Fred/Angel aesthetic ship board <3 I posted the Darla/Angel one a little recently and I still have a couple others to make. Eventually I'll try to make a set tag for all my edits and moodboards at a later date.

winifred burkle + angel

send me an au and i’ll give you 5+ headcanons about it

 - they meet in a ptsd group meeting. fred’s a survivor who’s been going to meetings for months, and angel just got there and he’s not even sure what he’s supposed to do in there. but he listens to her talk and her story and he feels so much for her. she’s the only person he talks to after the meeting is over. basically only time he even opens his mouth that night.

 - they take things very, very slowly. angel bc it’s the only way he knows how, and fred bc she has Responsibilities™ and she’s kind of reluctant to be in a relationship in that point of her life. they both almost call it quits like 10 times before their 3rd date bc they’re never 100% sure, but then they go out again and have a really great time and it’s so Soft so they keep going back for more.

 - angel was married before ((darla)) but it didn’t work. fred wasn’t. she was engaged for a long time with the father of her kid before he passed. it’s difficult for both of them to talk about their previous relationships, so they agree to just ignore it, and act like it’s their first relationship ever - fred’s idea. in many ways it does feels like it. and judging by angel’s awkwardness, she’d never have guessed it wasn’t angels first relationship if he hadnt told her.

 - it takes a while, but after the first time fred invites angel to her house, he never leaves. he’s never been anywhere more comfortable in his life. fred thinks it’s just words but it’s like Home to him, everything about it. the smell, the warmth, the noises, fred’s Food. i mean, sure, he was at war for a long while, so everything would feel like heaven in comparison but this is different. this is the real deal.
