Queer Fantasy Books Bracket: Round 1
Book summaries and submitted endorsements below:
The Last Binding trilogy (A Marvellous Light, A Restless Truth, A Power Unbound) by Freya Marske
Endorsement from submitter: A trilogy of books set in a magical Edwardian England, the Last Binding series focuses on three queer couples who come together in order to solve a conspiracy threatening all magic. It's a masterful blending of fantasy, historical fiction, and romance, with a splash of mystery and Wodehousian romp. Expect magical manor house parties with beautiful wallpaper, as well as explorations of power, trust, and what we owe the land.
The prose is absolutely gorgeous and evocative. The characters and their emotional arcs form the beating heart of the story, intertwined with beautifully crafted romance. The worldbuilding feels organic and deeply rooted within this hidden magical society. These books are thoughtful, tender, scorching, and fun all at once.
Robin Blyth has more than enough bother in his life. He's struggling to be a good older brother, a responsible employer, and the harried baronet of a seat gutted by his late parents' excesses. When an administrative mistake sees him named the civil service liaison to a hidden magical society, he discovers what's been operating beneath the unextraordinary reality he's always known. Now Robin must contend with the beauty and danger of magic, an excruciating deadly curse, and the alarming visions of the future that come with it—not to mention Edwin Courcey, his cold and prickly counterpart in the magical bureaucracy, who clearly wishes Robin were anyone and anywhere else. Robin's predecessor has disappeared, and the mystery of what happened to him reveals unsettling truths about the very oldest stories they've been told about the land they live on and what binds it. Thrown together and facing unexpected dangers, Robin and Edwin discover a plot that threatens every magician in the British Isles—and a secret that more than one person has already died to keep. Fantasy, historical fiction, romance, adult, magic, Edwardian, series
The Witch Boy series (The Witch Boy, The Hidden Magic, The Midwinter Witch) by Molly Knox Ostertag
In thirteen-year-old Aster's family, all the girls are raised to be witches, while boys grow up to be shapeshifters. Anyone who dares cross those lines is exiled. Unfortunately for Aster, he still hasn't shifted . . . and he's still fascinated by witchery, no matter how forbidden it might be. When a mysterious danger threatens the other boys, Aster knows he can help -- as a witch. It will take the encouragement of a new friend, the non-magical and non-conforming Charlie, to convince Aster to try practicing his skills. And it will require even more courage to save his family . . . and be truly himself. Graphic novel, middle grade, young adult, fantasy, series

The Sages ✨ Hidden World: Magic Realm
˚₊· Morgyn Ember, L. Faba & Cael Reyes ⤷ play as the Sages mod !

I portrayed the younger versions of the sages, among them Cael Reyes, Ethren Reyes' nephew. Cael held a position as one of the sages until his untimely passing, whereupon Simeon Silversweater seamlessly stepped into his place. But, well... I'll always be stuck in this era (>•̀)

Prompt 81
Danny blinked at the small children Ellie was holding the hand of, looking quite proud of herself. The small children- between ten and twelve so somewhere similar to Ellie’s age- who both practically stank of magic and Gods.
He took a deep breath, pinching the bridge of his nose even as Dan cackled while opening the door more to let them inside. “Alright, what’s your name, kids?”
“B-billy…um, Billy Batson...” “‘m Percy! Percy Jackson.”
“Nice to meet you two- any idea where in your family you have a god or two, because one of you definitely smells like Zeus and I’m pretty sure Poseidon and I am not dealing with either of my half-brothers.”
#prompts#dcxdp#dpxpj#percy jackson#percy jackon and the olympians#billy batson#Danny was adopted by Clockwork who is the origin behind Kronos#Oh they're both orphans? No one to take care of them?#Goddamnit Clockwork you made sure Ellie found them didn't you#Liminals are hidden from monsters thanks to feeling like them & the dead#CW: If they won't take care of their kids then I'll give the lil demigods to my favorite son :)#The JL finding out Billy is a child: You need a guardian- how could we let this happen#Billy: Actually my older sister has looked 12 for the last 100 years and my younger brother looks 20 so that's very human-ist of you#Percy peering out at some camp people who are trying to see if he's home: MA There's some weird ass cats outside!#Percy: Am I allowed to throw the pool at them 'cause they aren't taking no for an answer#Danny teaching the kids how to use powers: Alright and now we're going to your other dad and moms to learn magic#Danny: And how to shoot a gun in Val's case because I will forget gun safety#Everlasting Quartet#Phantastic Four#“Hey Marvel how do you know that info about Dr Fate he looks so pissed??”#“Oh one of my parents know him and they don't get along so now we always take the chance to call him a lil Bitch but politely”#Percy: Billy if you can summon lightning and I can control water can we combine them#Billy: One way to find out- hey Daaaaan#Camp people trying to find Percy: Wtf wtf wtf#The pantheon: WHAT DO YOU MEAN KRONOS HAD ANOTHER CHILD?!

