Folks I am like on another plane rn and I wish it was drugs but it is Not, but, in the midst of that, I bring to you a new update in the Ongoing Saga Of Keira Learning To Have Human Feelings, Lambert Domesticating His Asshole Tendencies, and Aiden Learning To Clown Again, and after way more of an involved process than I’d like to admit, I named the fic…

An Involved Process https://archiveofourown.org/works/28876890

oh ha i just used that phrase in the previous paragraph hoo boy ok yes i mean to do that.

This chapter, at least, isn’t heartwrenching. I hope. Not that I have any sense of perspective remaining whatsoever.

“Geralt,” Aiden said, and reached over to clasp his hand in greeting.

“You know each other?” Lambert asked.

“We met briefly,” Geralt said. “Years ago. I didn’t know then that you knew him.”

“I might not’ve yet,” Aiden said. “Depends on the year.”

“Don’t recall,” Geralt said, “I just know you look familiar.”

“You didn’t fuck, did you?” Lambert asked warily.

Ciri threw her head back at that and really laughed, like she hadn’t in ages. “That would just be the perfect capper to all of this,” she said.

Aiden quirked his eyebrows suggestively at Geralt, and Geralt laughed too. “If only we’d thought to get our stories straight before this,” he said.

“Oh, Lambert,” Aiden said, in exaggerated tones, “of course I never– I have never seen this person before in my life, let alone had a sordid encounter with him out back of a tavern in Novigrad thirty-five years ago.”

“Wait,” Geralt said, frowning, “was that you?” but he wasn’t a fantastic actor and Ciri could make out the mischievous twinkle in his eye.

“Fuck you,” Lambert howled, laughing, and punched Geralt, and then they embraced rather violently and then Lambert hauled him inside and they all went into the house. (Your picture was not posted)
