No, no, no -
"No!"
Cordelia wakes up with a start, sitting upright on her bed with her hands clutching her blanket like a lifeline. For several moments she looks around her in alarm, wondering where the hell she is and where the others are, wondering if this is another one of those times she unfortunately opened her eyes only to be sliced and diced again and--
Then she rests her head on her hands, and breathes. It's over now. It's over and done with and they're all safe but the images are still burned in her brain, like a vision that's been put on eternal loop.
Slowly - mindful of the pains that plague her - Cordelia gets out of bed. She looks down at herself, sees the numerous bandages that are wrapped around her body, and sighs.
And here she thought she'd be safe in Taxon. Pfft.
She gets up, and walks over to the mirror. Cordelia looks at her reflection, and bites her lip.
God.
"Mummy girl much?" she whispers.

I ain't fishing for sympathy, I ain't looking for... I just want you to know I got reasons for behaving the way I do. Toward vampires. Toward everyone.

Can I swing by and visit you, when you feel better, or will that hot boyfriend of yours rip my head off?
[Voice/ Locked]
[ pause. ] Sure! Angel's a bit tense these days, though, but don't let that bother you. I'll tell him to not rip your head off if you do come and visit.

He reminds you of somebody? Well who is it?
[Voice/ Locked]
A Hunter I work for. I keep telling him he needs a damned vacation.
[Voice/ Locked]
...you work for a Hunter?

So I ain't the hero type, alright? I get information he wants, or I do some other small job. I owe him so I can't exactly say no.

Hey, maybe if that same rule applied in our world as well, then there'd be less evil demons to kill.
