geraskefer what we do in the shadows au but it’s really angsty for some reason: a thread
geralt’s vampire and he’s been one for centuries. he comes from a long line of vampire warriors. people who were throughly selected for their physical traits. the best fighters and leaders. and he hates that. he hates what he is. he hates that this life was inflicted upon him.
he meets jaskier in the early 18th century england and they become a pair of very unlikely friends. jaskier is a noble. a viscount. and it goes basically the same as we all know it. jaskier wouldn’t stop following geralt until he grew fond of the bastard.
and yeah maybe geralt wanted to eat him at the beginning. maybe a bit but it’s also been so long since someone took an interest in him. wanted to talk to him. have a normal conversation abound mundane stuff like the weather and not only his scars and his past.
and jaskier knows geralt isn’t human he knows there’s a dark twisted thing in him but he’s not scared by it. not one bit. jaskier is the first thing that comes close to a friend geralt had in over three hundred years. the human asks geralt once what’s it like to be a vampire
and if there’s a chance he could transform him into one one day but geralt is enraged by that question. he would never wish what happened to him upon anyone. especially someone he cares about.
he wants jaskier to form a family and grow old with someone he loves and not live in the shadows. not have a life full of pain and blood.
they part ways during winter. geralt goes back to his old family home in the north. and one very cold winter jaskier meets yennefer. yennefer is different than geralt. she’s proud of who she is and isn’t afraid to use her power.
at first yennefer picks jaskier as her prey but before the blood draining she decides to have some fun and beds the viscount. she’s a bit fascinated by him. by the way his heart doesn’t race even a bit faster at the sight of her fangs.
by the way his fingers don’t flinch when he touches her cold flesh.
and well she decides to let him run around this mortal world a bit longer. concludes she’ll eat him the next time they cross paths. and the next time turns into next and the next one into next.

they have a love affair that lasts for about two months. because jaskier gets terribly sick. he’s infected by the plague that’s been going around for years.
and yennefer tells herself that its purely because she’s selfish. she doesn’t care about the human. she just wants to use him a bit more. and so she bites him. and turns him into a bloodthirsty creature of the night.
next spring gerlat arrives in england to the news that viscount julian has died.
the next time geralt sees /him/ he thinks he’s seeing things. that he’s lost his mind. and it isn’t until he feels jaskier’s body pressed tight against him, feels his hair under his own fingers, the faint beating of his heart agains his ribcage he believes its real.
and at first he’s furious with them because how could they? how could she done this to his- his friend? how could /he/ fraternize with a strange vampire? but at the same time jaskier is alive and he’s with him and he’s gonna be with him forever and doesn’t that sound nice?
the three of them live in a huge house with a big garden at the end of the street and somewhere along they find happiness in each other.
and then one day a young ashen haired werewolf stumbles upon their doorstep. end thread
