Jack didn't need Gwen to show him his humanity; he was already on intimate terms with it and didn't even realize it.

I was reading Cry of the Space Whale when I wrote this, so that's where my inspiration came from. Thank you!

Gwen coasts along, having it easy because no one expects her to make the kinds of choices Jack can't avoid making. It's got to the point where Jack has become convinced that he IS a monster. People have told him he is for years, surely they can't all be wrong? He certainly FEELS like a monster.
We know that he's not, he's just doing what HAS to be done - if he didn't, the consequences would be so much worse. Gwen just thinks everything will work out fine because she's too naive to understand that they can't always save everyone, sometimes there are no good choices, all Jack can do is decide which choice would result in the fewest deaths.
