulling the strings." Which follows -insert character here -a recently turned werewolf learning that they really didn't understand their city as well as they thought. (The idea was either Jaskier, my oc Kassandra or Ciri being the recently turned werewolf and pseudo following them. ) Kaer Morhen Pack Vesemir- retired werewolf hunter - Raised Geralt and Co Geralt - werewolf  pack alpha Eskel -werewolf second Lambert - werewolf youngest Coen - werewolf (Loosely aligned to Geralt ) (List of unnamed underlings werewolves) others

Aiden - rogue werewolf (Very loosely aligned to anyone) I just love the idea of Vesemir who probably killed Lamber's like abusive werewolf father after said father killed Lambert's human mother. Found a recently turned Eskel - who shouldn't have lived or turned after being mauled by a werewolf.

And Geralt -stealing from TeenWolf - a True Alpha. lol no But like maybe born under a prophesied moon. Born or bitten into a rare blood line maybe?

Let me know what you think,

Hi! This isn't a request or anything like that, but I just finished the entirety of Chamomile and Gwent and I am filled with warm, happy thoughts about Geralt and his wifey! And I was thinking, since Geralt can't have kids anyway and Reader is also hinted to be unable to have kids, what if a few years later during their travels (maybe they're traveling for the holidays) they pass by a village that has been terrorized by monster attacks (in my head it's a werewolf that's exhibiting bizarre behaviour but that's just me) and as they investigate, they happen upon a baby (in my head it's a little boy) that's barely a year old, face scratched up but otherwise unharmed. Reader insists on caring for it alongside the village's very old midwife-slash-healer while they try to figure out what's happening and why it's happening. The child has been left an orphan because of the most recent attack and the people of the village are either superstitious and think they baby's a demon or they think its cries attracted the monster in the first place so for everyone's safety it needs to go somewhere else where it's safer and ta da! Geralt and Wife™ end up with a baby😂 I don't think I could ever write (and publicly post) this idea so I thought I'd share it with you instead if that's okay with you. At this point I think I'm more in love with the Reader in your story than Geralt LOL and every time she just gives her bleeding heart to anyone who's suffering I give my computer screen heart-eyes haha but I also love the idea of Geralt with a little boy! His relationship with Ciri is so beautiful and heartwarming to me but I can't help imagining him with a boy too! A little Vesemir Jr maybe lol. What do you think about this idea? I hope it's okay that I'm picturing the characters in the way you've written them in my head for this! I hope this made sense since English is not my first language and sometimes I'm not sure how to translate it from my mother language to English.. I've been reading your works on Ao3 much more regularly than looking at your Tumblr account since I don't use this website so I'm not sure I understand how to navigate it in case you have rules or guidelines for this blog. Apologies if I've overstepped!

OKAY THIS IS SO SWEET.

First of all, I'm so thrilled that you enjoyed Chamomile and Gwent, and I genuinely love the idea of people fantasizing about Geralt and Reader's future together and what you think it might look like! The fact that you basically came up with a whole story for how they might pick up a kiddo during their travels? HELLO I'M SO FLATTERED 😭❤🙏

I'll be perfectly honest, I'm not much a kid-fic writer, but this scenario is so sweet that I had to write you a little drabble -- see below the cut!

It’s a peaceful winter morning at Corvo Bianco. You’re warm and cozy in your bed, drifting in and out of a dreamy doze with Geralt’s warm naked chest pressed to your back, when you hear the distinct sound of the front door creaking open.

The sound of the door doesn’t disturb you, though. What disturbs you is the loud and slightly-sarcastic voice that follows. “Yoo-hoo. Honey, we’re home.”

A second, deeper voice follows. “Shut the fuck up, Lambert. They might be sleeping.” 

“Not anymore,” Geralt groans, and you know why he’s disgruntled: the voices in the hall have roused the child who was, until moments ago, sleeping soundly in the cot beside the bed. 

He’s awake now, though — awake and starting to fuss. You throw back the blankets and sit up, but Geralt is quicker than you: the child is already in Geralt’s arms, his whimpering quieted to a happy coo as Geralt bounces him gently and pats his diapered bum. 

“See, there you go,” Geralt murmurs soothingly. “Nothing to fuss about. Not until you see Lambert and Eskel’s ugly mugs, at least.”

You tut playfully at him as you put on your dressing gown. “Don’t tell him that they’re ugly. All three of you are perfectly handsome, scars and all. All four of you, I should say,” you add, and you drop a kiss on the baby’s dark-haired head. 

You reach for the door, but before you can open it, Geralt touches your waist. “Hey,” he says. “Where’s mine?”

