    Summary

    Something was going on.

    Gabriel wasn’t entirely sure what that something was, only that there was definitely something going on, and that something centered around his two boys. Both of whom didn’t even seem to be trying to keep it a secret that they were hiding something from him. Yet they were doing a damn good job of making sure he didn’t find out what that secret was.

    When he finally found out what it was - well, it was nothing at all like he expected it to be.

    Summary

    Jaskier had known about dragons from the songs with their great, swirling eyes and tongues of fire, but he had not known. This was fire made flesh, precious metal given living form.

    So distracted was he by the magnificent creature, Jaskier barely noticed its rider dismount, so it was a shock when he stomped towards them, his snow-white hair half pulled back, half falling on his shoulders, eyes as gold as the sun.

    Summary

    Julian "Jaskier" Pankratz is a nineteen-year-old student at Cambridge University studying Politics and International Relations. He hates it, and he's at risk of being kicked out for poor academic performance. Failure would mean returning to his family home, and that's just not an option. He wants to travel the world singing about death and destiny; heroics and heartbreak. So he needs to pass. He takes an elective module in English Literature on love poetry, firstly because it'd piss his father off, but also because he's heard the professor has an interesting PhD student.

    A passing interest begins to transform into something a whole lot more, and Jaskier finds himself faced with hard truths about life, about the society in which he lives and about himself. Society glorifies heroes and the sacrifices they make. But what happens to them when they're no longer useful?

    Title is taken from the song: "If These Scars Could Speak" by Citizen Soldier.

    Summary

    “You the Captain? Vesemir something?”
    “I am,” says the Captain.
    “Jaskier,” says Geralt weakly. Lambert grins. This will be fun.
    “Hello Geralt, love, I’m with you in a second. First, I need to have a word with your supervisor.”
    The boy toy is even wearing nail polish. This is either going to go very wrong or very right. Next to him Geralt sighs.
    “You may guess what happened first thing this morning, my good sir.”
