I can’t stop thinking about this moment happening in season three:
Colin: *entering Anthony’s study* Brother, it seems that I may have … upset Penelope sometime before I left last season.
Anthony: How do you mean Colin?
Colin: Well she has been acting quite coldly since I have arrived back, and she refused to return my letters but I ——
Anthony: Colin, are you to tell me that you were sending letters to and unmarried lady? AND PENELOPE FEATHERINGTON NO LESS! Should anyone discover this correspondence you would both be ruined!
Colin: *raising his eyebrows* Oh please brother, you are one to lecture me on the forums of propriety. Speaking of, where exactly did you disappear off to after Mother’s failed ball last season? Was Miss Sharma not missing as well?
*pointed silence*
Anthony: Get out.
And 👆🏼this is the face I picture Colin making 😂
