When the team goes to apprehend a Rising Tide hacker, the last thing they expect is to find a seven-year-old girl living alone in a van. And Coulson certainly didn't expect to end up falling in love with the precocious girl. Little Skye needs someone to actually care about her, and Coulson and the team might just be the family she's always dreamed of.

John Gilbert spends an afternoon with his daughter, Elena. It may not be much, but he'll take it.

John Gilbert has watched his daughter grow up from afar. Only now her life is starting to wander off track, straying into the dangers that he'd hoped to get her to avoid. And he doesn't like it. (Neither does Isobel.)

John and Jenna talk about life in their High school days. Set during 1x18, after Jeremy, John and Jenna eat.

My interpretation of when Elena read John's letter.

He fundamentally misunderstood her. Isobel/John.

John remembers the girls he loved. (John/Jenna and John/Elena)

John and Jenna work to save Elena from beyond the living.

Watching a rapidly lightening sky, seeing light peek shyly over the horizon, John spends his last moments alone.

John Gilbert knows it's his last chance to make everything right again. One-shot. Spoilers for 2x21, The Sun Also Rises.

AU: Elena looks down at the body on the ground. "I…I killed someone," she whispers.

John shows up and all the sadness gives way to anger.

This is how Founders Day would have gone if John who is majorly OOC had any remote capibility of being a good guy and/or a good father. Delena!

Elena was his daughter, his little girl. At the end of the day he was willing to do anything to keep her safe. A look at John Gilbert's character and what makes him tick. Tiny D/E...if you squint.

season 2 episode 13 We weren't shown the whole conversation of John G. and Damon S.

There really is nothing funny about the situation Caroline's made for them.
