"𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘦, 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘩𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴."＊*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ "𝘋𝘢𝘮𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭, 𝘏𝘰𝘸𝘭." You've been plagued by routine and tormented by duty for most of your life. A gilded cage you've been forced to grow accustomed to. But it wasn't all bad, for your days were filled with laughter and mischief at the hands of your favorite person in the entire world. So imagine the day that your best friend is ripped from your home, taking with him the hope that one day you would travel the world together and live a joyfully purposeful life. And imagine the despair you are subjected to after months of a war ridden country caused by his disappearance, and incompetence in the person in charge of finding him. It is said that misery acquaints a man with strange bedfellows. In this case, misery has forced an impossibly stubborn princess to acquaint herself with a strange, childish, and impossibly infuriating wizard. Howl Jenkins-Pendragon, the subject of an alluring conversation, reignites the fire that was doused at the disappearance of your uncle, the Prince of Kingsbury, and leads you towards a journey that you would soon realize would change your life forever. Would it be for better, or for worse? ✧⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙ ˙ॱ⋅.˳⋆˖⁺‧₊☽◯☾₊‧⁺˖⋆ ˳.⋅ॱ˙ ˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅ ˙✧ slow burn CW: mature content ahead. eventual smut. reader discretion advised. i love howl. i love howl's moving castle. combining elements of both the book and movie. no time loop, no sophie. cover credit: @mashushora on twitter sᴛᴀʀᴛᴇᴅ - 04/05/2026 ᴇɴᴅᴇᴅ - someday
