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.
(A post-mountain fic about Jaskier running into other witchers - original, I know).

Refuge in Lettenhove by Descarada

Summary
Geralt and Ciri are on the run from Nilfgaard. After a narrow escape from certain death, they seek refuge in a Lettenhove court. Geralt is shocked to find that the viscount, (and secret leader in the resistance) is none other than the man he scorned on the mountain. But Jaskier is acting as though he’s never met him before in his life.
Is this is the chance Geralt needs to set things right?
-----
He took Jaskier’s hand. There were still small lute calluses on the tips of his fingers. He clung to that. No matter what anyone said, his bard’s fingers were in his hand after all this time. It made him want to sob. To lay his head on Jaskier’s lap. To tell him he was finally ready to be honest.
But this was not a man ready to receive his feelings or comfort him.
There was nothing soft about Jaskier now.
His eyes now looked like gates snapped shut. He waited for Geralt in brittle silence. The two mages held their breath. Ciri fidgeted with her dirty trousers.
“Geralt." Ciri took his arm and squeezed it. “Geralt are you sure? We can leave. We don’t have to do this.”
Geralt locked eyes with Jaskier.
“No Ciri. I trust his lordship with my life and yours.”

The line between love and hate can sometimes be so thin that even the best spies can simply miss it.

Our two favourite spies meet in different circumstances than in the movie, but it’s NOT AU. -

Summary
He is a daffodil buried deep in the soil of your mind, frozen there in the earth until he pushes up stiff-backed and elegant and golden come spring. You try to skip your springs. Sleep through them. Not because Illya is a painful memory, but because he is a memory at all.
or, Napoleon and Illya meet again in 1990, after twenty years apart. Much has changed, though some things have not.

Summary
The week after he intercepts Fletcher, that squirrelly little cunt, outside the London Miramax office, Raymond reluctantly ventures down to Brixton.
Under normal circumstances, Raymond tends to give this part of Brixton a wide berth, but he has unfinished business that needs attending to. Of course, that doesn’t mean he has to like being accosted by the overwhelming smell of greasy fish and chips when he pushes the car door open, doesn’t mean he has to be pleased about stepping into a piece of chewed-up gum the moment he sets a foot on the kerb.
But then, he can always take a shower after an errand in Brixton. The deep-seated discomfort of unfinished business doesn’t wash off that easily.

Illya Kuryakin's violence was an unstoppable force of nature, a hurricane that revolved around Napoleon Solo, who could walk through its fury and to the other side untouched.

Summary
“Goddamn you, you stupid, stubborn Russian,” Napoleon groans, glaring at him now. “You have to try. I won’t— I won’t let you throw your life away like this.”
“And under what circumstance would you permit me to do so?” Illya snarls back. His anger is something familiar to retreat into. Something he both can and cannot control, unlike this situation. “That is not up to you. You don’t get to make that decision.”
(Following a diastrous mission, Illya doesn't exactly cope with the new situation he finds himself in)

Summary
Something about him draws the eye. There are five men skating in the practice rink, four days before the official opening of the games, but Napoleon’s gaze follows only one of them as he glides effortlessly across the ice. Perfectly controlled, not a step out of place, even in practice. Perhaps Napoleon’s recent fascination—no, merely a casual interest, thank you—can be attributed to his search for a break in the skater’s icy exterior. Some sign that the man is human, that he has hopes and dreams and feelings like the rest of them. Not that it really matters, they’re not in direct competition, but it bothers him nonetheless.
(Yes, it's an Olympic Figure Skating AU. Do I need to say more? Featuring secret training sessions, falling in love with the last person you should, and learning how to lose control.)
