POLIN JEALOUSY/ADVICE ONE-SHOT
Colin fights his jealousy after watching Penelope and Lord Debling dancing together at a ball, is teased by Benedict, and seeks advice from Violet.
The silver beads threading Penelope's hair seemed to glow like tiny moons. If he'd had parchment and pen, Colin might've noted the perfect juxtaposition of fiery red locks and sparkling silver. He noticed everything--the way her dress swayed so effortlessly against the floor despite her stiff grip on Lord Debling. Was it only Colin's imagination, or did her gloved fingertips hover an inch from his shoulders?
…perhaps he was only imagining it. He reminded himself that Penelope's stiffness was for the sake of propriety. Of course she’d want to touch Debling. He was a gentleman, for one, and even Colin had to admit that he had his own upper-class swagger. A little posh for Colin’s tastes, but from the looks being cast his way across the ballroom floor, Colin knew the lord had made a lasting impression on this season’s eligible debutantes.
Colin hastened for a sip of wine, only to discover that he had drained his glass. He turned away as a certain red-headed beauty twirled across the floor (more gracefully than he had ever allowed himself to notice). He nearly dropped his glass as he struck Benedict in the chest.
“Steady there, brother,” Ben said, putting a hand against Colin’s heaving chest. “What’s the hurry?” He cast a glance over Colin’s shoulder, and the pieces seemed to fall into place. “I’ll say, your friend seems to be enjoying herself. If ‘enjoying yourself’ is best expressed by a scowl, that is.” He tipped his glass. Colin shot him a glare, even though his heart lifted a bit at this last sentiment.
“Oh, don’t be such a grouch,” Ben said, pushing his glass into Colin’s available hand. “While you’re at the table, fetch me another drink, won’t you?”
“I’m not your waiter,” Colin huffed, stifling the urge to turn back to the dance floor once more. It was like an itch, only scratching it burned like a rash.
“You could do with a break. Somehow my ‘sturdy’ little brother has spent the night looking quite pathetic in the corner.”
“I’m not pathetic,” Colin said, and pain tightened his chest. 
Ben rolled his eyes, still looking across the dance floor. “Say, maybe I ought to have a word with this Debling fellow. See if his eye for art is as keen as his eye for a wife.”
“Give him my best,” Colin grumbled, sounding more pathetic by the second.
Benedict gave him a sturdy pat on the shoulder. “And you, give Ms. Featherington your best while I do it. Now, hurry along now and get those drinks before the dance is over.” With a wink, he rejoined the sea of lords and ladies.
Colin gazed across the open floor once more. The waltz was approaching its conclusion. Pen’s hair looked on fire in the torchlight. His mind wandered to the fragments of a dream—Pen in the garden, her eyes twinkling a magnetic blue, her lips a luscious pink. He had leaned in just enough to catch the scent of her hair—like the wisteria garden, only…newer, fresher, somehow, and then—
“Colin, dear. Are you feeling alright?” His mother’s voice stopped him in his tracks. Her brow furrowed, and he hurried to right himself, as he had taught himself to do long before Penelope had pounded her way into the forefront of his mind.
Some things, it seemed, had not changed. He had a guard up, and even his beloved mama could not crumble it.
“Very well, mother,” he managed, swaying slightly on his feet. “Merely...looking for a refill.”
“Not feeling up to a waltz tonight, I take it?” The look she gave him suggested she knew there was a particular reason for it—Colin was not one for skipping dances. 
He had been avoiding his mother, he realized. Was that a flicker of hurt in her eyes? More than his brothers or sisters, Violet Bridgerton had always had an eye out for these things. And if that was the case, should he not be using her knowledge to his advantage?
“Mother,” he began, aware of the blush suffusing his cheeks. “Forgive me, I know we are in company, but I must ask. Do you believe the best foundation for love is friendship?”
She smiled, crinkling the skin around her eyes. Lovely eyes, so open and trusting. He suddenly hated himself for having avoided her, even if it was unintentional. Perhaps it was because of this conversation that he had kept himself from her. 
And something told him that she knew this as well as she whispered, “I think you already know the answer to that.”

