I just got a weird AU idea what if Gilbert was smol. But like really smol. Like, he’s from a kind of really tiny people who aren’t different from us but just way more little. And they live in the walls and steal things from us.
What if one day Gilbert go in Ivan’s house, as he already did several times, to steal some things, but Ivan catches him. Because he’s really picky about details and noticed that some of his sewing supplies were disappearing, and he’s the type of guy to believe in spirits and stuff like that. But Gilbert is scared and doesn’t trust him when Ivan says he’s not going to hurt him so he manages to escape but get badly hurt when going in the street, and Ivan brings him back to his home and take care of him and then Gilbert starts to trusts him more and more and they start bonding ?
I can also imagine that Ivan met him the first time when he was hurt, because Gilbert was actually escaping an other house where an human made him prisonner and was actually mean to him.
Idk which I like better.
