Body and Soul
The door to the bedroom closes behind them, and Geralt immediately turns to Yen, standing there next to him, the golden candlelight reflecting in the hundreds of little gemstones on her elaborate gown.
He could stay like this forever.
Reach me
A loud thud rings out as the object hits the tiled floor of the public bathroom.
“I’d love that. When are you free?”
Nothing beside remains
Iorveth is alive, even if he doesn’t feel like it.
And Iorveth finally weeps.
The Remains of the Spirits
The ghost lamps are already burning, their neon light making the world seem eerie, a constant reminder of the horrors that lurk in the darkness of night.
“I think you’re the first one in a long time, if not ever, who came into close contact with a spirit and lived.”
Fire and Smoke
It is quiet where they are huddled behind the hedges framing Merse’s giant countryside estate, even the birds don’t make noise this time of night.
Isengrim’s grip around Iorveth’s waist grows a little tighter at the mention of Aelirenn, the legendary leader of the rebellion for elven freedom, and Iorveth knows Toruviel has, unintentionally, spoken out loud why Isengrim is here, fighting for them.
It took me a while to do this, so I have no idea who did or didn't do this already, please excuse any double-tags!
Tagging @gleamingsilence, @regis-favorite-raven, @beardedladyqueen, @jayofolympus and @windflowerofskellige, no pressure 💙

Regis has left to find and help Dettlaff after the Night of Long Fangs, and Geralt has gone into semi-retirement at Corvo Bianco. But despite the new peace, the Witcher finds something is missing.

To Put You At Ease - Teen and Up, Fluff, Wound Care, <1k
One benefit of semi-retirement at Corvo Bianco is that Regis is always right there to take care of any injuries Geralt sustains during contracts. His hands are much steadier experienced at mending wounds than Geralt's own, and his treatments are gentle. They always manage to soften whatever trouble Geralt picks up on the Path.
Finally Ever After - General Audiences, Book Fic, 1.7k
With the slaying of the last idr, the season of storms finally comes to an end for the Witcher. The silent listener is glad, hidden in the woods for none to know but his love.

As Regis listens, he begins to reminisce, and when Geralt returns to him and tells him of her, he smiles.

Not So Silent Graves - Teen and Up, Humour & Satire, 1.9k
Geralt and Regis planned to visit Fen Carn to reminisce, and perhaps indulge in the ancient cemetery's atmosphere. Instead, they come across the curious character who has made Regis' dilapidated cottage their new home - and strange business venture.
Parody chapter 48 of Thyme - General Audiences, Ko-fi Exclusive Parody, tw transphobia, <1k
An out of character interaction between Geralt, Eskel and Regis, filled with memes, wacky dialogue and overall silliness. Written in response to transphobic comments left on chapter 47 of "To Pluck Wild Mountain Thyme" regarding my inclusion of trans Eskel.

Humility and Sacrifice - General Audiences, Book Fic, First Kiss, <1k
Just hours ago, Geralt had realised the absurdity of feeling joy at the sight of a vampire. And now, as Regis walks him to the cave beneath Devil Mountain, Geralt realises another thing - that this vampire is far too fond of talking. Someone ought to shut him up.

The Knife in His Coffin - Explicit, Graphic Depictions of Violence, TW2 Spoilers, Completed, 53k
In just a few weeks, Vernon Roche has lost nearly everything that was dear to him. He's lost his king, lost his men, and is about to lose his country, too. The only thing driving him now is a burning desire for revenge, and he will cross mountains to get it.
With Ves left behind for safety, there is only Geralt by his side on the arduous journey to Loc Muinne - and they are about to realise that a lot can change in a week when it is filled with nothing but silence and each other's presence.

Much has happened since Geralt and Roche parted from one another at an inn outside Loc Muinne. Nilfgaard has invaded the North a third time, and much like the second, Geralt finds himself searching for Ciri once more.
While she occupies his thoughts greatly, there is another who haunts his mind – a man he remembers with a sense of longing and uncertainty. As he struggles with his mission, Geralt clings desperately to the hope that one day – be it in a year, five years, even ten – he and Vernon Roche will get the chance to tie up the loose ends surrounding them.
One-Man Force - Mature, Graphic Depictions of Violence, Roche POV, Completed, 7.2k
Vernon Roche is no stranger to abductions. Whether he himself orchestrates them, or ends up as a victim himself, he's experienced his fair share. But that's exactly why this one is so strange. Security seems lacking, and one by one, more oddities pile up. So when it presents itself, Vernon seizes the opportunity to get to the bottom of it all - and finds a letter from Geralt at the core.

