As we pass into the ultimate HURT / COMFORT month, we feel called to speak on a subject near and dear. The kissin' cousin of our beloved Romance Genre - FAN FICTION. 
How does cultural context inform fic and romance? Do you need to be a fan to enjoy fic? Why has this taken us so long?
We will interrogate the boundaries of fic and romance via a beloved object- one of Isabeau's fave fics - "Rough Magic" by gondalsqueen on Archive of Our Own.
We will compare the (slightly) alternate universes of fan fiction and romance, or should we say the fic to 'mance pipeline, via "The Love Hypothesis" by Ali Hazelwood.
And lastly, we will consume and critique a fic recommended by YOU, the listener.
This is sure to be as fluffy as it is angsty, Whoa!mantics. 
Please DM us your fic recs on Twitter, @mance_whoa, or IG @whoamance. You can also email your recomendations to whoamancemail@gmail.com

Whoa!nus: FanFic-uary Dawns

Summary:
We came, we saw… we read half a million words of fanfic for just this one episode! For our season four finale (!!!), please welcome our friend and incredible artist Evelyn Rogers, who has waited very patiently to journey with us through one of - if not *the* - quintessential Lord of the Rings fanfics ever written. There’s action, there’s intrigue, there’s betrayal… but, you know what? Love wins.

We're officially kicking off FANFIC-UARY here at Whoa!mance--We're dissecting an Isabeau fav fic in the Castlevania canon. Want to have sex on your period AND fight demons? Fanfic can get you there baby! Want to wander Eastern Europe in the Middle Ages killing Dracula's nigh creatures while watching two characters fall in love? Join us as we follow the winding questions of who's fanfiction written for? What is the earnest/sexy equation that creates the fanfic magic?  Why do we love interacting with texts we already love? Why does fanfic love romance so much?

Is it more than watching characters you love love up on each other? 

Yr grlz are pulling the threads that yoke romance and fanfic and their fans together in a beautiful and now lucrative tapestry.

This ep, we're staying space together (continuing FanFicUary) for the space kids (you, faithful listeners) by discussing THE LOVE HYPOTHESIS by Ali Hazelwood.
Olive (Stanford University Biology PhD Candidate AU Rey from Star Wars) and Adam (AU Kylo Ren) should not be together - he is tenured faculty in the department she's working on a PhD in. Thank goodness they are not together for real. But as often happens, fake relationships can lead to real consequences. Especially when that consequence is true love and sex at a conference.
Why does the zeitgeist choose fascists? Is the real HEA just being treated as another worthy being? Will "Woodiwissification" be the 2024 word of the year?
This is part 1 of a two-part stand-off between fanfiction, publishing, Isabeau, and the Star Wars franchise. Please don't sue us, Mickey.
Also, we have some technical issues start at approximately the 23 minute mark, thanks for sticking with us.

Episode 149: Space Divorce - "The Love Hypothesis" by Ali Hazelwood pt. 1

We're back and we're ready to get down to the business of weirdest, sexiest, and whoa/no of THE LOVE HYPOTHESIS by ALI HAZELWOOD.
This fic turned barn burner of a romance novel (you can buy it Target!) uses characters from the Star Wars universe to tell the story of a third year PhD candidate catching real feelings in a fake relationship with a tenured faculty in her department.
What is the line between real person fic and character fic? What about fic demands delicious cringe? Are there breasts so small and mouths so big?
In the words of Jar Jar Binks - Dissen ganna be bery messy!
