    While being pursued by a monster the likes of which they’ve never seen, Geralt, Ciri, and Jaskier attempt to escape into another universe. When the portal collapses with Jaskier still in it, he’s thrown off course and someplace that looks similar to home, but is just a little to the left of normal. Now, Geralt and Ciri must travel the multiverse to find him, before the monster catches up to them and devours them all.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Probably the first fic in this fandom that actually managed to make me stare at a wall for half an hour; I've read a fair few fic retellings of the destruction of the Ring but I will freely admit that this is the first in which I forgot to care about the actual events of LOTR. Absolutely brilliant.

    Summary

    Jon had searched, at first. He’d scoured every remote corner of the internet, feeling for all the world like Martin falling through that basement window, only ever to resurface empty handed. Then he’d moved on to libraries, public records, museums, and archives. He’d searched.

    But this is not his London, it's been five years, and the part of him that had felt cinched to the Eye like a fish hook through flesh is scarred over like the wound in his chest. The Knowing is gone. Some days Jon still feels like a junkie, hands clammy as he fumbles to light his cigarette at dawn, just as desperate for the fizzing static of Knowledge as if he’d been caught with a needle in his arm.

    There’s nothing here of that world they’d left behind, except Jon, and his scars, and he thinks one day as he butters toast with sweaty palms that he should probably start carving himself as much of a space here as he dares. He’s never had to try before, to leave a mark, because he’d always rather felt marked, and its absence leaves a hollow feeling under his ribcage.


    “Where you go, I go” turns out to be more complicated in execution than in theory, and good things come to those who wait.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Strange and sweet and lovely; there is beauty in the small things, in white cats and tea with milk and finding things you thought were lost - there's something to this fic that's so hard to find in this fandom, and I adore it.

    Summary

    Admittedly, Jon has been known to make impulsive decisions. Taking a part-time job at the campus library on his last year of university. Going in after dark to check on a book. Putting the lighter in his pocket. Asking out the cute goth who, as far as he knows, narrowly avoided a brush with a Leitner.

    Gerry told himself it was only going to be one date, just to see what it was like. How was he supposed to know he'd get attached?

    Adorable and PERFECTLY in-character, and again, it's not that long but it really feels like it's twice as long as it actually is, there's so much worked into this story.

    What is this, if not the quintessential Bill Cipher backstory fic?
