🔮 FRACTURED MAGIC: a gothic fantasy with epic stakes

🔎 CASE FILES OF SHERIDAN BELL: a series of mysteries set in a world with magic & sídhe
An image titled "Fractured Magic, a queer fantasy web serial by em rowene." The image features an elven man in a dark coat standing in a city at night, holding a lantern aloft and looking suspiciously over his shoulder. "A penny dreadful for the modern reader! A thrilling tale for the masses! Read about a fallen hero's hunt for revenge and a bitter prince's quest to rescue his kidnapped king. These two estranged friends, almost - lovers are racing against Time and dead gods to get what they want. Will they make up and work together before it's too late?" A book cover titled "Sheridan Bell and the Confession of a Medium". It's an orange cover with a field of wheat in the background. A silver-haired sídhe man stands in the foreground, looking thoughtfully back at the viewer After Detective Bell's childhood friend Renna narrowly escapes death twice in one night, he suspects those were more than mere accidents—especially when a medium warns that ghosts cling to Renna, whispering for her to join them. But finding the culprit requires delving into Renna's past, and the young widow herself is hardly forthcoming with answers. The answer, Detective Bell believes, lies buried with Renna's late husband. Can he continue to dig, knowing he's unearthing secrets his dear friend wants hidden? Should what's dead truly stay dead?

FRIEREN x SILVER CHAIR

When Helio is killed by the deep mage Riptide, he inexplicably wakes miles away, in the body of a young man named Hadley. As he lays low, pretending to be this spoiled lord's son, he learns about himself through Hadley—and through Riptide.

#bluepit📖 #A #F #Q #LGBT
A mockup cover of a book titled "Sunfall." Two characters stand at the foreground. The first, a dark haired young man with an encouraging smile, is holding his hand out to the other. The second, a strawberry blond young man with a considering expression, is hesitatingly taking it. Behind them is an orange-gold background with an eclipsed sun hanging high above them. A man in a suit hovers in front of the sun, magic burning in his hands. Orange text on a black background. It's the text of the poem "A Question" by Robert Frost. "A voice once said, Look me in the stars / and tell me truly, men of earth, / If all the soul-and-body scars / Were not too much to pay for birth."

Helio's trained all his life to kill Riptide, but Riptide kills him first.

When he's given a miraculous second chance, a soft-spoken soldier named Soma offers to help stop the Deep—but the closer Helio gets to Soma, the more he fears who he'll find behind Riptide's mask.

Second Harvest is one of the suppliers for Joyce Uptown Foodshelf (joyceuptownfoodshelf.org), who I volunteer with. Joyce is referring shoppers to a local church making deliveries to those who can't leave their homes. Whoever you donate money or time to in the chain, they're helping South Mpls.

if you want to know what it is like in minneapolis, I don’t even have to scroll on facebook to find a horror story. it’s basically my whole feed.

everyone i know in minneapolis is seeing ICE take people—at gas stations, taquerias, bus stops, schools. just snatching random people.
#ICE is LITERALLY in every corner of the Twin Cities right now. In case you don't know, here are the areas with the confirmed sightings as of 1/9/26 at 11:00pm: - Apple Valley/Burnsville/Eagan - Richfield/Bloomington - Midway/Frogtown - Como/Dale - East side/Maplewood - North Minneapolis - Shoreview Arden Hills - Blaine - Columbia Heights - Shakopee/Prior Lake - Inver Grove Heights - West St. Paul - South Saint Paul - Lakeville - Brooklyn Park/Brooklyn Center PLEASE stay safe! They are detaining and harassing US citizens so if you can help it, STAY HOME! ICE is currently raiding an apartment complex near my home in Savage. Lots of children screaming. This is completely unnecessary. I'm certain these people being terrorized are hard working, law abiding individuals. &S!#% &S!#% My brother's construction site was raided by ICE this morning and 6 people were taken (they came after he left to a new site so he didn't get taken, but some of the crew did). MN companies need to do a better job at protecting their employees. They know ICE is present visibily in the Twin Cities so they need to not send their employees to work until ICE ain't roaming the streets!! &$!#% &S!#% Ice is on 24th right by the resource center just started beating on someone for being under a blanket @highlight And if you question me saying this I witnessed it with my own eyes! They headed Southeast. White Jeep wagoneer grayish blue I think Toyota minivan
