HOLD UP HOLD UP

This author was watching this for the bazillionth time for blocking notes and OMG

Colin's breath legitimately hitches after the first kiss (13 secs) AND THEN he's the one to initiate the next kiss (16 secs)!!

He is the one breathing her in like his life fucking depends on it (24 sec) and when they pull away THIS MAN TRIES TO GO IN FOR MORE (34 sec) BUT PEN PULLS AWAY

This man's whole worldview just shattered and this is the first time he has wanted to kiss someone like this and then SHE PULLS AWAY AND THANKS HIM. My poor boy had no choice but to be absolutely devastated. Sure he's kissed a lot of girls (or so he says) but NONE have ever left him reeling. NONE have ever made him wish there was more like this one.

I think this definitely goes with the theory that Colin is demisexual because my man has always loved Penelope. There is no doubt in that logic at all because it's evident how he cares for her. But the moment that man's lips touched hers, he knew he was IN love with her. Colin is extremely in touch with his feelings and the minute he felt that tug of his heart, he was destined to be down bad.

He already loved Pen's mind but society reinforced that she wasn't a prospect for him with every little comment. Every sense of social norm went out the fucking window after this kiss for Colin. All he knew is that he loved Penelope Featherington and fuck anyone who was going to get in the way of what he wants.

Polin Fic Recs - Cute Comfort Rereads

Sunshine, sugar sweet, cuteness captured in words. My beloveds.

1. Dance Card by Katie_500, Stillpink

Mature. Regency. Complete. 36,712 words. I believe this was written with the specific intent of exploring a world in which S1 Penelope is a guest in Bridgerton House for the London marriage mart season while the rest of the Featheringtons are occupied in another town. Pen feels loved, supported and listened to by the Bridgertons. Lots of unchaperoned time with Colin is the cherry on top. Polin are sweet, innocent and no touchy, but that doesn't mean they aren't thinking thoughts. Puppy love Colin is oblivious and insecure, but it is a HEA.

2. where art thou? why not uponeth me? by maxmayfield

Mature. Modern setting. Complete. 5,001 words. Under 1 hour read. Colin meets Penelope during their first creative writing class at university. They are friends for months before dating. Aware Colin Bridgerton. Sabrina Carpenter's song Bed Chem was on a loop in my head while reading this.

3. My Fairy Lady by rottentiger

Teen and up (rating may change). Regency. Work in progress. +10,000 words. Penelope is a tiny fairy and Colin accidentally traps her in his bag while in a forest in Ireland. When he returns to London he discovers her. Unable to immediately return her to her homeland, Colin promises to care for her until the end of the season. Penelope is a ray of sunshine. They are both so tender and kind to each other it feels like I am being sprinkled with fairy dust.

4. Dancing Around the Truth by WeepingFromACedarTree

Explicit. Regency. Complete. 60,167 words. Set post-S2. Penelope's family leave town and Pen is alone at Featherington House. Pen falls ill with a potentially deadly fever. Colin throws the propriety rule book out the window and stays by Pen's side caring for her.

5. U Up? by DollyPop, Stillpink

Mature. Regency. Complete. 36,709 words. Set post-S1. Sexting Regency style with racy letters exchanged between Colin and Pen. I was giggling and kicking my feet the entire time.

Bridgerton Masterlist

The stars sparkle especially brightly tonight, the crimson lanterns guiding Parisians and tourists alike through the winding streets, and Colin Bridgerton stands in awe of it all. 

He’d read stories, heard tales of this place during long nights at Whites, but nothing could have quite prepared him for what lay ahead of him, a long string of lights hanging in the sky leading the way to his destination. 

The Moulin Rouge. 

A house of debauchery and sin, of freedom and truth, filled to the brim with bohemians and artists and beautiful women unlike anything or anyone he’s ever seen before. Even now, 30 feet away from the illuminated windmill, he can hear the music and the joy spilling out from the building. His senses are filled with the perfume of hundreds of women passing him by the minute, all with real, toothy grins he rarely has the pleasure of seeing back home. It is far too impolite to be so happy in London society. 

Colin steps forwards, his boots crunching against the gravel and his coattails flying in the breeze. His shoulders brush more wonderfully merry, positively inebriated partygoers on his way in, catching odd fragments of conversations that would have scandalised him and his whole family were he elsewhere. 

