The show briefly showed Drummer in charge of a small poly crew.

SirSamuel@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoI can’t remember if the show did it, but in The Expanse books poly relationships were part of Belter life, especially on smaller ships

It did: they gave Drummer Michio Pa’s story in the last couple seasons.

On Earth too! One of the main characters (Jim Holden) was raised by a poly family with 8 parents on a ranch in Montana.

if I’m not mistaken, belters are poly because they looked being really close and personal in a ship, while Holden’s family was more because legal issues and land rights. Holden’s family wasn’t a normal thing on earth, while Belters polycules were like the norm for Belters.

It’s written differently in the books vs on the show. On the show it’s definitely more of a legal thing for land rights