But when Vernon Roche was on the brink of being found out, Geralt made a choice to become the very thing he had gone so far to dispute.
The Mark of A Stripe - General Audiences, <1k
After his own escapade with the Blue Stripes in Flotsam, Geralt begins to wonder about the tattoos the entire unit is alleged to have. He's seen at least one on all of them - all except the commander. And when the opportunity presents itself, Geralt can't help but ask.
Hanged Man's Salvation - Teen and Up, Scene Fix-It, Mild TW2 Spoilers, 1k
Flotsam is cruel not only to its citizens, but also those passing through and visiting its borders. Geralt is quick to jump into a brawl when he sees two of his closest friends with a noose around their necks, but after an unexpected loss, he finds himself in much the same position. Vernon Roche and Triss Merigold are the only ones who can save him now - and the sorceress seems frozen with fear.
Second Time's the Charm - Teen and Up, Witcher 3 Spoilers, <1k
The day of Radovid's assassination has come. The king is easily lured to the bridge that leads to Temple Isle, and everything goes smoothly… until Radovid decides he'd rather dispose of Geralt. Fortunately, as once before, Vernon Roche comes to the Witcher's rescue just in the nick of time.
A Taste of Eternity - General Audiences, Fluff, <1k

The Men that Wound Us - Mature, Hurt/Comfort, <1k
Both Ciri and Ves have experienced abuse at the hands of men throughout their lives, and they are both haunted by them. What begins as a sexual encounter turns into a violent flashback for Ves, but Ciri is there to comfort her through it.

Up On Orchard Hill - General Audiences, Fluff, <1k
It's a clear spring day, and Ciri and Ves are cuddled up among blooming plum trees overlooking Lake Vizima.
Grounding Motions - General Audiences, Fluff, Drabble
Sometimes, feeling each other's skin under their fingertips is soothing to Ciri and Ves, and sometimes that extends to all their scars - the things that are uniquely theirs.
The Intimacy of Being Vulnerable - General Audiences, Drabble
Enhancing each other's strengths in battle comes naturally once Ves and Ciri get to know each other, but it takes a special sort of bond to make known their weaknesses.

Somewhere in The Boudoirs of Novigrad - Geralt/Regis/Dandelion, Explicit, Smut, Based on Fanart 4.4k
A room is only ever as private as a host makes it - which, in Dandelion's case, means it is not private at all. Thus, Geralt and Regis find their intimate moments disturbed. How fortunate that they are willing to accommodate, and so and after being told to close the door, Dandelion finds himself on the much more pleasurable side of it.

Everything I Loved... - Explicit, Roche & Ves & The Blue Stripes, Graphic Depictions of Violence, Implied Rape/Non-Con, TW2 Spoilers, Completed, 34k
Vernon Roche had led the Blue Stripes for four years. Four long, all too short years. At the beginning of it all, he had recruited all of them and trained them, pulled them from the worst life had to give, and put a roof over their heads. He'd loved them dearly, and they had respected him in turn, treated him not merely as their commander, but as one of them. As a friend. He'd fought with them, bled with them, laughed with them, and even though only memories remained now, most of them were happy ones.

Geralt merely intended to spend a few quiet weeks at the Chameleon to catch up with his friends. But when the century old skull of a famous jester is stolen from Dandelion, he and Geralt set out to retrieve it, following a mysterious stranger across the Northern Realms, and even further.
Every man was destined to die. Every man, every women, every person was destined to die. It was only a matter of when and where. Vernon Roche had never had any delusions about the when. He was a soldier, and he knew he would die as one sooner rather than later. But he had always hoped that the where would be kinder to him. Somewhere within the borders of Temeria, on familiar soil. But Vernon Roche was destined to die many miles from home, on the Dol Blathanna - Mount Carbon line. And the when was now.
