Over the Edge of the Precipice

Summary:

Geralt, usually so careful with his bard, pushes him just a bit too far after a terrifying encounter with a Leshen.

Whumptober Day 26: If You Thought Head Trauma Was Bad...

Notes:

In Aftercare Geralt mentioned accidentally taking things too far and injuring Dandelion....

Ya'll wanted it, so here you go. Two sad Bois having FEELINGS.

It's a multi-chapter fic but many of the chapters are short for pacing purposes and DRAMA (Dandelion would approve).

------------------

I’ve decided to use this for day 26 of Whumptober, since Geralt’s drugged state seems to fit in nicely with the prompt.

No 26. IF YOU THOUGHT THE HEAD TRAUMA WAS BAD…
Migraine | Concussion | Blindness

Chapter Text

Crack.

Dandelion whimpered and his shoulders shivered. If he could speak, Geralt imagined he’d be swearing up a storm. But since they were in an inn, Geralt had opted to gag him before taking his belt to him.

Rain lashed the window outside and Geralt ran a hand through his hair. The after effects of his potions were still coursing through his veins, leaving him jumpy and irritable. Ordinarily he’d have waited for it to wear off before making any rash decisions but Dandelion-

“Stupid bard.”

Notes:

I write Geralt as being very careful with Dandelion, making sure to never push him too far, checking in on him. But I figured that all had to come from somewhere.

So this is earlier in their relationship, before Geralt really realized how much more delicate Dandelion is than, say, a Witcher.
