A pack of thieves ransack a witch's home, stealing her deck of tarot cards. Unbeknownst to them, these tarot cards hold the most infamous criminals ever known. And little do they know what they've unleashed onto the world when these prisoners escape their binds to the cards and scatter across the stars. It'll take a powerful kind of magic and a special kind of witch to find them. Cage is NOT that witch. In fact, she's not exactly a witch at all. She's a Lavender and lives in a world where women are the only ones with magic. With flowers that grow in amongst her curly hair, Cage is dragged into the hunt for the prisoners and must travel across the cosmos with a band of unlikely heroes. A witch of the winds and another of the stars. A boy who has magic when he shouldn't and another with the sun in his blood. Cage learns that the lines between heroes and villains can blur on their journey to stopping something far more evil than any of them could have ever imagined.

virtues are for fools, darling.

❛THEY WOULD TELL YOU OF A KING WHO STOLE ME HELPLESS FROM MY SUNSHINE GARDEN.❜ They won't tell you about the woman who came to him sublime, lily eyes and lily lips. A king does not ask permission from his prize, but she, oh she, she knelt, kissing my flower crown fingertips, and laid a kingdom at my feet. A Hades and Persephone retelling. ❛AND WHEN I PLACED MY DREAD HEART IN HIS PALM; HE CALLED IT A KEY AND ME A QUEEN.❜ rubyruins | all rights reserved ©

Harvey Ryerson needs one more class to complete his gen-ed credit requirements. Somehow, he finds himself in a history class (Women in Antiquity, what does that even mean?) with the same TA he popped a boner for and blatantly flirted with last semester. Thing is, she hates him. So after being rejected once, twice, too many times to count-what better way to woo Sky Walker than to impress her with supposedly funny Star Wars puns and references? cover by @JakArmstrong

The adventures of the boy destined to die and the boy fated to kill him ©achillics

Imogen Zezinger did not get swept up in a tornado. She did not fly out of a window or climb through a wardrobe... or fall down a rabbit hole. She simply took a wrong turn. When a confusing drive through the Italian countryside leads Zez into a land called Tol Tava, she knows that her adventure has begun. The world she has stumbled across is filled with the beauty of an everlasting night, hills that stretch towards the heavens, prisons buried beneath the earth, and an overgrown manor of serpents. She is taken into the home of the Viper, a beautiful woman who proclaims that Zez is the answer to a bitter blood feud. So, Zez shrugs and accepts this strange new destiny. In a bright yellow Fiat, with an alluring queen of snakes, Imogen Zezinger takes off through the hills of Tol Tava. A fantastic journey stretches before her and she may play hero, learn that things are never what they seem, and embark on the adventure of a lifetime. (This story is loosely based on Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.) Cover by @anonymousmlpfan
