Like I know we all want less sideplots when we love the main love story, but look at all the people who weren't wild about S4 pt 1 because they weren't connecting with the love story but then liked pt 2 way more because John's death brought the family dynamic back in full force.
By removing Bridgerton family members as the seasons go and their spouses with them, the show is removing one of it's main appeals: the family dynamic. They're making it harder for themselves by depending solely on the main love story hitting absolutely everyone each time.
We joke about Colin being obsessed with Pen but it cannot be understated that Pen is absolutely just as besotted with Colin. Loving Colin is so core to Pen as a person and sheโs living her dream life when sheโs with him. Sheโs just as obsessed with him, she adores him.

Guys, speaking as a reader (bc I had too many WIPs to dare to be a writer this year), the downside to having over 200 fics to read this #PolinWeek is that it might take a minute for us to get to your lovely stories. Pls don't be discouraged, though! You are so appreciated ๐
For #PolinWeek Day 6 โ Time Travel, I doodled my favourite concept of these AUs: Past Colin so totally not jealous of Future Colin and assigning himself as Pastnelope's chaperone (and ending up being even more appropriate than Future Colin could've been) #polin
