    Summary

    He doesn’t know how long he’s been lying on the riverbank when he wakes up.

    Really, wakes up might be a bit of a misnomer; a better way to phrase it might be jerks out of his own death rattle.

    Aiden survives Jad's attack, and makes his way back to Lambert.

    Summary

    He almost doesn’t pick up the call when his mobile starts ringing in the dead of night. Well, that’s not quite true.

    The first time it rings he doesn’t pick up.

    The second time, he grabs at it blindly, head still buried deep under the duvet, and forwards the call straight to his voicemail without even looking.

    The third time, it registers in his brain that maybe, just maybe, there’s a reason why the caller isn’t giving up and, really, he should answer that.

    Family has their back, always.

    Summary

    Geralt wondered if blood could actually freeze in one's veins – for that was exactly how he felt at that moment.

    "That man is dead," he countered. "You can't be Aiden, not Lambert's friend. Because Lambert, who is also my friend, my brother even, believes that you are dead. And he is not fine with that fact. He wanted me to help him track down your killers. He wanted me to help him kill those people without asking questions. All because he thinks you're dead."

    Geralt had continued to raise his voice with each of his words, adding more emphasis to them while his body had tensed so much that he almost screamed at the end, yet through clenched teeth.

    Summary

    "Lambert looked like hell. Dark circles under his eyes, his skin a sallow color. Twitchier than normal, but frighteningly focused. Geralt watched, unsettled, as his brother quickly escalated what should have been a simple conversation with Lund to an all out fight. He watched as he screamed, seemingly unhinged, at the man before chasing him into a nearby building. Geralt sighed with resignation as the remainder of the guards surrounded him with jeers and malice in their eyes."

    In which Lambert grieves for his best friend the only way he knows how and Geralt helps and a whole bunch of people die.

    They are both shocked at the end result.

    Summary

    What's the worst part about being a witcher? If you ask Lambert, it's not the road dirt, the insults he hears behind his back or the monster guts he ends up covered in several times a week.
    The worst part, according to him, is that he never chose this life in the first place.
    Not saying he would have made better decisions but, you know. He wishes he could have had at least the liberty to fuck up in a more spectacular way.
