"I could soothe your ass off, pal."
Our Favorite Smooches
You're Welcome

Cordelia turns to leave Angel, but suddenly changes her mind. Angel hearing her say "One for the road." turns around smiling and kisses her. Cordelia rests her hand softly on Angel's face and they stand quietly for a moment in the embrace until the phone rings. He whispers that he doesn't have to get that, but Cordelia insists that he does. As Angel turns around to answer the phone Cordelia uses her last breath to say "Oh, and you're welcome."
Birthday

In this episode Cordelia is given the chance to realize her dreams of becoming a superstar. But not all is right in the parallel universe and even with fame and fortune she senses it. When she finds a clue to the world she had been living in she finds Angel alone in a dark room, suffering from the visions that were meant to be hers. As she gets down on her knees, sympathizing like she always has with Angel's needs, she leans forward and kisses him.
Waiting in the Wings

Angel and Cordelia take a night out on the town and entertainment takes the form of classical dance, or that was what it started out as. In the end, they stumble upon two souls of old lovers and they are possessed. In this particular heated moment Cordelia leans forward and whispers, "I'm only alive when you're inside of me." and while this scene may be an act, it's effects stay with Angel the rest of the evening.
Deep Down

After being entombed and sent to the bottom of the ocean, Angel's sanity is quickly slipping away from him and he starts to dream. In this dream he relives the night Cordelia asked him to meet her at the bluff, only this time everything is right. Cordelia looks out at the ocean and remarks that the sceneic area is beautiful. Angel's gaze never waivers from her as he replies, "Yes... It is."
Parting Gifts

First kisses. There's nothing like them. Full of lust, want, and desire. Unless you're Cordelia and Angel. In this case Cordelia has just been promoted to Vision Girl and she is doing everything in her power to get rid of "it". Cordelia presses her lips to Angel's and he quickly pulls away, claiming she is acting out of greif; an act we would all agree he regrets later down the road.

"I've got you."
Season One
Cordelia: "Are you still all... Grr?"
Angel: "Yeah... There's not actually a cure for that."
Cordelia: "Right."

- City of...
Angel: "Cordelia, do have any idea just how precious you are?"
- Sense and Sensitivity
Angel: "You got peanut butter on the bed."
Cordelia: "Really? I don't think so. I'll look. (goes to check; walks back in) Angel, at some point in the recent history you got peanut
butter on your bed, and it's gross. I think you're gonna have to change the sheets."
Angel: "I don't eat."
Cordelia: "Well, then I don't even wanna know how it got there."

- RM W/A VU
Angel: "Cordelia, I'm gonna fix this. I promise. I'm gonna get you back. I need you back."
- To Shanshu in L.A.
Cordelia: "I never doubted for a minute you'd find me."
- Parting Gifts
Season Two
Cordy: "Yeah. We all got a little cocky, didn't we? It's gonna be a long while until you work your way
out - but I know you well enough to know you will... And I'll be with you until you do."

- Judgement
Cordy: "See his file? (Angel leans down as if to get a better look at the screen but instead starts smelling Cordy's hair)
He has Visa, MasterCard and a problem;
he's our target audience. But if you want to be rude, I guess it's your shop... Angel? (Angel is touching her hair) What are
you…? What are you...? personal bubble. (she jumps off her chair and away from Angel) Personal bubble!"
Wesley: "I need to speak to you, man to man. Cordelia, you may not want to be here for this. Was it something I did?"
Cordy: "He was feeling my hair."

- Dear Boy
Angel: "What we were. And I also know what she's going through. And unlike me,
maybe she won't have to go through it alone."
Cordy: "You're not alone."

- Darla
Cordy: "What are you doing here?"
Angel: "I heard about Wesley."
Cordy: "Well, that's great. Too bad it takes a gunshot wound to make you give a crap. Wesley doesn't
need you right now.
We don't need you. You walked away. Do us a favor and just stay away."
(Angel watches her walk away.)

- The Thin Dead Line
Angel: "You took all the books."
Cordy: "Yeah, well, you got the waffle iron. Hey! No! You can't take this, I-I-I'm in the middle of it.
(Puts the book back on the shelf and shoves a phonebook at him) Here, take this one."
Angel: "Don't make me move you."
Wesley: "Give him the book, Cordelia. Just give him the damn thing! Let him get the hell out."
Cordy: "(Shoving the book to Angel's chest) Here. I don't even know what you are anymore."
Angel: "I'm a vampire. Look it up."
Cordy: "What a jerk."

