#anne with an e spoilers
Smooch
the development
Prissy Andrews running out of her wedding with four other girls running behind her? Iconic.
Feminism is Prissy Andrews leaving her dead weight fiancée at the altar, to run and play in the snow with her friends like fairies.
prissy go get that college degree, honey! you’re free, child; maybe you’ll also get a personality while you’re there, I mean you finally got balls, so it’s never too late
when cole came out to anne and her response was soft and kind, not in the way of “I’ll learn to love you anyway” but in a way the affection never feels the weight of the word “despite”. in that moment delusion washed over me and i felt as if she was speaking to me, i felt as if warmth and light filled me inside. I want to thank the show for producing such scene.
Anne Shirley, probably: if nobody looks at me with heart eyes at least once throughout the whole day it just means the day isn’t over yet.
Ruby:she’s right she has done the math and the scientific tests
we know gilbert is the king of heart eyes, but I’d like to nominate diana as queen because when anne was fake proposing to ruby, i could almost see diana’s heart leap out of her chest
gilbert may want to be a doctor to save lives but for now he’s sticking to murdering professor pedo in front of the whole class, that’s what I call priorities
diana’s struggle with accepting aunt josephine and gertrude’s relationship as romantic wasn’t one out of bigotry, it’s because she herself is a scared baby lesbian with compulsory heterosexuality holding her down. she’s afraid because growing up in a conservative family, her future was decided for her, and she never once questioned it. you can clearly see that in a scene with cecile chaminade—piano is her passion, but when cecile suggests it as an actual plausible career, diana is startled and at loss of words because it was never even a possibility for her. same with romance—she was always expected to marry a man and be a good wife to him. it was common knowledge, an accepted truth, never something to argue with, which is why the realization that it doesn’t have to be like that is so terrifying to diana. it makes her question everything she had known and felt up to that point, makes her think that maybe she does want something else in life, maybe she actually has other options, and it keeps eating at her like this tiny little voice in her head—but it’s new, and scary, and would undoubtedly change everything, so she denies it, dismisses it as “unnatural” and tries to tone the nagging little voice down, but it just won’t work
