Thronebreaker is such good writing
it would have been easy to portray Meve as this awe-inducing force of nature, badass queen (and don't get me wrong, she is) but it's every time the narrator shows us her moments of weakness - a trembling arm, a shaky breath, tears being blinked back, questioning her decisions - that i truly lose it.
kuddos to the writers for turning me absolutely feral about this woman

my biggest achievement in thronebreaker is using the villem card to steal nilfgaards fire scorpion ballista and ever since then ive had the mental image of him just grabbing the whole thing and jumping to lyria’s side 😭😭

sanctuary
a keira/lambert pwp oneshot
summary
Encouraged by Geralt to seek sanctuary from the witch hunters at Kaer Morhen, Keira Metz ends up with only Lambert for company.
excerpt
“You're a cheery one,” says Keira, and he realizes she's read his thoughts and feels cold with it.
“If you poke around in there, we're not doing this,” he growls, and she shushes him, which only gets his ire up even more. She rises to her knees and catches an arm around his waist before he can shuffle away.
“As you wish. I won't peek, I promise,” she says. “Your thoughts are a bore anyhow.”
She touches her lips to his jaw and fits both hands to his hips, the teasing scrape of her long nails sending a shiver through him. He lets the little sting drive the last hesitance from him.
He's had a shit go of it lately. He deserves this. A moment of uncomplicated pleasure, even if it is with some witch from the swamps who probably fucked his brother first.

A quick Reynard/Gascon drabble-and-a-half, slightly NSFW below the cut:
“We should have done this a long time ago.” 
Gascon’s skin is soft against his, warm and damp with sweat. 
“Back when we hated each other?” 
“I never hated you.” 
“Oh,” Reynard clears his throat, “I, uh, never hated you either.” 
A weight lifts from his chest as Gascon raises his head. 
“Fuck me, Reynard, comin’ from you that’s practically a marriage proposal.” 
“Never was th’ marriage sort.” 
“Not even if a certain queen of Lyria and Rivia asked very nicely?” 
He clutches Gascon’s hand, stopping it in its steady trek down his stomach towards his hips.
“An absurd notion. I’m… below her station. Not worthy of it.”
Propping himself up on an elbow, Gascon leans in to kiss him. His thumb finds the thin scar over Reynard’s left cheekbone and strokes it. 
“Never thought I’d go for someone like you,” Gascon breathes against his lips. 
“Like-” 
“-A fucking idiot.”

I wrote a short "choose your own adventure" - fic if someone wants to relive making decisions in Thronebreaker!
rating T
no pairing (though Reynard is still smitten with Meve 🥰)
one path is roughly 4.000 words long
all chapters together ~ 10.000 words
summary :
Meve's army has just crossed the border into Rivia. Finally in their homeland, they celebrate with a small village freed of nilfgaardian forces the return of Queen Meve, until something terrible happens and Meve has to decide how to handle the situation.

Chapters: 3/6 Fandom: Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales (Video Game), Wiedźmin | The Witcher (Video Game) Rating: Mature Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Gascon Brossard & Reynard Odo Characters: Gascon Brossard, Meve (The Witcher), Reynard Odo, Original Characters Additional Tags: Third Northern War, Post-Game(s), Post-Canon, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Iron Falcons, Mercenaries, Epistolary, Other Additional Tags to Be Added, Origin Story, background Meve/Reynard, Canon-Typical Violence Series: Part 2 of Love and Wine Summary:
Gascon didn’t like the falcons, but he felt sorry for them. Everyone told him that the birds didn’t mind, that they liked being trained and kept for hunting, that the hoods kept them calm and stopped them hurting themselves. But he couldn’t help feeling that if he had a bird’s wings, he’d much rather be taking to the skies, not stuck in the dusty old mews, bound to a perch, sitting in the dark.
As peace reigns in Lyria after the Second Northern War, Gascon feels the need to stretch his wings and soar beyond the confines of Meve's court and the gilded cage of his duchy. But Nilfgaard will not lick its wounds for long - and when the armies of the north and south collide once more, he must decide what's worth fighting for.
Part of the Love & Wine series, but can be read as a stand-alone
we’re back it’s getting POLITICAL, BABY

this is not a normal drabble, but a drunken drabble, because it's exactly 111 words long
Reynard falling to his knees was nearly as shocking as his betrayal. Never before could Meve have imagined him begging, which showed how little she knew him. Pushing her pain aside, anger was free to unsheath her sword and hold its trembling edge near his neck.
Slowly, wet eyes blinking, he turned his head and pressed his lips against the steel as if he kissed his liege's offered hand in submission.
Shunning the gesture, she flinched back. His sharp inhale told her what she'd done, even before the trickle of blood ran down his chin.
"Take him away, 'fore I shed more."
Though sounding like a warning, it was a plea.

Now I'm imagining a continuity where post-war Reynard semi-retires to be the queen's trophy prince-consort and he gives ye olde ted talks about eclectic military strategy when you have no resources and are in a gross swamp.
And the only two people who are awake at the end to ask questions at the Q&A are Roche (who is furiously scribbling notes) and Gascon ('wow who's the guy who came up with half of that genius military strategy? he sounds realllyy handsome and clever and has an eight-pack i bet')

I was surprised to learn reynard actually is in the books because my memory for rando npcs is usually very good, so I reread the last bit in baptism of fire and listen.
truly inspired of cdpr to look at a guy whose only description was "wears purple cloak and is very defensive of and praises his queen" and went "OK no purple cloak but that man? pathetic simp of all time. that milf is his sole reason for breathing" like they were hand-crafting that old man in a lab just for me.