- Reprise
Cordy: "I love you."
(Angel smiles.)
Cordy: "And you ought to do that more often."
Angel: "Buy you food?"
Cordy: "Smile."

- Dead End
Cordy: "Stop. Stop the fight. Don't hurt him. Stop. I love him. I love him."
Angel: "You love me?"
Cordy: "Not you, dumb ass! Him (meaning Groo)! I love him!"
Angel: "Oh."
Cordy: "Lay down your weapons! Silas is dead. All priests have been defeated. Any guard who harms a human from
this day forth shall have to answer to me!"
Angel: "You love me, too, right?"
Cordy: "Are you okay? Did he hurt you?"
Angel: "As a friend and co-worker."
Cordy: "Can I get some medical attention around here, people?"
Angel: "Maybe love is too strong a term."

- There's No Place Like Plrtz Glrb
Season Three
Angel: "Easy, baby, what'd you see?"
- Heartthrob
Angel: "Maybe he can make the noise stop."
Cordy: "Yeah."
Angel: "Isn't that what you want?"
Cordy: "Yes! No. Well, no. Sure I hate looking and feeling
like this, but - if I lose the visions, I wouldn't be able to
help you anymore. You wouldn't need me."
Angel: "That's not why I need you. You're important."

- That Vision Thing
Cordy: "Angel, what you did for me was unbelievably selfless - and brave, and amazing.
And it's so great to know that the next vision I have will just be blindingly painful and not turn
me into Elephant-man or anything."
Angel: "I hear a big 'but' coming."
Cordy: "But what if that guy you freed is someone or something that's truly terrible? Wolfram
and Hart won this time and it's all my fault."
Angel: "It's not about winning, Cordelia, it's about what's at stake.
And in this particular scenario you were way more important
than winning."

- That Vision Thing
Cordy: "She's got the big puppy love. I mean, who wouldn't?
You're handsome, and brave, and heroic (Cordelia notices Angel's
smug expression) - emotionally stunted, erratic, prone to turning
evil and, lets face it, a eunuch."
Angel: "Hey, how can you... I'm not a eunuch."
Cordy: "Angel, it's just a figure of speech."
Angel: "Find a better one."
Cordy: "I just mean that sex is a no-no for you. Because of this whole
'if you know perfect bliss you'll turn evil' curse. Really no cure for that, huh?

- Carpe Noctem
Angel: "I'm gonna miss her. She was just this nice, quiet kind of crazy. I found that - soothing."
Cordy: "And what? I'm not soothing? I can be soothing. I could soothe your ass off, pal."

- Fredless
Cordy: "Has someone been putting vodka in your blood?"
Angel: "(laughing) See? You're funny! And I, well I get off a good one
every once in a while, but you..."
Cordy: "Angel, are you trying to say you love me?"
Angel: "What?"
Cordy: "I love you too."
Angel: "You do? When did this..?"
Cordy: "(yelling) Angel loves me! I love him!"
Angel: "Oh, my god!"
Cordy: "You guys love us and we love you."
Fred, Wes and Gunn chorus: "We love you Angel."
Cordy: "They were all saying it earlier. Just in case this prophecy comes
true and we all die. You're not gonna wanna hug, are you?"
Angel: "(clearing his throat and shifting) No."
Cordy: "God knows we've been through a lot together."
Angel: "That's really all I was trying to say, that we've been through
so much together, you and me, as friends. You've seen the good,
and the not so good."
Cordy: "Just like you have in me. And for the record: the good
I've seen far outweighs the bad."

- Offspring
Angel spins around, yelling: "No, you're not listening! Cordelia is not a champion. She is a rich girl
from Sunnydale who likes to play superhero. She doesn't have what it takes to
do this! Don't the Powers get that? Stop whispering and listen to me, damn it!
She's weak. You're killing her. She's unconscious, and she's alone. Who knows if she's in pain?"
Voices: "It is angry. It is afraid."
Angel: "I'm more afraid of her dying than she is. What is that?"

- Birthday
Cordy: "You don't remember me, do you?"
Angel: "I was there. I wanted to die. But - but I was - was afraid to die. So afraid to die. One seven one."
Cordy: "Shh, Angel, it's okay. Everything is gonna be okay."

