Okay but seriously the movie has the goal to show us that Violet should let go Gilbert and realize that Diedrich loves her, right??

I mean even her friends talk how Diedrich could help her to forget Gilbert and then her last letter to Gilbert. Yes, she loved Gilbert. Maybe she even still loves him but they both changed so much and in all these times Diedrich was there for here.

Maybe it is only one-sided but I'm sure Diedrich loves her and I think he is the better man for this new Violet.

What are your thoughts on Gilbert and violets romance? Personally I think it's a bit dodgy because Gilbert has known violet since she was little and basically raised her but I'd love to hear your input!

I’ve been answering this question a lot over the past three years, but since it’s gotten far behind in the tag, here we go again. Sorry for the wait and sorry that it’s so long!

To sumarize my thoughts on this ship: it’s complicated. I’m not fully comfortable with it to this very day. Everything in it has a justification, but I can’t help being creeped out by some aspects of it. Still, I try to give it enough credit because they honestly can only match with each other.

First and most obvious of all, Violet was 10 when she and Gil met. He felt nothing for her other than protectiveness and slight attachment back then, which is a green light to me. Their love is a fate thing, so he has no say on this matter and he knows it. He also didn’t like the idea at first, which is hilarious if you ask me, and his love for Violet is the most asexual thing ever. Knowing that she’s very beautiful and appreciating it is one thing, and being sexually attracted to her is a whole different matter. As far as the story goes, Gil was not. I don’t know if he is now, but if he is, he’s a master at not showing it ever.

Gil also spent those 4 years raising her and trying to be a father figure in her life. Didn’t work at all because he sucked as a dad and she didn’t see him as one no matter how hard he tried, which was also hilarious. But he still tried to see her as a daughter and was undebatably her guardian until they started dating. He always talked to her in a parental way up to the point of their reunion, and also arranged for her to be adopted by his relatives, so even though the Evergardens are a somewhat distant branch of the Bougainvilleas, Violet was still his relative by law the moment she joined the family. Kinda off-putting, but he had no choice since he had no friends other than Hodgins, and Hodgins didn’t live a life decent enough to take care of Violet back then.

There’s all of this, plus the fact that they’re 15 years apart. That’s a very big gap and I’m hardly comfortable with it, but any shorter than that would’ve been too conveniently unrealistic. Gil would be too young to be influential in the army (he was already too young for it at 25) and Violet would’ve been at a much higher risk of being assaulted if she were any older. Then again, this is the smallest issue. The biggest one is the technical incest. But again, Gil was completely out of options.

That’s it! It’s a complicated ship but not controversial. In fact, they actually have a very healthy relationship. I can’t really ship it 100%, but I also can’t bring myself to cheer for any other character to be with either of them. In the end, GilVi is the only choice I can truly support for these two, because no one else would have accepted Violet at her worst, and no one else would have been capable of bringing color into Gil’s life.

Gilbert x Violet

No matter what happens....i still think gil and violet as ship or couple is big flaw of the novel. the fact that in the whole volume 1 they were addressed as Parent, legal guardian, daughter just makes it clear it’s dad and daughter relationship

He literally raise her up, give her name, become her only family...all this is what our parents do to us. Lovers doesn’t give you names or raise you. I really hope violet won’t get ruined by that because a lot will see it as “Pedophilia” even if she grows up. It’s just wrong. And i think they deserve better and fit more as daughter/dad relationship. Because he literally supports her. It’s just more than the age the idea that he take care of her and raised her just make it impossible for them to fall in love in that way. Normally

She was a child. And we all know that children fall in love easily and admired anyone ( even if they were bad ) in violet case she doesn’t know that different kind of loves exist. I just hope violet will not become bad influence later. That’s the only thing that might makes me hate him. How come this changed?!! 👇🏼

Literally everyone saw her as object to him in dirty matter too and then he suddenly felt something but then clearly said he wanted to act as parent...that’s just makes gil a fucked up adult if he married her or become canon

He should have acted as the adult he was. And explained to her clearing everything up.

When he said he loves her before he died i bet a lot of us thought of it as parental way.

I just read that they MAY fall in love?? I’m disappointed. Well...i’ll just try to understand Violet :”) and accept it
