(no subject)



Standing in the wake of a newly (not to mention barely) won run-of-the-mill slayage battle, Cordelia crosses her arms in front of her chest. She’s impressively composed for someone who just impaled an unholy creature of the night with a pink stiletto heel.

“Aren’t you supposed to kiss me or something?”

Xander wipes a little bit of fluorescent green demon slime from his forehead. “Does this look like happily ever after to you?”

She contemplates it for a second, then wrinkles her nose. “Good point.”

Which, in and of itself, is reason enough for a fiery embrace or two – it’s at least twelve percent driven by the motivation to gross her out. The other eighty-eight might just be genuine affection. Xander decides not to dwell on that. He’s had enough scary for one night.

ME AND YOU FTW!! Mostly you. Obviously. But aww, this is terribly cute.

Oh, Xander and Cordy! I loved them so much back in the day, and they still hold a corner of my heart. This ficlet is such a nice moment for each of them and their fun dynamic together - thanks for sharing!

Hee! This is cute. I miss Buffy back when it was more with the cute and less with the Big Serious World-Ending Drama. Not that I didn't like that, just, I miss this, too. (And oh, how I love my sassy Cordelia.)

Xander and Cordy! They were my favourite 'ship of the early days, all hilarious and wrong (yet oh-so-right). This was cute and amusing - one of my favourite combinations.

Wow, it seems weird to be reminiscing about Buffy as if it was so long ago because it seems like something that would just always be there and always be active but... nothing is like that. It was a long time ago, in comparison to newer fandoms and just things in general. Hmm, excuse the rant, but I never realised that Buffy has become a thing of nostalgia, like Seinfeld and The X-Files. Carry on.
