Between Fractures of Light 
Adult Romantic Portal FantasyPITCH

   The desolate world from Augusta’s dreams starts to blur into a chilling reality when a specter of swirling mist and shadows begins haunting her and kidnaps her childhood best friend, Theo. When the encroaching shadows come for her next, Augusta  is rescued by an impossibly familiar stranger with eyes of fire, and together they journey into a world consumed by Darkness, an entity that feeds on despair and rot. There, the shadows hold Theo—and the world—captive.

   As she begins to fall for the man guiding her through the starless land, the line between the two realities starts to fracture. Augusta must face who she truly is and the choice carved into fate long ago: sacrifice the world she’s only just come to understand (along with her best friend) or the love she’s finally found.

Before the Darkness consumes them both.COMPS

 She blinked, and the figure was gone. Or maybe she was just seeing things again. 

   “Theo—” she started, but he wasn’t beside her anymore. “Theo?”

 The movement returned. It grew into the shape of a person and then into something beyond. Long fingers, crooked spine, head warped. Panic rose in her throat. 

   Smell. Sound. Taste. Touch. Sight. Think, Augusta. Think. It’s not real. 
  
 What can you smell? Popcorn. What can you hear? The laughter of children, Christmas music. What can you taste? The cider in hand. What can you touch? The scarf around my neck. What can you see? The shadow in the shape of a person. 

   Augusta froze. 

   It hadn’t gone away. Instead, it only grew larger, more ominous. It rose in the night till it towered over the tents, the moon behind it blocked out by its mass. 
 
  A glimpse of tangled blond curls appeared in her periphery, light against the growing darkness. A hanging light exploded with a pop but no one reacted. Unease clawed at her in

HEARTLESS HUNTER X SLAVIC FOURTH WING 🎭 She, a humble servant posing as Duchess, is his executioner-to-be. 🐉 He, the arrogant Dragon Prince, must save a kingdom from the encroaching Ever-Dark. 🖤 Neither anticipated falling for the one destined to be their undoing. #questpit #NA #R #F #DF #Q
A gothic-style book cover titled "Root and Ruin." Centered is a glowing, cyan-blue dragon coiled into a circle, its scales etched with faint, runic symbols. Golden, gnarled roots extend downward from the dragon like branching veins against the pitch-black background. Text at the top reads "Enemies to Lovers," "Fated Mates," and "Fake Identity," with "An Agent’s Guide" in the top right. Subtitle reads "80k • NA Slavic Romantasy," and the bottom logline says, "She is sent to kill the dragon. Instead, she might become his only salvation."A graphic titled "The Comps" in golden lettering. It displays four book covers arranged in a grid: "Heartless Hunter" by Kristen Ciccarelli, "Fourth Wing" by Rebecca Yarros, "Shadow and Bone" by Leigh Bardugo, and "The Witcher: The Last Wish" by Andrzej Sapkowski.A self-made fantasy illustration showing a halfway transformed, dark-haired man, Prince Konstantin Veliki, with a silver crown and dragon wings. He is carrying a woman, a humble servant Iva, masquerading as a Duchess Zora, in a long, flowing cream-colored gown as they fly through the air. She is his guest but unbeknownst to him, she is plotting to poison him. In the background, a sprawling forest surrounds a magic academy, Kolegium with colorful, traditional Slavic-style onion domes—gold, silver, bronze and green. Each of the domes represents air, water, fire and earth magic respectively. Snippet text at the bottom reads: "Do you always sequester your guests and take flight with them?"A self-made illustration set in the catacombs under the magic academy, Kolegium, featuring classical-style statues on the walls. Iva, in dark armor, rides a bright, light blue-scaled dragon; it is Prince Konstantin Veliki in his dragon form.
They face off against a monstrous, ethereal shadow dragon composed of wispy, black smoke and glowing eyes — this is Konstantin’s fallen father Tibor Veliki. A brilliant golden sphere of light, relic of the Slavic god of light, Belobog, called Spark of Creation, floats on a pedestal between them. Text at the bottom of the snippet reads: "Let us dance, little one," the Shadow Dragon hisses in a dry whisper of the fallen. "A worthy foe," Konstantin responds. We take to the air to meet the darkness. Two gargantuan winged silhouettes hover in the abyss, suspended in a precarious balance. They mirror one another; two sides of the same coin, champions of Belobog and Chernobog.

Run. What a powerful instinct.
Emma Bridge had wanted nothing more than to be with her two siblings in a home that felt safe, but those wishes never came true. With nothing left to lose, Emma runs away from the spotlight of the Hills to a small town across the country, but this new home is anything but the safety she’d been after.

The weight of the world has fallen on her shoulders, and she can’t carry it alone. But with her old name in every police station and her new name on every tongue in town, she’s not sure who she can trust to help carry the burden.What we know:
-Runaway in Hiding
-Fake Identity (turned real identity)
-Mental Health Rep
-Genderfluid and Pan Rep
-Found Family
-90s Small-Town Nostalgia

The text reads: first lines. The shadows had teeth, and they hungered for blood. They shouldn’t exist here, amongst the weathered sandstone of Durham University. They shouldn’t exist at all, outside the confines of Lola’s mind. But the terrible scratching of claws against flagstone wasn’t a figment of her imagination, as she had first thought, strolling arm-in-arm with Sam on their way home from an end-of-exams party. She didn’t notice them straight away, her gaze sliding over the shadows cast by the faculty buildings. She didn’t notice them until they peeled away from the walls, their darkness thicker and more absolute than the others. Even then she pulled her gaze away, dismissing it. Inebriation hung over her like a thin veil, turning the glow of street lamps into a kaleidoscopic sky.

THE OFFICE X GOOD OMENS A satire of both business and the supernatural, Virgil Mora, Hell's Consultant, must restore Heaven's faith in Hell by saving a vampire-run Ohio gas station in just three months to save his job and Lucifer, the angel he's fallen for. #QuestPit #W #A #F #LGBT
A small four image moodboard on an orange background.

The first image is two men in suits, one in black and one in white, holding hands. The next image, a hand holding a red apple with a snake curling around it. The next image, a man in a business suit looking at his shadow, which has horns and a tail. The final image, a zoomed in image of someone holding their hands behind their back with their fingers crossed to indicate they are lying.

In large yellow print are the words "Hell Is Work" below that the words "Virgil Mora burns in hell. It's a pretty good job."

Bree assumes “joining the Dark Goddess" is a lesbian sex club hazing prank—until she kills an evil politician with a gush of menstrual blood. The Goddess has given Bree real power. Her intentions? Murky. Her appetite? Insatiable. Her contract? Binding. #questpit #Q #A #H #S #LF
Mood board in reds and blacks. Images include: woman laying in a bathtub full of blood, a woman crowned under a red moon, a hand dripping with black liquid, and text that reads, After You Make a Pact with the Dark Goddess, There’s No Going Back.
