its not a trend
First of I want to say that it is in no way me bashing Julia Quinn. She has wrote a popular book series that she managed to put on the screen and for that she deserves alot of respect.
BUT
The books are a hot messes for many, many, many reasons, the three last one are ok but still quite questionable.
(I am obviously in no way claiming to be a better writter or that what I'll do will be good but I decided to rewrite and change what I didn't like and what I think could do better. )
Important information about this rewrite :
As I had hard time with honestly any of the love interest, ESPECIALLY, the boys one (with the exception of my boy Gregory, you were boring but cute) and that I felt like the women character had honestly a waste of potential I will change all of them a LOT. I will also rant about why I didn't like them in the first place.
As the books are so messy I also consider the series as canon and I have a lot of confusion about the way the society and great experiments was done ?! Like honestly WASTED potential.
This will NOT be historically accurate my dear friends purely fictional as I'll state multiple time.
Hello pleasure to meet you all !
My name is, honnestly, whatever nickname you cancome off with this blog and my pronouns are they/them :)
I'm part of the epic museum sys ( discovered as off November. It's actually not even the right person writing this ). So this will all get updated soooon
This blog isn't a place where I intend to be the most active (barely understand tumblr lol) but where I'll talk about my writing and rewritting stuff !
I also already want to apologize for like all the grammatical fault I'll do, English isn't my first language.
My first rewriting project will concern the Bridgertons, more on that here :
X and here X
(Quds) Three newborns died in Gaza due to extreme cold as Israel continues to ban entry of mobile homes and tents.
The good news about this is that I'm getting TONS of idea for my rewrite lol
I didn't even watch a full episode and WTF ?!? ELOISE ?!? YOUR NEW BFF IS TELLING YOU THAT SHE'S GOING TO GET ENGAGED TO A GRANDPA ?!? Why aren't you doing anything ?!?
Like that is character assassination

Dear Cressida,
you will NOT guess what is happening in the ton.
Dear Cressida,
I know that my talents at founding gossip do not exceeds yours but I think you'll love what I heard at the Featherington bal.
Deat Cressida,
if you had a brother what would you do if you thought he was falling for a maid ? No I am not talking about-
And you slowly see the tension builds as Cressida doesn't care about the gossip she wants to hear about ELOISE thus making a slow transition were in the end we haven't goy any gossip anymore.
Every MAGA accusation is a confession.
We do not see much politics in the Bridgertons but as sexism exist you cannot brush over or make racism disapear in what 40 years ? I try to be sensible about but as I am a white individual I might make mistake and apologise if so and will correct it.
At first we would still keep the same hierarchy of power than the one in real life and, I assume, in the show.
Secondly let's talk about THE thing that changes everything in the Bridgertons : the Great experiment.
The Great experiment appeared for the same reason than show in Queen Charlotte but it's a bit more subtle. It was introduced mostly so Charlotte could marry the king George but never did the royal councils intended to actually give more power to the "other side" of the society. Even if people could now get invited and participate in activity didn't mean they'd be invited or treated well.
Queen Charlotte is actually the one who shacked things up, after mostly focusing on her marriage at first she slowly woke up and saw that despise what was said her own were still being rejected and treaded unfairly. By attending Lady Danbury ball, she shoke things up. When some titles were left without any heir she would think first of giving it to the "other side" (that's how Simon's dad became Duke) etc.
Even thought the Queen Charlotte promoted tolerance things didn't completely work out that way. The "original" Ton felt jealous and left alone and while they couldn't reject the other side at the more little scandal possible they would directly reject a familly. And while young did marry racized Lord it was almost UNFATHOMABLE that an eligible white Lord would marry a girl of colour. It got a little better but there is still a lot of pression on racized people. A few Lord did actually mary girls from the "other side" the most known one being St-Clair, Abernathy and the Sterlings leaving a lot of preassure on their children because they represent this new kind of union and must be perfect. So it is a big deal that so many of the Bridgertons will have union with people of the other side as they are one of the most old and respected familly.
