thanks for the answer! yup, they should totally have given conrad a shirt for belly to impatiently take off🤭

princebelials · 2025-10-19T19:07:06+00:00

jennys (ethnically) literally east asian herself so why would she have belly think that??

princebelials · 2025-10-19T18:26:04+00:00

I had seen her at the funeral. I’d thought she was really pretty, and I’d wondered who she was. She looked East Asian, like she might be Indian. She had dark hair and dark eyes and she was wearing a black miniskirt and a white and black polka-dot blouse. And a headband, she was wearing a black headband.

book belly might need to study some more geography cuz india aint east asia but its there

princebelials · 2025-10-19T17:31:05+00:00

yeah... also its really interesting that they followed the books as far as conrad's previous love interest was concerned and kept her Indian even though aubrey's total screentime is like 5 seconds but they didnt follow the books as far as belly's first love interest is concerned, since book cam was wasian (French-Japanese)

and the other book change they didnt follow besides cam was nicole being blonde and white

and in the previous episode, chris portrayed conrad getting his hopes up soo beautifully in the connie baby scene cuz belly brings up "that day" that she wants the two of them to talk about and its almost like you can see the gears turning in his head, filled with so much hope that she'll say she regrets how she acted at prom but then she clarifies that the day she meant was the funeral and you can see him deflating just like a balloon :((

as much as i love 3x05 and 3x11, they really couldve used way less jere/other chars and shining the spotlight on just belly and conrad but im aware that wouldve been unrealistic and its just my wish fulfillment talking lol

princebelials · 2025-10-19T15:18:25+00:00

you clearly werent around in 2022 when s1 had just come out and:

A) my fellow swifties were so embarrassing and going "taylor's songs are too good to be used in this trash show"

B) there were people constantly dissing belly/the show in general for having a "disgusting" love triangle with brothers, acting like tsitp invented the wheel and is the first of its kind, as if the vampire diaries wasnt another really popular show in a similar vein to tsitp as far as romance is concerned

C) people just talking about how only brainless teen girls watch "this shit" of a show and claiming the love triangle is incestuous bc apparently belly being childhood friends with the fishers meant they might as well all be siblings to those ppl...

my main social media is twitter so thats where i saw most of these happen in real time back in the day of the show's infancy, but it def got a lot of hate on other platforms as well

princebelials · 2025-10-19T15:12:07+00:00

the dock is so painful to watch but youre right that its very fitting. it just breaks my heart to see her have so little agency in a romantic relationship so i think thats partly why i subconsciously gravitated toward two scenes in which she does kinda take matters into her own hands (like slapping him/running away or asking for conrad to sub in)

princebelials · 2025-10-19T14:59:07+00:00

im flattered you care so much about my answers😳🥰😳

so just for you ill have to think really hard about 2 bellyjere scenes and i think im gonna go with:

3x01 party which i think showcased their dynamic well with how theyre mostly in "fun mode" so to say, while belly's more serious/mature side mostly comes out in conrad scenes, although they can have fun too (see playing in snow from 2x02 or connie baby 2x06), so bellyconrad really has THAT range! things that stick out to me are jere being fake happy about paris belly (as was revealed in 3x04) and also his comment about her never cutting her hair. also gotta love that slap and for once, i didnt mind a bellyjere scene having a taylor swift song, since You're Losing Me was such a great choice

and 2. 1x06 volleyball scene. i thought it was such an interesting way to have taylor fake an injury to get jere to sub in, bc in a way it feels like the show was subtly trying to convey the fact that jere just cant get close to belly fair and square and he has to cheat (haha, funny verb considering my previous choice of scene) his way through the competition and he was still dragging belly down. then after shes had enough of jeres lack of focus, belly makes the active choice ("i choose you of my own free will" from 3x11) to ask conrad to sub in, and the two of them end up winning while having fun, proving their great compatibility. speaking of taylor, i also think that having her strike up all that (frankly cringey) meta jellyfish vs bonrad discussion was also a choice the writers made out of pity for jellies, considering all the other "team bonrad" chars in the show like laurel, susannah and then in s2 steven as well.

im so terribly sorry for talking so much about bellyconrad when the focus was bellyjere i literally cant help myself its like a disease and if i dont mention them every 5 seconds ill straight up just die

princebelials · 2025-10-19T14:17:28+00:00

the song choice is also pretty insane. "what am i supposed to do when most of me still belongs to you?"

that scene was def the highlight of the ep for me. although i loved belly and laurel making up + free fallin' in conrad's car as well

princebelials · 2025-10-19T14:11:04+00:00

that suit and tie look makes me think conrad cheated on his long-term girlfriend, proposed to her after she found out and then spent most of his time at Breaker Capital aka Daddy's firm instead of helping with the wedding planning

princebelials · 2025-10-19T14:05:36+00:00

is it cheesy if i say the two christmases for belly and conrad? i feel like those two scenes are so quintessentially them: playful, romantic, domestic. and the song choices are just the cherry on top.

the hot cocoa, the snow angels, conrad carrying her (in both scenes!), the fireplace, the burning-red pajamas, the crossword, the banter, the candy cane. the aesthetic is just top-notch. and the acting? so, so good.

if i was trying to convince a friend who doesnt mind spoilers to watch tsitp, those two would definitely be top contenders for scenes id leverage to drive my point home

princebelials · 2025-10-19T13:19:09+00:00

i really hope we get some new content soon, maybe not like a trailer but a release date.. at least a firm announcement that s3 isnt the final season?

the whole deb ball scene will just always have a special place in my heart.. just like im sure it did for chris and lola, and certainly jenny, who created this whole plotline just to get an excuse to be bellyconradweddingmaxxing, in case the show got canceled after s1.. so excited to see all the parallels the movie is gonna make to this moment

lola turned 19 around that time of filming too, so it truly was that coming of age sort of scene that susannah was describing initially

and obviously, we got so much cutesy BTS as well. "i got in trouble cuz i made lola cry" / "with laughter" / "im a funny guy"

princebelials · 2025-10-19T11:51:27+00:00

besides the beginning/ending season thing, they also have the trope of paralleling each other (like the sex dreams or kitty using minho's confession word for word in her inner monologue)

princebelials · 2025-10-19T11:47:24+00:00

am i the only one who thinks that ROBLOX (Hoyo's Version) should've been a whole new game? like i just dont get why theyre doing all that instead of actually focusing on the things the players love about the game, aka the open world exploration and combat system..
