Summary
Modern AU/Songfic based on West Virginia by The Front Bottoms.
Geralt knows that he's not the best at communicating, and he knows that he needs to apologise. Jaskier deserves the best apology, the prettiest words, and Geralt... can't do that. So, he does the most logical thing instead:
He hires Jaskier to write it for him.

Summary
Geralt has always suspected that Jaskier isn't human, but it didn't seem important to figure out what. When Jaskier wakes up with no memory, unable to speak or understand Common, they have to improvise, and Geralt finds himself wishing that he had asked a lot more questions while he still had the chance.

Summary
Just because Jaskier's job revolves around emotions, doesn't mean he's any good at dealing with his own. He especially does not like being faced with the mortality of his peers.

Summary
When Geralt ducks into a cave to escape the stifling heat and humidity of a sweltering summer day, the last thing he expects to come across is his bard. There's no mistaking it, though: that's Jaskier's voice, singing from somewhere deep within the cave. Something isn't quite right.
(A songfic for Lovecraft in Brooklyn by The Mountain Goats. CW for mentions of self-harm and suicidal ideation.)

Summary
It isn't until Geralt sees Jaskier again, a few days after their friendship shattered on a mountaintop, that he realises he's been cursed. Geralt can only speak in verse, and Jaskier takes it upon himself to figure out just what the witcher is really trying to say.

Summary
Jaskier has just made amends with Geralt, and is anxiously awaiting the arrival of the witcher and his Child Surprise where they'd agreed to meet. While he waits, he sees Yennefer, and through very little fault of his own (it's entirely his fault) she turns into a child. If he's lucky, he can figure out how to fix this before Geralt comes by.

Summary
Lambert meets a bard in a tavern. They become fast friends. Jaskier enjoys having a companion who appreciates him, but can't stop himself from wishing that a certain other witcher had done the same. Geralt sees the two of them together, and doesn't quite know what to do with himself. In the end, all three of them are thinking the same thing, albeit for different reasons:
Why'd it have to be him?

Summary
You only hold me up like this
'Cause you don't know who I really am
I used to waste my time on, waste my time on
Waste my time dreaming of being alive
(Now I only waste it dreaming of you)Geralt has been taking Jaskier for granted. Somehow, he'd fallen under the assumption that nothing could break the bard, and it caused him to be an absolute bastard. At this point, he's only hoping that he can fix what he's finally broken.

Summary
Geralt, Valdo, whatever you want to call him, is a complicated man no matter which face he wears. The only problem is that witchers don't feel. Bards, however, do, and Valdo is going to take full advantage of finally feeling allowed to be more than just a killing machine. He thinks back on his life, on the pains he's felt, and he puts the things he felt (and still feels) into words. The song is for his ears only, but it helps.

Summary
Month by month, little by little, Jaskier is beginning to heal from the way Geralt cast him aside on that accursed mountaintop. At first, he spends his time wallowing in his misery. It doesn't take long for him to find (perhaps too many) things with which to distract himself. Even with a busy schedule, though, he still finds time on occasion to drink and write his troubles away.

Summary
Ever heard of "positive affirmations"? Valdo has. The idea behind it, broadly speaking, is that if one repeats something to oneself enough (for example, "I am calm. All my worries flow away,") then, after a while, it starts to become true. That's why he writes these songs of his, for his ears only. He doesn't believe there's much good in himself, but he wants to; and, damn it, he's going to try.

Summary
After honest-to-Gods decades of mutual pining, Geralt and Jaskier have finally worked things out, and they've finally fallen into bed together. It's everything that neither of them ever let themselves hope for. Maybe, if they're especially lucky, neither of them will open their big mouth and mess everything up, like usual.

Summary
It's not like Jaskier was intending to spy on Valdo Marx. It's just that he happened to be walking by during a private moment, and, well, it's not his fault that he's... curious. After all, how often is it, really, that anyone is allowed a glimpse into the excessively private man's personal life? If nothing else, it might give him something to make fun of the other man for. Of course, things do not go according to plan.
