The phenomenon involves the creation and distribution of pornographic material, often illustrations or animations, featuring characters and settings from the popular television series and associated books. It falls under the broader internet concept that posits if something exists, pornography of it exists. For example, a depiction of Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen in a sexually explicit situation would be an instance of this.
Its prevalence highlights the intersection of fan culture, sexual expression, and online content creation. This type of material can serve as a form of creative exploration and reimagining for individuals engaging with the source material. Historically, it emerged alongside the rise of internet communities and readily available digital art tools, fostering its widespread dissemination and consumption.
