There are so many people critiquing this and all are conventionally attractive girls that have had boys chase after them. They do NOT understand, crying in your room and begging yourself not to fall in love cause you know how it ends. You know how it always ends.
You can tell by the reaction people have to Penelope asking Colin to kiss her whether they ever experienced being a wallflower/insecure fat girl at a party or not.
Because you say it's pathetic, I say it's relatable, no matter how desperate it may sound. If you've never had your insecurity eat you up from the inside (but also the outside, as Portia literally told Penelope that she was delusional for thinking she was gonna find a husband in her third season out) to the point you genuinely, wholeheartedly believe no one will ever love you unless you physically change, then obviously the scene is off to you.
But Pen literally told Colin she felt stupid for thinking she's gonna find a husband (she just started believing what the ton and her mother said) and that she knows no one would want to kiss her. And for a romance girl like her, do you think the thought of never having a kiss, never experiencing that passion, would be easy to bear? I can so relate to being the most romantic of the bunch but also being the loneliest and aching for physical and emotional romantic love.
She is so vulnerable and so real in that moment but y'all gotta bitch about it because it doesn't make sense to you. It doesn't make sense to me either because she's gorgeous, but that's the thing - no one ever told her she's gorgeous and actually meant it. And even if they did, there must be 10 more people who didn't that keep that insecurity in her, specifically her sisters and her mother.
Nicola said this one was for the wallflowers, and it truly is, so if you find scenes like this cringe, you just don't relate to the character enough to feel it and recall moments when you had the same thoughts as her.

Bro what the actual fuck? Stay safe my writers. You are needed so we can remember the history.
🗣️🗣️WRITERS AND FUTURE WRITERS, PLEASE LISTEN UP❗️❗️
i saw a few tiktok videos that was very concerning to me and i decided to share some of the knowledge i got because as a community of people who freely write things about characters, we need to protect our work. i have sadly forgotten the name of the tiktok users but if you guys scroll upon it, please let me know so i can properly credit the people.
GOOGLE DOCS IS NOT SAFE❗️apparently google created this AI that allows them to see your google docs documents, fics, works, whatever is in there, let an actual human read it and have it used in an AI without crediting the original writer. so if you use google docs, please watch out for any suspicious new buttons or notifications asking you about allowing access to your documents
THEY GOT THE AO3 WRITERS AS WELL❗️apparently some thieves i am NOT calling them people because who with moral compass would do this shit? are copying, pasting and printing out popular fanfictions on AO3, binding them, turning them into actual books and selling them on places like Etsy WITHOUT crediting the original authors. which is why we can’t find some certain popular fics or authors on AO3 (credit to tiktok user sakuradarling)
TUMBLR IS SELLING OUR WORK/PROMPTS TO THIRD PARTY WITHOUT CONSENT❗️i think i came across a post or two about it. i think my mutual @livelaughlovesubs has reblogged a post about it. check it out and turn on a switch on your blog settings that prevent this. stay safe and protect your works writers
spread the word everyone, because… genuinely what the fuck?

I've never kissed anyone.
And I really want to kiss this girl. I have the biggest and the most embarrassing crush on her. Pressing my lips against hers feels like a dream honestly.
How tender and soft the first peck must be. Followed by endless nervous and giddy giggles.
If you've had a first kiss. What was it like?

Women with suspenders, ties and long chains are everything. It makes me want to pull them in by their accessory so close to my mouth. Smile teasingly against it. Wait for a little giggle to escape their lips. And then kiss them into oblivion.

I'm so glad to find someone that relates and understands. And it does feel like you're not supposed to have it. AND if you ever do, you should be ashamed of it. I'm excited for this season to give me a few moments where I can throw that thinking out the window and HEAL. and I do desperately wish we get more such characters with more such stories.
Season 3 Bridgerton Polin
I've been wanting to discuss this with someone. So please comment down and we can have a discussion about this if you want.
I think watching polin, especially their love scenes, will heal something inside of me. Being a fat girl, I've never seen a fat girl in steamy scenes apart from hypersexualization and fetish. Either the fat girls are depicted to be hypersexual, or only for romantic love or for neither romance nor sexual scenes.
And being a person that rarely ever reads smut or enjoys talking about sex. I've also had so much difficulty in picturing myself having sex with someone. Even if I know I'm incredibly attracted to them. It feels dirty to me.
I'm genuinely so excited for this season to air and Penelope to be LOVED and MAKE LOVE to a person that loves them back and is attracted to them body and soul.