But he wasn’t elsewhere. He was here, in the city of love, away from anybody who had ever known the name Bridgerton. His clean slate clutched close to his chest, waiting to find out what will be written on it next, Colin feels the fresh air on his face for the last time before his life is changed forever.

The heat hits him first, a symptom he knew all too well of too many people packed into a small space. But unlike every ball he’s been to, this doesn’t feel claustrophobic or fusty. It feels alive. 

There is a feast for the eye wherever one looks. Burlesque dancers showing off stockings and garters by kicking their legs up, toes pointing towards the aerial hoops holding acrobats hanging from the ceiling. Gentlemen, if you can call them that in this state, wearing top hats, arm in arm with their glasses raised high, spilling their contents all over the wooden floor. 

The music blasts loud from each instrument the band masterfully pluck or blow or bang, but laughter and conversation buzzes amongst the melodies. It is a near overwhelming amount of joy, one Colin certainly could use a drink to wash it down with. 

If he could just find the bar…

Bodies fill his view, so entangled in each other it is difficult to tell where one starts and another ends. Frilly skirts flow over the knees of suits as ladies dangle from the necks of patrons, sharing cigars and passing around bottles of an unknown green liquid. Rosy cheeks as far as the eye can see, wether from too much of that green stuff or the exertion of all that dancing, Colin can’t be sure. Between them all, in tiny empty spaces, he can just about make out rows of bottles and glasses. 

Weaving through the crowd is like treading through water, but their energy and joy seems to rub off on him. There isn’t a dance card in sight, women choosing their partners themselves whenever they like with a freedom Colin isn’t sure he’s ever seen before. Is this truly what people are designed to be when they are free?

Eventually, his hands find the sticky wood of the bar, quickly lifting themselves back off it on instinct at the sensation. When Colin looks to his left, he sees a woman pouring a shot of liquor between her breasts, a man knelt below her waiting to lick it back up, and he quickly realises why the bar feels so tacky- every surface here seems to be host to someone’s revelry. 

“Welcome to the Moulin Rouge, monsieur. Can I get you a drink?”

Colin’s attention is quickly pulled by the welcome, his gaze snapping to a tall French woman dripping with red jewels that compliment her rich brown skin perfectly. She is captivating to be sure, deep hazel eyes commanding Colin’s attention, competing with the most incredible curls of hair he has ever seen. Ladies of the ton are welcome no matter their race back home, but Colin has never seen a lady allowed to wear her hair so beautifully natural before. The Afro framing her face has more tiny rubies that sparkle under the cabaret lights, and Colin is speechless. 

“I…uh, pardon me, Miss, I-“ he sighs, giving up entirely at his failed attempt at decorum, “Is it so obvious I have never been here before?” 

She laughs, gems twinkling as her head shakes with mirth. 

“Not at all, but most gentlemen who have been here before know to wear a top hat. And there’s that look in your eye…” 

As she speaks, she pours out one finger of the green liquor Colin has spotted a few times already, sliding it along the wood towards him. 

“Wonder. Drink this. It will help with the nerves.” 

Colin looks down, finding himself fascinated with a drink that seems to glow of its own volition. He has smoked blends and meditated with world weary travellers from across the globe, drank tea containing unknown substances that left him staring at blades of grass as if they held the worlds secrets, and yet this… whatever it is, seems to terrify him.

The barmaid laughs again, that melodic sound with the real joy Colin very much enjoys. 

“It’s only absinthe, monsieur. Loosens the inhibitions, relaxes the body…” she explains, pouring a second out for herself and lifting it to him as if to prove her credibility. 

“Santé.” He toasts to health.

“Amour.” She toasts to something far greater.

It leaves no room for argument, and all Colin can do is lift his own glass and tap it against hers. 

It burns his tongue, leaving a fiery trail down his throat as he swallows and tries not to cough and splutter. A bitter yet herby anise flavour fights with his taste buds and seems to seep straight into his mind, teasing at those tense knots that held him back from fully immersing himself here. 

When his eyes eventually reopen, he finds the barmaid beaming at him, unphased by her own potion. Rather used to it, if she shares a glass with every newcomer, he should think.

