i’m sorry if colin swapped bodies with anthony he’d off himself

we have multiple significant hand scenes ☺️🙂‍↕️😊 sometimes i convince myself people don’t like polin bc they have everything

i cannot think of another show where preferring one ship to another is so widely considered a litmus test. as if it’s not just subjective based on personal tastes. that being said being staunchly anti-polin is incorrect and i will not be elaborating!

i rewatched the first half of episode 5 last night for the first time in ages and fell in love with the complexity of polin once again and then woke up to a viral anti s3 tiktok and was immediately taken back to fighting for our lives during the summer of 2024

TASKMASTER AU???

coming back to say that this is the first fandom where i’ve legitimately wanted to start fights in ao3 comments. i won’t! but i want to!

seeing luke newton today. feeling superior bc i was going to do all of that theatre etiquette anyway. feeling inferior bc i’m hungover.

just saw a great tyrant polin edit on tiktok but i really need someone to do it and it’s colin with lady whistledown because she took away his illusion of who he thought penelope was (also hate vs. envy!!)

so many devil’s advocates on here. “let people ship want they want” actually no! i won’t! i’m gonna shoot them with a gun! hope this helps!!!!!

writing penelope in love with anthony or benedict does make you a penelope hater. i don’t give a fuck. cry me a fucking river

entrapment line discourse really makes me wonder if people think characters mean everything they say every time they are onscreen

i have made the necessary arrangements to go see luke’s play end of august so even if i get deeply uncomfortable defending any man on social media please use this as evidence that i do not hate that man and in fact think he’s a terrific actor with a good future ahead of him!

when i read a fic where penelope has brown eyes and colin has green eyes, i tip my hat. a true intellectual. and then I swap it for blue and keep on reading

being too afraid to be in the polin fandom on twitter means that when i see a fic prompt on there that makes me stop in my tracks idk if i’m allowed to write it 😭

at what point do we as a fandom come to the realization that marina is RARELY written in-character, with any agency of her own and is merely a placeholder for a generic villain that the story probably didn’t need in the first place and… stop putting her in fics

best friend’s brother is such an underrated aspect of polin’s dynamic

my first s4 polin fic is up! archiveofourown.org/works/66898900

found this in my camera roll and it made me laugh

😋😋

I wrote this smutty, fluffy nonsense & hope it makes someone else happy. I also avoided work this morning to make this mood board 🤣 so, happy monday to me! archiveofourown.org/works/66823918 #polin #polinfic #polinfanfic

idk. it’s just i do think using ai to write fic is bad and not worthy of my respect even if you tag it properly. like thanks for the transparency? i still do not and will not ever understand you or enjoy your work?

this fic is this tweet embodied to its fullest archiveofourown.org/works/66621790

polin is so summer coded

i’m obsessed with modern au polin like for some reason those are the fics that will most often make my tummy hurt because i get so invested but i have truly no idea what modern pen’s style is. or how she wears her hair. i try to imagine modern day nicola in her red wig and my mind goes blank

hi

remember when time magazine reported polin love scenes in s4

Happy birthday to the one and the only Mrs. PENELOPE BRIDGERTON nee AKA LADY WHISTLEDOWN. Thank you for bringing joy to our hearts and bringing smiles to our faces. You finally have your happy ending, and we can't wait to see your story continue #penweek @streeprafferty.bsky.social

that was an immediate pfp switch sorry

throwing up

if they kill john in s4 and then make eloise s5… what is francesca and michaela gonna do in that time 😭😭😭 it actually stresses me out so bad how much bton writers have backed themselves into a corner

#polinweek day 1: archiveofourown.org/works/64319023

deciding to participate in polinweek on the day it starts has me feeling like penelope writing an entire issue of lw in the carriage on the way to the printer but if she can do it so can i 🙂‍↕️

you know i actually find s3 to be a lot more subtle than previous seasons and more complex in it’s handling of certain aspects of post lw reveal polin and therefore it makes sense to me that it’s not everyone’s favorite because nuance is not for the many

eloise just found out how a woman becomes with child

bafta nominee

i’m so obsessed with aimee lou wood atm and sometimes in life you get lucky in that two (somewhat) unrelated hyperfixations star in a project together and yet is seize him! available anywhere… no!

i can’t watch season 3 of derry girls without seeing nicola’s stand-in and/or the bits where she’s clearly been added in post pls send help happy st patrick’s day

keep seeing pics of nicola with those lowlights from like… 2019/2020? and i’m obsessed

that color and those extensions are FRESH love that for her

i was kind of hopeful the pic was from s4 🤪

people begging greta to cast nicola when she’s been in talks with selena gomez the entire time 😭 we were playing chess while she was playing checkers that’s wild

this is so modern polin at the annual bridgerton foundation gala it’s actually insane

so many instances of colin towering over pen today 😌😌😌😌 feels so good so right

that’s (reluctant) family 🥹🥹

they HAVE to be aiming for an earlier release date right. RIGHT?

i got mad on the bird app

like she’s out mugged the fit and now i think she looks so good and cool and rich and famous 😊😊😊😊