I saw Annabeth running towards me, and Grover trying to stop her. This was an unusual sight.
"Hello Annabeth how may I help you?"
"Grover is in love with you and has been for a few years. I have tried to encourage him to tell him but since that doesn't seem to work. This is the last resort. Now both of you please deal with this."
Annabeth hastily left, leaving both me and Grover speechless. A few other campers were looking at us wide-eyed. We both stared at each other for what felt like an eternity. I could not find any words to say to him.
"I'm sorry, I didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable. I just- I didn't want this. Can we pretend like it did not happen?" He left before I could stop him.
I ran to Percy "Hi, could you please help me? And not tell Annabeth till tomorrow?"
"uhhh with what?"
"Could you send Grover To Thalia's Pine after dark? Don't mention my name either, else he won't go"
"What should I say then."
"I don't know just make sure he is there."
I waited for him near the tree, reciting what I would say to him in my head.
He saw me and was about to run away again, "Oh no. Absolutely not."
"Do we have to talk about this?"
"Yes because I don't want to pretend nothing happened."
"What do you mean?"
My heart sped up, and I grabbed his hands. "I mean, that I like you too." He looked up at me with a stunned expression.
I could feel my face getting hot "No I love you. I have for a long time."
Grover looked into my eyes which made me want to look away. He stroked my cheek. My hand was on his neck slowly moving to his curls. He kissed me and the kiss was interrupted with hearty giggles.
"You could have told me this morning, the last few hours were torture."
I laughed "You ran away, should have stayed."
"Never again."
"Never again."
I kissed him in the moonlight, it was everything and more. The kisses were filled with love, smiles, and blushes.
"I love you," Grover said to me.
"I love you too."

