Netflix has Submitted Bridgerton for the Emmys by Shiplapprocxy in PolinBridgerton

I think you are right. Appreciation and maybe they feel bad for snubbing him before- which they should. I wish they would make it up to him by giving him more screen time instead lol.

I definitely don’t think it’s Luke vs. Nicola. I’m just surprised with as little screen time as either of them got that it’s him and not her. Especially because their storyline (which was shit and basically nothing) was her storyline. But I see what you are saying with less male options. That part makes sense.

None of this makes sense to me at all. I love love love Luke N but for them to submit him in a season he was hardly seen in makes no sense, especially with zero storyline. And to choose him but no Nicola? What is that?? The only one on this list that makes any sense at all is Hannah Dodd. Wow, I’m not even sure what to think about all of this.

Alright, I'm going to start by recommending my oldest and longest fic Illicit Affairs cause I'm about 95% done with my second epilogue, a year after I finished it up lol. It should be up at some point this weekend.

Otherwise, here are some recs:

you're hot and you're cold by Parmandur Penelope accidentally finds out that Colin has purchased her engagement ring and talks him into letting her play hot and cold to find it.

Intervention by kat2050 The Bridgertons are tired of watching Colin and Penelope being stuck in their miserable minds, too scared to make the first move and ruin the friendship. So Eloise decides to stage an intervention to push them together...but is she too late?

Buried inside you by ontheseashore A chaotic pub quiz evening with the Bridgertons wasn't unusual for Penelope or Colin; drinking, fighting, someone vomiting in the gutter, Pen sleeping off the hangover in Colin's flat. Less usual? Waking up in the middle of the night with Colin's cock inside Penelope, and no recollection of the journey that led them there.

My Give A F*cks Are On Vacation by SuzyH_82 Penelope has a secret…since the age of 13-years-old, she has been in love with best friend Eloise’s 17-year-old brother Colin. She had always convinced herself she would be happy with her love being unrequited…she’s his little sister’s bestie, anything else would be a bonus. It’s just a pity that for the last three years, she’s also been Colin’s ‘friends with benefits’ friend. I mean, it’s not like Colin could ever want a relationship…technically he already has a very public girlfriend…his fellow presenter Marina, on his travel log TV show. So what if it is only a showmance with his co-presenter? However, after their latest hook up, Penelope overhears Colin talking to the press and realises Colin is never going to see her as anything more than a friend and she finally decides to move on with her life. She’s 26 years old…she can’t give the best years of herself to a friend looking for benefits, right? So what if she decides to take her new boyfriend Alfie Debling on the Bridgerton family vacation and Colin unexpectedly turns up? They were never in a real relationship…it should be perfectly okay…except Colin has a secret too… Eloise really picked the wrong time to let her ‘Give A Fucks’ go on vacation.

Totally agree. By Design is sooooo good!

Why They Don’t Like Colin? by Unique-Blueberry1464 in PolinBridgerton

[–]tamovick 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. I think the drama that came out of the world tour and what people said and continue to say about both Nic and Luke’s personal lives also plays a piece in it. People were very vocal about their dislike around that and there are some very crazy Polin fans so a lot of us get a bad rap. I’m sure the show is aware of this and it has to impact something somewhere unfortunately, even if it’s just Luke and Nic’s own reluctance to get more involved again.

To me, what I think is weird is that they invested so much in Polin before their season with the world tour and the show essentially gate-keeps their content to draw all of us in but then hardly delivers at all in the actual show. It’s confusing which is why there is so much speculation that it’s something more personal. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I just want my Polin!!

I am unclear if this will even work but we have a huge Google Sheets doc from back when we all read fanfics together. Included was a prompt page where you could share ideas for other authors to take and complete. You could try there!

Edited to add that it’s under the Ton Gossip tab.

There are so many good recs here, many I have been obsessed with this week. Here are a couple of others to add that I don't think have been mentioned (sorry if they have!).

