[definitely-not-iorveth]

titles!! (i only know how to title things with allusions, i'm sorry)

knight of cups

consider the lilies

a game of cards

<3

oohhh 'consider the lilies' really speaks to me.

it gives me the image of iorveth stuck in temeria very much against his will, post-tw3, forced to play nice with the dh'oine.

therefore, i present to you: iorveth aén fidháil, filavandrel aén fidháil's cousin. and seeing as dol blathanna can't have a relative of their former king and current queen's advisor running wild doing dana meadbh only knows what, they track him down, very politely ask him to return home, and then cart him off to temeria as an elven ambassador.

he's not thrilled with it, and neither is roche.

and then they fall in love, of course.

since this resonated with me very strongly, i've written a smol snippet that will hopefully transform into a full fic some day 😌

“Consider the lilies,” Francesca drawls. “We want to make a good impression.” Iorveth turns his head away from the glittering display in front of him to give her a sneer. “No, you want to make a good impression,” he growls. “Filavandrel just wants me out of the way without loosening his hold on the leash. He couldn’t care less whether I make a good impression on the dh'oine.” Francesca gives him a sweet smile and struts her way over to his side. “Be that as it may,” she picks up a golden chain adorned with three nacre lilies nestled within two large leaves elaborately carved out of jade, “you would do well to remember that as of the present, I am the queen, and he is merely an advisor, however much treasured.” She wraps the chain around his neck. “And as the queen, I can make your life quite unpleasant.” The clasp closes with a quiet click, and it feels like a collar snapping shut. He glances back at the display as she glides to his front to adjust the pendant over the richly embroidered, fur-trimmed tunic. “Vyzima is quite a way off from Dol Blathanna,” he notes snidely, and she pauses in her movement. “You underestimate my reach, little fox. You will find no burrow deep enough in all of Temeria to escape my grasp.” The sensation of her cool fingers sliding down his cheek feels more like a slap than a caress that it is. Just to spite her, he picks up a rose brooch with petals of white agate and pins it over his heart. The corners of Francesca’s lips turn down, but she doesn’t comment on it.

the other two would be much shorter:

knight of cups: another sequel to ssof. geralt, currently a tourney knight in toussaint, visits his two old pals to share stories of his knightly conquests and vineyard success stories. then he drinks them both under the table, earning himself the title of the knight of cups in their eyes.

a game of cards: this one would be very short, maybe a drabble. set during tw2, roche's path. geralt witnesses the stripes nagging ves to play strip poker (strip gwent?), and roche just throwing his hands up and leaving. so geralt asks him if he's really cool with it, seeing as ves seems kind of like a little sister, kind of like a daughter to him? and roche just waves him off. 'see for yourself.' and geralt does, and what he witnesses is ves stripping all of the stripes bare.

thank you so much for the ask! 💚😘 i enjoyed coming up with these very much. 🥰🤗

send me a made-up fic title and i'll tell you what i would write to go with it

Sentient Mystery Shack, who is really biased towards Stan, so when Ford tells Stan he has to give it back after the summer it’s on sight.

Ford keeps tripping over nothing, nothing is where it's supposed to be and somehow he keeps running into closets when he tries to go outside.

But the worst part, the WORST part is that Ford's lightbulb just won't. Work. No matter what he does it keeps flickering and exploding.

Ford is spiraling. 

There is no reason why it shoudln’t work. All his trial runs work perfectly. He’s already checked the Shacks wiring three times and relearned this dimensions science from the ground up. 

Nothing works.

The Rift? Bill? The impending apocalypse? Eating? Sleep? Who cares about that. 

WHY. WONT. THE. LIGHTBULB. WORK???

It doesn’t help that Stan keeps laughing at him.

“Then you do it!” Ford eventually snaps at Stan.

Stan shrugs and with a little song under his breath screws his own lightbulb in. It works perfectly.

Stanford screams.
