Awwww! I still love reading this ♥

She flashed the smile she knew could convince a drowning man to give her his only floatation device.

So true lmao Angel was under that thrall many times :D

Thanks, Nikki. Cordy did affect Angel in many different ways. Most of them good. ;)

I'm gonna try and do this without gushing, but you know - you might want to slip on the boots, just in case....:P

I love this. It's so quiet and companionable, if that's a word. You have *such* a talent for getting their voices down. The way Cordy backhands her compliments, and that way of cracking open Angel's broodiness until he smiles...just a little. Just enough.

The image of his hand shaking like an addict, it's a little moment but it shows without a lot of words where Angel's at, and thus how far Cordelia will take him after that. It's perfect. I hope you write more, there's not enough fic from you. *bats eyelashes*

Thanks, bb. I like the addict moment as well. For me, it speaks to Angel's need for violence and his uncertainty about what his future holds. So thanks for noticing it and feeling it. And Cordy...what else is there to say? She's the queen. :D

I know this can't be canon, but it feels as though it should be - just slotting in perfectly to where their relationship starts to develop. Great view of the characters and where they were at this point in time.

(Though I do slightly want a Cordy in Bakersfield/Xander in Oxnard AU...)

Thanks for posting!

LOL! That would be an interesting AU and now that you've put it out there in the universe, no doubt someone will write it.

Thanks very much for your comments!

You're so perfectly in Cordelia's head, it's impressive!

Vuitton makeup case + duffel bag, again it's so perfectly her... And the Easter Parade line? I could hear her voice.

Oh well, I think you guessed I loved it ;)