“Be careful, though, monsieur. Many a man has spent a night with the stuff and swears he fell in love with a fairy dressed all in green. Ruined him for any other woman for the rest of his life…” She speaks words that belong in fairytale, with a tone containing such severity Colin is inclined to take every single one of them as gospel. 

“I dare say I should be careful, then. I do not think this green fairy would want to join the rest of my travels when she can instead entice all of Paris’ men to sin…” 

The residue of the liquor smells just as strong as the full measure, which Colin tries to blink out of his senses when he puts the glass back on the bar.

Almost as if society itself had cleared its throat at him, Colin remembers himself, remembers just where he is. Undoubtedly the most unique establishment he had ever set foot in, but an establishment all the same. 

“I beg your pardon, miss, I seem to forget myself. How much do I owe you for the drink?”

She considers him.

“Hm,  the absinthe I think… for you, a kiss.” 

Colin, already pulling coins from his breast pocket, pauses, a little grin tugging at the corner of his lip. The francs clink together when they fall back to the bottom of his pocket, a long forgotten currency of the past. It’s a perfect reminder of just how different things are here, how easily walls crumble between strangers and connection is offered so freely. He has never kissed a woman he has not paid for back home, so afraid of getting too close to another in case they ruin each other. Here, a beautiful woman leans over the bar, offering her flushed cheek for him to softly press his lips against. 

And he does. 

And it is lovely. 

“If any more handsome men capture the eye of Mademoiselle Belle, I will surely be out of business!” A loud, hearty voice pulls Colin from one blissful moment back into the party.

He regards a rather large man, clad in a red tailcoat and stunning golden waistcoat. His top hat, near the same to all the other gentlemen in the room but somehow grander, tops wild orange curls that match a fantastic handlebar moustache. A true ring leader to this wonderful circus of debauchery Colin has found himself in. 

“Harold Zidler, at your service. Welcome to the Moulin Rouge.” 

“Colin Bridgerton.” He replies, offering a hand that Harold seems bemused at. Unsurprising, considering what passes for currency around here. Nonetheless, Harold shakes the offered hand. 

”I must say, your establishment is rather…” he hesitates, unable to find a word in any language he has picked up along his travels that quite captures the Moulin Rouge. Perhaps he could blame the absinthe, or the intoxicating hedonism he feels rooting its way through his mind, hidden in the brass notes from the band and thrown with each cancan kick of one of the dancers that surrounds him. 

Luckily, Harold seems well used to this phenomenon. 

“Isn’t it? And you have seen nothing yet! I assume you are not from around here?”

”It is rather obvious, I have been told.” Colin adds a glance to Miss Belle, who’s skirt frills bounce in the lights while she shakes up a cocktail. He adds, “London.” 

”Well, Monsieur Bridgerton, I promise you that what we have here in the Moulin Rouge is unlike anything you have back home in London.” 

Colin’s eye is caught again across the room, as a beautiful woman with blonde tumbling waves spits a drink into a man’s mouth. 

“I am inclined to agree with you there.” 

It truly is unlike anything back home. Colin has travelled across Europe and back again, seen incredible sights and met wonderful people. He has felt that ease that distance from London society and its unwritten laws and social rules that bind him back home can bring. He’s seen beauty and felt freedom and thought he might have found truth somewhere along the way, but it pales to whatever is contained within these four walls. 

In truth, it couldn’t be farther from London society.

”Just wait until you see my Diamond, Monsieur.”

… Perhaps not. 

Intrigue hits Colin as Harold pulls out a pocket watch on a brilliant gold chain. 

“Your diamond?”

”My Sparkling Diamond. The main attraction of the Moulin Rouge, my most sought after little chickee.” He speaks proudly, with a mist in his eye Colin normally finds on ambitious Mamas at grand balls, secretly trying to auction their daughters off to the highest rank. 

“I do not believe she is booked yet for tonight…” Harold adds, that mist darkening, disappearing, leaving a shiver stuck between Colin’s shoulder blades.

Not because this Diamond is a courtesan. Colin is hardly a stranger to the profession, and he bears no judgement. In truth, he admires the women he has been known to spend the night with, finding the courage of living outside society so freely quite brave indeed. No, that shiver came from Harold entirely, Colin just cannot figure out why. 