Odd couple <3
#I MAY HAVE GOTTEN A LITTLE SILLY WITH DISCORDS DESIGN#like his original design makes sense because its described as mostly pony with a bunch of other things thrown in. cause yknow chaos#and I dont have a problem with it but I wanted to try something else#mostly riffing off of daycare attendent and the collector. but I like the idea of his colors mismatching when using magic#like the dark blue spots become orange and vice versa. it looked really cool in my head#fluttershys bat design partly inspired by the Honduran white bat and ghost bats#I like the idea that they turn her back but she still has bat wings hidden under her feathers. makes her a quiet flyer shrugs#and I have never ever seen a single drawing of flutterbat with a bat nose and its a crime#also they r very cute to me. I think their ship is very sweet#me and the bad bitch I pulled by being autistic etc etc#myart#doodles#mlp#my little pony#fluttershy#mlp fluttershy#mlp discord#fluttercord#mlp redesign#turns out I have a knack for drawing ponies 🧍

Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance - Traverse Town
#kingdom hearts dream drop distance#khddd#traverse town#scenery#my gif#trying my hand at giffing the worlds of this game despite the lack of a first person view (something i'm very upset about)#so i have to obtain and edit these shots in a very awkward manner#all while constantly being shoved around by my dream eaters#i'm so serious when i say making this set was really really frustrating lol#i can't find a free roaming camera mod or anything else that would be helpful for me#but i'll keep at it because i love looking at still shots of video game environments#and being able to share it with other people who enjoy it too#ANYWAYS traverse town is so beautiful in this game they added so many gorgeous areas with pretty glowing lights#i like the wacky whimsical mail room too and how there's this entire secret workshop hidden beneath that weird mailbox haha#the world really does feel magical and dreamy especially with its updated music#just realized the stars in the first gif are moving which is strange

very good friends who have absolutely nothing going on except their deep platonic relationship that has everyone in the room never question if they're dating :)
#“oh i thought you and ___ were like 🤞 you know?”#maffhew wearing the thickest rayban frames like its 2012 again and the hipster nerd subculture has cropped up again#literally have a frame of those exact glasses on my shelf right now from middleschool#she is the protagonist in a dcom where her beauty is hidden behind her glasses until she magically takes them off and shes so beautiful#too late in the timeline but very zendaya in the poster for frenemies vibes#but also this has much the homoeroticism as 2nd gen kpop boybands going out to eat#is that too niche for these parts#ive seen several pictures exactly like this in my heyday i went huh#its the lighting and the style of glasses that are fucking me up

Nestled within the cozy hollow of a tree, a family of mushrooms basks in the subtle light. It's like a secret garden, uncovered in the heart of the woods.

Know of any Radioapple fics where Lucifer starts out as the jerk/dick in the relationship?
Unfortunately, I don’t have any radioapple fics where Lucifer starts out as the jerk 😔 which is a huge fucking shame.
I did recently go through the Hazbin tag on AO3 and saved a TON of fics that caught my eye, so maybe one of those will have it. I’ll keep you posted 👉👉
Not to self-promote but my radioapple series “Just Kiss Already” kind of starts out with Lucifer being a jerk in the beginning. It’s intermingled with him slowly developing feelings for Alastor and feeling obligated to help him for helping Charlie, but his bitchy side REALLY shows itself in the fourth installment “Chaggie’s Totally Legitimate Dating 101 Crash Course.”
I enjoy Lucifer and Alastor being mean to each other, but part of Lucifer’s character arc is going to focus on his aversion to sinners and how he thinks of them (in light of his growing feels gs to Alastor, a sinner who definitely earned his place in Hell) so he’s still going to have a lot jerky moments.
#“it really is a shame there aren’t any fics with Lucifer starting out as the jerky one#there might one out there!#but I have yet to stumble across it#it’s just a fun avenue to explore#I mean#COME ON#this is the guy who signed off on the Exterminations#he signed off on a yearly genocide of his subjects#he has not hidden his aversion or discomfort around sinners#and you can’t tell me if magically went away after one song#PLEASE I NEED MORE FICS OF LUCIFER BEING A BITCH ASS JERK#I NEED A FIC WHERE HE GETS CONSQUENCES FOR HIS ACTIONS#but noooo#it’s usually Alastor who’s the jerk#and everyone likes Lucifer because he’s cute and awkward 🙄#I like cute and awkward Lucifer just fine#but if he’s not an asshole at LEAST once#siiiiigh#it’s such a missed opportunity#asks#anon#anonymous#hazbin hotel#hazbin alastor#lucifer morningstar#appleradio#radioapple#hazbin hotel lucifer
