Summary
“Freak.”
Geralt doesn’t flinch.
It’s nothing he hasn't heard before, usually followed by a derisive laugh. The stranger might not have meant for him to hear the word, muttered as it is while Geralt's back is turned.
Even when people have heard about Witcher Syndrome and know what to expect from it, they seem to forget about the more acute senses. So, he pretends that the insult was just an unconscious aside that the man behind him meant to keep to himself, and tries to continue his workout.
———
Witcher Syndrome is a disorder that causes genetic mutations to occur to those who develop it. While some symptoms could almost be considered advantageous, others are clearly detrimental to those affected. As with any disability, there are those with prejudices against those that are “other” or “different”.
Geralt has spent most of his life learning to protect himself from those who won’t understand that his differences don’t make him a freak.But, it will take someone with quite a lot of zest for life and self-love, to show Geralt how to be okay with himself, and to remind him that he is still only human.
Someone like Jaskier.
OR: What if superpowers were a disability?

Piece Me Back Together, Dear Heart by aleatory_fox
Fandom: Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types
08 Dec 2020
Summary
Jaskier spends several years healing after Geralt turns him away on the mountainside, and his fragile heart is finally piecing itself back together. He keeps returning to Posada every year for reasons unknown even to him, but everything's fine. Who needs Geralt, right? The betrayal will fade eventually. The feelings too. The bitter, raw feelings... and then he runs into another Witcher in the same damn tavern. He even looks like Geralt. But instead of a walking bulwark of brooding silence, he meets a man with an open smile, kind eyes and a laugh that warms his very soul. Another few chance meetings and Jaskier finds himself inextricably drawn into Eskel's orbit. I mean, they have so much in common, including a deep, relentless yearning for a tall, brooding Witcher with hair the colour of moonlight.
All characters in this series are their game versions, with the exception of Jaskier who is an amalgamation of all with a heavy sprinkling of fanon lore. I have used "The Witcher - All Media Types", but with the exception of the jumping off point, this series uses lore from books, games, Gwent and TTRPG only.

Summary
Non-human races have been enslaved and forced into obedience through compulsion spells. The Wolf School Witchers have been enslaved for years until they are gifted to a young viscount. Lord Pankratz claims he doesn't approve of slavery, but he still keeps the Witchers for himself.
Can Eskel, Geralt, and Lambert trust this noble when he tells them he wants to treat them like equals? Or is he playing a game much more dangerous than they realize?

What You See Is Not The Dark by Chlorokin

Summary
Geralt is a god of death who really doesn't want to be worshipped by anyone.
Jaskier, of course, has other ideas.
~~~
“Geralt, forgive me, I…I should not have come here, shouldn’t have disturbed you. Please allow me to withdraw my prayer, no one needs to die,” Jaskier says shakily, and even though there is fear in the bard’s heart for his own life, largely there is regret and horror that he asked for Valdo’s death.
The demigod sighs softly, going down to one knee in front of the mortal, and very gently tilting Jaskier’s face to look up at him with a gloved finger under the bard’s chin. The witcher tries to make his stern countenance a gentler one and offers the man a small but sad smile as he murmurs in his gravelly baritone, “That’s not how this works, Jaskier. I can…set aside your request, as it were, but it doesn’t just go away. A prayer made must be answered.”
~~~
“And what you see is not the dark. It's just the gods upturning ink pots 'cause they know what you'll become,”

Summary
If Geralt believed in Hell, he was already in it. Simple as that.
