    Summary

    Gilbert Blythe is not exactly a take-notice kind of guy.

    Which, of course, doesn’t mean he doesn’t take notice, he just keeps it to himself. He likes details, and he loves to keep them pressed onto his mind and heart, for himself only to appreciate. For instance, he adores the way hands are made precisely to intertwine, or the way sunflowers turn towards the sun by themselves, or also the way snowflakes are so undeniably perfect, or the way Anne’s freckles are scattered exactly like little stars, not one of them being out of place.

    He notices it all.
    He simply doesn’t share it. Until.

    Summary

    "When the lamps are switched off, he stares at the ceiling until his eyes adjust to the dark, and absorbs the sounds of the night: the kids laughing outside the building, the neighbors to his left listening to music, the thunder of footsteps in the hall as other freshmen enjoy their first night of independence. As he drifts off, he thinks about the hush of nights at the orchard, and wonders if somewhere in this noisy building, someone else is already feeling homesick, too. "

    It was autumn when Gilbert lost his father. It was autumn when he met Anne.

    Summary

    "maybe knowing that he had always tried to be her friend underneath all the misunderstandings, maybe it scared her to realize that in a world full of everyone trying to leave her, he had only ever tried to stay."

    ~ the train scene from 3x02 that we all deserved, with a generous helping of fluff~

    Summary

    They say she's a gold digger. She killed for a piece of land. She married for money. She's trollopy, vain and mad.

    They say he's changed. He has been doing God-knows-what-and-where. He came back for gold. He's debaucherous, murky and crude.

    Avonlea is a rotten place. So they say.