- Birthday

(Cordelia and Angel are lying in bed with Connor.)
Cordy: "I'm just saying a boat."
Angel: "No. College fund."
Cordy: "Yes. College fund and pay our bills and put a down payment on a boat."
Angel: "We're not getting a boat."
Cordy: "Hmm, they're fun."
Angel: "They're expensive. And when would I go on this boat, hmm?"
Cordy: "Moonlight sails. - Okay. - College fund - pay our bills - and rent a ski condo in Aspen."
Angel: "Ski condo?"
Cordy: "There's got to be some fun in our lives."
Angel: "Hmm - I like a ski condo."
Cordy: "Sure. Snow. Trees. Chipmunk robots on ice..."
Angel: "Chipmunk robots... - on ice..."

- Provider
Angel: "What have I got to offer her?"
Lorne: "Do I even have to answer that? You just have to act, Angel. You
gotta let her know what's brewing inside. 'cause, man,
it's real and - and you don't wanna miss that shot!"

- Waiting in the Wings
Cordy: "I want you to undress me."
Angel: "(shocked) You what?"
Cordy: "It's just another costume. I want you to see who I really am.
You're the only one who can."
Angel: "I... This isn't us. Cordelia (licks his lips) we're acting this out. Someone is..."
Cordy: "Whoa! Did - did I actually just ask you to undress me?"
Angel: "Is that what you want?"
Cordy: "What if he finds us?"
Angel: "I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid of anything."
Cordy: "(whispering) I'm only alive when you're inside me."

- Waiting in the Wings
Cordy: "Hi. It's me."
Angel: "Hi! Cor. How are you?"
Cordy: "I'm good. You?"
Angel: "I'm pretty good."
Cordy: "Uhm, Angel, I sort of need to talk to you, in person."
Angel: "Is it something - bad?"
Cordy: "No! No, it's something good. I think. Well, it sort of depends on how you feel."
Angel: "About what?"
Cordy: "Well, about me."

- Tomorrow
"Were we in love?"

"I need Cordy."

Thanks for the new thread. Love the title.

That scene will always be one of my favorites. Him pretending like it didn't hurt and then seeing it actually did.

Yep. He was definitely trying to show off for her. He wanted her to think he was a tough guy.

I love when Angel tries to impress Cordy and then fumbles at it and Dorky-Angel comes out.

That scenes is one of my favorites of Cangel. I loved it. I love how Angel could take hits from all types of bad guys and doesn't flinch but when Cordelia hits him he actually checks to se if he broke anything.

Here's a major Dorky-Angel alert:


https://sydneybristowe.tumblr.com/po.../fredless-3x05

Angel clearly loved Cordy's touch.
I wonder if he'd intentionally get himself injured or more injured just to give her the excuse to touch him.

BTW, remember a bit ago when we were discussing how BAers reach for arguments to support that the ship still exists in AtS and I mentioned a post I wasn't able to resist reblogging to rebut on Tumblr?
At the time I'd tried to find it and thought it was lost as I kept hitting a dead end scrolling through my blog but while searching for that 'Fredless' GIf Set, I found the sucker:

I'm weak for fic where he does that.

With the curse, I can sadly see him being touch starved enough to do that. Like, even if he's not quite aware that he's doing it.

Welp, S5 did prey on SBers & BAers for ratings.

Quote:
The only reason he wasn’t shown grieving Cordy was because Joss wanted nothing to do with her after Charisma got pregnant but in any case, that doesn’t mean it he didn’t. Angel has never been the type to openly express emotion.

It IS there, it’s subtle but it’s there. Even while still in the coma he was, again by his own admission, lost without her and that more lively persona she’d brought out in him was buried with her.
IA.

I feel like Angel's OOC behavior in S5 is also due to how much he misses Cordy and how lost he is without her. He can't have Cordy so he throws himself into his old fantasies, and tries to cling back onto Buffy & their past romance (but that doesn't make him happy anymore, and he's still hollow inside).

And like we spoke about in here before, and as was stated in the comics, Angel & the rest not speaking about her was because it was simply too painful. (I refuse to believe anything else. I mean, even shipping aside, the Fang Gang were her family. They loved loved her and wouldn't just up and forget that like everything was fine and dandy.)