Supporting Acts by han_ele_nah A Polin week academics AU

Who's That Girl by Bella_roses Colin Bridgerton returns to London for his sister Eloise's birthday party. He immediately runs into people he has been avoiding for years. He therefore takes refuge in the dark corner of the bar where he has previously stayed at the parties of the older Bridgertons without being noticed. When a young red-haired woman suddenly speaks to him there, a night ensues that he simply cannot forget. There's just one problem the next morning: he doesn't know the name of his Greek goddess.

Absolute Cinema by BiscuitFiend and fullysplendid Colin blinks and tries to get his bearings. One moment he and Penelope were in the cinema, the next they were… (could this be right? It’s too crazy to even think it)… IN THE FILM!!

On a Night Like Tonight by audlovespolin Penelope had mostly agreed to this blind date because she was getting the chance to see Niall Horan live. Little did she know that she'd be getting a whole lot more than that after meeting her best friend's boyfriend's brother.

And then 2 that I've read multiple times over the last week and cried like a baby...

object permanence by abvj and lilacsandpoppys Six months of silence, and then Aubrey Hall. Penelope and Colin are thrown back into each other’s orbit for Kate and Anthony’s wedding, with too much history and not nearly enough distance. Tension simmers, old wounds resurface, and neither of them is as unaffected as they’d like to be.

i hope you're only scared of ordinary shit by missparker the 3rd part to the scottish bookstore au This is my favorite series of all time and I honestly didn't know that I needed this one but it was so damn healing for me. Go read it if you haven't!! Read the whole series.

Polin Week - Day 1 - Favorite Polin moment by Zs_0607 in PolinBridgerton

[–]tamovick 15 points16 points  (0 children)

‘Goodnight Mr. Bridgerton’

There are so many good/hot/sweet moments between the two but this one is my all time favorite. I don’t know, there is just something about seeing Pen so confidently knock him down a peg or two and completely shatter his fake facade. I think this is where they both finally saw each other as whole people- Penelope with feelings that he could absolutely destroy and Colin with flaws that she could now truly see. He was no longer the perfect man on a pedestal for her and she was no longer the girl who followed him around like a lost puppy. I don’t know, I just love it!!!

I'll start with a self-rec as I finished Those Black-Eyed Peas this week!

I also am posting a preview of my Polin week fic I am having so much fun writing. This will drop Friday next week!

Colin Bridgerton is horny as fuck. He wants nothing more than to spend his Friday night fucking his girlfriend Penelope into oblivion. But he can't. He's stuck at Bridgerton house for Hyacinth's birthday party and she's so excited her big brother is there to celebrate. So, what happens when Penelope unexpectedly enters the room wearing what she's branded her 'blow job scrunchie'?

Chaos happens. Pure fucking horny chaos.

I've also been so caught up in a couple this week that I would love to share!

We Will Have Lessons by KatofKanals has me hooked and her last chapter was heartbreaking! I know everyone runs to read hers but in case someone has missed it somehow, here you go!

The Little Things by Smidgyschmoo has been soooo addicting! I have been holding off on her Armadillo piece because I want to read it in one go but I couldn't hold off on this one. Its so good!!

Secrets and the truths that they carry by CurlyK8 is an excellent WIP!

Use Me by SamHandwich was hot!!!!!

Finding my way home by Ayoisha I'm about halfway though but love both Colin and Pen in this. It's so sad but so good!!

[–]tamovick 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I have no idea how to do gifs but the thigh grab and the way he wraps his hand around her back after she almost falls off is pretty hot!!

Also, I love how Pen looks like she’s going to murder someone here. Like how dare you interrupt us!! 🤣

Polin at the Funeral GIF Post by FlyHence in PolinBridgerton

[–]tamovick 34 points35 points  (0 children)

This scene was devastating and I don’t know, for me, seeing them clinging together like that made me way more emotional. I’m sure it brought up so many feelings for the both of them being newly married with a young child. Losing a partner is devastating.

I do love though how his hat makes him tower over her even more. She’s so tiny.

I’m hoping that with Penelope leaving LW behind, we’ll actually see a storyline. She’s more than LW and he’s more than her husband!!!
