I Would Have Been Fine With Colin Being Angry Penelope Until Literally The Last 25 Seconds Of The Show

Rupert Evans as John Spencer in Moonflower Murders

he's so prettyyyy ☺️

Watch me turn your mind into my home.

this lull as we wait for Dead Boy Detectives' fate 😖

although i do like that they argue and then it is immediately followed by a steamy make out session (very book Polin), there are two huge flaws with this scene that COMPLETELY ruin it -

Colin walks away from Pen, "not wanting to hear it," leaving her all alone in the middle of the street at night for the second time.

Pen, again, has to call out to him and get him to stop to talk to her. The fact that she has to initiate AGAIN is not okay because remember, this is unrequited-to-requited story line. We're in the requited section - so the ball is now in Colin's court, he needs to be doing more initiating for any of this to have any meaning. If Pen continues to pursue him, even when he is angry with her, THEN WTF ARE WE DOING HERE? And therefore, it ruins the interaction after that because it's Pen in the driver's seat yet again and that's not fair to Pen. She deserves to have him pursue her for once. FFS!!!

Second flaw - he doesn't go back home with her in the carriage - why? what are we even DOING here???

i love Romancing Mr. Bridgerton so much - I really hope season 3 doesn't suck and ruin the perfect book polin dynamic.

please don't suck please don't suck please don't suck

if you defend Colin Bridgerton's character decisions in Bridgerton season 3 part 2 like i am being so fully judgmental you are MAD WEIRD like there's something off going on up there....
