another one of my little pedantic pet peeves is people thinking regency = historical, rather than a specific historical era, and calling literally anything regency even if it's like a solid 100 years later

THIS is exactly what I want. They are friends! They love each other’s company! They can giggle like little kids together! BECAUSE THEY ARE FRIENDS THAT LOVE EACH OTHER! God I hope there’s more of this in season 3!
Also I don’t know who made this gif so if you did or know who did please let me know and I’ll gladly credit!

when a story has a predestined ending and you thought you already knew who the characters would become, but then you're hit with the fact that no, you actually didn't know these characters at all, they were unknowable to you until this very moment when a larger portion of their life has been revealed to you, and you realize, abruptly, that they had lives and losses and the aching desperation of a love they guarded with every piece of stubborn will they could muster, and the unknowable is suddenly rendered sublime for its opacity

some other people have said it but what if we get the cliche trope where Colin has a dream about Penelope (like Daphne has of Simon in s1) and he wakes up in a cold sweat of confusion and utterly flabbergasted at having such a dream about one of his best friends especially after she’s been cross with him and afterwards he can’t stop thinking about it and when he sees her he has little flashes of his dream flit around and he blushes like a mad man and starts stuttering around her and then she becomes confused and even more cross with him bc she thinks he’s teasing her

rip colin bridgerton your modern iteration would have loved being the husband that gets invited to stick around when it’s pen’s turn to host girls nights.
i just know your “grew up in theatre/drama and had primarily female friends vibes” ass would have been a slut for gossip, face masks, and triple strength homemade strawberry daiquiris.

DAY 7, POLIN SONGS
She's the rope that holds me
Yes, I know she knows me well enough, oh
She's the fire that blinds me
Leaves my fears behind me for a while, oh

idk, call me an austen purist, but one of her intentions as an author was to display the multifaceted nature of womanhood and female morality. twisting one of her more subtle and introverted characters to fit into the "slay pussy work snarky girlboss queen" trope feels wrong and frankly the opposite of progressive.
