I finally posted my first work!!

Cold Whiteness & Warm Confessions

Rating: Teens & Up (with swear words)

Content Warning: discussion of coming out & homophobia in other countries

Fandom: The Witcher Netflix (but with Priscilla and Zoltan is entirely inspired by his game version)

Relationships: Geralt/Jaskier, mentioned Yennefer/Triss, past Geralt/Jaskier

Additional tags: mutual pining; and there was only one couch; love confession in argument; geralt & yen both realized they were homo & divorced but are still best friends

Summary: Jaskier has a huge crush on his neighbor Geralt, who picks him up a few time a week to drive to the shared workplace together. But what happens when the car malfunctions and they find themselves stranded in the middle of nowhere with no service?

thanks @lankygeralt for their feedback when discussing the idea for this work :) check out their works!! big rec

read on ao3 sneak peak below!

Despite his best efforts to stay warm and stylish, Jaskier felt as though the wine red coat was not the best nor the most terrible choice he could have made to wear over his teal suit with the violet tie. His flatmate Priscilla snorted when she saw him leave his room like that, but it was too late to go change now, because down the road he saw the black clar leaving the garage.

Gripping his bag’s handle a little more firmly, he mentally prepared himself to greet his neighbor and coworker with a warm smile, even if his nose felt like falling off soon. The snow had done quite a number on the road the past days, but luckily it had already melted a little to make the roads accessible and safe again. Jaskier remembered sliding down the pathway to the building he lived in, the ice sparkling in devillish mischief at him from below.

The SUV stopped in front of him, tires pressing down on the gray sludge. After deeply breathing in and out once more, Jaskier opened the door and smiled at the driver. “Good morning, Geralt.” After knocking his shoes against each other one after the other to shake off the snow, he sat on the passenger seat and placed his bag between his feet.

“G’morning,” the man next to him spoke, voice still raspy, presumably from having not spoken all night and morning. “Sorry for being a little late today, I hope you didn’t wait too long.” He paused. “The car made some noise when I started it, but I couldn’t find the problem. I’ll get it fixed tomorrow, just ignore the sounds.” Finally, he looked at his neighbor with his light brown eyes.

“Oh, I hope it’s nothing terrible,” Jaskier replied, blindly grabbing for the seat belt and securing himself with it. “Do you want me to pay up? Since you let me drive with you more often than not.” He had some money on the side for emergencies, but he could not refuse to help out Geralt financially, as it was more than generous of him to even take him to work 5 days a week and back on tuesdays and thursdays.

“Don’t worry, that’s not why I brought it up.” Geralt started the car back up, the motor’s protesting noise perceivable even to Jaskier’s grandma three streets away. The music came back to life, the ventilation’s stream blew softly against their skin and fought against the condensation besieging the windshield.

This Jaskier with this Geralt:

Goth Rockstar AU anyone?

Where a moody 19-year-old Jaskier becomes enamored with Geralt, 35, the frontman of deathmetal band "Rivia".

At first Jaskier blends into the crowd, but through the flashes of the strobelights Geralt locks onto those dewy eyes the size of moons, and he finds he can't look away.

Hi, I'm here again with a headcanon, scenario, one-shot something. I should really get a name for these things. Anyways, have some modern geraskier content set during the pandemic:

When the pandemic broke out, Jaskier had told himself he would focus on himself. He had put it off for way too long and now was the perfect time to do so, right?

Procrastinating was kind of his thing. And it took him one year into the health crisis, and one burn-out added to his list for him to finally make an official application to get time off work.

Apparently juggling his student job and pursuing a degree in sociology wasn't really the best combination, according to his therapist. When he met up with his physician, she gave him green light to take time off work and even suggested he take a sabbatical.

With no online classes to attend and no longer working in his local bookstore, Jaskier was forced to work on himself.

It was a harder challenge than he had anticipated. A lot harder.

Jaskier found himself lying in his bed more often than he was supposed to and ordering more take-out than his budget allowed. Sleeping in on the weekends turned into ignoring his alarm during the week, and eventually into not setting an alarm at all and waking up around noon.

