[oh-sturg-art]

Last day of Fishuary !! Happy leap day!

Prompt: Your Choice!

—

Spent a bit more effort on this one because I had to do my girl justice

The bowmouth guitarfish (or guitarshark), scientific name rhina ancylostoma. Or a mud skate. Or a shark ray

These guys are awesome!! Everyone at work thinks they’re a hybrid when they see her, but they’re actually their own species! They are considered to be in the ray family

These guys are critically endangered

[some-stars]

prompt idea: maybe for the ot3, after they've all gotten together, yen and jaskier hanging out for the first time without geralt present? maybe it's kind of awkward at first, before descending into absolute chaos?

OK this is not QUITE the vibe you were probably going for, but I tried! Also I’m EXTREMELY anxious because Yennefer POV is really fucking hard for me for some reason I don’t understand??? IDK if this is, like, good, but here it is anyway, please be kind to me. Also I might continue this at some point and actually write the sex, whooooo knows, not me. anyway here is baby’s first yennskier, enjoy

(goddammit, the readmore worked right until I edited it to remove a comma and now it’s all...out here. sorry, i can do absolutely nothing about this. it’s not porn, at least.)

--

She woke to Geralt slipping quietly out of bed, and for a moment she was confused, because she could still feel the distinct presence of a masculine body at her back, snugged up against her.

Then she remembered, and for the first time in a terribly long time she felt almost flustered. She sat up, and said--softly, so as not to wake him-- "Are you sure you won't need any help?"

Geralt shook his head. "It's weakest at dawn. I'll be fine." He spoke just as softly, and when he looked at her she could see how much he wanted to get back in bed with them.

She gave him a smile. "See that you are," she said. "And hurry back."

She watched him finish putting on his armor, and then the door closed behind him, and she was alone with Jaskier. They hadn't been, she realized, and it felt strange. After all, the two of them had become rather intimate only a few hours before. And yet they'd never had a conversation, not without Geralt there to buffer them.

Well. Time to remedy that, clearly. She lay back down, turning on her side so they were facing each other, and looked at him for a minute, thinking. For all that he had a boyish face, and probably would until he died, he hid a man's figure under those silk doublets and brocaded trousers. That he was an attentive lover hadn't been a surprise, considering his reputation. And yet she had been surprised, because--because she hadn't expected to want him. She'd expected to allow him, perhaps even to enjoy his presence in bed the way she had come to enjoy it elsewhere, for all that she was loathe to admit it.

She had thought they would keep Geralt firmly between them, but that hadn't been how it had happened at all.

Contemplation grew dull, and she reached out and gently--but not too gently--tweaked his nose. He sputtered awake indignantly and she held back a grin.

"Good morning," she said, and was pleased to see him cycle through the same "wait, what, who, oh" realization she had before.

"Uh, good morning," he said, and looked around with only a hint of worry on his face.

"Geralt went to fight the wraith," she informed him, and enjoyed the way his eyes widened briefly.

"Ah! So I have the pleasure of your sole company, then. That's...that's nice."

She cocked one eyebrow. "I should hope so."

"Let me try that again. Yennefer, it is my absolute pleasure to be alone with you this lovely morning after, assuming you're not going to decide you regret sharing Geralt with me and take revenge by turning me into a worm."

"I take much more interesting revenge than that."

"I...don't know what that means? I'm a little afraid? Possibly in a good way?" He looked at her searchingly. "Give me something to work with, here. Good mood? Bad mood?"

"Good," she said, taking pity on him and smiling. "For some reason, I find myself in a very good mood this morning."

He beamed. "Would it be arrogant of me to assume that I had a hand in that?"

"Well," she said, "you had a tongue in it, at any rate."

He spluttered. "Yennefer. I am scandalized."

"What, you can do it but I can't talk about it?" On a whim, she traced a finger down the side of his face. "And I didn't think anything could scandalize you."

"Well, most of the women I eat out don't talk about it afterward," he said, regaining his composure as quickly as he'd lost it. "But hey, that means this is a great opportunity for a performance review. Any notes?"

"Hmm." She furrowed her brow and pretended to consider. "You were perhaps a little over-eager, to begin."

"I can hardly be blamed for it. I didn't think I'd get to touch you, much less..." His tongue flicked out briefly, and it didn't seem like a lascivious gesture so much as an unconscious one. She'd seen him do it before, when he was at a loss for words--when insulting her, once upon a time. When trying awkwardly to be courteous, more recently.