Fanfic request
Is it just me or Penelope Featherington looks good in yellow as well? Especially this pale yellow dress she has on. As long as it's not bright or dark, she looks good in it.
Anyway, for fan fic writers out there, here's an prompt or an idea:
Colin likes her yellow dresses, but Penelope hates them. The color yellow reminds Colin of her. She was wearing a certain pale yellow dress when he fell in love with her. Colin was a little sad that when Pen had her glow up, she completely ditched her yellow dresses and swore never to wear that color again. He understood that green and blue makes her happy and confident, he knows that the pale yellow Pen is in the past and will never come back, so he didn't mention it to her. Some time later, Penelope learns of it and decides to wear pale yellow nightgown to make him happy. A pale yellow nightgown for only him to see.
Throw whatever plot or drama you want, I'll gobble it up.
Please, I'm begging youuuuu

“Speaking of which,” Colin said roughly, snatching the folded paper from her hands, “what the 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭 is this?”
“I would’ve thought it was obvious. I’m—”
“Yes of course you’re bloody Lady Whistledown & you’ve probably been laughing at me for weeks as I insisted it was Eloise”

“They love so unreservedly, the Bridgertons. Even when they are oblivious to the love in their heart, it bleeds all over the floor.”, said Kate as she turned and smiled at Penelope. “It can be daunting, especially when it is something you never expected for yourself. And I think maybe you and I are similar in that we created a life which made it difficult to allow for such expectations.”
Today it's been 2 years since the publication of The Path Forward heralded my return to fanfiction. Since then, over 900 kind souls have left kudos and comments, making my heart soar and spirits fly. I cannot thank you all enough for the inspiration that propelled me to continue writing, rediscovering my long lost love of the craft.
I am currently on hiatus for personal reasons, but I wanted to put this up today as a show of gratitude to all readers and writers out there. I also want to take the chance to bid the events of The Path Forward farewell, now that the third season is almost upon us with a plot that does not make room for my hopeful speculations in that particular piece.
Like all of you, I cannot wait to see how Colin's and Penelope's beautiful friends-to-lovers story unfolds, and will ride all the emotions with you come May 16th.
In the meantime, if you're bored or just curious, feel free to give The Path Forward a little love before it officially transforms from speculation to alternate take for season 3.
All the best!

I loved writing this chapter so much, it's full of so many sweet and spicy Penelope and Colin moments but as the story is coming to an end they have one more issue they must face together.
Please share if you can and as always I adore your comments under each chapter. <3

The trailer healed something in me omg. I love them so much
no cause same
i literally had to resist watching it in the car with my family cause they’d take me for a crazy fangirl but the way i giggled watching it in my room
this season means so much for me as a plus size woman who grew up being bullied
penelope featherington reminds me so much of myself and seeing her being pinned after by colin and lord debling makes my heart melt, she deserves every bit of happiness life has to offer
season 3 is going to be the best season MARK MY WORDS!!!

Polin Modern AU Fanfic Request pt.2
I don't know if anybody's fulfilling these fan fic requests, but I'm back with another one.
Trope: Enemies to lovers and fake friendship
Background/Backstory/Setting:
Just like the first one, Pen and Colin are actors. They are working on a very successful romantic tv series together where Colin is the charming second male lead that is bound to never get the girl, while Pen is the funny, chubby best friend of the female lead. Everything is fine at first. A few people ship them based on the few scenes they had together, but the fan base of Colin and the female lead, Cressida, is stronger and larger. Shit hit the fan when the executive producers starts to notice Pen and Colin's chemistry. Pen is given longer, wittier lines, writers gives her character depth, making her more relatable, complex. Penelope falls into her newer, more active role with ease with the help of Colin and the veteran actors of the show. This did not sit right with Cressida, most especially her fans, who thought Pen is trying to steal Cress' spotlight and thus, they start a hate campaign on Pen.
Colin is quick to defend Penelope, who is very grateful for his support. Unfortunately, the fans turn their hatred towards him. Colin refuses to defend himself, but continues to defend Penelope and it irked Cressida more. She wants Colin for herself. Using an alt account, she starts to attack Colin's girlfriend, Marina, and the rest of her horde followed suit. After a long battle with horrid fans who doxxed her, stalked her, commented malicious things on her socials, and with Colin refusing to stop defending Penelope no matter how she begs him to, Marina breaks things off with Colin and moved on with her life.
Hurt by the break up, Colin regrets defending Penelope and let that fact slip one time when he is in a particularly nasty mood and Pen is being her bubbly, caring self, asking him what is wrong. Since then, Penelope and Colin's relationship becomes icy. They act friendly in front of the camera and in front of everyone, but when they're alone together, if they aren't ignoring each other, they are slinging barbs at each other.
How they get their heads out of their bum-holes is completely up to you.
Important note:
Colin is truly a kind person and he feels guilty getting angry with Penelope about the Marina fiasco. He didn't really regret defending Penelope against her detractors, but he wishes he had done a better job at it. He also feels guilty about Marina, she is a good person and she didn't deserve what happened to her.
Penelope has a little crush on Colin and is hurt when he told her it was her fault that Colin and Marina broke up. She tries to destroy her feelings for him, but her heart can't help but skip a beat whenever Colin defends her, something Colin still does even after they become sworn enemies.
Pics for attention. They look so good.
