This is also the episode where we explain why we personally like it, as well as featuring the opinions and stories of trans people regarding gender and Omegaverse.
Finally, we tip our toes into how this trope spread throughout the world and even outside of fandom.

What even is Omegaverse? In this first episode of our two-parter about this beloved fanfiction trope we’ll talk about the basics and elements that define this world. Where the tropes originate from, the many variations present in A/B/O, but also how we’ve applied them in our own writing and the different ways we saw them written while reading Omegaverse ourselves.

In this episode, we are joined by two seasoned fanzine mods, Lee and Rose, who will talk us through the process of making a fanzine: What are the different roles in a fanzine mod team, and what are the different stages of the creation of it?

We’ll also dive into the *+*Drama*+*, failures and problems that usually come with zines- why is there so much of it?! How to avoid it, and what are the red flags you should pay attention to in a zine?

We have to scream about chapter 322 of the Manga that was just released today. 

The moment all of BKDK has been waiting for finally happened and we just need to collectively scream about it. 

Unscripted, unplanned, spontaneous. Just AAAAAAAAAAH!

LalaZee is joining us in this first part of our two-part series about Zines. We take a look at the Daddy of Fandom: Star Trek. How the Kirk/Spock slash fanfiction spread through Zines back in the 60s and laid the foundation of modern fandom. Of course, there are some Kirk/Spock goodies, some history of what that fandom was like, its relationship with the creator Gene Roddenberry, and fanfiction-tropes in the old days that are still present today. All possible through the creation and sharing of self-printed fan magazines or “zines” as we call them today.
