    Summary

    Jaskier knows that, for the most part, he’s useless. A burden. He’s pretty and he sings well, but he doesn't have much more to offer Geralt on his Path. Medicine, though, is a decidedly useful skill. It’s one that does not require strength or fighting ability- just a sharp mind and hours of study. And oh, how Jaskier has studied.

    If only Vesemir would stop underestimating him.

    Part of a series, technically, but can absolutely be read as a standalone.

    Summary

    Geralt is no longer the Butcher of Blaviken. But when Jaskier is taken and tortured by soldiers from Nilfgaard, his tightly held morality frays at the edges. Joined by Lambert and Eskel, he sets out to rescue Jaskier and slaughter the men foolish enough to harm him. Nilfgaard was prepared for the rage of the White Wolf. They aren't prepared for his brothers.

    Because Jaskier belongs to all the wolves of Kaer Morhen, and they will raze kingdoms to keep him safe.

    Takes place after If I Starve, but can be read as a standalone. All relationships besides Geralt/Jaskier are platonic.

    Summary

    The witchers of Kaer Morhen have never been comfortable with gentle touches. It just isn't who they are. But when Geralt arrives to spend the winter with his brothers looking more relaxed than any of them have felt in years, all due to the affection of a human bard, Lambert and Eskel grow curious. They wonder what it would be like to be touched or held without fear.

    When Lambert runs into Jaskier in a small town in Redania, it's the safest he's felt in years. He and his brothers need touch and kindness more than they're willing to admit, and all Jaskier wants it to help , if only the witchers would let him.

    Geralt and Jaskier are together, all the other relationships are platonic with a good helping of touch-starvation on the side.

    Summary

    After Geralt blames Jaskier for everything, the bard leaves. He will not cry, he will not break down. He's much more than Geralt's useless companion and he will not let the Witcher ruin him. It's a stroke of luck that he meets another Witcher in Oxenfurt, and finally finds out what's it like to be openly called a friend.
    Then, they decide to spend winter in Kaer Morhen, and Coën isn't the only Witcher who goes there.
    It may be Geralt's only chance to apologize to his bard, his friend, his everything. 13 years is a long time to ponder one's mistakes and now, Geralt is desperate to fix what he broke.
