    Summary

    With an approaching deadline that would determine the future of Harry’s art career, he really needed to put his head down and finish his comic. But it wasn’t easy to focus on art when after years of silence, the cult that had killed his parents reappeared in a failed attempt to blow up parliament, and Harry’s teenage obsession the Soldier was rumoured to be involved.

    Or: in which Harry is a struggling comic book artist with minor obsession about the Winter Soldier, and Bucky, the Winter Soldier happens to be living in his shed.

    Summary

    His stranger tilts his head, staring for a while in a silence that was both peaceful and yet precarious at the same time, almost as if they were both waiting for something.

    Jaskier looks back, unthinking. “I’m Julian. Of the Pankratz family.”

    A nod. “ ‘m Geralt.”

    He tries the name in his mouth. “Geralt.” And then tries it a second time. “Geralt?… It suits you.”

    ~~

    Julian Alfred Pankratz is a strange omega lord, isolated from noble society for years in the Ward. Now that he’s finally returned, he finds that the only thing left for him to do is seek out suitable marriage contracts. Although he dreads the thought, perhaps a strange man from the garden can help him out.

    Finished chapter 8, reading as written. Julian has a twin and is trying to find a marriage for each of them because she's stuck in, essentially, a medical asylum.

    Summary

    Contrary to general belief, Letho of Gulet does have feelings. Has an abundance of them, in fact. Most Witchers do. So his problem isn't a lack of emotions as much as it is a lack of knowledge of what the hell most of them even are and what he's supposed to do about them when he's got them.
    -----
    Or, Letho and Geralt have known each other for decades. When Letho gets injured during a contract, Geralt finds him and offers to travel with him until he's well. Letho accepts - and though neither of them know it at the time, that choice will end up changing their lives forever.

    Finished chapter 22. The one where Geralt and Letho are idiots, with amazingly written fight scenes and perfect characterisation.

    Summary

    “No post on Sundays” Uncle Vernon announced happily, “No damn letters today-”
    Something came whizzing down the kitchen chimney as he spoke and caught him sharply on the back of the head. The next moment, thirty or forty letters came pelting out of the fireplace like bullets.
    “That does it!” he snapped, his beady little eyes focused solely on Harry, “It’s you that they want. And they won’t stop coming after us until you’re… gone”.
    Harry didn't like the sound of that.
    “But Vernon, we can’t! You heard what that- that despicable old man told us!”
    “Don’t worry, pet” Vernon said, his nasty grin triumphant, “I’ll leave him someplace so far away that those freaks will never trace him back to us. There’s an institute up north, for these- these hopeless cases and whatnot - St Brutus's Secure Centre for Boys. I’ll leave him there, and then we can get back to our nice, normal life”.

    Or, the one where Harry doesn't attend Hogwarts in first year but finds his way to the wizarding world anyway, and this changes everything.

    Whoops! Accidentally caught up!
    The one where Harry goes to St. Brutus, teaches himself magic, and starts Hogwarts in year 5.
