Summary
This is where he’d first met Jaskier, in this dark tavern in Posada. As Geralt plays his lute and sings, his heart aches at the memory of Jaskier, a painful reminder of who he’d lost.
His eyes wander through the tavern until they settle on a dark figure in the corner, sitting at the table where Geralt had once sat, a lifetime ago, and Geralt’s voice dies in his throat.
A witcher.
He makes his way over, hope blooming in his heart as he leans against a pillar and blurts out the words etched deep into his memory, words that had been Jaskier’s, once upon a time.
“I love the way you just… sit in the corner and brood.”
Or: Geralt is reborn into a world where he’s a human bard, and when he finally regains his past memories, he thinks that Jaskier is dead - until he sees a witcher in Posada.

Summary
The other bard, whose face is so impossibly familiar, lets out a choked sound. “Jaskier? How are you human - how are you here?”
Frowning, Jaskier looks at the bard, and it’s with shock that he recognises the familiar lines of that face, with features that he knows better than his own, and he sees -
“Geralt?” Jaskier squeaks, staring at the bard - at Geralt. “You... you’re...”
Gone are Geralt’s white hair and the golden eyes and the scars; gone are the swords and the armour. Instead, Geralt has curly red hair and green eyes and freckles, a lute slung over his shoulder, and he looks…
He looks human.
*
When Jaskier stumbles into an alternate universe, he meets another Jaskier, who’s a witcher, and another Geralt, who’s a bard. This alternate version of Jaskier and Geralt are together, and Jaskier pines, longing for his own Geralt.

the song of your soul by andrewminyards

Summary
I’ll sing for you, Geralt had once told him, eyes earnest and soft. Jaskier can’t sing anymore, can't touch anyone’s heart with lilting songs - but Geralt has music in his soul now, shaped by the joy and vibrancy of Oxenfurt.
Jaskier has lost his music. He hasn't dared to bring up his past memories of Oxenfurt, but with Geralt, maybe Jaskier can regain some part of himself. Oxenfurt brought Geralt back to him, after all.

Summary
“Here, let me,” Geralt murmurs, prying Jaskier’s hands away from the straps of his armour. Careful to avoid jostling Jaskier’s wound, Geralt unbuckles Jaskier’s armour with gentle hands, exposing his body bit by bit.
“Into the bath,” Geralt orders once Jaskier’s armour is fully off. He lets his gaze roam over the lines of Jaskier’s bare body, familiar from the past few years he’s spent exploring and relearning it, lets his gaze roam over strong shoulders and scarred skin as Jaskier steps into the bath, settling down into the warm, soapy water.
The tension leaks from Jaskier’s shoulders as Geralt brushes his fingers through his hair, carefully working through the tangles, and Jaskier sinks into his touch, leaning back with a low, contented sigh.

Written for Witchertober Day 12: Baths, featuring Reverse AU where Geralt helps bathe Jaskier after a hunt.
