Geraskier one shots

runaway prince

Jaskier is actually a prince that ran away. Nobody knows this because he changed his name
------------------------------------------------------------

"If life could give me one blessing it would be to take you off my hands."

Those were the last words geralt had said to the bard. Jaskier had been heartbroken and so he left.

Jaskier had followed geralt through everything and in turn the witcher told him it was all his fault.

jaskier planned to just continue with his life. He was heartbroken but figured he could turn it into a song.

He didn't see much of an option. The witcher made it clear that he wasn't welcome.

Jaskier was never one to push himself on others when they truly didn't want him and this wasn't different.

He got to a town and planned to just stay low for a while maybe make his way back to the academy.

Then his fathers men came through town. He knew his fathers men had been looking for him but he had been so sure they wouldn't find him.

One smirked as two of them grab his arms. He drops his lute case and the gaurds don't even look at it.

"Time to go home Julian. The witcher can't help you this time" one of them says and jaskier growled

He knew they never got close enough due to geralt and now that he wasn't around they were taking their chance.

Before he can try and fight his mouth is covered with a cloth. It must have had something on it because shortly jaskier is sleeping.

The gaurds carry him away leaving his lute behind. A barmaid who had talked to him before took it to put it somewhere safe.

She hoped the witcher would come looking for the bard. She had heard the absolutly heartbreaking song the bard had sung about the witcher.

When jaskier woke up he found himself in his childhood bedroom. He looked around and frowned remembering what happened.

"Damn it" he shouts throwing a few things.

He didn't care about anything in this room anymore. He had stopped caring the day he ran.

He looks out his window and sighs seeing all the gaurds. He was trapped once again.

Jaskier just stayed there staring out the window until the door opened. He looked expecting his father but instead its a mage

His face crinkled and he tries to get as far as he can from her. He had enough experience with mages to not like them.

She smiles and stayed where she was so not to scare him more. The door closes and he can hear the sound of the door being locked.

"I'm sorry to scare you. My name is Freya. I am the kindoms mage, your father sent for me to check on you" she says and jaskier sighs.

"Do you have any wounds prince Julian?" She asks and jaskier huffs

"It's jaskier" he says and she looks suprised

"I go by jaskier. Not prince and especially not julian" he says and she chuckles a little

"I can call you jaskier when others are not around. So your father tells me you have been traveling with a witcher" she says and jaskier nods slightly relaxing.

"Geralt" jaskier says and his voice is laced with sadness.

"Oh yes I've heard of him. Yen has told me about him" she says and he looks up suprised
