SMNTY Classics: The Cinnamon Roll · Stuff Mom Never Told You

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Hey, this is Anny and Samantha.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Welcome to Stuff I've Never told you Production by Heart Radio,
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: and today we are bringing back one of our very
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: early halfy hours, the second one I ever did, which
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: was about one of my very favorite tropes, the cinnamon roll.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, that's been on your head for so
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: like that's been on your mind?
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, long it has.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: And I have to say, since this came out, I
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: have started publishing fan fiction and I've just discovered all
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: of the various terms people used to refer to this.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: I do talk about it in here. Samantha helped me
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: do the early part of that because I was too
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: scared to learn.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh, no, one just.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: And this is a naive atay, and it's kind of
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: faded away. Now you're telling me things. I'm like, oh,
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: I don't like this.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Listen.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: I got a friend that has far surpassed me in
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: the fan fiction world, and she is constantly telling me
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: about some Star Wars story that I'm like, how do
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: you know about this?
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: And I don't. That's funny. I don't know what's going on.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: But anyway, a lot of these as fan fiction has
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: gone more mainstream, a lot of these tropes and terms
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: have gone more mainstream, and as I discussed recently in
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: a Happy Hour, I saw what I believe was a
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: misuse of cinnamon.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Roll in an article.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: I disagree with how they described it. I don't disagree
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: with some of their points, but I disagree how they
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: described it. And this was when I was asking you
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: about True Blood, and I had just had so many
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: questions because I did watch that show, but I couldn't
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: remember it very well, right and Blood, Yeah.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: And I can't imagine there's anybody on that show that's
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: a cinnamon roll.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: I can't remember it well enough, but I do.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: I I personally think because they were talking about the
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: bad boy vampire having a spell on him and being good,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: which true, I don't think that counts as a cinnamon
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: role because the cinmon role only works if it's genuine.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: If it's not genuine, it doesn't work.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: So he kills somebody in his innocent stage.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Oh no, I mean, you can't explain that a way
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: depending But I just because it was a spell, it
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: doesn't work.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: It has to be here.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: And I'm pointing to our heart, y'all, just so you know,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: she's pointing to our Heart.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Yes, well, please enjoy this classic episode.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha. I'm not going to stepman.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Never told you protection Heart Radio.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: So it is time for another Happy Hour once again
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: by happy coincidence, is actually Thursday.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: Yes, so happy Thursday, everyone.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Happy Thursday.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: We wanted to invite you to get a drink or
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: a snack or just do something to relax with us
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: for a little bit, as we love to share these
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: hopefully spaces in perhaps a stressful time or day for
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: you to take that moment whatever that means to you.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Please join us because I'm actually I'm so excited, and
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Samantha can see, but I'm like smiling because I'm so
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: excited to talk about this. What I chose for this
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Happy Hour topic which is my favorite fan fiction term
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: that I only discovered within the past year, I think, which.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Is cinnamon roll.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, And so before we get into what that is,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: and I swear this is related to feminism and women,
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: I promise, I promise, I promise.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Samantha knows that I love this very very much.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: And as part of our watching Star Wars cocktail thing
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: that we've done where we've created a bunch of cocktails
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: for the original trilogy, Samantha, you created one called the
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Cinnamon Roll.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: Actually it's Annie's Cinnamon Roll. Oh, remember it was very
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: very specific. Did we name your segment because it's specific
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: to your nerd loves?
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Well, the working title is Annie's Nerd Corner. But as
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: I said, I'm still workshopping.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: I was just trying to say if you've came up
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: with a new one or an actual lasting term.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: But yeah, I did create something for our very beginning.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Watchings, and because it is cinnamon roll, and I for
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: the longest time really thought you meant cinnamon roll, and
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: every time we talk about it, I crave cinnamon rolls,
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: and I'm very upset right now that I don't have
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: one in my face.