He found himself ignoring everyone around him. So much to the point that going outside to buy some groceries had become too much. Suddenly, he had become awfully aware of the way he looked, how people perceived him, and the presence of others around him was suffocating.

At least he had found some comfort in creating art.

When he was younger he had always aspired to become a singer or an actor (in theatre specifically), but the wounds of his music teacher embarrassing him in front of the entire class were still too fresh. So he stayed away from music and rather focused on his drawing abilities and paintings.

His therapist told him that working with his hands and simply drawing whatever felt right could be cathartic. So, hey, staying up until the sun started shining outside because he was too focused on his painting was a therapist-approved coping method, right?

He still found it especially hard to put his art out there, but Triss, one of the only people who actually stayed by his side during the entire fiasco, had told him there were some amazing communities out there and suggested posting his Bloodborne fanart online. It was an old fandom and she was sure the bullies had long left the fandom.

And she was right. He was immediately met with loads of compliments and nice people messaging him, inviting him into their discord server for other Bloodborne fanartists.

It was nice. Comforting even to be able to socialize out of the comfort of his own home and have the option to leave whenever he wanted. Triss was a fan too. She told him he looked the best he had in a long time the next time they saw each other in person.

Life was bearable again, and he had made a couple of friends online over the span of the last couple of months. Some of them even invited them to their PlayStation party to engage in jolly cooperation in Bloodborne.

There was never a silent moment amongst them and Jaskier quickly became a regular to their daily gaming meet-ups.

A couple weeks in, Yennefer, the only one who managed to pull off an arcane build in the game, told them she recruited a new member of their party.

Geralt was a quiet person, but his build was flawless and he solo-ed the bosses with ease. Jaskier was amazed by his skill, and decided to message him outside of the party to ask how long he had been playing the game.

What started off as a casual talk, ended in them calling that same evening because they were so engaged in their conversation neither of them wanted to go to bed. Jaskier found himself drawn to the man's voice, and found great comfort in his presence. And he knew he had it bad when the following day he saw his phone light up with a message from Geralt.

They called again, and Geralt admitted he had been snooping through Jaskier's social media when he had gone to sleep. If anyone else had told him that, Jaskier would have been creeped out but instead, he found himself drawn to Geralt even more.

Geralt told him his art was the best he had seen and that it "really captured the bloodborne vibe". Jaskier was flattered already, but found his cheeks tinting pink when Geralt started following his tumblr and he realized that the Geralt he had been talking to was the well-known streamer under the name "thewhitewolf".

He was a fucking legend in the community. He held all the achievements, and records, and was known for being very critical of anything regarding the game. So for Geralt to compliment him, meant a whole lot.

"Are you still there?" Geralt sounded concerned while Jaskier was staring at his computer screen.

"Yeah." Jaskier shook his head. "I'm still here."

How was he supposed to act knowing that not only Geralt was basically a celebrity in nerd world, but he was fucking hot as hell too?

"You don't have to if you don't want to. It was just a suggestion since we've been talking a lot."

"No, no, no," Jaskier spluttered. "I just- fuck. I've been watching your videos a lot and I'm trying to process that, haha."

Turning on his camera had proven to be a challenge, but after Geralt's encouraging words, Jaskier managed to turn the front camera towards him and smiled at Geralt on his screen.

He had expected it to be awkward, and even though his cheeks were flushed the entire time while they talked, he enjoyed looking at Geralt while they talked. He enjoyed watching his stream as well, especially the face he made when he noticed Jaskier had joined the stream.

It was adorable, Jaskier thought.

The pandemic continued, and Jaskier found that the only thing he was looking forward to, was calling Geralt throughout the day. A bit pathetic in his opinion, but Triss thought it was cute. She even encouraged him to ask Geralt where he was from while they were on the phone.

Poland.

Fuck.

Jaskier realized he was crushing hard when he felt his stomach drop when Geralt told him that he was from a different continent. Triss saw it too, saw his face drop and his cheeks go pale.

She rubbed his back softly when tears rolled down his face once he hung up the phone.

