#Geraskier AO3
Text
A while ago I read a Game!Geralt/Jaskier fic that I loved so much because of their dynamic, since Game!Geralt is pretty different than Netflix!Geralt
So I was wondering…. Does anyone have an fic recs with that pairing?

When Daybreak Comes
Summary: After scoring numerous #1 hits and snagging prestigious awards, Jaskier Pankratz is the most successful musician of his generation. Everyone he knows repeatedly tells him that he's making history, and Jaskier believes them, lapping up all the praise and accolades from his critics and passionate fans. But after a series of scandals and rumours sully his reputation, the world holds its breath when Jaskier disappears from the public eye for years.
A story of love and heartbreak, of second chances and consequences, of choosing one's family, and ultimately, finding happiness in the right places, with the right people.
~
Chapter 16: I want you to burn my bridges down
(Read on AO3)
It’s nearly eight in the evening when the car turns on the last corner and in the distance, the outline of Jaskier’s house can be seen in the dim lights. After wrapping up the recording for All Comes Down, Jaskier and Chireadan immediately started brainstorming for the next song. They were so engrossed that they lost track of time until Jaskier’s bodyguard came to remind the musician of the time.
It took almost forty minutes to drive from the studio to Heath, and if it weren’t for Pablo, Jaskier would’ve been late, but thankfully they’re just on time. Pablo inputs the code to open the gate to Jaskier’s residence, and he glimpses the outline of a black Mercedes parked in the driveway.
Valdo’s already there.
For a second, Jaskier wonders how he got past the gate, but then remembers that his soon-to-be ex is still in the list of pre-approved guests allowed in his estate. Well, that’s about to change in ten minutes.
Jaskier Just got home. Valdo’s here. Wish me luck.
Jaskier quickly sends Geralt a text, the silver-haired man most likely busy since the pub he runs in Birmingham is full at this time of the night. In the past month or so that they started talking regularly, Jaskier only shared with Geralt the bare bones of his history with Valdo. It’s not that he doesn’t trust Geralt — he does, that’s the thing — but a part of Jaskier is uncomfortable with revealing too much of that side of him. That is to say, the side of him that sleeps around with just about anyone.
Oh, Jaskier is not stupid. He knows that Geralt must know about his history with being promiscuous. The Internet is filled with stories and proof (fabricated or not) about Jaskier’s dalliances. Not to mention that damn list of names of the people he’s slept with that was leaked on reddit. Still, it doesn’t mean he’s comfortable with talking about it. Even if it’s with someone as non-judgmental and wonderful as Geralt.
He’s broken from his thoughts when his phone vibrates in his hand.
Geralt Don’t need luck, just be careful.
Jaskier’s heart skips at the message, and he’s smiling as he types his response.
Jaskier Oooh are you worried about me? That’s so sweet, Geralt! But honestly, I will. Thank you.
Geralt Call me as soon as he leaves.
Jaskier I thought you said to call you at 10?
Geralt Changed my mind.
Jaskier’s heart melts, and he doesn’t care that it shows on his face.
Jaskier Ok, then. Talk to you in a bit.

I just love when a fanfic is so very soft that I have to stop reading every three rows and walk around my room for a bit with a hand on my heart while whispering "oh my god they glanced at eachother", because I get too overwhelmed with love and sweetness.

It's always funny when an author on ao3 that I subscribed to for a specific fandom starts posting fics for another fandom that I'm also in. Especially niche ones. Great minds think alike I guess.

sometimes, it dawns on me just how incredibly happy i am that fanfic exists as a medium. like, the amount of experiences had—excitement and thrills and tears and joy, and more, that writers of fic can give to so, so many people—is immeasurable; it's wonderful.
and just... what an amazing thought, you know? in a world where we are all struggling to get by, to recognise this beautiful thing we've created? knowing that we're all sharing in taking some sort of pleasure or lesson or comfort etc from reading and/or writing it?
i think that's really, really special.

