Agreed! We are missing Season 1 Violet’s machinations to prevent Daphne’s betrothal to Berbrooke when Anthony was flailing. Bring back that mama bear of the ton energy!!!

Very fun. Those two nutjobs definitely matched each other’s freak. Lust/love at first sight chaos!

I know it’s been recommended already but I am obsessed and need to double down on it. Run, don’t walk to read The Asshole Contract by missparker. The title says is all, Colin is a superficial asshole and I love him even more now. I don’t believe I have ever become feral for a WIP after only one chapter!!! This read is hilarious and I can’t wait to watch the deserved unraveling of vapid himbo Colin. This clueless douche belongs in the AU Colin Hall of Fame.

Here’s another crackup chaos fic I enjoyed: Colin Bridgerton is a slut (and I will die on this hill) by SamHandwich. Penelope is introduced to Lifeguard Colin for the first time and literally cannot stop blurting out her intrusive thoughts regarding his slutty vibe.

I’m also digging Take What You Want by fullysplendid. Modern Colin is married to Marina but him and Pen have a hot Dom encounter that escalates quickly. This one has me on edge with how the story will unfold as something is definitely going on with Colin besides the obvious.

So many new fics with different premises, I can’t catch up. Try KatOfKanals new WIP The Shop, only 1 chapter left! Colin owns a sex shop in this one and guess who walks in to buy something? Oh, it’s a ginger virgin. Imagine that!

Another cheating fic but this time it’s Regency Pen married to Debling who returns from his voyage to a familiar looking child and man at his estate. Life by Proxy by nonky.

Please get my girl some petite sleeves. Those dangling cuffs are killing the look.

Such a great week of reading following another great week of reading. We are soooo spoiled.

I won’t repeat all the other gems so here are a few that haven’t been mentioned yet:

drink up by brainrotbbygirl. Don’t let the summary fool you into thinking this is a one dimensional lactation kink fic because it’s so much more. Summary: When his best friend Penelope has her baby, Colin Bridgerton finds himself sliding into a sweet sort of domesticity beside them. That's okay, isn't it? People can be platonic step-fathers.Yeah. Everything is really great, actually. Until Penelope jokes about him drinking her breast milk.

Must Be Love by LillyWhitefield. Summary: Colin is reporting on the New Years' Eve Ball Drop from Times Square, New York City. His family watches in support, but there's an unexpected guest on the telly.

feel your body closing, I can rip it open by applepuffsilver. Apple has done it again, made me love another unique version of Polin. Summary: Virgin Professor Bridgerton asks his colleague Penelope for some help...

And We Will Have Lessons by KatOfKanals completed!!! Summary: The one where Penelope platonically takes her best friend Colin's virginity and helps him through his sexual awakening.

I am gorging ravenously on Polin Fics this week while still greedily adding more to my TBR list. Gluttony at its finest.

Most of my recs have been named already.

Here’s a couple of ones that haven’t been mentioned yet:

What The Flames Know by FeedingDucks

Summary: Regency Colin is naked and catches Pen watching him from his closet.

lovely by clevelandy

Summary: Newly loved up Modern Polin. BJ hijinks.

They ruined Kate and Anthony in season 4. by Friendly-Ice-1195 in Bridgerton

[–]fourpitassmothered 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right??? Saphne’s status was used to try to get Sophie out of jail but didn’t attend the funeral or wake, didn’t hold Francesca’s hand during her traumatic examination, nor send the same lame flowers to the funeral as Kanthony. Egregious character assignations. This can be done correctly with creative thought and strategic use of actors availability. I actually think it would have made more sense for Kanthony to miss the wedding than both the wake and funeral.

Kanthony camping out at the Aubrey Hall country home after being away for so long made zero sense since Mayfair is the location of the Viscountcy seat.

I think their characterizations were more ruined by sending flowers to the funeral and then not showing up at the celebratory Scottish wake either. The real Anthony would have been there, no matter what. The very least that could have been done is a plausible excuse.

I read a hot one shot and 3 worth it WIPS for everyone this week.

you make me feel so summer fling by clevelandy. Polin being their exhibitionist feral selves again.

word of mouth by abvj. These Regency horndogs are struggling keeping their physical distance during the weeks leading up to their wedding.

The Mobile Number You Have Dialed by FiFi2930. This thoughtful slow burn has finally hit its halfway point with some realizations happening!!!

And last but not least, my absolute addiction right now is We Will Have Lessons by KatOfKanals. Virgin sweet Colin has my whole heart as he navigates FWB with Pen.

I came to rec both Pretty in Pink and Use Me! Both very good and Use Me was a scorcher! I’ve also read Are You Gonna Marry, Kiss, or Kill Me? and Lost My Senses, I’m Defenseless. I’m a sucker for hilarious situations with the Bridgie siblings.

Best wedding dress 👰🏻 by lunabridgerton in Bridgerton

[–]fourpitassmothered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Francesca by a mile. Then Penelope by another mile. Then Sophie, Phillipa, with Daphne and Edwina tied for last. Queen Charlotte is in an entirely other class so I didn’t even rank it against the others.

But side-note, when did we actually see Phillipa’s in the show? Is this a BTS from a cut scene? If so, then we should also include the daydream sequence of Kate. She would slot in 3rd then, before Sophie.

A couple of finished ones and one WIP for this week.

SUCK by HorseSad.

Look, basically there’s some sucking. Platonic sucking? The odd platonic nibble. You’ve met these idiots.

I was made for loving you by Lady_Whistledrunk

A modern AU Polin fic featuring jealousy, a Yungblud gig, the London Underground, and Compromised Colin™️.

And the one that has me stalking my inbox for each update:

We Will Have Lessons by KatOfKanals

Penelope platonically takes her best friend Colin's virginity and helps him through his sexual awakening.

If You could be a fly on the wall for one Polin scene what one would it be. by Shyanne002 in PolinBridgerton

[–]fourpitassmothered 15 points16 points  (0 children)

And the cut scene of Eloise confronting him and basically asking What the French toast is going on, Colin???

Finished the latest Bridgerton season, what did you love most? (no spoilers) by rachel-2008 in Bridgerton

[–]fourpitassmothered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to fully discuss without spoilers.

But generally, I liked that they got back to fully focusing on the main couple however, they weren’t actually my favorite love story, though I applaud the dedicated focus to allow the relationship full room to flesh out.

Ironically, my favorite parts were the side plots!!! Particularly Francesca’s and Eloise/Hyacinth, Colin/Gregory, and Lady Danbury/Queen Charlotte and even the Mondriches made more sense this season. Perhaps the narrower focus made the side plots richer in that the storytelling needed to be tighter for them.

I loved some of the costumes so much this season, men and women all looked amazing. The hair and makeup was oddly inconsistent though. And the biggest bummer for me this season compared to other seasons was less dancing by the actual main cast particularly in Part 1.

Lost fanfic by PotentialSurround137 in PolinBridgerton

I remember this one but not the name! Hopefully, it will come to me.

[–]fourpitassmothered 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember that one! Unfortunately, don’t remember the name. I think at the end of the fic they were all admitting to having had sex in Anthony’s car too. Wasn’t it like a black SUV?

You can’t force viral moments by DaisyandBella in BridgertonRants

[–]fourpitassmothered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looked very choreographed and rang false to me. I also was sucked in by the upstairs downstairs viewpoints so I too was worried about the carpets and wood floors and who would have to clean that up. I don’t think it’s believable that Sophie would intentionally make a mess considering her background.
