    Fourth Wing Chapter 17 - Part 2

    We jump back into Chapter 17 with Violet's very first flight lesson! Can she stay on her dragon? Stay tuned to find out! (Spoiler alert......... no). Join us as we discuss Ridoc giving the quadrant their morning announcements, headcannon the existence of gender fluid dragons, and have a conversation about theology (are the gods real? Are they dragons?!). As an added bonus, Jon gets to go into deep conspiracy mode with his theory connecting gods, dragon breeds, and signets! Side note: editing Abby here to apologize for the voice overs in this episode - I am so sick and barely have any voice!

    Bonus Episode - Check-In & QPRs

    Happy Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week! We bring to you our first ever bonus episode which delves into aromanticism and asexuality, queerplatonic relationships, and the experiences of the aro and/or ace spectrum hosts of this romantasy pod. Also! This episode heralds the debut of Editing Cassie! "The queerness of being aro/ace comes not just from decentering the cishet couple but of rejecting the placement of the romantic & sexual partner at the top of a relationship hierarchy, and valuing platonic and other relationships just as intensely." - what Cassie might have said during the episode if she was more verbally eloquent, but she's a writer before being a speaker and didn't practice this speech beforehand.