He didn't even know if Geralt liked him, didn't even know if Geralt even liked men for that matter, but he had become so used to his presence that he found the idea of losing him because of the distance between them something that he couldn't deal with.

Triss told him he didn't have to worry, they would work it out. Even if it meant they would never meet.

But Jaskier couldn't live with that. So once the borders opened up, he called Geralt. He was in the middle of a stream, he knew that, hell he was watching his stream but he couldn't hold back his excitement.

During the months of spending time online, Geralt had also expressed his interest in meeting up once it was actually possible, but Jaskier still felt like the excitement was probably a bit one-sided.

Jaskier was ready to leave a message on Geralt's voice-mail but almost choked on his spit when he heard Geralt's voice sweetly greet him.

"Hi," Jaskier croaked out. He fidgeted with the hem of his shirt as he looked at the stream again. Geralt hadn't paused it. He was calling him in the middle of his broadcast with thousands of people watching. Fucking hell.

"What's up?" Geralt sounded concerned, he looked worried too as he was rocking back and forth on his gaming chair.

"I uhm- I'm sorry to interrupt your stream," he said.

"It's okay. Is something the matter?"

God, he was fucking perfect, wasn't he?

"Yes. Well... no, but yes," Jaskier laughed, smile stretching wider when he saw Geralt smile on screen. "Uhm. Flights in and outside of America are possible again. They just announced it."

"Really?"

Geralt's voice sounded calm, but Jaskier saw his face lit up on the stream. The chat was wondering what the call was about and even mentioned that he was probably calling his girlfriend. One chatter even mentioned they wished their boyfriend looked at them like that.

Jaskier's cheeks turned crimson and he chewed the inside of his cheek while he waited for Geralt to react.

"That's great," he said, accent thick in his voice. "You should come. If you want."

Jaskier immediately answered. "Yes. Yes, I will. Oh my God, I will."

He caught the first flight that left the country to Europe. It would be the first time he was leaving the States.

Triss told him to be safe, and to immediately call him once he landed. He had given Triss' number to Geralt in case of an emergency and that had definitely eased her nerves.

Jaskier wasn't sure what to expect. Should he hug Geralt when he came to pick him up from the airport? Should he go for a handshake because 'that's what bros do?'

It was too confusing.

He probably should have been honest to Geralt about his undying crush on him before taking the plane, but it was too late now.

"I've landed." Jaskier texts Geralt while he is waiting for his luggage to arrive.

He doesn't get a reply. Instead, he gets a notification on his phone that he doesn't have service here.

Great.

Amazing.

He's in a country where he can barely speak a word except for the few phrases Geralt has taught him over the span of their friendship, and he doesn't have any service.

Grumbling, and slightly nauseous, Jaskier goes through customs and steps outside. Geralt said he would meet him outside because it might be hard to recognize each other with their masks still on.

There is a part of him that is still expecting to be stood up, that Geralt is fake and not even a real person, but once he catches a glimpse of a tall white-haired figure his heart beat accelerates.

Geralt is even prettier in person, and Jaskier finds himself fighting back tears when he realizes it's in fact him. Geralt. The person he has been talking to for months, the one who helped him get through his slump and encouraged him to pursue his art career.

"Hey," Geralt says. His hair was half-up, and his smile would make anyone in a five-mile radius fall in love with him. And God, his scent. Geralt smells amazing, like pine trees.

It brings Jaskier an even bigger sense of comfort and he finds himself launching forward, body moving on its own and practically jumpings in Geralt's arms.

"Hi," he croaks out. Geralt is soft too, and warm. Oh so warm. And his touch is too much to handle. It's so careful when Geralt is stroking the back of Jaskier's neck. "Hi," Jaskier says again.

He's forced to look up when he feels a soft hand caressing his cheek and cupping his jaw.

Geralt doesn't say a word, and he doesn't need to. He simply kisses Jaskier's cheek and hums when Jaskier does the same.

The air is freezing around him, but Jaskier finds himself warmer than he has ever been. His cheeks burn when he connects his lips with Geralt's, and his fingers warm up against Geralt's cheeks.
