Anne Gilbert - Tumblr Posts
You know what would be interesting? If Gilbert's father had married Marilla after Gilbert's mother died and Mathew still decided to adopt a kid when it became clear that Gilbert won't be a farmer. I'd love to see how living under the same roof would affect Anne's and Gilbert's relationship.
You know what scenario I'd love? If Anne and Gilbert hadn’t been able to sort out their misunderstandings and Gilbert became ill with typhus like in the books. He writes her, thinking he's dying, to let her know she's loved by him, because he cannot bear to die without making sure that Anne doesn't have to live a single day without knowing how wonderfull and loved she is. He sends his mother's wedding ring with the letter as a reminder of his love and because she's the only woman he'd ever want to wear this ring.
And because I'm a sucker for angst with a happy ending, Anne rushes to his side and nurses him back to health.
