    Summary

    Jaskier meets another bard who seems to be perfect for him in every way. Geralt doesn't like it.

    “What surprises me,” Jaskier continued, “is that there’s a musician of such skill and I’ve never heard of him. He wasn’t at Oxenfurt, doesn’t compete in the tournaments and big festivals, has no reputation whatsoever. He knew all my songs but had none of his own to play. With talent like that – not to mention a face like that – he’d be a sensation. Melitele, Geralt, is this what envy feels like?”

    I don’t know, Geralt thought. I’ve never been envious. Have I?

    Summary

    “You saved my life, oh mighty Witcher. I have basically no choice but to follow you.”

    ***

    Under mysterious circumstances, Jaskier gets blessed with magic. When Geralt saves Jaskier's life, he is forced to fulfil three wishes for the Witcher. It's more complicated than Jaskier imagined. Mostly because Geralt insists he doesn't want anything from life.

    A Djinn!Jaskier AU with copious amounts of angst. And self-drawn art.

    Alternative summary from Alex_Storm: "Poor Jaskier, cursed to live and to follow and stuck with all this magic devotion to a man who’s sworn to kill creatures like him!"

    Summary

    Jaskier could feel the years catching up on him. A night spent sleeping outside now left him with aches that stayed all day. Trekking twenty miles in a day seemed far more daunting than it used to, and he found himself having to take far more breaks than he did a decade ago. More than that, Jaskier just felt weary. He was tired of constant travel and desperately hoping he could find a place to perform, even with all his fame. He needed a break, somewhere he could go and rest.

    Jaskier went to the coast.

    OR

    After the mountain, Jaskier decides he's done with Geralt, done with being his barker, and done with traveling the continent. He goes to the coast and opens up a tavern in the hopes of living a peaceful life. But just because you take the bard out of the music doesn't mean you can take the music out of the bard.

    Summary

    Jaskier wasn't in the market for a replacement witcher. Not after Geralt had broken his heart so thoroughly. There must surely be more appreciative audiences and travel companions to be had, and if he was lucky maybe even with a smidge less chaos and mortal peril thrown into the bargain.

    Yet within a fortnight, he'd gone and stumbled across another witcher in the middle of absolutely nowhere. It's possible that Destiny is laughing at him.
