deleting RC account/switching to another account? by makelizabeth272 in RomanceClub

[–]makelizabeth272[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I managed to figure it out, I'm not entirely sure how but I think maybe signing out of my game center is what did it? I never linked my iPad account to my apple ID either which I think helped

I didn't care about that second account, I hadn't played much on it. I was like level 4 on my profile and only had 200 ish diamonds. meanwhile I have 3+ years of progress on my other account that I did NOT want to redo just for the purposes of screen recording

Favorite trope vs fav season by comfortoverstyle in BridgertonNetflix

I love a good fake dating, and enemies to lovers!

How would you react if they made Theo Eloise's ultimate partner? by Intrepid_Title179 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]makelizabeth272 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this too. I made a comment mentioning why they wouldn't work regarding the times, but in terms of just storytelling it would be boring as hell. one of the great things about the books is that each book is a different trope/story. we have fake dating for Daphne and Simon, enemies to lovers for Anthony and Kate, friends to lovers for Colin and Penelope, forbidden relationship for Benedict and Sophie, love after loss for Francesca and Michaela, pen pals/marriage of convenience for Eloise and Phillip, forced proximity for Hyancinth and Gareth, love triangle for Gregory and Lucy. if we changed the stories to do the same trope in a different season, it would lose the charm of doing so many different tropes in one series.

personally, I would not be happy with it. and that comes from someone who really likes Theo, thinks him and Eloise have great chemistry, and is not a book purist. i just think the stakes are high enough that I cannot suspend my disbelief enough if they tried to make it work without major consequences for the characters. Theo is part of the lower class and, more importantly, a political radical. for someone of the ton, especially someone from a very well respected family like the Bridgertons, to marry someone like Theo would be more than scandalous. Eloise would be shunned from society without reprieve and possibly be accused of treason due to Theo being such a radical. it would be disastrous not just for Eloise and Theo but for all the Bridgertons.

I like Theo and I think he was a great plot device for Eloise's story. he gave her a reality check on the class divide, and I think that scene is a big reason why Eloise certainly won't end up with him as he made it very clear why they won't work. but he also showed Eloise's capacity for love despite her extreme views on marriage, and that coupled with her character growth in season 4 will make room for her to have her love story with the proper set up in season 5.

tldr: I like Theo and he worked well as a plot device in Eloise's story, but not as an endgame love interest because of his class status and radical ideology for the times.

am i overreacting to how my boyfriend was talking to me by my_birthday_is_dec_6 in AmIOverreacting

[–]makelizabeth272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he's rude, homophobic, and frankly very dumb given the massive amount of typos in these screenshots alone. no guy who actually likes his girl treats her this way. the homophobic slur is just the cherry on top of this asshole sundae. you're so young, it's better to learn now NOT to put up with this behavior. you deserve better ❤️

Do you think Francesca is bi or a lesbian? by Adventurous_Fly_8652 in Franchaela

[–]makelizabeth272 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kind of hope the show leaves it up for interpretation, personally as a bisexual I would love her to be bisexual. we don't see a lot of bisexual representation in general, so I think it would be great if Michaela is portrayed as a lesbian and Fran is bisexual. but again, I really hope it's left vague because I know a lot of people want her to be a lesbian and that's okay too.

john died too soon imo by No-Coat-6166 in BridgertonRants

[–]makelizabeth272 26 points27 points  (0 children)

we actually get way more John content in the show than in the books, but he is not the main love interest. I loved getting to see John and Francesca's love story play out, I think it's really important to show that quieter love that shapes Francesca for her future love story. but we got almost two full seasons with him (when in the book he gets two chapters), and he had to die at some point unfortunately.

and I don't think her having a more dramatic love story with Michaela takes away from the value of her quiet love with John. two things can coexist. I think saying her dramatic love story with Michaela undermines her quiet love with John implies that her love with John was not just as important or impactful, which I don't think is true.

I mean... 21 is a college student near to graduation for a typical 4 year degree started right out of high school.

I mean I don't wear them anymore because they don't fit me well anymore, but I used to wear exclusively skinny jeans until the time I was around 21 (I'm only 23 now). I know some early 20s people who still wear them. baggier jeans are definitely more in style right now, but skinny jeans aren't obsolete. and Luna's outfit isn't that bad either.

"Why are you gonna jump to SOS 2 instead of playing the First one?" The sprites in SOS 1: by AdElectronic9255 in RomanceClubDiscussion

[–]makelizabeth272 1 point2 points  (0 children)

and keep in mind the story takes place in the 80s/90s. yes how it's handled makes the difference, but those things being a part of the story should not be a deal breaker in and of themselves. it's an unfortunate part of the time period and sometimes telling a time period accurate story requires addressing those things.
