Summary
Just outside a small town up near a chilly mountain range, lies a large black manor, home to a cruel Lord with a dark secret. The town lives with a strict set of rules that keeps them safe, and avoid the bad tempered Lord's wrath as much as they can. One day a traveling troupe of performers comes to town, and everything is thrown into a deadly, intense, and passionate disarray when the Firebird meets the Beast.
A retelling of Beauty and the Beast with a pairing I probably am the only one in existence to ship. I've had this idea for literal years.

Summary
“I don’t know any more than you do,” Riz protests. “What… what were the exact words the witch used? When she cursed Adaine?”
Fabian clears his throat. “‘May your blood run as cold as your heart.’ And then she screamed really loud as she died but I don’t think that was part of the curse.”
“Well, apparently I’ve got a cold fucking heart,” Adaine says, shivering, as ice crystals begin to flutter from her skin and collect on the shiny stone ground beneath her feet. “I didn’t think it was this cold, though.” She frowns and Riz can see that she really is upset, despite her flippant tone. He supposes he would be, too, if he learned, against his will, that he was so cold-hearted.

or: After being cursed by a witch, Adaine wonders what the curse says about her.

They embark on an adventure to cure him from his curse and help him regain his crown in a wild fairytale medley.Like any Rookanis story of mine, this one sticks to certain central elements of Lucanis personal story.
There will be romance and humor and 4th wall breaks and elements of horror (because fairytales are weird like that). Inspirations include Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle), Catherynne Valente (The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of her own Making) and Ursula Vernon/T. Kingfisher (A Sorceress Come to Call). -

Summary
The Princess was supposed to be dead.
Not as in he wished it - so far from that - but it was a fact, a fact the Lioness all but hurled at him, last he managed waywards towards Cintra.
For a decade, the Witcher carried those tidings as blood carried a toxin, and for a decade, he roamed, death clinging to the heels of his boots. War encroached upon the land, famine creeping behind it like a child after its mother.
The Black Hand of the South reached its fingers across the kingdoms, grasping, pulling, tearing. And for a decade, the Witcher did not care, face still unmoving at the horror in front of it.
And the Princess, the Lion Cub, was supposed to be dead.
And yet. -