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: But it's okay.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: I did decide that I was going to do a
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: cocktail specifically for you, because I have this love of
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: coffee and hot chocolate mix together. Of course, this is amocha,
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: I know. Don't don't at me. People, I know, but
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: we're not fancy like that. So I had to create
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: my own, which ended up being a dark coffee with
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: a scoop of your favorite hot chocolate.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: Mine is a double dark chocolate.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, a little dash of cinnamon obviously, because for
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: the cinnamon roll part. Some type of dairy or non
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: dairy ish creamer if you want. If you want to
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: make it alcoholic cool, do your Bailey's. If not, go
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: for your favorite creamer. I also have my sweet cream
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: Chibboni creamer.
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: I really do like that.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: None of these things are sponsored in the way sponsorship.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: And then you of course mix it up, stir together,
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: and then at the top, if you also want to
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: do a dash of whiskey, you know, for any I
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: do this for her specific you know, cinnamon roll, and
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: then we do a swirl of whipped cream because I
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: love some whipped cream with another dash of cinnamon top
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: of it. And that is your any cinnamon roll and.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: I love it. Samantha. You nailed it. And that is
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: what we're sipping on right now.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I'm sipping on kind of a modified version because I
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: don't have all those ingredients. And I'll tell you as
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: I told Samantha, I'm a two coffee before noon gal.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I'm a two cup gal.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: It's now like three here and I've had four coffees,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: so I feel like I am flying high right now.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: Yes, your jitteriness and happiness of caffeine is quite obvious.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Thank you, And I did want to mention one time, Like,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: way back when I was I often talked to Samantha,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: who was very kind to let me indulge.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: In my fandom.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: I often talked about cinnamon roll and sometimes I'll just say, like,
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: my sweet cinnamon roll randomly. One time, you did get
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: cinnamon rolls the food so we could enjoy cinnamon.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: Rolls one bite and then I ate the rust, but
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: it was okay. I was still okay with it.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, so that is what we are sipping on.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: But let's talk about the fan fiction term. So it
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: means someone who is too pure, too sweet, too innocent
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: for this world or galaxy, and usually suffers for it.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Almost always, in my fan fiction realm, it is almost
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: exclusively used to refer to Luke Skywalker from the original
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: Star Wars series. I've never seen it apply to anyone else,
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: but my fan fiction realm is pretty narrow, so like,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: I can't say for sure, but he like I imagine
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: if this was a Dictionary entry, his picture would be
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: next to it. And it's my absolute favorite thing when
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: I read it. And as you know, samanth I was
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: scared to google what it meant. When I found out
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: the definition, I was like, oh my god, this is
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: exactly the thing.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: This is what I love, and I love that.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: It has a term, yes, and it also describes what
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: I Yeah, what I write there is also I want
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: to put in here cinnamon roll with an S.
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah. We went through a whole deep dive of these
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: different versions of cinnamon rolls.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Yes, you you helped me do it because I was
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: afraid to google it.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: And that describes someone who appears to be super innocent
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: but is actually the opposite, or maybe better put like,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: they appear to be a cinnamon roll with the sea,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: but they're not. And then there's burnt Sinemon role, who
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: is somebody who was a cinnamon roll but thanks to
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: some trauma, is no longer a cinnamon eral. They are burnt,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: and some people I could see the argument that Luke
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: and the Last Jedi is a burnt Centamon role.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Maybe in the newer ones Yon roll right, Yeah.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: I think so. I can see that.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: And that's actually funnily enough, even though I would imagine
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: most people don't know this term. That is what they
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: didn't like about Luke in the newer ones that he
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: is a burnt cinnamon roll, and Luke is also specifically
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: for him. He's also interchangeably called son, sign child or
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: puppy in a poncho, which are very related.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one very specific scene. I have that pancho now,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Yes I know, and yes, I love this so much
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: that Samantha, she made me a wonderful She got a
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: wonderful mug made for me that has Luke on it
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: and a cinnamon roll that says precious cinnamon roll, too good,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: too pure for this world.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: I love it. I'm drinking out of it right now.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: I was so excited when I found a person who
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: could do that for me on the perfect mug with
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: a perfect like this is why I love Etsy again,
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: not sponsored find people who are local and can do
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: these crafts.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: For you, beautiful.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: I still love to think whoever this person was who
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: wonders about it, what is the cinnamon roll or either
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: knew it and was like, ah.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: I feel like and it was so she Her response
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: seemed to be like, I know exactly what you want.
