A Romance Court

House Membership
Benefits

Belonging is earned. Legacy is built.
When you join a House, you don't just attend events — you become part of a living structure inside the Court.

The Beginning

House Initiation

🕯

A ceremonial assignment during Open Court — in person at our Gràcia bookstore or via Instagram Live. Sir Knotsalot presides over each initiation.

Alignment is not chosen. It is revealed.

This is where your legacy begins.
Your House Pack

Marks of Belonging

Upon initiation, you receive your visible marks within the Court.

🎒

Official bag in your House colours. Carried to events, seen across the Court.

House Sticker

Worn, placed, displayed. Your allegiance made visible.

Membership Privileges

What Your House
Grants You

🔐

Priority Event Access

💬

House Channel

A private space for your House — announcements, coordination, internal discussions, and strategy.

📚

Court Library

Access to curated titles within the shared Court Library — stories that circulate inside the community.

🏆

Earn House Points

Earn points through purchases, readings, challenges, and events. Rivalry builds legacy.

🌙

House-Only Gatherings

Exclusive meetups, challenges, and internal House activities throughout the year.

📖

Traveling Book

A single book passed hand to hand between members, building a shared legacy with every reader.

One Story. Many Hands.

The Traveling Book

A single book, passed from member to member. Each reader leaves their mark. When the journey ends, the book retires into the library — and becomes part of a permanent legacy.

🏰

House Traveling Book

Each House carries one Traveling Book at a time, chosen by majority vote of the House Council.

  • Must come from A Romance Court's store collection
  • May be in English or Spanish
  • Reading order determined by the House Council
  • Members pass the book from one to the next
  • Once all members have read it, the book retires

It becomes part of the House's permanent legacy.

👑

Court Traveling Book

In addition to House books, each Court carries one Traveling Book. Courts are genre-based communities that cross House lines:

Romantasy Fantasy Contemporary Young Adult Cliterature Dark LGBTWI+ Sport

Each Court Traveling Book follows the same circulation structure and becomes part of that Court's evolving library once completed.

One story moves through many hands. What remains is legacy.

The Veil Thins

Solstice Realignment

🔄

Changing Houses

Allegiance is not permanent. Twice a year — during the Solstice Parties — the veil is thinner. Members may request realignment during these ceremonies.

Sir Knotsalot decides.

Join a House.
Build something lasting.

Book Your Initiation

Initiations take place during Open Court — in person or live.
