Ban Ard A'baeth

by LenaLawlipop

"Do you know where we are?" he asked, quietly. Jaskier couldn't bring himself to speak, and Geralt seemed to interpret it as a no. "This place is called Ban Ard A'baeth. That might ring a bell?" Of course it did. Jaskier looked at the valley, extending in front of him, endless, infinite. At the mountains, surrounding them, almost a circle around them. At the balustrade around them, shielding them from a fall to their deaths from the peak they had walked up to during those hours of darkness. When he looked up, Jaskier's gaze was met with the roof of a wooden gazebo. It looked old, but clean. Jaskier was sure someone nearby cleaned it often, and probably repaired it as well. When he turned around, he saw Geralt, already half turned on his bench, observing him. The sunrise was nearly upon them, and the timid first rays of light of the day reflected in his amber eyes, in his slitted pupils. "Geralt," he whispered again. "This is Ban Ard A'baeth?"

take you back

by irrationalqueer

“This is so fucking stupid,” Dan hisses, rolling his eyes when Phil slips in the mud again and catches himself on Dan’s shoulder. Dan shifts to wrap an arm around him, though, and helps him to the base of the hill they’d been climbing down, and Phil just grins at him. “I just thought it would be cool,” Phil says brightly, tapping his phone screen to bring up the flashlight app now that Dan’s waving his aimlessly around. “You don’t believe in ghosts, or demons, or whatever’s supposed to be here, so why does it matter?”