"I'm sorry for the long comment on your fic-"
Please don't be?? I mean, you actually take the time to write paragraphs about something I wrote?? It's so cool?? I cry happy tears when I get comments like this on my fics??
Here's to the people who write long comments on fics, you're one of the reasons I keep writing 💫

Jaskier is teaching at Oxenfurt over the winter and for the whole season he's consistently ill. Not bedridden, but woozy, a little stuffy. Slightly sickly but not enough to be any form of concerning, except for maybe how long it's been going on. Occasionally the symptoms ramp up, or change slightly, but it never renders him unable to function.
THEN, near the end of the winter, someone catches one of the "new hires" sneaking poison into Jaskiers food!
They arrest them for, you know, trying to poison a fucking viscount, but the attempted assassin isn't scared or silent when brought in for interrogation. They're LIVID.
They have been trying ALL BLOODY WINTER to poison this one guy. They have tried every single fucking poison under the goddamn sun and this man has just had the SNIFFLES as a result. They couldn't resort to attacking because that would leave a trace, so they just kept trying poison after poison in higher and higher dosages while getting more and more frustrated that this one flouncy drama queen refuses to die!
They demand answers from Jaskier. They know they're going to be sentenced to death, so they at the very least want to know how the FUCK he did it.
And Jaskier has no idea. Not a clue. Nada. Nothing. Genuinely clueless as to how he's apparently immune to every single poison in an assassins arsenal.
And then, suddenly while trying to fall asleep, it hits him.
He's immune to every single poison in an assassins arsenal.
The only way to become immune to poison is via repeated exposure. Small doses. Working your way up decimal by decimal. He hasn't been doing that.
So who has? Who in his life has access to his food, alchemic knowledge, and poison readily on hand? Who in his life cares enough to spend years slowly making him immune to every single type of poison that an assassin could possibly give him? Who has taken the effort and the time to sew this extra layer of protection into his bones without even telling him they were doing it?
Oh Geralt you sneaky bastard. You do care.

There are 123 open ao3 tabs on my phone (yes, I counted) and it's such a mess, a chaos really. I cannot even bring myself to close them. Some are from a year or two ago and they are still there, on the off chance that I might read them. It's a pain, and I love it.

Jaskier graduated summa cumme laude from the most prestigious university on the continent. He acts like a superficial and disinterested bard all the time, but from time to time he acts like what he is, a master of the 7 liberal arts: Grammar, Rhetoric, Logic, Geometry, Arithmetic, Music and Astronomy.
Geralt doesn't notice this until Radovid shows up.
Every now and then Jaskier would blurt out a nonsensical comment that usually isn't meant for anyone, other than Geralt with his great ear, to hear.
The prince, hears everything that comes out of the bard's mouth and it is surprising when he laughs at whatever Jaskier said to the bard's amazement. Most amazingly, Radovid responds with another nonsensical comment that makes Jaskier laugh.
Geralt looks at them with a frown. Jaskier stops his laughter and eagerly asks the prince if he has read the philosopher he was apparently quoting. Radovid launches into a story of how his private tutor forced him to read the philosopher and he subsequently became enchanted with the man's writings and read his work for his own pleasure.
The more they travel, the more that happens. It turns out that the apparent nonsense Jaskier occasionally spouted is actually quotes, references and facts from philosophers, poets, astronomers, mathematicians, etc., that he was taught in college or read himself. Radovid responds to each of them with charm and delight, because apparently, Radovid has read them all as part of his royal education.
Geralt is not jealous. He isn't. No matter what Ciri and Yennefer say. He just doesn't like being out of the joke, doesn't like both of them acting like others aren't there and having to listen to their academic conversations when no one but them seems to care.
He just doesn't like that Jaskier smiles like never every time Radovid quotes an old poet of yesteryear that no one but them has read, as if it's an inside joke, because there should be no secrets in their group. He also doesn't like it when Jaskier laughs so loud because that can attract monsters. He hates that Jaskier sits next to Radovid every night talking about boring books because they are mere humans and if something attacks them, then both will be in danger and Geralt will only be able to save one (cof cof Jaskier), it's simple strategy. And absolutely not jealous because the bard now asks the prince for his advice when he writes songs, it's just that was something that used to de-stress Geralt and now he can't sleep well anymore. It's simple comfort.
But it all finally goes to shit when Jaskier turns down Geralt's invitation to spend the winter in Kaer Morhen because stupid Radovid invited him to his castle on the coast where he apparently has the best collection of maritime astronomy on the continent.
Geralt spends all that winter stuck in the library of Kaer Morhen reading anything that might interest Jaskier other than bestiaries. He tries very hard not to think about his bard and the prince huddled in front of the fire looking up at the stars until late at night drinking wine, getting closer and closer and closer until…
No. He won't allow it. When he sees Jaskier in the spring, he'll be sure to casually mention everything he read in winter, he'll make a fool of the prince when Geralt shows his bard the ancient books he brought him from the Wolf school library (not that Vesemir needs to know what came out of his precious library).
He'll graduate summa cumme laude from freaking Oxenfurt if it means getting his bard's attention again.