She shouldn't have found it so charming. She shouldn't have found anything about him so charming, just because he happened to be very good at oral sex. It was a less common skill among men, but hardly rare. And yet here she was, struggling not to touch his face again.

"You know," she said, changing the subject, "it occurred to me this morning that we've never had a real conversation, just the two of us."

"Haven't we? No, I suppose we haven't." He sat up, leaning against the headboard. It was rather pleasant, to look up at him like this. "Well then, what would you like to discuss? Politics? Poetry? Not magic, I hope, I'm frightfully ignorant on the subject."

"Magic is boring," she said. "Tell me...tell me what you'd want, if you could have anything."

"Going right for the heavy stuff, I see," he said, but he didn't seem bothered by it. "I'd want...well, I'd want to stop waking up every other morning with a crick in my neck, for one thing."

She lifted a hand to the side of his neck and raised her eyebrows questioningly. His eyes widened.

"Can you really? Yes, please, go ahead."

She concentrated for a moment, and felt the knot under her fingertips ease. A startled smile spread across his face and the tiny lines that had settled around his mouth vanished.

"Gods, that's amazing. Thank you." He said it fervently, like she'd done some great and noble service for him, and it made her feel strange and warm inside.

"Come on now," she said, "answer me for real. What do you want?" It surprised her, how much she wanted to hear the answer. She'd thought the question was just something to waste time, but now it felt important.

"I...honestly, I don't know." His hand slipped into hers, and she let it; he wasn't looking at her, but out into the distance. "I mean, for a long time, the answer was..."

"Geralt."

"Yeah," he said, and smiled wryly. "But then I had that. And then it was for him not to pick you over me, and that solved itself rather nicely too."

"You must want something else," she said, thumb tracing little circles over his wrist. "To be the greatest poet on the continent, perhaps."

He lifted his chin. "I am the greatest poet on the continent."

"Wealth, then? A manor and an estate?"

He shook his head. "I don't want anything, truly." Almost shyly, he glanced at her. "I'm just very, very happy."

"That's...good," she said, and felt suddenly awkward for no clear reason. Now, of course, he would ask her the same thing. She stared at the ceiling and waited.

He didn't, though. He watched her--she could feel it--and as the silence stretched out, she thought about dipping into the surface of his thoughts, just to see. But she held herself back, because she doubted Jaskier would like it any better than Geralt did, and no matter that, unlike Geralt, he wouldn't know.

Finally she couldn't take it any longer. "Aren't you going to ask me?" she said. "What I want?" She looked up at him, and found a softness in his gaze that unsettled and soothed her in equal measure.

"You didn't seem like you wanted me to," he said. As if it were as simple as that. She frowned.

"But don't you want to know?"

"Terribly," he said, and--slowly--tangled his fingers in her hair, scratching lightly at her scalp, making it tingle pleasantly. "But I can wait."

She wanted him then, suddenly, in a way that had nothing to do with his skillful showing the night before. "You may be patient," she said, and pulled him down beside her, "but I'm not. I want to see if your cock performs as well as your mouth. Are you up for it?"

His eyes widened, but he recovered quickly. "In every sense of the word, my dear," he said, and when she kissed him he opened up for her beautifully, just like he had last night.

for the fic specific questions: what was the scene that was the easiest to write?? Either in your daemon au or demand an encore? :)

For the daemon au, the bath scene was actually really easy? Partly because Henry and Joey gave us so much to work with already, but also because I love having my hair played with so I maybe might have projecting a little. And every line that comes out of Ness’ mouth is easy because I just ask myself, what would I say in this situation if I were allowed to be as feral as my heart desires? And then she says that

And for demand an encore, the scene with past!Geralt and Jaskier talking about what they’d do if they weren’t witchers came very naturally - and, despite not having written action in quite a while, the sparring scene was hammered out almost in one sitting which is very unusual for me! I tend to flit back and forth between scenes when I write

Geralt's been having a shit week. His best friend has been ignoring him, suddenly all the undergrads hate him, and no one will tell him what's going on.

Or

Geralt and Jaskier are both Big Men on Campus. Geralt is a bad friend, and Jaskier won't let him apologize.

guitarshark replied to your post: i wanna write, and i have two WIPs and a bunch of...

…have you considered, something goes wrong on a hunt, Geralt and Jaskier get separated, one of them gets very very worried that something happened to the other (thus, possible waterworks), oops they’re actually okay, but reassurance is needed in the form of a very thorough railing

all my followers have such incredible good ideas and i’m so lucky to have them
