    Summary

    When he looks at her like that she can almost understand why George would lie to him, in favour of keeping the balance of everything the same. Even if it’s for just a little bit longer. She remembers something George said to her, in the beginning, at the start of the job that led them into the wild descent of where they are now. You have to say no to him. Or you’ll make him worse. It feels unfair to think that maybe this is just another thing that George said no to. Another distraction, the thing that shakes him off of the even path.

    She can’t make sense of the way that they are around each other. The two boys together and where that leaves her. Where she fits into the routines and the inside jokes and the way the two of them look at each other, that they think she doesn’t notice.

    Or Lucy and George kiss, and together the three of them have to figure out what they want.

    Just perfect. The UST is off the charts, as is the characterisation.

    Summary

    It was about the torture. The torture he was experiencing presently, and also every minute of every hour of every day, standing alongside Edwin Payne and saying nothing out of the ordinary at all.

    Summary

    "Do ballads of regret and heartbreak make for popular tavern fare?" Yennefer snaps, setting down the pestle. 

    "Not so much in the taverns," Jaskier replies, unfazed. "But plenty of lords like having their heartstrings tugged. Also, shockingly popular with nobles trying to annoy each other. Upper-crust pettiness happens to be a very lucrative source of revenue.

    "Besides," Jaskier continues. "Not everything I write makes it to the ears of the masses." His voice turns wry, but there's a touch of sincerity beneath it. "Some of it has a far smaller audience."

    ---

    Yennefer expects sex when she spirits Jaskier away for the winter. The mortifying ordeal of knowing and being known takes her by surprise.
