Summary
Geralt daemon’s problem had tormented Jaskier since their first meeting. Not because that absence made him doubt Geralt’s humanity, of course. There was too much pain in Geralt’s eyes, too much determination to help even those who spat in his face. He was absolutely, hopelessly human. Moreover, Jaskier had met many humans with a daemon who still behaved like monsters. The question still bothered him.
Everyone had a daemon, even sorceresses and mages who could stay half a continent away from them, even elves with their colourful birds that made Jaskier die of envy, even dwarves with their moles and other underground creatures who helped them to see in the dark. Geralt had no daemon by his side. No one ever saw a witcher’s daemon. Which made them monsters, by popular opinion.
Jaskier wanted so badly to ask, but never dare. The day he would, Geralt would leave him in the middle of nowhere. That was a fact. At least, Jaskier thought he would. Geis didn’t.

Summary
'Oh, Niki Lauda? He's just some little Austrian fellow with a creepy-crawly insect dæmon. If you've ever seen the man, I think you'd agree it's quite the fitting form.'
Niki could say a lot in response to that quote now fed back to him; that James' own dæmon is some puffed up, squawking lorikeet whose colours are clearly compensatory. 'Centipedes are myriapods,' is what he instead responds with, 'which are not considered part of the insect class.'
It's true; they're not. Nevertheless, it seems to win him no favours.

Summary
Carla named Eren’s daemon, Kai.
Kai was the name of a God from old mythology - from books that were long gone by now, to her husband’s knowledge anyway.
Carla loved Kai.
She loved Kai even when Grisha forbade the daemon to speak in front of anyone but them.

Summary
“Woah, woah,” says Ed, “calm down, man, you’re gonna burst a stitch.”
“I—sorry, just, have you—have you seen a, a butterfly? Mostly blue? I—” and he’s stuttering, in front of Ed, who he wants to impress even though he doesn’t really know why, how embarrassing, but the terror’s there like a vise around his heart and he doesn’t want to think about how Ed will probably be, at best, disgusted if he finds out, god, Stede hopes that Tel is fine, hopes he’s still mazarine blue—
“Ah,” Ed says, and looks, suddenly, a little sheepish. “This little gal?” He picks up a small bowl from the floor, holding it up to Stede. “One of your crew found her collapsed on your bed when we were bringing you in—picked her up and put her in the bowl so she wouldn’t get crushed. I’ve been watching over the both of you the past few days.”

Summary
To have a mystical creature for a daemon is almost unheard of, but to have a nine-tailed fox for a daemon guarantees attention everywhere you go. And not always the good kind of attention, as Jing Jing well knows.

Summary
Witchers' dæmons keep the ability to shift, if they desire to do so. Yet, even with their soul in display, people are scared of them, and the discrimination stands as strong as if they didn't have a visual proof of them not being monsters.
Bards usually have dæmons that match their profession: different kinds of songbirds were the most common, but a raccoon or a squirrel were also to be seen, helping their human on their craft.
Dæmon's can tell you a lot about the human they are bound to, but that often is just a piece of the person. There's also the belief of dæmon compatibility, for any kind of relationship.
So what happens when a Witcher and a Bard, whose dæmons forms seem to clash against each-other, meet and start growing what would be expected to be an unlikely...association?
[Title from track number 7 in "The Horror and the Wild" by The Amazing Devil - seriously guys, check that masterpiece of a band]

Eames was different. He always had been, and he knew he probably always would be. But, just maybe, different didn't have to mean bad.

Summary
Will Graham, a forensic daemonologist who teaches at the FBI's training academy, is asked to consult on a case concerning the disappearance of eight girls with irregular daemons. When the case expands to include Dr. Hannibal Lecter as his new psychiatrist and sounding board, they find themselves both keeping their secrets close to their chests. But how long can they go before something slips?
Or: the daemon/omegaverse fusion AU combo platter that probably only I ever asked for.

Summary
"During family meetings a few of his married older cousins used to talk about soulmates and about daemons being destined for one another. It is all that romantic stuff Taehyung wanted to believe in since he was a child.
Now though, he is not so sure about any of that anymore.
He is not sure about the old belief that a person’s daemon is not actually the manifestation of their own soul but that of their soulmate."

Summary
(slide #146) Daemon AU: Bilbo Baggins and his cat daemon wait for an injured Thorin and his direwolf to wake after The battle of five armies. As they wait, Bilbo wrestles with his feelings and tells the story of his journey, leaving the shire to seeking a lost kingdom only to fall for its king along the way. With events from before and during the battle between them, the tale seems done, but even the Shire's most esteemed writer sometimes needs a little help to bring the story to a satisfying conclusion.

Summary
Living with Trolls was weird, Dave decided.
It wasn't the lack of Dæmons, no, he'd kinda expected that from his talks with Terezi and though it was slightly shocking to actually see them walk alone with nobody to talk to, he wasn't actually surprised. It was the fact they didn't care about what forms the dæmons took.

Le daemon du sorceleur by Eilisande for Jainas

Tags
Summary
Les sorceleurs sont des monstres. La meilleure preuve de cette affirmation, c'est qu'il est bien connu qu'ils n'ont pas de daemons. Malgré cette horrible absence, Jaskier ne peut s'empêcher de suivre et d'aimer Geralt. Mais jamais, jamais il n'osera lui demander ce qu'il en est, ni même à penser trop fort au problème. Mais il s'y retrouve quand même confronté et forcé de s'interroger sur l'affirmation de Geralt comme quoi il n'est pas humain.

Summary
A series of short stories set in a world where your soul walks by your side.
Some chapters take place during Eyes of Heaven, because I'm a sucker for characters from different parts interacting, especially the extended Joestar family. I'll be sure to note which ones.

Summary
As the townspeople shrank back, as they made signs to ward off evil and pulled children and daemons back out of the way, Jaskier had laughed, too loud and forced, and waltzed right into Geralt's space without a moment's hesitation. He had ignored the viscera clumping his hair, the black veins streaking from his eyes, the stench of sweat and death that followed him, and had cupped Geralt's face in his hands. Silent and quivering, Geralt had let Jaskier tilt his head this way and that, had let him run a careful thumb through the blood along his hairline, and had even managed to grunt in the negative when asked if any of the blood was his. Geralt had been pliable, easy to maneuver away from fearful, suspicious stares.
Like this, Geralt looked poised to bolt and he didn't look like he would much care what was in his way.

Summary
"Garou shoved some fries in his mouth as he watched the hero nibble on some chicken like he was the bird and his Dae the human, said owl was watching him in return with overly large yellow eyes that unnerved him. He swallowed his food and considered how to put his words together to get the answers he wanted.
'What was the association's plans if they had caught us last night?' Kali demanded, her low rumbling voice stabbing through the silence with a force that Garou was familiar with, the hero however tensed up. Blue eyes narrowed and the owl puffed up."
Edit 12/07/2022:
This Fic is on hold as it will be written as I have found bad pacing and plot issues I do not believe I can fix with the next chapters and so I intend to bring this fic back much better than before as this is a story I'm determined to tell.Series
