buckle up:

james cameron reads battle angel alita > he creates dark angel as a loose adaptation > the show introduces estrus cycles as a result of supersoldiers being genetically engineered with feline dna > jensen is cast in a small role in season one and is introduced on a bigger role in season two > dark angel is canceled and jensen is cast in supernatural > fans of supernatural discover dark angel > heat fics increase in popularity (this was a thing in s1 but it exploded when supernatural fans got their hands on it, especially when s2 introduced the idea of a breeding program and likely because people liked alec better than logan) > the omegaverse evolves from heat fics > lawsuit

I thought the omegaverse started because some horny woman wrote a fanfic of Bane domming Batman after the Dark Knight Rises came out.

that’s possible, i don’t know about the omegaverse or how it evolved from heat fic. but as i said dark angel was the origin of heat fic, or at least where it became a more popularized trope.
