Of Shadows and Darkness
Tristan steals shadows to make familiars out of them. It was all completely harmless until he stole the shadow from a demon, effectively stripping away all of their powers. Now Gregor is stranded in a dimension not his own without magic. Tristan agrees to help him get home, the least he could do because it was mostly his fault (and totally not because he has a crush on Gregor, or because of Gregor's compulsion magic or because he kissed him.) But then everything goes wrong when they get attacked by fire elementals who work for the demon Earl Alfred of Aleman who is also after Gregor's magic. The elemental manages to steal the shadow and now Gregor and Tristan must travel through different dimensions to get the shadow back and slip the Earl and his henchmen in the process.Complete

Fear No More
Victor Mc'Arthur, the last of his kind, was not what anyone expected. Being the last dragon alive, one would expect him to be egotistical. Playing off his status to get anything he wanted. Yet he was none of the stereotypical natures that would accompany the last of any kind. He was a quiet, kind boy who only wanted one thing, Julie Kale. He has always wanted her to be his, but she was a powerful elemental user who wanted an equally powerful partner. No one knew of Victor's status, not even Julie. She friendzones him, and uses him to ensure she is ready for her multitude of dates. One incident broke the last straw Victor held on to. Competing in the annual magic tournament, he intends to win. Winning means that the most powerful witch alive would grant one single wish. A no limit wish. A wish that will be granted. When he reveals himself through the competition, he gains a new reputation. A reputation the popular could be jealous of. When it is time to claim his wish. The wish chosen, shocks the entire magical community. A wish that needs to be granted. A wish that would forever shift the balance of power. A wish that may or may not be the end of Victor himself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Highest: #23 in Adventure (12/11/2017) #30 in Adventure (7/11/2017) #44 in Adventure (20/10/2017)Complete
The Trickster's Test {Prinxiety}
A game. That's what it was, or what it was supposed to be. It's become bigger than that, and they all know it. The royals all participate in the game, unknowingly or not, and they are all strictly aware that one wrong move will lead to their demise. The figurative name of the game is lying and deception. Cheating is practically a requirement; those who play fair never win. Virgil Lancaster remained blissfully unaware of this game's existence until the night of the Sunstrix Gala. Will he become yet another victim of the Trickster's Test, or will his new knight keep him from losing himself? **I do not own the characters of Sanders Sides nor the art used for the cover** **TW (individual triggers provided in chapters except swearing): Lil bit of violence, lil bit of alcohol (no bad actions associated with it just general drinking, not main characters), mentions of death/grieving, some toxic family stuff (also not main characters)Complete
