You hate Christmas.

You’d probably get crucified if you ever said it out loud.

But it only reminds you of how your family can’t spend more than a few hours without going at each other’s throats, sharp jabs flying under the guise of strained laughter and reminiscing for old times' sake. You always seem to have gained weight, and your job always seem to fall short compared to your more "successful" cousins.

So you slip out of the noisy bustle of your childhood home. They probably won’t even notice you’re gone. And if they do—they might just feel relieved that you’ve taken the holiday blues with you.

Now you’re here, standing on a cliffside highway overlooking the city. The lights below are warm and inviting. Staring at them only makes you feel like an outsider looking in.

“What’s a kitten doing all the way out here?”

Your lips twitch at the familiar voice, the low, rich timbre of it instantly loosening the knot in your chest.

You don’t turn around or answer—or else you might cry. Instead, you keep your eyes fixed on the horizon, holding your breath as he steps into the space beside you.

“Wanna head back to the base with me? I heard Luke and Kieran are having a contest to see who can down the most mugs of hot chocolate.”

A hoarse chuckle escapes you, the sound foreign in the heavy quiet. You can almost feel the satisfied smirk tugging at his lips.

There’s nowhere else you’d rather be.

[Wren hummed thoughtfully as she followed Robin, making good on her promise not to run ahead] Wren: I wonder why she stopped writing. Robin: I don’t know. Wren: Do you miss her? Robin: Yeah. Wren: Do you fancy her? Robin: No… Wren: Do you fancy Levi? Robin: No. Wren: Do you fancy anyone? Robin: Not at the moment, I guess. Wren: Hmm-.. do you think Levi’s girlfriend is pretty? Robin: What’s with all the questions? Wren: You went all red when he showed you a picture of her. Robin: Well-.. you smell. Wren: Not as bad as you, swamp ass! Robin: You’ve got swamp ass. Wren: [scoffs] We need a really strong stick-.. or a crowbar! Robin: Let me pull one outta my swampy ass. Wren: I bet dad has one. Robin: A swampy ass? Wren: [laughs] A crowbar, stupid! He’s always banging on about how useful they are. Robin: He’s probably right. Wren: I bet he’d wanna get inside, we should show him! Robin: You’d have to grass on me for bringing you here first.

Truly unhinged behavior that Bridgerton has made a bee such a significant part of their branding and always put one in the premieres and finales and trailers etc etc when S2 showed plain as day that that bee was both a murderer and murder weapon. Like SIR!!! I thought this was a romance novel TV show with happy endings? WHY ARE YOU SHOWING ME A MURDERER???
