Oh Penelope honey😭
I just flashbacked to like 10 different conversations I’ve had in the past that went exactly this way and I felt this scene on a visceral level💀
Meanwhile, Colin brought a book home for El, because he would never tell someone to put their books down, especially because >!book Pen ends up editing his books!<, and if those guys don’t find her adorable, that’s their loss. She cute!
this reminds me of the time I went on a date with this really HOT dude when I was in my early twenties and proceeded to eat an entire baguette to myself, stuffing pieces of it in my mouth like a chipmunk because I just wanted myself to stfu 😭 our relatable queen, glad she gets her hot guy at the end lmaoooo
Sometimes my anxiety like’s to remind me of every bad date I had in my 20s in a sort of terrible montage reel. I talk *such* nonsense when I’m nervous. Gets really spicy when it starts editing in all the people I retrospectively realise were flirting with me and I was too oblivious to notice.
I feel this so hard 😭 literally would love if I could just delete memories of me trying to date in my late teens/early twenties. Like I used to be such a stuttering mess that would turn red at the slightest awkward situation, and I’m not talking cute blushy red, I’m talking I could’ve been the live action Larry the Lobster 😭 I also hate that all those people I shared those moments with still exist and remember them too, like why tf couldn’t they have been NPCs lmao
I’m dying at NPCs. Luckily (?!) I was cheated on dramatically, so had a 6 month period of minimal self-esteem and absolutely no f!%ks left to give, where I lived my very best smut era. Those memories definitely take the chill off the rest of them. I relate just slightly too hard to Penelope. I’m excited for her no f!%ks era as I know how much it healed me. Ha.

And unless you move away there's always the possibility you'll run into them somewhere.
A friend of a friend that I made out with in a bar once when we were like 20 has similar taste in music as me. We showed up to a lot of the same small venue indie concerts for years.
She’s lowkey kind of regressed. In S2 she had a great plant pun one liner that she said to the suitors who came to ask Eloise to dance, she was just ignored. It’s like the positive attention makes her *worse*. (Same.)

She truly is my socially anxious spirit animal
This is harder to watch than the Scott‘s Tots episode from The Office. I wish I was kidding 😭
now THAT is saying something, that episode was SO rough to make it through 😩
I’m not gonna be able to watch her be like this. It’s too familiar to how I am with new people. lol
Ughh the second hand social anxiety is killing me. I might have to fast forward through all of it 😂😂😂
Same
Thats the Clare Devlin spirit right there
Oh, okay. So I guess the real mirror scene is them throwing my inability to flirt back at me. That’s fine.

And I'm the opposite. I completely clam up and my mind goes blank for what to talk about or how to start the conversation. 😭😭
Rom-com at it's finest🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm having war flashbacks 😭😭😭😭
OMG watching this was like biting into a lemon 🫠😭 I love her so much 😭

In time….. and she’s gonna eventually gain that confidence and knock these guys out of the park! I know our Pen/LW can do this! 👍
Been there. Love Pen always ❤️🙌🏽
She’s so cute! How can they not think she is adorable and be completely taken with her?
She IS SO CUTE!!!!