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: Like it, and it's exactly what I wanted.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: So I have a feeling she knew, like, I'm going
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: to give a credit to that because there was no question.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: I love it, I hope, so I absolutely adore the
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: I have a homemade coaster for cinnamon roll and a
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: shirt that says cinnamon rolls, not gender roles.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: So I love it. I will put out there if
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: you're interested.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: I would love if anyone was interested in wanting to
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: google more about this afterwards. I'd be surprised. But there
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: is a sex slang term sinmon roll too. It's actually,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: you know, maybe Google knows me too well, but it's not.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: It was not on like the first page even I
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: don't think. Yeah, but just to put.
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: That out there now, I'm gonna wonder what that is.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Oh, don't look at it, okay, I can explain to
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: you later if you would like. No, no, no, no.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: That says a lot, so I'm good.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: So this term is believed to have originated from an
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Onion article about how cinnamon rolls the food were too
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: good for this world, like we didn't deserve cinnamon rolls,
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: and some words and phrases associated with a cinnamon role.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: I wanted to go through a list. I did this
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: last night because I actually wrote this outline a long
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: time ago, and I kept thinking of things so kind, sweet, genuine, earnest.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Did I say kind, because that's a big one. Always
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: putting others first, self sacrificing, friendly, affectionate, compassionate, brave, standing
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: up for their beliefs, loyal, open, vulnerable, honest, good, pure, innocent,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: a damn sweetheart right, breuscious, gentle, soft sunshine. They like
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: really see you, you know, and they're so open and
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: giving with their hearts and they're usually pretty forgiving. Okay,
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: but yes, what does this have to do with feminism
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: and women's issues? So this is my theory and it
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: is very personal to me. I don't think this is
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: why everyone likes or write cinnamon rolls of people who do,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: but it is what resonates with me. And just a reminder,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: unfortunately women and other marginalized groups, do you experience trauma
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: and PTSD at higher rates? And also they're the ones
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: most fan fiction, so I'm sure people are like, wait,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: what we're talking about PTSD? Yeah, So the idea of
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: being so good and so pure that you make others better,
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: and this is a rhetoric we've heard particularly against women,
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: like used against women making men better in that hetero sense.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Sineminerals are also very genuine in their emotions and instead
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: of being judged for it, they're loved for it. And
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: that's nice to think, especially if you have been through
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: a trauma, that being open with yourself and your emotions
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: wouldn't drive people away, but instead it is a lovable
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: Trait is something people love about you, something that makes
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: you special.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: That's a nice idea.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: And then being so innocent that all the harm that
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: comes to you is not your fault, which is particularly
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: powerful when you've gone through a trauma and you're looking
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: for all these reasons, examining all these things of how
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: it was your fault, you're victim, blaming yourself, And just
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: that term innocent it is really loaded.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: And here I'm not talking.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: I feel like that often is used in a sexual
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: sense of like importunity.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: It doesn't mean that.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: And this question of like can you still be innocent
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: and quotes after a trauma, And for me that was
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: a very important thing. I wanted to believe that even
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: after everything I've been through, I could be normal and
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: heavy quotes and happy and sweet. And also there's for
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: me personally, again, there's a level of not understanding the
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: world around you, especially the romance aspect and bad evil
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: things and just kind of not so great things and
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: bringing out those protective instincts and others because it without
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: you don't have to ask, and that is comforting because
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: for again, I have a really hard time asking for help,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: and so the idea that someone could just help me,
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: that they can see that I need help and they
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: will and I don't have to ask, is.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Really comforting for me.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: And this trope does almost always involve someone being comforted
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: and assured that you did nothing wrong and people just
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: being really protective of you. And this is tricky because
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: for me, I had these traumas at four hundive points
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: in my life and this protection protection at all king
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: met I price. So it's extremely powerful for me to
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: think that someone would protect me because they want to
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: because they like me, and not because they want something
