Notes
- Lauren Billings of Christina Lauren as our special guest this New Year’s Eve, but frankly Christina has way too much sense for tonight’s nonsense. There’s a Twilight fic called Vulturi Dairy.
- It’s lactation kink, not adult breastfeeding. The AO3 tag is “ABF” just in case you need to know. But it’s been around for a long time, including in classics like Dracula.
- We are embarrassed not by this episode, but by the fact that we didn’t do any MPreg recommendations.
- The book Lo mentioned that made her say “Honey are you okay?” is Milk for Money by Amber Sunwell.
- Read up on induced lactation, which according to the Mayo Clinic “might” be possible.
- You can find out more about the Alexa Riley AR Taboo pen name at their website. Be sure to check your content warnings before diving in over there.
- Rob Lowe!
