“Is it some kind of prank, do you think?” Jaskier asks, squinting at the noticeboard.
It’s littered with contracts, each more peculiar than the last. Missing people, haunted houses, someone convinced his sister is possessed because she’s acting strangely. The last is vague, giving no indication of what “strangely” even means. It would be weird for a sizable city like Novigrad, but it’s completely nonsensical in a village as small as Hillcrest, which is barely large enough to support an inn. The notices are all quite new, so normally Geralt would be tempted to write it off as someone being a menace. But the writing is different, the paper is different, all of it is different enough that it’s probably not one person.
As it turns out, there is no prank, leaving Geralt to try to fix things before whatever is wrong with Hillcrest consumes them all.

Summary:
"What woke him up was, unfortunately, business as usual as well.
Geralt was trashing on the ground, jaw tight enough Jaskier would’ve feared he’d break out his own teeth if he didn’t know better, choked gasps and muffled moans the only thing to show he had nightmares."
Jaskier has been traveling with Geralt for years by now and he learned how to deal with everything - long walks, cold nights, hard ground, bland meals, even witcher's nightmares. But even his patient finally runs out and the fallout will get bloody.
“Can I help?” Jaskier asked again, wiggling the bar of soap enticingly.

The color was stubborn, and the white suds quickly bled pink as they picked up the color, washing it out.
It was a slow process, and the only sounds were the water rushing by, the crickets rustling in the long grass, and the rhythmic whirr and squish of the slow circles Jaskier was drawing on Geralt’s scalp and through his long hair.
And the second piece for the @geraskierreversebang !! for the same amazing Fic, “the harder the rain (the sweeter the sun)” by the lovely @teamfreehoodies in which cute things happen! go read it, go, go, go !!!
“I think it’s time to go, witcher,” he muttered, sitting back up to look at Geralt.
It was dim, but not so dim he couldn’t see the halo of red spreading out from Geralt’s head, liberally coating his white hair.
At last i can share the first ( of two! ) contribution to the @geraskierreversebang. This has been finished back in mid October!
I got to work with the admirable @teamfreehoodies ,
her awe-inspiring Fic “the harder the rain (the sweeter the sun)” literally made me cry tears of joy!

Summary:
Geralt hated parties. Really, he hated anything that required social gatherings of more than a few people. Especially if he didn’t know those people. But Jaskier knew these people, and Jaskier gave him those puppy eyes that he didn’t want to admit he was absolutely weak for, so here he was.
