Lots of sighing, longing for the past,
And acts of over-dramatic blue,
But, overall, a sweet tale of lasting love,
It'll be four feathers for you.

Anne Elliot is the queen of palpable longing, covert glances, and needing to excuse yourself for a moment to go cool down after seeing your old love for approximately .5 seconds. Although to be fair, I too would have needed to be tranquilized after reading Captain Wentworth’s letter. Like, “I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own, than when you almost broke it eight years and a half ago”?!? “You pierce my soul. I AM HALF AGONY, HALF HOPE”?!? Somebody fetch me some Xanax.
