>Raised in a household so filthy it was stomach-spilling, Vera involuntarily evolved into a neat freak. Upon discovering she and her disabled husband Daniel are expecting, she needs fast cash. Her obsession with cleanliness sprouts the concept that her skills can be put to use in a unique way. She takes a stab at the booming door-to-door vacuum sales business of 1988.

>All is going well until she arrives at the steps of a house that will change her forever. The steps of an evil that resurrects the ghastly memories she so desperately tried to wash away. Nothing will prepare you for the nastiness, disorder, and sickening horror brought forth by... The Slob.

At this point, I just see most words in most titles of most books as "nigger" anyway. I'm still trying to figure out why /lit/ is so gung-ho about The Niggers Karamazov. The whole thing was just some Russian guy complaining about niggers for like 300,000 words.

The disabled princess and the warlord chad fucked because the mental link they had with their dragons made them horny (their dragons were in the middle of fucking).

Honestly i dont see how women as a gender can survive this. The fact there's a demand for INFINITY of this, entire armies of women writing this, marketers selling it, women consuming it, etc. It's a dealbreaker for their entire gender.

I just blows my mind this is a thing women unironically desire and craft entire narratives around

>Autist missing the forest for the trees
Structurally, Onyx Storm is exactly like Twilight.
>Powerful guy
>He wants ti fuck me but can't because he dangerous to me
>Scenes of coitus interruptus that gradually build to a final apocalyptic fucking
Whether it be dragon heat, Zutts giving lusty thoughts, the curse of Neverapeddeer MMXII from the kingdom of Clitalia, vampire, or demonic pollution, is the moot point. The main point, and the narrative chassis that links Onyx Storm to fossils like Twilight, is a powerful and dangerous guy who wants to fuck the main heroine but can't out of fear of hurting her; and this coital tidal flow gradually builds up to the final, and orgasmic, penetrative act. The plot and fantasy/punk/supernatural/horror decorum are secondary to this main sexual structure.
Your thinking is the same as saying Stephen King's settings are what sets the books apart while missing that all his book follow a very predictable structural plotline (which makes them boring to read in a row because it feels like reading the same book over and over again).
These books are called slop for a reason; and it has nothing to do with the details of the setting.
Learn to deepread.

>plus size heroine
Oh you mean FAT?! Oh, you mean the main character is a FAT, DISGUSTING, GOBLIN?! You mean the story is told from the perspective of a LAND WHALE who downplays her MORBID OBESITY by claiming she's "curvy?" Is this the kind of thing Amy Award's PIGGY SCHLICKING COOMER readers relate to? Isnt that like a man openly admitting his main character is an incel for his incel audience?
>>
>>24823373
>The plot and fantasy/punk/supernatural/horror decorum are secondary to this main sexual structure

This is what I find so disconcerting, the plot arch IS the sex arch. There's no reason for the book or its particular details to exist except for there to be sexual tension leading to a climax.

Twilight is YA it has no sex. The Puritans thought that the books their daughter was reading were the cause of her depravity. It is actually not. E. L. James was just that horny.
>is the moot point
Yup, that's why it's called "formula fiction".
I'm just saying what I found funny in this book.
Specifically, the post you quoted was about the fact that Booktok thought that it was bestiality the whole "I'm horny because of the dragon" business. Which not a lot of people on /lit/ talk about.

I'm not here saying that Onyx Storm to litfic, lmao. It's such a far reach on your side.

"Big words" vs "technical terms".
Which one sounds more serious?
The second one. So incel will use it for that purpose, even if the core of it is the same (unless they want to attack the pretentiousness of the speaker, but that's an exception: they love muh "dating market", muh "hypergamy" etc.)

Unrealistic vs unhealthy.
Which one you think a woman would use?
>>
>>24823358
Really ironic that fat whales who preach about body acceptance desperately want chad thundercock, the school's tight end, rather than their equal, anon mcloser, the greasy dude from the anime club.
>>
>>24823548
Just as well since greasy dudes are desperate for 10/10 staceys.
>>
>>24823557
Key difference that they don't pretend they are just as good looking as chad

Don't know what cinnamon roll signifies here, but mmc is research chemical meth analogue

>Which one you think a woman would use?
"Unrealistic beauty standards" is a common term used by wahmen. Also, unrealistic and unhealthy have different meanings -- someting could be unhealthy but realistic (possible).
