Winter does something to us. It changes what we crave.
Even if you’re someone who loves the buzz of the holidays and the “fresh start” energy of January, the truth is that the season also pulls us inward. We want warmth. We want softness. We want indulgence that feels safe instead of rushed.
That’s why Lunar Fae Stellaris is such a perfect Flirt to feature in late January. Their fantasies lean into what winter does best: deep comfort, slow-burning desire, and the kind of escape that makes you feel like you’re wrapped in something protective.
When we asked how winter influences the kinds of fantasy, romance, or adventures they most enjoy exploring with callers, Stellaris shared something that feels instantly relatable:
“When I look back, a lot of my favorite formative stories, whether books or movies or video games, always had either significant scenes and arcs that took place in winter or somewhere snowy, or were just set entirely in wintry settings. It makes me want to recapture that feeling of coziness, safety, and magical nostalgia that you get when you think about your long-time favorite fairy tales.
I also think a lot of people want to hit the ground running in January because of all the ‘new year new me’ trends, but in reality winter has only just begun! It’s a time when our bodies and minds still want to rest and relax. Especially after how chaotic the holiday season can be for some people. I think there can also be a huge mood drop for some after the ‘holiday magic,’ so to speak, is over. I hope to bring them back to that magic, get them to relax again, and soften the blow of the transition. My favorite fantasies to do at this time focus on being cozy, relaxing, and indulgent while snowstorms rage outside. Finding refuge in a little cottage warmed by a fire and a beautiful, inviting fairy witch, after traversing the snowstorm, or stopping at an inn when we’re weary from traveling in the frigid temperatures and finding yourself doted on by the luscious elven room service are some of my favorite cozy and sexy fantasies
If you’ve ever felt that mood drop, that strange crash after the sparkle fades, you’re not alone. Stellaris understands it, and their goal is to bring that sense of enchantment back in a way that feels gentle, not forced.
This is your Tuesday invitation: let winter be an excuse to slow down, sink deeper, and indulge in warmth that feels like a reward. Stellaris’ world is the kind of place you visit when you want fantasy that feels safe enough to relax into, and sexy enough to make you forget what day it is.