Quote:
“I lost Cordy because someTHING violated her, crawled up inside and used her up. No way in hell I’m gonna let that happen again”
DB's delivery of this line guts me. You can feel how much Cordy's death has wounded him, wounded all of them, and they're still ripped open and bleeding and there is this awful pain hanging over them, that hasn't even begun to heal.

I don't even think Angel would've taken the job at W&H if he wasn't so messed up over Cordy & Connor and so desperate to save them. Maybe he even thought W&H could do more for Cordy with all their resources and magics and that's how he could get her back.

Quote:
Lastly, In an issue of Angel & Faith he admits trying to resurrect Cordy sometime in between ‘You’re Welcome’ and ‘Why We Fight’ but Wolfram & Hart’s resources were too unreliable and volitle.
I forgot about that. Ouch. Do you have that panel available?

How desperate he must've been to have her back...when he knows, he knows how dangerous resurrection is.

True, poor baby.

WITW suggests that Cordelia was sexually frustrated. She implies that prior to Groo's arrival the most she'd been touched since Wilson was Dennis bathing her with a loofah which is totally understandable and whether or not she experimented with self-pleasuring is up in the air but there is no exploration of it on Angel's part despite it being a lot more obvious.

If the curse having been broken by an illusion in 'Awakening' is any indication then it might not be not entirely safe for him to even self-pleasure. How horrible for him.

There is a Tumblr post that considers the idea of an asexual Cordelia and how it would make her a safe partner for Angel and honestly, I'm a bit surprised that Wilson didn't convert her as such. Emphasis on "a bit", of course, we know Cordelia Chase always gets back up after being knocked down until Jasmine. She even addressed this in a cut segment of the 'Got my guy back on track' line in YW:

"Don't make it hard. Angel. I'm just on a different road, and this is my off-ramp. You don't know what kind of hell I've been through; I couldn't tough that one out anymore. The Powers That Be owed me one. And I didn't waste it. Got my boy back on track."
(This comes from the 'You're Welcome' script book, it was once shared by a former poster in this thread and yeah, it had her initially using the term 'boy' instead of 'guy')

Exactly, I've said this before, but I am 100% convinced that the BA kiss in 'Chosen' was another Darla thing, a numb Angel desperately trying to feel something, anything.

He was completely reliving Cordy's possession and death during the Fred/Illyria thing.
Perhaps I am reaching a little too far with this one but in 'Shells' when he berates Illyria for taking "something precious from us" I got the feeling that he was talking about Cordy, not Fred as much affection as he had for Fred.

He definitely took the job for Cordy and Connor, that was his bargain to the senior partners and in his messed up state of mind, he probably was desperate enough to try W&H's resources on Cordy's coma.

That expression he has while looking down at the love of his life wrapped in explosives....

I don't but I do have the exact dialogue.

FAITH: Angel, when Cordelia died, you had everyone at Jacoby, Meyers and Satan working for you. In a world that still had magic. If it coulda been done, you'da done it then.

ANGEL: It's not that cut and dried. There have always been resurrection spells. Wolfram and Hart had dozens. They just aren't used much, because they're hard...dangerous...and they only work on the body. The soul's a whole different thing. You end up with a zombie...or worse.


I hadn't seen it for myself at the time I'd written that Tumblr post so it's not as specific as I'd imagined.

Quote:

The dialogue suggests that the danger involved and apparent low probability of a non-zombie result is exactly the reason he didn't go through with it.
Hopefully, he also considered that she was at peace and free from ever having to suffer again.

IA about the Bangel kiss in Chosen being about Angel trying to feel something because he was so numb. I would also say that was the Nina thing to. All of season 5 is Angel just being numb to everything except for YW. I don't think your reaching at all and IA that the Illyria thing hit Angel hard because of what happened to Cordelia. I think in away he was reliving it all over again and it opened all those old wounds again. Angel definitely was hoping W&H would be able to bring Cordy back. They helped him with Connor so I think he thought they would be able to help him with her to. It's sad to me that Angel has to live with the knowlage that of all the people he saved Cordy was one of the people he couldn't. My Cangel heart breaks for him.

But I thought the curse was more about sharing sex with someone he loved than just self himself? I don't think self-pleasuring would ever be a soul losing event. That's how he slept with Darla & Nina. No perfect happiness.

Plus Angel lost his soul after sex, when he was holding Buffy in his arms as they slept. So IDEK if it was the sex itself, more so just how close he felt to her and the peace he'd found with her.

