Of Questionable

by orphan_account

The complicated thing is when they ended up caring too much.

Prolonged Disagreement

by poselikeateam

Perhaps, with how much Jaskier hates the man, Geralt expected to meet him earlier. Perhaps he expected never to meet him at all. One thing is for sure, though: when Geralt of Rivia meets Valdo Marx, he has no trouble understanding why his husband hates the man so much. [inspired by/quotes from Johnny Dangerously]

by irisbleufic

She's so...loud.”

by irisbleufic

They both stared at the floor for a few seconds, attempting to recover from the shock they'd given each other. “I know that feeling all too well,” Edward offered, disarmingly apologetic. “It hurts, doesn't it?” “What hurts?” Oswald asked absently, turning to bypass him, finding himself blocked by Edward. Edward's expression went softer, belying whatever flippancy he'd displayed before. “Rejection.”
