Schmoop ficlet: Xander/Cordelia (PG)

[brutti_ma_buoni]

So, you thought I was done with schmoop, huh? Nope, just taking a break. I have an almost complete bingo line, and ambitions to do some extras with my new card. But I've also signed up for fall_for_sx and (shoot me) Remix Duello. So there may be another long pause before resumption of schmoop...

Oh, bless. I do love your Cordelia, and this is full of win.

[brutti_ma_buoni]

Aww, thanks. I'm very glad she's alive, let's say!

[brutti_ma_buoni]

Yep, this is very much an accident. But they are getting to the point of accepting it, and even being happy.

Oh Cordy. Not my favourite of characters but I really feel for her here. I'd completely forgotten about that first pregnancy until you wrote it into this fic.

And I love her support of Xander through his own fears.

The treatment of Cordelia as a womb-for-plot-delivery is by far my least favourite aspect of AtS, even if the second time around was necessary due to RL baby. So it seems right to think about the state she'd be in mentally if she did survive. But then, Xander's damaged too. So they need to support each other.

Lovely schmoop. I've decided to be safe, I'd best fill at least one line of bingo, just it case it all goes pear-shaped between now and the deadline. And, I also signed up for fall_for_s/x. At least that was all I did. You are a glutton!

[brutti_ma_buoni]

Mainly, I write fic because it's fun and positive and creative and many good things. When life isn't going too well, I sign up for more and more fic... It's a retreat.

I think the Duello may be a little more stressful than I need my retreats to be though...

Oh, I'm all gooey now. That was lovely and funny and and a little bit sad. I want to wrap them up in a big fluffy blanket.

*g* As it should be. Schmoop with just a little edge!
