Summary
It has become common for the Witcher schools to enter agreements with the nobility. These arrangements have always been sealed with money or goods, but the nobles of Kerack request something more traditional from the Wolves- a wedding.
In an attempt to bridge the gap between himself and his future husband, and hopefully avoid complete disaster, Eskel decides to include a personal letter with the official missive. He struggles to find the right words, and is convinced he's going to make a terrible first impression.
Jaskier begs to differ.

Summary
A Witcher's enhanced sense of smell tells them more about the world (and the people in it) than humans could ever dream of. Thus far, it has mostly served Lambert in looking out for his brothers, and avoiding lying assholes (or pointing those lying assholes out for a beating, depending on Geralt's current orders).
When a stranger named Jaskier saves Lambert from a horrifically painful end, Lambert has no idea what to make of him, even with the help of his nose. He finds himself worrisomely obsessed with learning more about the bard. The more Lambert learns, the harder he falls, until he knows he'll do anything to stay at Jaskier's side.
Even if it means doing something Witchers never do - getting married.

When Remus sets aside his sword, it is understood that one of the senior Wolves will be chosen to guard Prince Julian in his stead. But, when Commander Roche comes to the keep, he names Geralt as Remus’s successor, and Geralt is forced to decide which oaths are worth giving, and what it means to keep them.
