They actually took the BEST male love interest in all of the Bridgerton universe and made him into a woman destroying both his and Francesca's characters and arcs going forward.... Like I'm sorry but the gender roles Michael and Francesca have are integral to their story... The infertility, Michael inheriting all of John's estate and title....and the guilt that comes with it. They even give him John's old clothes to wear

Regardless if Eris marries Nesta out of ambition or love, one thing remains the same: He doesn't push her to have sex with him or get pregnant. He's not a saint, but he's decent enough to prefer when a woman actually WANTS him before sleeping with her.

Nesta was raised to see children as another duty to fulfill once she married, and after Nyx's birth, she has some heavy feelings about pregnancy, and she tells Eris that much. He respects it and agrees to wait until she's ready, until she genuinely wants to be a mother. When they sleep together, they both take precautions and make sure to not take risks.

Eris has no problem arguing with Beron if the man tries to pressure Nesta into giving them an heir, making it one of the few times he actually fights his father back. And that's the first time Nesta imagines herself having kids with him because seeing him standing up like that for her sake made her feel things

If they get married out of love, this process is even smoother because they just enjoy their time together by going into a long romantic honeymoon, away from everything. Eris has brothers after him, so it's not like he needs to conceive a child urgently, and Nesta always wanted to see the world first. It's only years after their marriage that they finally take that step, because Nesta begins to imagine her own family with Eris really often and the man is downright having a baby fever because of Elucien's kids.

The moment they start trying, they barely take breaks from it. They take this matter very seriously. Nesta falls pregnant within the month and gives birth to twin daughters.

For the love of god Helena coming up with a bad lie such as night gardener is NOT A PLOT HOLE.

“Oh she had so much time why didn’t she come up with a better backstory?”

1. She actually DIDN’T have that much time. I swear it’s like y’all weren’t paying attention to episode 2 and actually think it’s been 5 months. Mark asks the board for his team back and they all show up the next working day. That’s like an evening to prepare, (it’s night when they have that meeting being like “the board will give him what he wants) maybe more if it happened to be a Friday and she had a weekend.

Even if she had been toying with the idea of going to the severed floor before then, it wouldn’t have become an ACTUAL plan until Mark called the board. Because it was all last minute I don’t think it’s improbable for Helena to be improvising more than people seem to think.

2. She’s rich and out of touch. Night gardener sounds like such a rich person lie to me, like even the fact that her first thought was gardener just feels rich.

3. She doesn’t think the innies are real people. The managers of the severed floor treat them like children. Why would she need to spend time making an elaborate lie for these lesser beings who are easy to fool?

4. She’s never interacted with innies in person before. (That we know of) Watching them on a camera is different from being in person. I don’t know what she expected but she may have not expected to be asked so many questions in the first place (what was on the shirt, what was on the tv etc.)

5. She’s kind of distracted by wanting to jump in to a romance with mark. Along with all these things, we also know she is jealous of her innie for what she has with mark, and wants to experience it. She has her own emotional objectives getting in the way of whatever other objectives she has.

6. She’s an Eagan. She’s used to people of lower status than her listening to what she says without question.

Ultimately Helena seemed unprepared because she didn’t think she needed to prepare THAT much and she didn’t have the time anyway.

Also?!! It almost worked! Mark was distracted and Dylan was distracted and even when Irv pointed out it’s an odd thing that sounds like a lie they both dismissed it!!!!

oooh wait so the plot hole of “why doesnt a spirit medium just channel the victims spirit” is literally bc the DL-6 spirit channeling cant be repeated huh

I could get over Cassian not saying “I love you” to Nesta. The much bigger issue to me is that he doesn’t even think it.

Despite my issues about Lottie’s death, I still do think we should see the season through before dismissing the show completely. I think the show has shown itself to have strong writing and ability to explore the characters and we know Lottie’s story will be continued throughout the season, culminating in ep10. So even though I still doubt it will be perfect and I think the show should have walked us through it after having sufficiently explored her character (there’s also room to talk about how this relates to her as a woman of color and a schizophrenic character), there’s still room to work with it in a way that parts with her character in a satisfactory manner (like take Nat’s death which was extremely disliked when the episode released but with them, it’s made more sense and is understandable from a narrative perspective).

what's so interesting is that agatha and nicky clearly had their cons well-oiled, and at the end it seems they even started turning their song into a part of it as well, like i don't think that was the first time nicky sang that song for an audience and they used it to lure witches (i do think it's the first time that it /technically/ didn't work), and how after nicky died it continued to gain popularity and be so well-known it became a legend, and along with that agatha being known as the only survivor of the road and people (like billy) seeking her out to walk it or just for knowledge of it. and i think that had been the idea when they first started using it as a con. making it so they no longer had to travel and scavenge, using it as a lure to bring the witches to them in order to keep nicky alive, but only one small misstep and rio got him anyway

and then thinking about how lorna, who had a generational curse placed upon her family that is going to kill both her and her daughter and who desperately wants to see her daughter survive, heard this song and created her own version to use as a protection spell for her daughter and, like agatha did before her, she made her version so well-known and so popular that years and years after death it's still protecting her daughter, until ultimately her daughter was finally able to use it to break the curse and save herself

idk just.. they're like two sides of the same coin, or distorted mirrors of each other

agathas love was so powerful and so strong that death gave nicky time

lornas love was so powerful and so strong that the ballad gave alice time and even freed her

if nicky hadnt been taken that night, could it have eventually freed him as well? rio said agatha used the dark magic of the darkhold to hide herself from rio, so was that the end goal? they'd continue to lure witches to both keep nicky alive and to have agatha become powerful enough to forever keep them hidden?

[sidesteppostinghours]

ok. question.

ortega ended up hallucinating sidestep after they "died", but sidestep doesnt know about that. they know it got bad, but never the full extent of how their death affected them. so if your sidestep Did learn, if they found out ortega looked for them in every little piece they could, would that change anything for your sidesteps? would their relationship with ortega be any different?

I’ve seen someone say that Annabeth had a good home situation but she was too prideful so she pretended it was really bad and I was like lmfao y’all are reaching so bad it shows they have no reason to hate her so they’re making up their own reasons
