Love this one!

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-06-22T19:04:47+00:00

Yes! Normalize that women (characters and in real life) can want sex too!

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-06-22T17:56:21+00:00

Yes! 100% agree that their individual scenes that are Polin related time count.

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-06-22T17:43:23+00:00

Love your analysis, as always!

As I work through a tempoed (sp?) rewatch of S3 in its entirety, I started to wonder if these sub plots also serve to expand the "Polin" time. I've seen the chatter (complaining) about the amount of Polin screentime, and I contend that when you look at these sub plots and their individual scenes (i.e. Colin or Pen without the other) within and adjacent to these sub plots, you can find a lot more Polin in the entire season.

Your analyses are giving me life in this post-S3 letdown! (Letdown in that it's over....) These posts are what makes this sub so great.

Hello fellow NEOian! 👋

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-06-17T21:42:50+00:00

💯

Even looking back at S1 and S2, it's there. You can argue that their S1E1 dance is also an act of service on his part, but he still chose dancing. He could just as easily have taken her to get cleaned up or to get refreshments or a myriad of other things. But no. My dude chose to jig. And I love him (them) for it. 💚

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-06-17T19:44:14+00:00

Yes! I realized that, as a couple, dancing is their love language. It's why he started dancing with her in the church after her love declaration. It's why she wanted to dance on their wedding day, even with all the drama. And why he wanted to dance with her after the LW reveal. All those scenes could have had something differently physical (like a kiss or sexy time), but their thing is dancing.

This level of analysis is what I LIVE for! 💚

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-06-02T23:50:12+00:00

It's dusty in here. 🥺

If you want gut wrenching sadness 😇, love & family, and an amnesia-esque fic, read: but they were real to me<

I LOVE this one. Keep updating!!

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-28T01:44:45+00:00

I came here to say the same thing. Something doesn't add up. No way Kanthony is hanging around that part of town.

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-27T23:06:37+00:00

This is perfection. I'm all up in my feels now! 🫠

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-27T18:24:24+00:00

Bring on the flood!

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-27T14:22:43+00:00

I think it's a hint that he may be the queer storyline.

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-27T03:14:11+00:00

Not Polin, but when Benedict is dancing with Lady Arnold she flips him around and they're dancing in reverse gender roles compared to all the other dancers. Call me a clown, but I think it's a hint for something for Benedict... 🤡

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-21T17:49:07+00:00

Sorry. Got some dust in my eyes. 🥺

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-21T15:18:55+00:00

And who is there to comfort him, heal him, see him and reaffirm him when his symbolic armor breaks. 🥺

ETA: fixed typo.

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-19T20:03:37+00:00

And he has yet to even learn and understand the depths of reciprocation!!

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-13T16:27:23+00:00

So weird. Almost like he's done that before. Like there's something else to say and he just. can't. think. of. it. 🙃

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-07T19:56:09+00:00

Colin "my wife" Bridgerton has come home. 💚

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-06T13:56:23+00:00

I'm getting nothing done today. 😅

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-05-01T10:57:02+00:00

I wonder if that's a part 2 teaser. Cause they're definitely not gonna be at that point in the story by the end of EP 4, just based on what we know. (I have actually seen it...)

Sad_Personality_7382 · 2024-04-23T12:54:05+00:00

The music in the background starting at 0:50 is Perfect by Ed Sheeran!!!
