We take a nostalgic dive and revisit our gateway smut, from early crushes on Twilight's Edward to Harry Potter's fanfic-fueled Draco and Disney's anthropomorphic foxes. We debate book-to-movie fails, our shadow daddy love origins like Han Solo and Rhett Butler, and the allure of fairy tale retellings. Minotaur romantasies get some side-eye, though we will hold off fully knocking it until Kay tries it...coming for you, Morning Glory Milking Farm. Is K-Pop demon hunters the next gen's entry to fantasy romance? We wrap with a mid-read roast of Sarah J. Maas' A Court of Silver Flames...SJ has still not come around to Nesta but Kay remains a fan.
