The secondary genders are made up of 3 catagories: Alpha, Beta and Omega. Alpha are the more dominant ones who tend to be active more while Beta are basically normal humans and Omegas are the submissive ones. In an omegaverse setting, the Alpha and Omega have a gland that releases pheremones and an Omega has a heat every month in which they need to take supressents or rely on an Alpha to cool down.

i think it's even funnier that she thought she had any major influence in the m/f omegaverse scene. like even if we could prove that she was the first to write m/f omegaverse, her having claims over tropes in the m/f omegaverse published book scene is a pretty crazy reach when m/f omegaverse derives it's entire universe from omegaverse yaoi (and het enemies to lovers tropes too). being first in a genre doesn't exactly make one the most influential in it.

@@Tareltonlives And the name itself "The Mortal Instruments" apparently comes from a ron and ginny incest fic. Honestly the pseudo incest bits of mortal instruments are less surprising knowing that

And also the fic that she reworked into publishable material had a lot of allegations of straight up plagiarism. It's rough.

“No one cared who I was, until I put on the DMCA lawsuit” - Addison Cain

[@PeanutsAssorted]

Addison Cain claiming that she basically created heterosexuality in fan fiction has the exact same energy as that straight girl in a gay bar yelling "It's my special day!"

[@Tareltonlives]

"Why can't we have Straight Pride Day?!"

Immediately had an image of Jimbo yelling that pop up in my head

Addison: "I invented straight rapey romance!" entire romance genre: (spittake)

She invented the thing that the romance genre has been drowning in since the the bible

I really love Jenny Nicholson's performance of Cain's lines. The arrogance and whinyness of it works so much.

imagine a law professor using this case as an example in a class and having to say KNOTTING

If i were a law professor i would specifically use this case as an example in class just to see how my students would react with a deadpan delivery of the word "knotting".

Lawyers can see lots of things when they are not specialized in any legal branch lmao My mother worked as a secretary in a buffete when she was young in the 90's, she saw divorces and claims about which person had the family jewelry and the canary the divorced couple owned, a family fightning on who had to take their grandma's parrot and collection of creepydolls, a woman who tried to sue her son because he didn't cook macarroni and the time a doctor went to the courts because her wife cheated on him and his lawyer had to re-act the moans and phrases said by her during the sex time.
