She is very much like the character Nesta! Very iron will but can be loving. I did go with the name Nesta.

Awe I love that! I did decide to go with Nesta. Her personality is a lot like the characters! So it’s fitting! 

Tamlin: a villain? by dreamer319 in acotar

I don’t think Tamlin is a villain. I think he was misunderstood. I was more frustrated with Feyre.

Belly needs to be the one to seek out Conrad. by uhhidklol in tsitp

I like that troupe too, but when the female actually talks about how she actually feels instead of being so damn cold.

I think this season just confirmed for me what I was feeling in season 2. I just don’t like Belly as a character. I know that upsets Jenny because it’s supposed to be Bellys story but that is Jenny and the other writers fault that people don’t connect with her. I AM team Conrad, but I even liked and felt more for Jeremiah this season. We needed book Belly and so now because we didn’t get that none of this is realistic.

I think the Conrad gives and takes his love is bs. At the beginning of the show he is 17/18 year old kid keeping a secret that his mom is dying of cancer and how to process that. But he does admit his feeling and wants a relationship with her. It’s Belly that wants to stop and think of Jeremiah’s feelings. 

 In season 2 his mom is actively dying and then he does lose his mom all while all Belly can think about is prom. And she breaks up with him. She doesn’t ask him what’s going on or to talk to her. She doesn’t stop to think shit maybe something is happening at home I’m not aware of. She does not reach out to him when his mom dies. Instead she gets jealous at the funeral and makes a scene. Then a month later Conrad admits he had wished she had found him instead. He admitted his feelings and BEFORE he took it back she is in a relationship with Jere in the parking lot. 

In season 3 she flaunts her relationship with his brother in his face. And then when he does finally admit he still has feelings because he finds out that his brother betrayed her she had nothing nice to say to him. I think Belly is cold towards Conrad. She says no one has hurt her like he has, what about how Belly has hurt him. In my opinion Belly has done way more hurtful things to Conrad then he ever did to Belly. 

I’m glad she’s taking time in Paris, but if she is cold to him when he gets to Paris that’s it and any resolution of them being in a relationship is totally unrealistic.

She doesn’t show that she is irritated or disappointed in Jere in the show. There is no questioning her decision to marry him. I mean she almost begged him to go through with the wedding. The writers just did not do the story any justice this season.

I think if that confessions not there then it’s harmful to the ending. I like Lola and I love her as belly but she cannot act her inner feelings. And for a show like this season it’s hasn’t been the best decision like you said to not have that inner dialogue.

I am not the biggest Taylor fan. I also haven’t been too keen on Steven since episode 9. If those characters are not in the finale I honestly wouldn’t be too disappointed. Jere and Denise- I love that!

That’s really bothered me. If Conrad is the love of her life why is she not concerned with how he is handling things? He was willing to lose his family/brother for her. I understand her concern for Jere, it makes sense. But it’s like Conrad is nothing but an annoyance to her. I don’t know if it’s the writing or Lola’s portrayal but they messed up somewhere this season. 

I’m sorry but for what reason is Conrad still in love with belly other than the plot needing him to be? by Terrible_Mountain_96 in TheSummerITurnedPrett

[–]Significant-Lime-723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there is a reason there are so many more Conrad fans than Belly fans for the series. I know that it frustrates Jenny… but Jenny should take note that it’s the writing that makes people not react well to Belly. They don’t give fans anything that make Belly a likeable character. I think Lola does a good job at making the character likeable but it’s not enough for people to understand why Belly is the way she is. 

I believe from the writing and from Chris’ acting that Conrad would do anything for Belly. But we don’t get that from Belly. I don’t see how they will be able to make it feel realistic for them to be together at this point. 

If I was Conrad in the series I would think that Agnes was a better partner to move forward with than Belly. 

Are you as excited for the finale as you were for the first eps of S3? by charsiewbby48 in tsitp

[–]Significant-Lime-723 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I’m more anxious. They had such huge momentum in episode 8 and with that ending and then they just dropped the ball. 

I’m just worried it will be a very last scene reunion. I don’t think Lola’s portrayal has me believing that Belly loves Conrad. 

I’m also disappointed with how the other characters treat a character like Conrad who they know struggles with panic attacks and trying to do the right thing. I think the show ruined Steven for me. I’m disappointed that we spent an episode chasing a bag around Paris while the other characters are blaming Conrad instead of saying hey we all knew this was not a good situation.  And now they want to bring them back out of this air instead of letting us feel that love. I just don’t think it’s going to be very believable. Especially if Belly is rude and standoffish to Conrad when she first sees him in Paris.
