In this episode, we're looking at one of the oldest tropes in the world: Found Family. Why do we keep coming back to these families-of-choice and what are our favourite ways these get used in fic? Get ready for some squealing; this trope is one of our favourites.

We have a patreon at patreon.com/allficdup! Subscribers get longer versions of episodes and access to our Discord (and other special things we haven't decided on yet). You can also contact us at allficdup@gmail.com and on BlueSky at @allficdup.bsky.social.
