Just watched Persuasion because of all the gifsets you reblogged. The letter scene is some good shit 👌.
IKR!! I'm gonna gif that scene as soon as I get the chance! Definitely considered top 3 of 'sexiest' scenes of Austen's work. PERIOD. The utter release in tension and swelling of feeling. The dual narration, reading the same words that go along side one another and sometimes collide/overlap into each other. Frederick's voice fading out for a few moments to let Anne's a reprieve before joining back in to finish off the letter. All done in a rushed whisper. UGH.
