When Tim And Lucy Finally Announce They’re Dating To Their Colleagues:

We know Elijah is coming back and Wopez can't be anywhere near his case. Hence, I am a bit relaxed about Chris' return. I guess he is just coming as an ADA and not to stir drama in Chenfordland. Because if he even thinks of doing something stupid to harm my Chenford babies. I promise to eat him alive!😡

P.S. (I f***ing hate Chris, but Kanoa is just too yum!🤤)

never beating the pookiest ship captains allegations

Please don't kick me out of the Chenford fandom.

But with all the Gelan/Nolgen shipping going on, I would like to put forward my two cents. I have listed a few reasons below on why I like Bailan:

1. I just love the trio that consists of Bailan & Celina. Bailan have almost adopted Celina and their interactions are cute and funny. They make a perfect "found family" just like Chenford and Tamara. (I would say even more so than the latter. Because Lucy is more like an elder sister to Tamara.)

2. Bailan have stopped grossing me out with their overtly immature sexual talks (I am no prude or anything, but I was not a fan of season 4 Bailan's talks).

3. Though Bailey is way out of Nolan's league yet they kinda complete each other. Bailey compensates for Nolan's cluelessness as she is shown as more of a sorted character.

4. Season 5 Bailey is not a superhero, she is more human.

5. Bailey's heartfelt proposal on episode 5X05 left me in tears. Yes, I am a sucker for relationships where the ladies taking the charge. Bailey deserves to be happy and if she found it in Nolan, i want her to have it. Seeing her take that step in spite of her traumatic past is a good message as it gives hope. 😇

6. Finally my ulterior motive is to see our Smitten Kittens (Chenford) dance on Bailan's wedding as a committed couple without any pretence of "owing each other dances".😌

I can't wait for Tim & Lucy to get married. Timothy Bradford is going to be such a wife guy. He will give Jake Peralta (Brooklyn nine-nine) and Jim Halpert (The Office) a run for their money. No one can argue against this.😌

BACK HERE AFTER AGES...🫣

Tim Bradford is definitely a 'thigh guy'!😈

The Rookie cast at the SDCC2024 Red Carpet!!!😍

TIM BRADFORD & LUCY CHEN THE ROOKIE Season 6, Episode 2, "The Hammer"

Don't ya just love it that in numerous fics and theories Chenford have finally crossed that line in any number of ways...

Near death experience (either separately or together), torture, hostage situation, trapped in an elevator or other enclosed space, Ashley & Chris actually creating jealously, Tim actually making the decision to break up with Ashley because of his feelings for Lucy, Lucy breaking up with Chris without Tim's guidance, being held at gunpoint, having a certain serial kilker come back and take revenge on Lucy/Tim, being set up by half the precinct, being slaves to the Christmas tradition of having to kiss under a parasitic sprig of berries and leaves... I could go on.

And in the end all it took was an undercover operation.

And then this man putting them back working together again.

Ladies and gentlemen, Wade Grey.

The unsung hero of Chenford.

Assigned them to work together as Rookie & TO.

Suggested very strongly that Tim pick Lucy as his aide.

I'm just saying.

*Watching the Rookie S5 ep8*

I love that instead of traditionally impulsive Lucy it's Tim - Mr Cautious Tightly Controlled Tim - who is the one to say, "Let's do this. Let's take this risk. I think it's worth it". Firstly, it shows how Lucy has changed him, but also, it shows just how much he cares