“Your what?” you say in surprise. 

“My kiss.”

You shoot him a grin, then pop up on your toes and plant a kiss on his bearded cheek. “Apologies, master witcher. How could I have forgotten?”

He smirks and gives your butt a tiny spank, and you grin cheekily at him before opening the bedroom door. “Welcome home, boys!” you say, and you hurry over to kiss Lambert on the cheek. 

“Hey,” he says, with a pat to your back. “So this is the brat, huh?”

Eskel scoffs. “Real nice, asshole.”

“Eskel, language,” you scold.

He grimaces. “Sorry, sorry. Gonna take some getting used to.”  

You smile and kiss him on the cheek before turning to Geralt. “May I?”

“Sure thing,” Geralt says. “All right, Ves, your mom’s got you now.”

Ves burbles happily and reaches for you, and Eskel raises his eyebrows. “Ves? That’s his name?”

“Yeah,” Geralt says. “Short for Vesemir.”

Lambert scoffs and folds his arms. “You guys are soft.” 

“I think it’s a great name,” Eskel says.

You smile at him, then rub Ves’s back. “These are your uncles, little wolf,” you say softly. “Uncle Esky and Uncle Lamby.”

Geralt chuckles and Eskel grins, but Lambert’s expression is surprisingly serious, and his golden witcher’s eyes are on the baby’s face. He studies Ves’s face for a moment, then sighs and shakes his head. “Damn. He got fucked up good, huh?”

He’s referring to the wicked-looking scars on the right side of Ves’s face — long and ragged scratch marks spanning from his forehead down to his jaw: the souvenirs of a terrible wound took Ves’s right eye, but spared his life. 

Eskel grunts. “Yeah, he’s gonna fit right in with us someday.”

“Yes, he will,” you say firmly. “He’s going to be brave and strong like you boys, and just as handsome as all of you. But hopefully with better manners than some,” you say sweetly to Lambert. 

He smirks. “Ah, fuck off.”

“Language,” Eskel and Geralt say.

You laugh, and Lambert’s smirk widens. He rubs the back of his neck, then gestures to you. “Ah, what the hell. I’ll hold the kid.”

You carefully hand him over to Lambert, who holds him rather awkwardly. Ves giggles and pats his face with enthusiasm, and Lambert wrinkles his nose. “Hey, buddy, watch who you’re throwing hands at.”

“He’s got the right idea, throwing hands at you,” Eskel says with a grin. “Here, hand him over.”

“I just got him,” Lambert complains. “Wait your turn.”

Ves burbles happily and tugs on Lambert’s witcher medal. Eskel edges closer and tickles his chubby neck, making him squeal with laughter, and Geralt sidles closer to you and drapes his arm around your shoulders. “Never thought I’d see these two making a fuss over a baby,” he murmurs. 

You smile and wrap your arms around his waist in a loose embrace. In truth, having a baby wasn’t something you had ever expected, either. But if your life with Geralt has proven anything, it’s that the best things can have a way of sneaking up on you when you least expect them.

An Offer You Can’t Refuse Update!

New chapter here.

Teaser:

He tried not to think about the shadows reflected in Jaskier’s eyes on the night everything had gone to shit.  It was the sort of madness that hinted at losing control entirely.  Somehow Jaskier hadn’t collapsed beneath the weight of that rage, continuing to prove his strange loyalty by hunting Hayes.  

Geralt forced himself to focus on something besides the mixture of guilt and longing roiling in his gut.  He didn’t want to think about the last words they’d said to one another or the accusations he’d made when Jaskier reached out.  His wolf told him that Jaskier was pack, but his human knew it wouldn’t be that simple.  If he offered Jaskier his bite, the other packs would see it as offering his support to the rogue and potentially even harboring the Fenris.  It would shatter any hope of peace.

“Yennefer cleared the bar,” Lambert said, walking over to meet them at the front of Kaer Morhen.  “There’s no sigils she can sense, but the cameras are all fucked.  Someone spray painted over the exterior lenses.”

“Could you smell anyone?” Eskel asked.

Lambert shrugged.  “Just ash and iron.”

Which meant it was Nilgaard.  Emhyr was growing bold in his preparations.

Geralt turned to Eskel.  “Tell Coen to lock down the compound,” he ordered.  “Nilfgaard is going to make a play tonight.  Keep all the pups together–they’re not ready for a full assault.”

“What about you?” Eskel asked.  “It’s a lot easier to take down a pack if their alpha is dead.”

