Jonathan Daviss In Unbuttoned Shirts Is My Favorite Genre Actually

why would the actor make the decision to PHYSICALLY RECOIL from the love of his character's life? what was the point of Colin being so cruel? and then to deny her her wedding night as a form of punishment because he couldn't possibly even touch her? All sense of love and yearning evaporated, replaced with ice cold cruelty and avoidance. That's not love! if they were going to go this horrible route, better acting was needed to show that Colin is conflicted - he doesn't look conflicted, he looks absolutely disgusted and repulsed by her, which is not polin!

book!Colin would never. A character madly in love would never...This show ruined polin i can't believe them #notmypolin

she looks so good

#king and queen of being done

look, Edwin is Charles' soulmate, but when I see two extremely attractive people making out my interest is piqued, ok? like...

I think everyone deserves a Casper-esque "can i keep you?" moment with a ghost. It should be a rite of passage for everyone if you ask me...

book!Polin:

Polin argue in the Bridgerton drawing room -> Colin starts thirsting for Pen

Polin argue in Penelope's living room --> Colin wants to kiss Pen

Polin fight in the carriage -> make out session

Polin fight at the engagement party -> have sex

show!Polin: Colin gets angry at Penelope and just abandons her, ignores her, avoids her, won't even touch her nor look at her.

WHY WOULD THE SHOW WRITERS DO THIS TO POLIN?

Daily Diego. He's so slutty (affectionate)

i just brought Ahsoka (my wife) a cup of caf from the ship's kitchenette and she said thanks sweetie :)

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???
