Jaskier has never been afraid of the Witcher. Sometimes it shocks people around them.
------------------------------------------------------------Jaskier had never been afraid of the Witcher. Not in that tavern when they met. Jaskier had strolled over calmly.
Even after the bard realized he was a witcher he wasn't scared. He had started following geralt.
Geralt at first thought he was hiding his fear and would get scared eventually.
The bard followed him into every danger. Didn't matter how horrible the witcher made them sound.
Geralt was still sure he would eventually get scared off. Geralt had tried almost everything to scare the bard.
None of it worked. Not giving him the silent treatment, not telling him to stop following. He had even told the bard he was annoyed but jaskier would just smile and brush it off.
It had left the witcher shocked. Nobody had ever shown such lack of fear towards him. People would usually be easily scared away.
They had been in another forest for a contract. They didn't have a fire and it was cold but jaskier didn't complain.
Eventually night falls and geralt grabs his potions. He looks towards the bard who is still sitting against a tree.
"Stay here and stay quiet" he grumbles before going into the forest further.
Jaskier did as told staying there quietly. After a few hours geralt had killed the beast.
The potion was still strumming through his vains but he walks towards the camp.
Before this he would have stayed away until it faded but he was trying to get the bard to leave so he figured this would be a sure way.
He walked into the little camp they had made. Jaskier was still sitting against the tree, he turns to look at geralt.
Geralt got ready for the fear, for the disgust. He knew he was doing it on purpose but he still hated being looked at like a monster.
Geralt is shocked to find no fear. Not even a little. He walks closer and jaskier just stands.
The bard walks towards him with a soft smile on his lips. He leads geralt towards the fire.
"Did you get hurt?" Jaskier asks shocking the witcher
He had cleaned geralt's wounds and helped get him into bed. The bard had sat by his side as the effects wore off.
Jaskier never showed fear. He just smiles and reassured the witcher it was over.
It made geralt truly accept that the bard wasn't afraid and wasn't going to run away.
After that they got closer. Jaskier became more confident and geralt found himself opening up.
They joked easily and it sometimes shocked geralt at how quickly he got comfortable around the bard.
Jaskier would say whatever was on his mind and geralt got used to his antics.
It was a funny sight to see. The look on villagers faces when jaskier showed no fear.
The first time it happened they were in a town for supplies. Jaskier insisted on singing for some extra coin.
After his son the bard had join the witcher at the bar. The barmaid gave them a nervous look but kept their distance.
Their faces soon change to shock by the next interaction between them.
"Can I have some?" Jaskier asks already reaching for the witchers drink
"No" geralt says but the bard is faster.
"Jaskier" geralt says but the bard gulps some down.
He give a smug smirk and geralt just grumbles. The witcher holds 2 fingers to order 2 more.
This shocked everyone around them. They had been suprised the bard wasn't dead.
Geralt found their looks amusing. Jaskier seemed unfazed by the attention it had drawn.
The next time gerakt had gone alone to kill a beast. It was too dangerous for jaskier to go with.
The witcher had come back covered in mud and blood. He smelt like death and all the villagers shy away.
Jaskier sitting at a little desk in the middle just laughs. He has a bright smile on his face and is obviously amused.
The man who hired geralt throws him a bag of coin. Everyone in the room is staring at jaskier who finally stops laughing
"Took you long enough. Honestly were you out there messing around or killing it?" Jaskier says making everyone tense.
That comment would get anyone killed. Their shock only intensifies as the bard continues.
"You smell horrid. You need a bath" jaskier says standing and walking towards the witcher.
Everyone stays still as if afraid to breath. They wait for the bard to be killed.
Instead the witcher nods his head and jaskier smiles more. Everyone is left standing there stunned as they leave.
Geralt felt a little pride at how comfortable jaskier was around him. He would never admit it out loud.
Each time made the pride grow into something almost possesive. He pushed it down and kept it hidden.
The latest time had been at the stables. They finished a job and were getting ready to leave.
Jaskier had insisted on brushing, feeding and giving roach love before they leave.
Geralt stayed a bit back and watched the bard. He could see others looking shocked.
Everyone knew not to touch the witchers and the stable hands who are brave enough soon learn she bites.
With jaskier she just huffs happily and pressed her head into him. Geralt feels warm at the sight and he has to focus on keeping his smile hidden.
Jaskier wasn't afraid of the Witcher and that was something nobody else could say.
