Best Quote:

Elektra's Stardust-
        "Cordelia felt her body stiffen at his touch.  It was the first time that     he had touched her.  She'd known him for a year and they'd never so much as     brushed shoulders.  She wanted to revel in his touch but she was afraid.      This is all a trick, she thought.  They suck you in so they can drag you      down.  Even Xander was guilty of that.
        "Please Doyle, please just go."
        Her voice held a plea for understanding.  She prayed that he would leave      this be; that he would let her climb into her apartment andshut the door.  It      was easier to be numb than to feel.  Cordelia felt atear slip down one cheek.      Much to her dismay, she felt Doyle's fingertip trace the path the tear ha      taken until he caught it as it trembled at her jaw line. She looked up at him      through wet, spiky lashes.
        He examined the tear that clung to his fingertip.  He had caused this.      There was no one else to blame. The dark, clutching feeling of shame welled      up from the pit of his stomach.  He stared at the tear for a moment longer      before shifting his gaze to meet hers.  He looked into her eyes and was lost.
       "Cordelia."
        She braced herself, waiting for the laughter.  She had cried.   He had      called her a silly name and she had cried. There was no excuse for such      behavior, she thought. Cordelia Chase cry?  Just imagine what mom would say,      she thought"

        The Emperor's New Clothes by Mediancat-
    "Gee, Cordy, isn't there a Tin Woodsman you should be terrorizing somewhere?"
    "Maybe you should be the one visiting the Wizard, Xander -- you need brains,   courage, AND a heart."

        Stardust by Elektra-
        "When she was little, her mother had entered her in beauty pageants. The     ones where little girls got dressed up in evening gowns and make-up and      looked at least thirty-five. She'd always done well in those pageants until      it came to the talent competition.
        Her mother insisted that she sing Stardust by Cab Calloway. She adamantly  insisted that the family had class. For some reason, she thought if Cordelia  sang that particular song,   everyone else would believe they did too. What her mother didn't seem  to understand was that Cordelia couldn't sing. She tried her hardest. She'd  put on an appropriately sad smile and do a sophisticated little dance but it  didn't matter. She still couldn't sing. The judges had marked her last and   her mother had been furious. She had told Cordelia that she was a face and nothing more. Cordelia remembered crying, only to have her mother cut that off quickly. "Keep crying like that and you'll ruin the only asset you've  got. Believe me, you're going to need it. The good Lord knows that you'll  never get by on smarts," she'd said. That was the last time Cordelia had cried, until tonight. Part of her knew that Doyle didn't mean anything by it, but it hurt nonetheless."

        Chase Scene-
        "Um -- how DID you beat him, Cordelia?" Oz asked from the driver's seat. She laughed. "Please! In a MALL? I had the home-field advantage!"

        Simple Simon-
        Well, doesn't this just beat all? The Queen of the Flakes datin' the King  of the Dorks." Simon grinned.


Un Cordy Moment

Elektra's Moonlit Flirtation
        "Having said that, Cordelia promptly hung up the phone and pulled her     blinds.  She scampered back to her bed, flung the covers over her head and      let out an excited squeal.  I haven't felt like this since Xander, she      thought.  She settled back into bed in hopes of getting a few more hours of   beauty rest before beginning her day."

        Beltaine:
        "Let us go, Angel," Cordelia said in a hypnotizing voice. A smear of  Tamara's cool blood bathed her chin and he wiped it away with the cuff of his  velvet shirt. His own mouth watered and his groin tightened as Cordelia ran  her tongue over her lips to catch any stray drops. Her still-sharp teeth  glistened with saliva and held a dangerous promise.
        "I can change you forever," he offered. He thirsted for her like a man  doing hard labor under a sultry sun and wondered why he just didn't grab her  and take her right there in front of the Slayer.
        "No, you can't," she said forcefully.
        "Cordelia!" Buffy's voice tugged at her soul and she reluctantly backed  away from Angelus's compelling gaze. She didn't want to go any further than  she already had. Xander groaned from behind Buffy, waking up from his mild  concussion and giving   Cordelia something else to focus on besides the allure of Angel's dark,  glittering eyes and the desire he was projecting at her.