Harold excuses himself, though makes sure Colin knows to stay for the show, and Colin orders a whiskey on the rocks, insisting on paying in cash this time. Though singular in person, he has never felt less alone in his life. Looking around, there isn’t an empty chair in the house. If there were, there wouldn’t be room to put it down for all the dancers and patrons enjoying every ounce of the world they can. Music played straight from the soul ringing in his ears, Colin could make out every instrument. The lights dazzled in his eyes and the spot caught him every so often, lighting his drink up in his hand like golden ambrosia. 

And then, darkness. Silence. 

A single spot, though the mirrors scattered around catch the light and illuminate the faces of the people around him. Everybody is looking upwards, as if they all know she is coming. 

Even if he did know, Colin could never have prepared himself for what he saw when he looked up.

Who he saw.

The Sparkling Diamond, shimmering high on a swing hanging from the ceiling. 

The most beautiful, breathtaking, person he has ever seen. In any city, on any continent in the world. 

Crimson lips part as each and every person hangs on the breath she takes.

”The French are glad to die for love…”

don't forget to vote in the poll for your fmc!

[moirindeclermont]

This is a new episode of "all Polin first times we didn't see" and these is a mix of stuff, including at least one request.

It's after Pen has giving birth, some months have already passes but Colin feels inspired that afternoon. He can't read, can't write, all he can think about is how much his gorgeous wife is looking absolutely ethereal in the new dressing gown - blue Bridgerton of course.

But he knows that Pen would look even better naked. So with that goal in mind, he closes the door of the studio in which both him and Pen are working at the moment. No distractions allowed. The baby is in safe hands at the moment and they have a couple of hours before dinner. He'd love to have more time for what he has in mind but it will do.

Pen now follows his eyes with interest, and when Colin is now in her space, she gets up. Colin very carefully proceed to put everything in order until the desk is empty. Then, he methodically removes her dress, stay and camisole until she is naked. He kisses her deeply before lifting her up (Pen does squee in surprise at this) and puts her on the desk.

He remains dressed, because he is not important right now. It's all about her. His Goddess. He kisses her again, and then he explores every inch of her body with his fingers. The lips, the curve of her neck, her back, her gorgeous thighs, her absolutely breathtaking breast - even more now that she is feeding their son - where her nipples are already leaking. He has plan for those buds, but before he needs to go down on her stomach.

When he is there, he kisses her womb. He murmurs a prayer in thanks because she is safe and healthy as well as their son, before going back up with his lips, catching her nipples along the way. The looks at her, a question in his eyes but Pen knows already and trust him with her life so she nods, and Colin start to suck. He is surprised that her milk is warm - but more than anything, he marvels at women and particularly Pen, because what she did with their son is nothing short of a miracle.

These couple of hours are just about her. After she is wriggling for the emotion and the arousal his actions are causing her, he goes on his knees to taste his absolution. He opens her legs to make space for him and firstly he kisses her all around, before truly eating her with lips and tongue until she cries out loud and make him feel like a giant for making her feel so much pleasure.

When he knows she is close, he aids her with his fingers, like he did in the carriage and during their first time, until she is coming loudly. But he is now done. Nit even close. He wait for her to calm down, before starting repeating the same cycle. All over again. A second time. A third time. By the fourth she is collapsed on the desk, can't move, can't think, she can only feel. And when she comes that time, he gets flooded by her sacred juices, re-baptized in her name.

It's sinful to think as much but he can't help himself. He comes untouched in that moment, in his breeches, and he cleans her up wit his tie, before redressing her.

"What about you?" She asks and those are the first words beside moans she has spoken since they have started. Colin looks at her "it was not about me" but he agrees that she can do it to him too one day. In the end, every Goddess needs her own God.

What is a first you want me to write about them? (And if you want to play a game, how many first did I include?)

Married life offered no shortage of laughter and the occasional playful jibe for Colin and Penelope. It was something the pair were well accustomed to throughout their years of friendship, and whilst most of their barb remarks were directed at unknowing Lords and Ladies of the Ton, they still threw a few at each other, enjoying the small grin and childish eye roll they’d receive from one another.

While Penelope often took jabs at Colin’s tendency to eat everything in sight or the fact that sometimes his high-spirited character reminded her of his little nephew Augie and made her question if he really was the age of four and twenty, Colin preferred to hit back with jokes about her height, or ‘lack of’ in his own words.

