#reylos are at it again! This week, V and Emily dive headfirst into a HIGHLY requested event in fandom history: when reylo-turned-pro author Cait Corrain completely decimated their own career and tried to take the Reylo fandom down with it. This is the MsScribe story but with a 2024 twist! So many sockpuppets! So many hashtags! So much villainfucking! And SO MUCH MONEY! Get aghast with us as we imagine having consequences of these proportions rained down upon us and yet LEARNING NOTHING from them.

We'll be attending TGIF/F aka TGI Femslash, which is a small femslash fan con in southern California over Valentine's Day weekend in February. It'll be the con's ten-year anniversary, and they've asked us to do a special, live podcast episode about the history of the con as their special highlighted programming. If you love femslash and want to come meet us and be a part of this wonderful, small event, you should register! A 3-day pass starts at $120. You can register for the con and find lots more details at tgifemslash.com!