The alpha rolled his shoulders in a shrug and met Lambert’s eyes in silent communication.  He gave a little smirk at his brothers.  “That’s why I have you two, isn’t it?”

There was a small moment where they looked at one another, tracking the changes of years spent fighting at each other’s side. Each face held new lines of strain and the smallest glint of silver beginning at the edges of each temple.  New scars and new fears hidden beneath broad shoulders and golden eyes.  Wordlessly, Lambert reached out to rest a hand on each shoulder, scenting the both and smiling faintly when his gesture was returned.  Whatever rifts had lingered between them felt insignificant compared to the brightness of the bonds burning in their chest, the fierce love shining in their eyes.

“If we go down, we go down together,” Eskel said and the other two nodded in agreement, cementing the words like a sacred oath.

[thudworm]

Posting this snippet from a WIP to hopefully motivate myself to keep working at it.

Aiden/Lambert, de-aged Lambert, ~500 words

Coen, the bastard, was the first through the door of the keep and up the staircase to the old classroom the sorceresses had commandeered for Ciri’s magic lessons. Only because he’d had a head start by virtue of being closer to the door.

Aiden had been hot on his heels, though, which meant he slammed straight into the back of him when he stopped dead in the damn doorway. 

“Who…? Where did…?” Coen didn’t seem to know which question he wanted to ask, while Aiden had no idea what was going on in the room. He shoved his way past Coen, and stopped short the same way once he could see.

“Lambert,” Aiden said without a trace of doubt, and the boy turned his glare over to Aiden. It was odd to be glared at by someone who was avoiding eye contact, but if anyone could manage it, it would be Lambert. 

“Don’t ask me how or why, but this is definitely Lambert.” Aiden would recognise him anywhere. 

The boy was absolutely swimming in the clothes of his adult self, leaving only his face visible, but that was more than enough for Aiden. He would know that face anywhere. 

He wasn’t sure if this younger Lambert had been put through the Trial of the Grasses yet, he couldn’t get a clear enough glimpse of his eye colour.  Lambert looked about the right age, it would be a fairly safe assumption for any other baby Witcher of the same apparent age, but on the rare occasions Lambert had spoken about his past he’d mentioned being almost too old by the time he’d been brought to Kaer Morhen. He definitely wasn’t old enough to have undergone the Trial of Dreams. 

The Lambert standing in front of him was missing most of the scars Aiden had come to know better than his own. The most notable absence was the set of claw marks over his right eye, from when a werewolf had gotten a lucky swipe in; but the much smaller scar on his forehead, above the left eyebrow, was still there. In fact, it was more noticeable since it hadn’t yet had years to fade. That nose was definitely a feature this Lambert needed to grow into; and even at this young age it had clearly been broken at least once. There was no mistaking that grumpy scowl as belonging to anyone else, even though it would currently be described most accurately as cute, rather than intimidating. The widow's peak hairline was much less pronounced, but the shape it would take in the future was still clear. Most shocking of all to Aiden was the eyes. The shape was still the same, but instead of the topaz he was so fond of, they were brown.

Aiden had no idea how long he spent staring at Lambert, cataloguing every feature, before he was jostled out of the doorway by Eskel, who had the bard close behind him. “We could hear the commotion from the library- what’s going on? And why the fuck do we have a mini-Lambert staring daggers at everyone?”

Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it! And then tag as many people as you have WIPs.

I...uh...have a lot of WIPs. I call it the Horde o' Plotbunnies for a very good reason. So this list does not include the AWAU WIPs (of which there are many). Also, I sort my WIPs by pairing (usually) or by 'verse, so any listing that has a number after it means there are that many WIPs with that pairing or within that 'verse's folder. If you want to ask for a snippet, give me a number within that range!

For obvious reasons, I will not be tagging this many people. What I will do instead is say that anyone who feels like playing should absolutely consider themselves tagged!

Can you tell us about Kuba? 🥺

i will do my best!!!!!!!!

so kuba is my witcher oc, he's a wolf witcher and cursed to be a werewolf after killing a priestess in the crossfire of fulfilling a contract. he's a huge guy and dealing with perpetual exhaustion. hes older than geralt and eskel but not by a whole lot, though he hasnt seen them since his curse -- he gets thrown in jail after being used as a scapegoat some decades later, which is where he meets ronin

i love drawing him he's kust this 7'2 big monstery guy. hes trans and a lot of his story in his younger yrs is woven into transitioning and being gnc

ive been obsessed with dc recently so i dont draw him as much but he is there in the back of my mind. i have a very extensive modern au hes also in where hes a goth monster hunter which is fun

hesmy silly (:
