[ Cordelia groans. ] Ugh! You’ve got to be kidding. I thought this was all over! Are we seriously revisiting this again? The claw marks, the boils, the burns. But wings? Are we going to be attacked by some wild demonic bird now

[ Oh god. Happy doesn't even begin to express how relieved Cordelia is to hear that voice. If only he could see the big smile on her face. She can breathe a bit easier knowing her champ is here. ]

Angel!

[ Except, he is nowhere to be seen near her. Maybe this dimension brings people in but doesn't keep them together during their landing. Cordelia frowns. ]

Where are you?

Some place with trees. A wood? A forest? Should I keep walking until I hit a well or something that could give you a better sense of direction?

[ She'll get back to the fact that he has an apartment here. All she wants is to see him, just to know that she isn't alone in all of this. As much as she enjoyed some of her time in Pylea, the start of her journey wasn't exactly Cordelia friendly. ]

Okay. [ That gives her hope that maybe she'll come across something. Although, the thought of walking in the opposite direction of Angel does cross her mind and she kicks it out as quickly as it enters.

And she will, somehow, stumble upon the battle dome as she tries to keep an eye out for Angel, an eye out for danger, and one for something that isn't a tree. ]

Angel?

Stumbled across that not a tree thing. Dumb question, but do you know where the big dome-shaped building is?

[ Cordelia hears it. Her name and his voice. She twists around to see him running -

- In broad daylight. Is he a complete moron? Sun plus vampire equals deader than dead.

So Cordelia, unknowingly, copies Angel and drops her journal, running towards him to knock some sense into him while, hopefully, manage to save his life. She prefers him solid rather than ash. ]

Angel!

Are you completely out of your mind? You're in the sun! [ Stating the obvious. But the her biggest fear is losing him right after she's found him. Or, more correctly, after he's found her. ]

[ The bone crushing hug that isn't exactly bone crushing should alert her to the fact that something is a bit off with Angel. But, everything is forgotten as she can literally feel him. This isn't some big nightmare. She isn't trapped in some place like Pylea where she's going to be told she's a cow and be isolated from anyone who could potentially hurt her. That fear she had experienced - even after being crowned the ruler - is sapped away from her at the sight, touch and smell of Angel.

Hearing his voice through a book wasn't just a figment of her imagination - or worse, a deliberate trick. It was all real. As real as this place can be, she figures. She wraps her arms around him, relieved she has a good friend here -

And squeals at him lifting her up off her feet. It's so good to hear him laugh.

When she's settled back on the earth, there's a grin on her face. She looks him up and down, frowning. There's a lack of something going on here, considering they are in the sun. ]

Why aren't you burning up in flames right now?

[ When her palm feels his heartbeat, Cordelia gasps, frowning down at where her hand rests. It feels so strange, feeling that tiny ticker inside his chest actually ticking away.

She's lost for the moment in that tiny little pressure against her hand. Cordelia is at a loss for words, for once. She glances up at him then back at her palm. ]

You're - [ Cordelia smiles. This is what he's wanted, right? To experience a sliver of a moment of humanity? She isn't sure how to feel. Elation is the big thing here. If the corners of her mouth pulling a large smile on her face doesn't say it, Cordelia's constant flickering gaze from his face to where his heart rests - and the slight pressure she puts there because that feeling is so intoxicating - should hopefully do the trick. She's never felt so happy for someone in her life than she does in this very moment. ] - human?

[ She's quite in awe. Angel has always been this untouchable person - creature is possibly the better term, but Cordelia's stopped thinking of him as a something less than

[ A month. Cordelia feels a touch annoyed that she wasn't here at the start of this. She likes Angel - dead or alive - but she would've liked to have been here from the start.

But when he mentions that M word that had slipped her mind - the Malnosso - Cordelia can't help but wonder if there's a catch. Nothing as mind blowing as this happens without a consequence - especially for them. ]

How does it feel, though? [ The biggest grin ever. Honestly, she can't stop smiling. It's partly due to the fact that Angel has a ticking ticker inside his chest and he can enjoy the sunlight rather than shun away from it, and the other part - the huge, big ass part - is that he's here, all ten fingers, all ten toes - and ridiculous wings - intact.

And the big bonus is is that she hasn't blinked and he's faded away. Really, really big bonus. ]

Besides it being something the bad guys of this place gave you, it's got to be pretty great, right?

[ Her ego would inflate if she knew about the dragon. It'd definitely deflate if she knew the context of