I tend to favor the theory that once he knows about the curse, he can never achieve perfect happiness again, really, b/c in the back of his mind he always knows Angelus is a risk therefore dampening the happiness.

The curse is stupid anyway. Why would Jenny's people create a loop hole that'd allow Angelus to get free and kill again? Plus, they were only ever punishing Angel/Liam, not Angelus.

I don't think people can convert to asexual? I'm not an expert, but I think asexuals, generally, don't experience sexual attraction to anyone, and we know Cordy does ("Salty goodness" her staring at Xander in the speedo, etc). I think an aversion to sex due to trauma/a bad experience is entirely different.

I'd like to see that post, though, the idea of an asexual Cordy is interesting.

Quote:

IA. And while I think a part of him will always love Buffy, I don't think it was the same all consuming love anymore.

Quote:

That hurts so much. And it's so true. We as the viewers never even found out 100% everything Jasmine and her followers did to her. And what we saw/do know was already horrific.

I don't think you're reading into it, because like you said, Fred was causing them to re-live what happened to Cordy all over again. Both Cordy & Fred were precious and were taken from their AI fam, so I think he was essentially saying it about both.

That expression he has while looking down at the love of his life wrapped in explosives....
I've almost repressed that scene because it just hurts too much to think of. I could've gone my whole life without ever having to see that.

I hadn't seen it for myself at the time I'd written that Tumblr post so it's not as specific as I'd imagined.
I think what's important is that he doesn't correct Faith or deny it when she says 'If it coulda been done, you'da done it then'

The dialogue suggests that the danger involved and apparent low probability of a non-zombie result is exactly the reason he didn't go through with it.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. He has experience knowing what it's like to be brought back from the dead, when Darla was brought back, and all the ways it can go wrong etc. I don't doubt he wanted to do it, but knew it was too dangerous/was not the best thing for her.



An "open wound" . That's exactly what it was and he was bleeding all S5.

IA about the Bangel kiss in Chosen being about Angel trying to feel something because he was so numb. I would also say that was the Nina thing to. All of season 5 is Angel just being numb to everything except for YW. I don't think your reaching at all and IA that the Illyria thing hit Angel hard because of what happened to Cordelia. I think in away he was reliving it all over again and it opened all those old wounds again. Angel definitely was hoping W&H would be able to bring Cordy back. They helped him with Connor so I think he thought they would be able to help him with her to. It's sad to me that Angel has to live with the knowlage that of all the people he saved Cordy was one of the people he couldn't. My Cangel heart breaks for him.
All of this.

He didn't even self-pleasure in 'Awakening', the curse was broke then based on an illusion of shared sex with someone he loved so if he had a powerful enough fantasy while self-pleasuring...that was my point.
Considering the illusion was induced, however, perhaps there is a significant difference.

Personally, because Buffy proved that it was about the person not achieving orgasm contrary to Cordy's own (possibly denial induced) misconception, it stands to reason sex needn't be involved.

I love fanfics, that explore this.
One of the published novels actually does it as well and I found it brilliant.

Exactly the reason I believe Angel could never bring himself to pursue a romantic relationship with Cordy and that Connor didn't break the curse because Angel knew to keep his happiness in check.

True, the curse is a Catch 22 because Angel's soul is what gave him the capacity to love and achieve that kind of happiness.
On the other hand, that also makes the curse a double edge sword. Having that capacity only to be forced to deny himself the reward is a torture in itself.

I think an aversion to sex due to trauma/a bad experience is entirely different.
Well when you put it that way, now I feel like an idiot.

I'd never considered that.
Although she establishes that she was aware of the entire possession, we have no idea just what effect it had on her but just knowing that she was a prisoner in her own body, able to see and feel what it was doing to her family but not be able to control it, to stop it leaves little to the imagination.

I can dig that.

Same. It also helps that I've only watched it the one time.

Exactly, and if Buffy shared the details of her resurrection, most notably her severe disorientation and depression in their off-screen reunion, that would have been a turn off for him as well. No way in hell he'd put his Cordy through that.

I've got rest of that bit:


This isn't canon but still
Part of me is glad that it isn't because I prefer ATS where he tells her to her face that he loves her, in the present tense and because in this comic series he's apparently looking to appeal to the Kalderashs to release him from the curse so he can be with Nina.
