People make me want to defend Angel. Though it wouldn't really be defending Angel so much as iterating that Buffy isn't just a mindless puppet, devoid of her own wants and desires.

Well, there're lots of good things about Angel. He certainly means well, even if he gets it spectacularly wrong sometimes.

He's wrong quite often. It's less a yay!Angel vibe so much as a just because one doesn't like him doesn't mean everyone around him are his victims vibe.

The OP is a response to a strange meta about how Angel pressured her into everything and she only did it out of desire to feel normal. No, she did it because she *is* normal. The rightness or wrongness of said doing is another discussion.

Is that meta on tumblr?

And yeah I don't see it as Angel pressuring Buffy at all, he was certainly manipulative with her at times, but there's no indication that Buffy was pressured into anything