It just came far too naturally to Colin, especially when he knew that, compared to Penelope, he stood more tall and commanding than ever. He just couldn’t resist making fun of Penelope’s petite stature. 

"Good morning, my little fairy," he said one sunny morning as they enjoyed breakfast in their sun-drenched dining room.

With narrowed eyes, Penelope looked up from her tea, glistening with amusement. Every day he surprised her with some new term of affection or way to show off his love, but Penelope knew from the devilish grin on his face that he was up to no good, and well, two could play that game.

"Good morning, my towering giant. How is the weather up there?"

Colin chuckled, leaning down to plant a kiss on her forehead. "Clear skies, as always. Just like my view of you from up here."

Penelope swatted him playfully with her napkin. "One of these days, Colin Bridgerton, I will level the playing field."

Hitting the napkin away with his hand, he only widened the grin that decorated his face. ‘’Perhaps a stepping stool will be needed if you wish to level the playing field, Mrs. Bridgerton. Shall I fetch the housekeeper?’’

-

At balls, Colin’s jibes only continued. He would reach for the highest canapes and hand them to Penelope with an exaggerated bow. "For my darling wife, who needs a bit of elevation in her life."

Penelope would roll her eyes, though her smile never faded. "Perhaps some elevation would do me some good. It would make me just the right height to wipe that silly grin off of your face.’’

‘’Pen! What a mean little fairy you are.’’

And if Colin felt the pair hadn’t laughed enough after a ball or a lively dinner party, he’d make sure to further their running joke when the pair were alone in their private sitting room. 

With Colin stretched out on the sofa, Penelope would get up to choose a book for them to read before they retired for the night, and as she’d get up, she’d see the clogs moving around in his head, knowing a silly comment was in the making.

"Need some help, Pen?" he called out, his tone teasing as he watched her eyes scan over the grand bookshelf.

Penelope glanced over her shoulder with a mischievous glint in her eye. "Not at all. I have got this."

Just as she said that, she fetched a small footstool (the one that Colin got their housekeeper to retrieve despite Penelope only exaggerating her want for one) and climbed onto it, retrieving the book with ease. Turning around triumphantly, she held the book aloft. "See? I do not always need your height advantage."

Colin laughed, getting up to join her. He wrapped his arms around her waist, lifting her off the stool and twirling her around. "Touché, Mrs. Bridgerton. But I must say, I quite like being your knight in shining armour, reaching things for you."

Penelope smiled, her arms around his neck. "And I quite like having you as my knight. Even if you are insufferable sometimes."

And their jokes weren’t just for the two of them; they even reached the ears of the rest of the Bridgerton family who were now all aware of and well adapted to the playfulness between Colin and Penelope. 

One particularly memorable afternoon, they attended a luncheon hosted by Kate and Anthony. As the couples lounged in the garden, enjoying the pleasant weather, the conversation turned to amusing stories of married life.

"Colin still loves to tease me about my height," Penelope confessed, leaning against her husband's side. "But I have learned to give it right back."

Kate smiled. "Oh, I remember the days when he would tease you mercilessly. It is wonderful to see how well you handle it now. There is nothing worse than a devilish husband; I know the feeling all too well.’’ She laughed, narrowing her eyes at her husband, Anthony, who sat looking as clueless as ever.

‘’What have I done now?’’ Anthony sighed.

Colin grinned, ignoring his eldest brother, and kissed Penelope’s temple. "She has always handled it well. And I love her all the more for it."

And as the sun set and the picnic drew to a close, Colin and Penelope walked hand-in-hand through the gardens. Colin looked down at his wife, his eyes filled with love and admiration. "You know, Pen, I would not change a thing about you. Not even your height. I think it is one of my favourite things about you."

Penelope smiled up at him, her heart full. "And I would not change a thing about you, Colin. Not even your incessant teasing...or your tendency to steal all my biscuits...or your...''

''Yes, yes, Pen, I think I understand. I am perfect and unchangeable.'' Another eye roll from Penelope later and they stopped walking, Colin cupping her face in his hands, bending down to kiss her gently. "I love you, my little fairy."

"And I love you, my towering giant," Penelope replied, her voice soft and full of emotion.
