    Summary

    Yen crept to the door in time for her youngest brother’s first cry. And cry he did, loud and unceasing, demanding to be heard. Her mother was sweaty and bloody and pained, and for a moment Yen felt a kinship with her. She was always in pain. Her mother held her youngest brother, and above all looked relieved. Yen didn’t understand it then, and she wouldn’t for another sixty years.

    She leaned closer to the door. “Julian,” her mother said, to the little body in her arms. “Your name is Julian.”

    Julian. Another person to hate her.

    Or

    All Yen ever wanted was to be a good big sister.

    Summary

    Through a miracle of his own, Pedro survived the attack. He spends his life on the other side of that mountain range and is as unaware of his family's survival as they are of his own.

    50 years later, on his annual visit to the river to pay his respects, there is suddenly a gap in the mountains.

    Old man he may be, but he never lost his sense for adventure. And what he finds in that village, hidden behind the mountains, will change everything.

    Summary

    “You’re going to have to start taking Ciri to school, I can’t do it any more,” Yen says over the phone. “I mean it, Geralt, if we don’t want to have to go on the lam because I’ve murdered a kindergarten teacher, this is your fucking job now. Jesus Christ. I cannot fucking stand that man.”

    Or: Snippets in which Geralt is a very tired dad and Ciri's kindergarten teacher won't stop smiling.

    Summary

    “You had a run-in with that fire mage, didn’t you?” Vesemir asks. Geralt turns to look at him. No. But Jaskier’s heart skips a beat and he replies, “Yeah, paid me a visit,” and Geralt realizes he isn’t looking at the ink at all but the faint scars of burns that Yennefer must have healed for him. “I didn’t tell him anything. Not that I had anything to tell, anyway.”

    In which Jaskier gets the comfort and attention he is due. Also in which that same kindness is extended back to the rest of Kaer Morhen.

    Summary

    Geralt knows something happened to Jaskier. He doesn't know the details, but he knows he needs to do something to help the bard.
    Jaskier is stubborn and refuses to talk to him. Geralt doesn't give up that easily, though.

    ~ Since the series totally downplayed Jaskier's trauma, here's the fix. The bard is hurting, he's scared and doesn't know what to do with himself, but Geralt is there, acknowledging his pain. ~
