Kaiju Preservation x Farscape Phoebe didn’t intend to trap her broken family on board an endangered behemoth on route to its nursery world, but could their journey be the catalyst for getting her pining (yet clueless) parents back together? #Questpit #AG #SF #A

A STUDY IN DROWNING X GILMORE GIRLS Atticus moved to Havenvale so he could attend the most prestigious knighthood academy in the kingdom, but there's a rose-scented ghost haunting his manor, & he's learning it's hard to focus while falling in love...👻🖤 #AG #YA #F #RF #QuestPit
A HAUNTING TO HOLD Ghost Romance 𝙷̶𝚒̶𝚜̶ ̶𝙵̶𝚒̶𝚛̶𝚜̶𝚝̶ His Forever Cozy Fantasy Town Magical Lantern Festival Star-Spinning Magic Gothic Manor Griffin Riding Knighthood Academy

ALT A HAUNTING TO HOLD Ghost Romance 𝙷̶𝚒̶𝚜̶ ̶𝙵̶𝚒̶𝚛̶𝚜̶𝚝̶ His Forever Cozy Fantasy Town Magical Lantern Festival Star-Spinning Magic Gothic Manor Griffin Riding Knighthood Academy

THE PITCH COZY YA FANTASY 89,000 WORDS After fleeing from his war-ravaged hometown, a timid boy enrolls in an elite knighthood academy while falling for the ghost haunting his rose-scented manor; but when enemy knights invade his cozy new town during a festival that allows the dead to live for a single night, he must learn how to rally his courage before the girl he loves is lost forever.

CHAPTER ONE My ghost never hides in the shadows. When the afternoon burns brightest, I’ll catch her silhouette in the sunshine. When night steals the sky I glimpse delicate blue eyes peeking out behind moonbeam curtains. It’s been five weeks since we've moved in, yet I've only ever found her in the light. “She’s not your ghost,” reminds Olive. “I can see her, too!” But my sister’s claim rattles out like a lie. Looking at her now, she’s scrunching her face up, squinting real tight, yet her eyes never seem to find the shimmering girl that runs through Rosefall Manor. Not like mine do.

Kaiju Preservation Society x Farscape An endangered space dragon could lose her clutch unless neurodivergent marine biologist Remy, the secretive ex she’s “over”, and their tween daughter, Phoebe, can work together and guide the behemoth to her nursery world. #QuestPit #AG #A #SF
A collage for Phoebe and the Space Dragon. Pictures are a man's back, hands touching in a heart, a woman's back, an urchin, a view from space, a brunette child, a tardigrade, a kelp forest, a grow tower, slime mold, a seahorse, and a chambered nautilus. Text: "For Remy, the only thing scarier than space would be falling back in love with the man who broke her heart", "People were people, even if they were aliens".

I love the phrase "bear with me" because it can either mean "be patient" or "the zoo heist was a success"
