    Summary

    Jaskier knows that he's being hunted. He knows, eventually, he will be captured. He knows too much about Geralt-- about Witchers in general-- to get caught without proper preparation. So he sets out, looking for Witchers to entrust with the things he values most. The things he can't let Nilfgaard get their hands on.

    It's in his nature to play tricks, to steal. And stealing from the White Flame is fun. Until his mind slowly decends into madness.

    Summary

    “Oh, fuck me,” the witcher says.

    Jaskier looks at the witcher, really looks, and for the first time takes note of the wolf’s head medallion sitting on his chest.

    “Oh fuck off,” Jaskier says, but it was more of a whine than anything. “Of course you’re Geralt’s brother, because destiny hates me or something. So which one are you? Lambert?”

    “You’re Geralt’s bard,” Lambert, it’s definitely Lambert says.

    Jaskier and Lambert are both nearing rock bottom when fate and a bar fight draws them together. Jaskier's angry and grieving after Geralt leaves him behind on a mountain. Lambert is struggling to walk the Path alone after the loss of Aiden. They're a match made in heaven - or in hell - and they'll drag each other out of the gutter by force.

    Summary

    Minerva McGonagall was a clever, no-nonsense type of woman.

    So, when Albus Dumbledore called her to a muggle home to transfer the infant that just defeated the dark lord to the care of the painfully average muggle family, she had several protests.

    “What do you suggest then, Minerva? What family could keep her safe from those who are angry with their lord’s defeat, while not allowing her to be placed on a pedestal? There are too many that would take advantage of such access to the girl-who-lived, as they are calling her.” Dumbledore asked distractedly.

    An idea occurred to her. An idea more reckless and Gryffindor-like than any stunt her students had pulled since the Marauders graduated.

    “I could do it,” she said, hardly believing the words were leaving her own mouth.

    Summary

    How old was he, even? He’d been thirty-five when he left Earth — would that make him seventy-five, or forty-six, or forty-two once he returned?

    Grace is returning to Earth, but what will that mean for him?

    Summary

    "There's no need to negotiate for your safety, Doctor Grace," Stratt says sternly. "I can assure you, after saving the world, you will be looked after."

    "Um, no," he says, shaking his head. "I'm not negotiating for my safety." He steps aside. “I’m negotiating for theirs.”

    They walk into the light of the open doorway; Simon, squinting hard against the vivid sun with his hand raised to shield his eyes and Rocky, who chirps a casual "Hello, humans!" with a wave.

    There’s a gasp; someone takes a step backward; one of the military personnel raises their rifle slightly before Stratt makes a sharp gesture for them to stand down.

    Grace doesn’t have eyes for them - he only looks at Stratt.

    And he decides, then and there, to replace the image of Stratt’s face sending him to his death, full of remorse and sadness, with the one in front of him: utter, complete disbelief.

    Grace thinks he'll treasure it forever.

    or: rocky and grace (+simon) go to earth instead of erid