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: from you. Which I know you can protect someone because
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: you like them and you love them and also want
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: something from them, but that is really hard for me
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: to accept. That's something I'm actually working on because of
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: what I went through. Yeah, semon rolls themselves are generally
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: always putting others first and never thinking of themselves and
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: that necessitates this protective instinct in others, even when it
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: comes to making sure they eat or sleep, which is
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: something I.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: Can really relate to.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: And I will say some people really don't like this trope.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: They think that it's unrealistic, which no one's saying. It's
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: not a kind of goody two shoes territory. And that's
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: where you see the opposite of this, as in Loop
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: becomes an evil. Sith Board are kind of similarly Harry
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: Potter is in Slytherin. This is really cunning. I would
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: argue for some this is also a reaction to trauma.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: Those things and they just coped in a different way
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: than I did, And that's not bad or wrong. It's
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: just how, as we said, people cope in different ways.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: But TLDR, I love ceminon rolls, not a food. Yes,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: the food is okay, but the trope is my favorite,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: even though I know they are unrealistic. And I would
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: never want to put these restrictions on trauma on anyone
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: or how you should handle trauma. But it's nice for
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: me to read and write about I'm jokingly said, I'm
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: seminal sexual.
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: I could see that.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, yes, I will say this was probably
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: the first things you told me about in fan fiction
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: world as I'm learning of such things. But yeah, I
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: think it's definitely a conversation about trauma as well. And
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: when we talk about Hey Potter specifically, I come from
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: like a social work perspective of like, no real kid
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: would be this okay and this good and this reality.
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: But that's not true. That's not true.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: People react differently, and some do fight against the evil,
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: and some Jews have come to their own traumas. And
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: then when I say SubCom that means like whether it's
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: exploring yourself and finding yourself however necessary.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: So yeah, it's a whole thing.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: But yeah, cinnamon rolls sounds really nice and does make
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: me want to eat a cinnamon roll.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: It can be accomplished.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: There's a part of me that's like, I wonder if
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: I could convince Samantha to read one of these fan
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: fictions so she knows what I'm talking about that I didn't.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: I feel like I know you talk a lot about it,
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: so I feel like I've read some things, like even
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: without reading things, that's.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: Okay, thank you well.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: And I also want to say if I wasn't clear
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: I'm sure plenty of people read this and like it
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: because there is that dichotomy of like super sweet Luke
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Skywalker and then you're like gruff on Solo, and that's
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: just some people just enjoy that, like contrasting characters, and
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: they're not reading it because it's like trauma interpretation. But
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: that's just for me. I think that's one of the
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: reasons that it really resonates. And I do think that
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: probably for other trauma people who've experienced trauma, that might
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: be something similar, but I could be absolutely wrong.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: I'd love to hear from any listeners of your thoughts.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: I think a lot of any kind of like fan
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: fiction or when we talk about writing or needing something
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: cathartic and when you connect with a character so deeply
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: you see it part of yourself into that character, or
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: whether it's the environment and too I wanted to go
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: the way.
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: You hope for or you are fearful of. That's therapeutic.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it is, and I know I've talked about
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: it before, but it has been very therapeutic for me.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: And if you want the mineral fan fake recommendations, I
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: have a million of them. I have a lot they're
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: almost all original trilogy Star Wars because that is what
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: I mostly read right now, and Luke is the main
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: character I've seen with that label. As I said, the
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: most Cinnamon role of the Cinnamon Rolls I've read is
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: a ten part twin swap fic being Luke and La
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: switch places called How the Other Half Lives by Arcadian Knights,
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: and I adore it. It's a series, so yes, ten
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: parts is a lot. Also, what's coming to an end?
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: And I'm very very sad you told me this. Yes,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: and the author I wonder if they would agree about
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: the cinnamon role label, but I think so. But yes,
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: I have many recommendations. I will totally shout out your
• 18:52