Summary: Your best friend returns after a long time and maybe the time you have been away made you realise a few things about your feelings towards him. Did it do the same for him?
Warnings: My first fanfic, NOT A BOOK READER, so events and misinformation could be a lot, Swearing
Pairings – Grover Underwood x reader, Annabeth x platonic!reader, Percy Jackson x platonic!reader
PART 1
“Did you know there’s a new kid in the camp? He killed a minotaur!” You heard a group of half-bloods loudly discuss this interesting news, way too loudly.
“Wait, is it- does he have a-” I looked at Annabeth hoping it was the kid who Grover went to protect. I haven’t spoken to Grover since he left, which was a few years ago. We both became close after Thalia, Luke, and Annabeth joined the camp. He told me about everything, he knew a lot. Listening to him talk about Pan and everything nature was my favorite activity to do. He would tell me about different creatures. He would tell me about herbs and their medicinal properties. Flowers and their meanings. Gods. And him. The last one was my favorite.
“yes he has a satyr protector, yes its Grover”
“Oh.” Grover. I had been waiting for him for so long, and now that I knew he was here I didn’t know what to do. What to say to him?
“are you not going to meet him? I thought you leave as soon as I said yes”
I laughed “I do want to meet him but he is probably tired, also he probably is going to show Percy around first”
“Percy?”
“it’s the new kid, Grover told me his name before he left.”
“Ah of course he did.”
“Do you think it could be him? I’ve seen you watching him.”
“Maybe.” Her gaze shifted to a boy standing near Chiron and Mr. D. I saw Grover run behind him. Grover. It was a little daunting to see him after this time. Like watching a movie, you loved as a kid, and were desperately hoping it was as good as it was before.
“You want to go to the woods? Or stalk him a little more?” Annabeth gave a death stare that shut me up. She was like a little sister to me. A dangerous one though.
I walked alone to the woods. There was a little canopy made by a few oak trees which I loved to sit beside. Grover helped me carve it to perfection and since his departure, it has been a space where I could feel at peace. Grover and I have been best friends, but it has almost felt like a breakup since he left. I’ve had my friends move away while I lived in the mortal world, and never see them again. This feels exactly like that. I just don’t want to feel like we are strangers, maybe this is why I’m running for him.
The bright sunlight peeks through the trees, and the wind rustles the leaves. It was a beautiful sight. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath soaking all of this in.
"Hey"
I didn't need to open my eyes to know who it was, I remember his voice well enough. "Grover. Hi."
"You still come here?" He sat down beside me.
"Of course I do, it's still my favorite place. People are so awfully loud in the camp." I looked at him, and I finally completed processing he was safe. For years I was worried something might happen to him.
"Percy killed a Minotaur."
"What?" I knew it. But I'd rather hear him tell me the whole story
"Yeah! he- I he killed a Minotaur. He lost his sword too mid-fight and he jumped on his back. Pulled off a horn on its head. I'm not even joking. I know this sounds like I'm making it up. The Ares Cabin does not believe he killed a Minotaur. Imagine telling them this story. Yeah, so he pulled off a horn, stabbed the monster, and killed it. Before that, he killed a Fury too. Like, this kid killed a Fury and a Minotaur in less than 24 hours." His eyes sparkled like they always did when he started rambling about something he enjoyed.
"Oh God, maybe this is the kid Annabeth has been waiting for. Did you keep the horn?"
"Of course I did, this doesn't happen very often now does it."
"No of course not which is why the whole camp found out about it two hours after you arrived."
"You knew about it?"
"That the kid killed a minotaur? yes, that he jumped on the monster's back and pulled off a horn and stabbed it to kill it? no"
We both looked at each other, Grover kept silent like he was hesitating to tell me something. "Tell me, Grover."
"What?"
"Whatever it is that you are thinking about."
"It's kind of deep and sad."
"Yeah, and I can only deal with rainbows and sunshine."
"Okay! So his mom, Minotaur got a hold of her and she disintegrated. You know, kind of like Furies do when they die. In no sense am I saying I have watched a mortal be killed by a Minotaur before? But it didn't seem....right. So I was thinking about it and maybe...."
"Hades."
"Yeah."
"Yeah you could be right, but it's a maybe. Just be careful whatever you do with this information." I looked at him, and I realized this was probably the first time I had looked at him since I realized I had fallen in love with him. "So you're not showing the kid around, that's like your favorite part."
"He doesn't want to see me."
"What? How's that possible, everyone loves you."
He laughed "I had to get him kicked out of the school, then his mom died cause i was getting him across."
"It was not your fault, and he will come around. If he doesn't then he is stupid."
He nodded "So what's up at camp. How's Annabeth? Luke?"
"Camp is the same, everyone's favorite part of the day is when Mr. D yells at someone. Chaos is everything. Annabeth is still on the watch for the kid that will go on the quest, which right now appears to be Percy. And Luke. Well, he found his glory, the best swordsman in camp."
"And you?"
"Me? I am spending my time switching between hobbies and talking to Annabeth. My uh siblings? I guess were helpful-"
"Siblings? Did you get claimed?"
"Oh yeah you left before that, ta-da i got claimed."
"WHAT? Who? No i want to guess! Uh- Athena?"
"Nope"
"Aphrodite?"
"Nope"
"Dionysus?"
"That was ONCE. GROVER. ONCE. I got drunk once and you are going to hold it over my head for eternity."
"But you drank a lot, A LOT. It took almost twice the amount of wine to get you drunk than what I saw Clarisse drink."
"Ugh Grover please don't- anyway back to-"
"ARTEMIS?"
"You really should stop guessing, I got claimed by Apollo"
"Wow, that makes sense."
"Your guesses were nowhere near it."
"How did you get claimed? And when?"
"She actually got claimed right here." Annabeth threw her arms around Grover.
"What? Really?" He looked from Annabeth to me.
"Actually not exactly here, but nearby. She saw it."
"She actually ran away from this spot so no one finds out about her quiet place. Well I came way too late, I saw the blinding light for half a second but she looked like she was made of gold."
"What were you doing to get claimed?"
"Nothing," Annabeth replied hastily.
"Nothing what do you mean nothing?"
"It's what she always says, she doesn't know what made Apollo claim her."
I have a fair idea of what might have made Apollo claim me, but it's far too embarrassing to even say it aloud. It was just a few months after Grover had left, and his absence had made me realize quite a few things. I realized I had fallen for him, and that maybe I might never see him again. Those few weeks were really hard on me. And Annabeth at that time was using her time to become a skillful warrior. This made me take a few skills and one of them involved guitar. It was an instrument I learned before camp and felt safe to pick up again. I would come out here every day and play a few tunes and leave I was far too scared that the children of Apollo the God of Music and Poetry might see. I felt insecure because of their talents and was content being my own audience. That day I had started humming along to a tune, unlike other days where I would stick to songs I had learned. I began to sing whatever came to mind, and as cheesy as it may sound it was Grover. I liked what I wrote and felt proud of it so I continued. As I developed further into the song, I was interrupted by Apollo who had claimed me. I immediately feared this would lure people into this quiet safe place so I bolted. I ditched my guitar behind a tree and made a run for it. People luckily only saw me quite a few miles away from the canopy. But I'm not gonna admit this to anyone. Everyone still thinks I have no capability except humming to songs very very quietly.
