Summary
Jaskier gets fired from his job as a professor at Oxenfurt because of his political views, though the official excuse is that he plagiarised a fellow professor’s work.
Assets seized in reparation, and with nothing more than the belongings he can carry, he ends up accepting a job interview to teach at Kaer Morhen. The school is high up in the mountains, considerably smaller than Oxenfurt, and teaches a far more exotic population of students.
Jaskier has never even met an elf, or a dwarf, or a dragon for that matter. Not to mention anything about the school’s legendary guardians, who, as it happens, don’t seem to like him at all. He can understand. After all, Oxenfurt is far from friendly to anyone that isn’t human. If they don't seem to expect much better from him, he'll just have to show them.

Summary
"The missive reaches Jaskier two weeks after it was dated. Two weeks after the ink had dried, the fated, dreaded words stark against white paper, haunting in its contents.
Two weeks after King Consort Eist had apparently passed, with Queen Calanthe not too far from following."
Or, following a deadly plague in Cintra that claims the lives of the reigning monarchs, Jaskier is tasked with taking care of the young Cintran princess, at least until it is safe for her to return home to claim her throne.
Will he be able to successfully raise the young girl, despite his misgivings about his ability to do such a thing? Or will his doubts win out, especially once they meet up with a certain reticent witcher, who not so long ago wished him dead and then abandoned him without a word in the middle of the night? Only time, he supposes, will tell.

Summary
When Jaskier is young, he is sold to a slaver to solve his parents' problems with money.
He ends up at the royal court of Tretogor, a gold-collared bedslave, reserved for the royal line. Unlike the others, Jaskier doesn't settle into his fate, but rebels in what little ways he can.
It's no wonder then, that when the warlord of the north visits Tretogor for negotiations, Jaskier finds himself in the middle of it all.---000---
His mother's face is sad, and Julian wishes more than anything he could change that. She tucks a lock of his soft brown hair behind his ear.
“Remember how you said you wanted to help?”
Julian nods.
“There’s someone who… is coming to take a look at you. If you do well, we’ll get enough to pay the rent that’s still due. If we’re very lucky, we’ll get enough to buy back the farm.”
“What do I have to do?” Julian asks.
A tear tracks down his mother’s cheek.- Language:

Summary
Five years after Geralt slayed the King of Kaedwen and became a Warlord by accident, he receives a letter from an old friend, inviting him into the lands of the Dragons. Expecting only to meet another King, Geralt finds someone he never expected to see again.
But what is Jaskier doing in the Fire Nation, far from the Redanian land he was born in?
And how is he supposed to earn forgiveness he doesn't deserves while navigating a new Court full of lies and treachery?
Merthen was right, being deep in a Dragon's lair is a whole lot of problems.

Summary
The flawless ease with which Jaskier lands the job should be his very first clue that the whole thing is a bad fucking deal.
But, never one to look a gift paycheck in the mouth when it seems his indie music career will never take off, Jaskier signs right the fuck up when he walks in and is inexplicably offered the head bartender position at The Medallion.
Jaskier does not consider for a moment that he is actually qualified for it. Sure, he has experience, five years bartending in Oxenfurt before his recent move to Blaviken is nothing to sneeze at, but he has no actual managerial expertise.
Churning out shots, shaking mixed drinks and pulling pints at lightspeed is not something that is intimidating to Jaskier, but being expected to do so while also taking responsibility for managing the two other bartenders on staff is not Jaskier’s forte.
Still, after just over three weeks at his new job, Jaskier is cautiously optimistic that he has indeed, somehow, been able to fake it until he makes it.
That is, until the night that the pub's real owners come to visit, and Jaskier gets his first look at the Wolves who run this town.
