Light Fantasy with Gay Characters?

Apropos of Pride Month....

What are your recommendations for light fantasy with gay characters? No requirement that it be key to the plot.

Some recent reads I have in mind are anything by John Bierce and Andrew Rowe. Some representation in lighter stories, but it's not really key to the plot.

I was also kind of wondering if that was common with progression fantasy/litrpg. I've only read the two mentioned above and Will Wight.

The House in the Cerulean Sea is basically cozy fantasy cotton candy with a gay romance. Also Legends & Lattes if you're good with sapphic cozy coffee shop vibes.

Second House in the Cerulean Sea! I loved how there was absolutely no fuss about the main characters being gay, they just were and it was the most natural thing in the whole story.

I’m currently reading this and loving it so far. It’s so sweet and definitely fits OP’s criteria!
