#i have always thought that in-universe and in the fandom people come down far too harshly on gunn for his part in fred’s death #he signed a piece of paper #he SIGNED A PIECE OF PAPER #THAT’S ALL #he didn’t know what would happen #he didn’t know fred would die as a result #and if he had known #does anyone honestly think that he would have signed? #HE LOVED HER #he loved her so much he was in danger of losing his soul to her #do people even comprehend how huge that is? #to love someone so much you are in danger of them owning your soul #so no gunn would not have signed that piece of paper if he had known #and his guilt after fred’s death is so huge #so debilitating #so crushing that he chooses to stay in a hell dimension where he has his heart ripped out every day #he cannot punish himself enough #which is fine because everyone else is doing it for him #wes FUCKING STABS HIM #wes in all his self-centredness and his own grief ignores the fact that gunn loved fred too #that gunn loved fred just as much #that gunn is hurting just as much #gunn who stepped aside and let fred go because that’s what she needed #stop crucifying him #just stop #everyone in the angelverse fucks up #everyone in this show makes mistakes #why is charles gunn the one who seems to pay the most?