        The Great Secret-
        The entire short


Sappy Moment

Elektra's Stardust I
        "Doyle leaned forward and pressed his lips against hers.  His tongue     paused for a moment as it licked at her lip gloss before venturing into the      depths of her mouth. She tasted of cinnamon.  As his tongue crossed the      barrier of her lips, he felt her tongue brush against his for a fleeting      moment and then it was gone.  He went slowly, exploring every inch of her
    mouth.  He noticed the sharp intake of her breath as he ran his tongue over      the smooth surface of her teeth.  She's been hanging      out with Angel too long, he thought.  He pulled back and began to worry the      surface of her lips with his teeth.  After each tiny nip, he lavished her lip      with a long slow stroke of his tongue.
        Cordelia moaned.
        Her tongue snaked out of her mouth in desperate search of his.  She      longed to draw it back to the warm haven of her mouth where it belonged.  As      he felt her tongue brush against his, Doyle pulled away.  If he didn't stop      now, he wouldn't. He didn't want a quickie on the landing in front of her      apartment.  Cordelia deserved more.  He deserved more.
        He looked at Cordelia.  Her eyes were still pressed closed as she      recovered from the kiss.  Her chest heaved as she panted with the exertion of      their passion.  He breathed deeply, attempting to slow his own breathing.  He      pulled her close and whispered in her ear, "I'm sorry".

        Stardust by Elektra- II
        "Cordelia felt her body stiffen at his touch. It was the first time that  he had touched her. She'd known him for a year and they'd never so much as  brushed shoulders. She wanted to revel in his touch but she was afraid. This  s all a trick, she thought. They suck you in so they can drag you down. Even  Xander was guilty of   that."
 
Elektra's Stardust- III
        "Cordelia felt tears well up in her eyes.
        "Why can't anyone love me the way Angel loves Buffy? What's wrong with  me? I'm cute; I have a great personality. I don't run around killing things  that go bump in the night. I'm popular girl. Why does everyone keep forgetting that."
        Cordelia looked over her shoulder as she reached the top of the stairwell. No one had bothered to follow her. She supposed that should make  her happy, but it didn't. She wasn't even worth the trouble. Cordelia held in  a sob as she opened the door and walked to the entrance of her apartment.
        "Hey Toots."
        Cordelia sucked in a breath. She hadn't noticed Doyle standing by Bertha.   She kept her face slightly averted from him. In her experience, tears were a   sign of weakness. A sign of vulnerability. She'd learned that from an early  age.
        When she was little, her mother had entered her in beauty pageants. The  ones where little girls got dressed up in evening gowns and make-up and  looked at least thirty-five. She'd always done well in those pageants until  it came to the talent competition.
        Her mother insisted that she sing Stardust by Cab Calloway. She adamantly  insisted that the family had class. For some reason, she thought if Cordelia  sang that particular song, everyone else would believe they did too. What her  mother didn't seem to understand was that Cordelia couldn't sing. She tried  her hardest. She'd put on an appropriately sad smile and do a sophisticated  little dance but it didn't     matter. She still couldn't sing. The judges had marked her last and her      mother had been furious. She had told Cordelia that she was a face and      nothing more. Cordelia remembered crying, only to have her mother cut  that      off quickly. "Keep crying like that and you'll ruin the only asset you've      got. Believe me, you're going to need it. The good Lord knows that you'll      never get by on smarts," she'd said. That was the last time Cordelia had
    cried, until tonight. Part of her knew tha t Doyle didn't mean anything by it,      but it hurt nonetheless.
        "Hi," she said, her voice barely above a whisper."


Heartbreaking Moment

I never loved you anyway-
But worse of all, Xander misled me.  He made me think he was different, made me think he could see inside of me.  He claimed he saw "specialness" within me.  I thought he could see who I really was, beyond the ever-popular cheerleader, beyond the ever-beautiful May Queen, behind the brain I thought I had to disguise …to me, the real Cordelia, the girl who got things instead of love.  The girl whose parents ignored her and whose friends didn't really care.  The girl just waiting for one person - just one person - to love her unconditionally.  And he made me believe he was that one.  And then he betrayed me.
**Before you go I must remember
To have a quiet word with that girl
Does she know you're not a spender
Well I just have to say**
But hey, I should thank Willow for stealing him…No, that's not right.  She couldn't have stolen him from me if I didn't want to lose him in the first place.  I should thank her for showing me what a loser he really is.  She can have him - do whatever she wants with him -- because I don't want him anymore.  I hope she knows that he's not this great romantic guy - just a loser.  I'm glad I didn't let myself care, that I didn't give him the power to hurt me.  He was just a temporary diversion, nothing special.  Yeah, it's good that we broke up.  I never loved him anyway.  And I'm glad he's gone.
 
Than Hear You Sing-
        Angel confronts Cordelia about why she can't sing the most important  lyric in one certain song and she admits she still loves  Xander.
