[ OPEN/SOME CLOSED ] if I had to do it over, I'd do it all again

[cointosser]

Who: Jaskier, Ciri, Geralt, Yennefer, Alucard, and some open prompts
When: Mid-to-Late January
Where: Cadens and the Horizon
What: Jaskier wakes from a vivid, nasty dream to physical evidence that it was unfortunately very real. He spirals, but like, only a little bit. It mostly involves getting drunk and buying hats to cope.
Warnings: Mentions of bodily injury/torture, maybe PTSD, heavy drinking



[Will be throwing starters (including open ones) down below! You can hit me up at scathefire or #scathefire6612 if you'd like to plot anything or want an additional starter. Also, let me know if you'd like me to avoid S2 spoilers, because there will be a lot.]

should we wrap this up soon, handwave a nice night together? c:

[It's working enough with the mix of alcohol in him, at least, and honestly, what else could he ask for? He only wants to feel like... no. He only wants to feel. Feeling is enough if it isn't drowning.

And drowning has been it. For days. (A week?)]

You have a strange penchant for wanting to do kind things, don't you? It's almost a bit suspicious.

[It isn't at all. In fact, he's rather sure Sam is one of the kindest people he's met. And perhaps, from Sam's sphere, that is normal. It happens. It does not happen to him, nor to anyone, from the Continent. Not often. Not without something given in exchange.

Jaskier smiles to himself, and it's goofy and curled from drink. He snorts.]

Yes, yes. You're embarrassing me. Now, help me in, or I'm liable to fall asleep at your doorway.

yes!!! they get to have a v nice night of jaskier spoiling. c:

[ only wants to feel like what, is where sam is trying to explore - what jaskier wants, rather than sam. he takes what he can and uses it to his advantage, watches jaskier's smile curl despite what sam had seen so far as more complicated, more uncertain expressions.

he has an idea of where the night will lead - of cooking something easy, of spoiling jaskier in other ways, in testing to see if the affection and reminders of that might help. sam's going into this with the understanding very little of the details, but able to at least understand the shape.

he pulls away only enough to reach for the door, laughing just a bit at the prospect. ]

No no - no sleeping. The night's just begun.
