Behind The Camera

That certain project will label them as 🌽and they’ll be gone.

Romance writers, backup your work. Print hardcopies if you can.

Readers of queer and LGBTQIA fiction as well, do the same. Grab physical copies now while you can.

Mariana was a novelty in the Ton. That’s why she had many callers. She chose Colin because he was young & handsome & easily led.

This is what caused a shift in Colin & made him “harden himself” as he says to Cressida.

Some of the weird shit I’ve seen today alone…

1. Angry with Lukey Newts for having gf who isn’t Nicola and then proceeded to provide “evidence” of how the rest of the cast hates him based on Instagram posts

2. Claiming that there’s an article that says the writers used chatgbt and AI to write the season…without providing the name of the article or a link. Also not taking in to consideration the hard caught battle against both during the writer’s strike

3. Petitions to restore “lost and cut” Polin scenes, which Nicola has confirmed don’t exist

4. Petitions to make Michaela back into Michael

She likely wouldn’t know for sure, but she’d probably have an inkling as her “courses” would not have shown up. Bridgerton

“Isn't physical attraction one of the ungovernable forces? You know, like gravity - that's what we like about it. Downhill, release the brakes, loosen your grip and then - whoosh!”

What is overwhelming passion? It’s when the MC (main characters) can not function because of their all-consuming need for their person.

We see this on s1 and s2 too for sure, but it’s on full display on s3. Colin’s obsessive searching for Pen in crowded ballrooms and across meadows afterward balloon attacks shoot him to the top of the overwhelming desire list. The tender kisses yes, but the feral touches and kisses he claims from her are the epitome of overwhelming desire.

The scene in the alley, albeit a bit too short in my opinion, is a prime example. Despite his anger at Pen’s betrayal a simple declaration of love from her makes him a beast. I love a good backward walk against a wall scene in romance and we get two in s3. One Colin’s dream…also a moment of overwhelming desire, and the other is the alley.

For example, in e7 after the wedding scene where Colin says “she will find you, eventually” the subtext of the next unspoken part of that line is “and she will take you from me”
