    Summary

    His eyes are at once dead and horribly, horribly alive. The milky film over his cornea does little to hush the luminous golden brown of his irises, huge around pupils so shrunken that Martin can hardly see them.
    Jonathan Sims blinks. Then he frowns.
    “Am I to take it you’ve never met a vampire, then?”
    Oh, Martin is going to get a rubbish review.

    Or,

    Struggling for income, Martin registers with an app that connects vampires with willing blood donors. His first client is not at all what he expected.

    Summary

    It’s been two weeks since Geralt shouted Jaskier away from him on that mountain and Jaskier has been handling it like a champ by forlornly wandering alone in the wilderness with his lute. When he (literally) stumbles across an injured white wolf he decides to take a chance and see if he can help it, appreciating the irony of the situation but not quite realizing why it is that the wolf’s golden eyes look exactly like his Witcher’s...

    And hundred winters are but as the hands
    Of loyal vassals toiling for their liege."

    Summary

    When Jaskier was four, he slipped his mother’s watch and went to the field to gather a bouquet of dandelions. He climbed back into the yard, as stealthy as a child really cared to be, and crept over to the barn. In the barn, lived a secret. (The man he thought his father said the secret was a monster, a plague. His mother said the secret was his sister.)

    OR

    Jaskier comes from a far humbler background, and would really like to know why Yennefer never came back for her youngest brother.
