Ep 21: 50 Shades of Grey Chapter 21

Plot warning in this chapter, but if you can stick it out through that, there's plenty of the usual tomfoolery. Plenty of kinkshaming from Ana, emotional constipation from Christian, and before any of it can be resolved, Ana leaves for Georgia. This should go well!
Content warnings for this chapter: racism, kinkshame, stalking.

Ep 22: 50 Shades of Grey Chapter 22

This chapter follows Ana across the country to get some distance from Christian - except for the endless emails they send back and forth the entire time, of course. Let's see how this goes, shall we?
Content warnings for this chapter: stalking, alcohol mention, extremely sexist stereotypes, discussion of statutory rape, jealousy/possessiveness, and did I mention stalking?

Ep 23: 50 Shades of Grey Chapter 23

In this chapter, Christian shows up in the bar where Ana and her mom are out drinking, and (of course) takes over Ana's entire trip. Because what are boundaries anyway??
Content warnings for this chapter: alcohol mention, controlling behavior, discussion of child molestation/pedophilia, poor communication, discussion of physical abuse, kink shame, drug mention, anti-sw slur.

Ep 24: 50 Shades of Grey Chapter 24

This chapter is a bit fluffy, as the fanfic people say. Christian takes Ana gliding (or "soaring", as he calls it), and then the rest of the chapter is filled with emailed banter when an unexpected situation calls Christian back to Seattle. Because every so often I suppose we have to have a break for plot.
Content warnings for this chapter: unhealthy attitude toward food, brief implied kinkshame, secondhand embarrassment, toxic masculinity.

Ep 25: 50 Shades of Grey Chapter 25

Ana's back in Seattle, and heads straight for Christian's place. He's still keeping his "situation" a secret from her, as well as what she said in her sleep, so I'm sure that's all gonna turn out fine. For now though, they spend most of this chapter getting naked together in various ways.
 
Content warnings for this chapter: kinkshame, abuse mention, toxic relationship, pushing boundaries, poor pre-scene negotiation.

Ep 26: 50 Shades of Grey Chapter 26

Here we are, the final chapter, as we watch Ana and Christian press the self-destruct button on their own relationship. In an attempt to connect to Christian, Ana asks him to punish her as harshly as he wants to...and it goes, predictably, very badly.
Content warnings for this chapter: kinkshame, kinkshame, and more kinkshame. Also poor communication, terrible dominance, slight boundary pushing, stalking/abuse mention, and one very dramatic breakup.

Interlude (A Brief Update)

Why have I been so quiet lately? Because, well, life. But don't worry, I'll be back at it as soon as I can! :)

Ep 28: 50 Shades Darker Chapter 1

I know it's not exactly on the schedule I was hoping for, but better late than never! We're back with Ana, as she handles being several days post-breakup absolutely horribly, and Christian, as he handles being broken up with...even worse. Here we go again!
Content warnings for this chapter: disordered eating, stalking mention, kinkshame, slur use, alcohol mention, consent violations, toxic monogamy culture, possessiveness, controlling behavior, sexual assault mention

Ep 29: 50 Shades Darker Chapter 2

So if you just pretend that your girlfriend never broke up with you, and pressure her to take you back while she's fragile and grieving, you can just keep going with the relationship and everything's fine, right? Christian Grey says yes. I say buckle up for chapter two.
Content warnings for this chapter: bad dom behavior, alcohol mention, kinkshame (of course), slur use, discussion of child abuse, suicide mention, rape joke.

Ep 30: 50 Shades Darker Chapter 3

(Now with correct audio, I promise!!)
Are you settling back into the (horrifying) rhythms of this series? I know I am. After Ana's boss tries to hit on her at a bar after work, proving once again that nobody in this series knows how to negotiate healthy boundaries, Christian once again swoops in and rescues her, and we're off to the races once again.
Content warnings for this chapter: slightly creepy boss, toxic monogamy culture, possessiveness, manipulation, major boundary crossing, minor kink without consent, alcohol mention.
