Jan. 3rd, 2019 01:37 pmFred and Gunn are my forever OTP! From Angel: The Series, the first show I was really, actively fandom fannish about.
They were a sweet, uncomplicated relationship that came out of two characters just organically falling for each other. Like Tara and Willow, and of course like Tara and Willow, Joss had to ruin everything. I refuse to acknowledge what happened with Wesley, which tarnished ALL THREE OF THEM. Never happened. It was Wolfram & Hart.
Fred and Gunn are somewhat a precursor for Wash and Zoe on Firefly; she's the Wash and he's the Zoe, though, and now I just realized that pattern is the black character is stoic and the white one is quirky-fun and ugh, Joss, you and your patterns.
But whatever, I love them, I love the version of them I fell for and hold on to despite whatever happened later. Eating pancakes and going to the ballet and being ridiculously beautiful. Season 5 never happened, they ran away together after Jasmine and are living happily in a small town somewhere, hunting vampires on the weekends and being in love. Maybe with a couple of cute babies: Alonna, Cordelia, and Angel.
Amy Acker and J. August Richards are still adorable, supportive friends to each other on Twitter, and I shamelessly use that as Fred/Gunn shipping by proxy.
