til ashes, ashes, we fade away

fixingontheday asked: Angel, Wesley/Lilah and/or Zuko/Katara, Cordelia

Angel

Favorite character: Cordelia and Angel, tbh.
Least Favorite character: Eve. Why is an Eve. But tbh I could have dealt with her if Morena was cast as her instead of Sarah Thompson who is a charisma sucking void.
5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): Angel/Cordelia, Wesley/Lilah, Angel/Darla, Angel/Connor, and Wesley/Faith. The latter two are obviously not romantic on the show but I love their specific relationships with each other so much.
Character I find most attractive: Cordelia, tbh.
Character I would marry: Yeah, no.
Character I would be best friends with: lol
a random thought: Why wasn’t season 5 about the memory wipe. We should have gotten that and it would have focused on the characters we’ve known for years instead of fucking Spike. I’m still bitter at all the focus he got in the first half the season. Also I’m sick and tired of people using promo pics of the season 5 cast to represent AtS because no. I see what you’re doing and you’re transparent as fuck. Also Lilah Morgan should have been the liaison in season 5. WHY DO YOU NOT HAVE LILAH MORGAN WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO BE SET IN WOLFRAM & HART.
An unpopular opinion: Okay seriously, what would even be an unpopular opinion.
my canon OTP: Angel/Cordelia, obviously.
Non-canon OTP: Gunn/Anne. SHOULD HAVE BEEN A THING.
most badass character: CHARLES GUNN. ALSO BITTER ABOUT THE WRITERS DROPPING HIS NARRATIVE.
pairing I am not a fan of: Lindsey/Eve.
character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): WINIFRED BURKLE AND CHARLES GUNN. Like with Fred, we did get to see who she was and that was this woman with a ruthless survivor instinct and it was great but then the love triangle happened which was all about Wesley’s issues that screwed her narrative over and then season 5 which turned her into another one of Joss Whedon’s Kitty Pryde copies. So. And then Gunn also could have had the best narrative but lol those writers. Season 5 could have been so amazing for him and it did start out great and made so much sense. But then. =/
favorite friendship: Wesley/Cordelia/Gunn and also Angel/Cordelia/Wesley/Gunn.
character I want to adopt or be adopted by: Yeah, no.

Wesley/Lilah

when of if I started shipping it: The season 3 finale.
my thoughts: Perfectly constructed doomed ship that will probably in my top 3 ships forever.
What makes me happy about them: lol um. If I had to choose one thing, that scene in ‘Ground State’ exists.
What makes me sad about them: Also everything. AND THAT SHE WASN’T IN SEASON 5.
things done in fanfic that annoys me: IDK I haven’t read much fic of them. The only fic I’ve read was by my friends. And then one AU season 1 fic that was hilarious.
things I look for in fanfic: See above. My thing with AtS is that I am overall satisfied with what canon gave me and really only look for character study and missing scene fic. Like, I want all the missing scene fic. The only AU fic I really want is like, Lilah Morgan in season 5 fic or Fred ended up killing Siedel in ‘Supersymmetry’. I could also go for no Spike in season 5.
My kinks: IDK.
Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other:
My happily ever after for them: lol no. The thing that I love about them is that they were doomed from the start because they were on opposite sides of the same war but yet they came out of it changed and just. Elyssa’s meta is gr9 everyone should read it.
who is the big spoon/little spoon: I don’t think they do that.

Cordelia

How I feel about this character: FAVORITE LADY FOREVER. AND EVER. HATERS HATE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, HATERS ARE JUST BITTER, HATERS HAVE A TAYLOR SWIFT MINDSET, ETC. But no, really. Her arc was absolutely stunning and I just love how much the show was also about her because it was about Angel and Cordelia’s role in this mission and their desire to do good and to be better people. I love that she refused to give up fighting and the sacrifices she made to keep on fighting. I just don’t understand how there are haters. I don’t understand how people can even look at her and say, well, her arc is fine but I just don’t like her personality. WHAT FUCKING SHOW WERE YOU EVEN WATCHING THEN?!?!
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Angel.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Wesley and Gunn. Also I wish BtVS didn’t drop her dynamic with Buffy in season 3 because stunning narrative foils. The same goes with Lilah Morgan.
~~My unpopular opinion about this character~~:
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: I wish she got to do something during the Jasmine arc. I wish the writers made it crystal clear that she was possessed by Jasmine from the end of ‘Spin the Bottle’ and on. I wish for season 5 she had an actual arc instead of an episode if anything. I wish we got to see her talk to Wesley about him kidnapping Connor.
my het ship: Angel
my fem/slash ship: I wish she and Fred were friends and again, I wish she interacted with Buffy and Lilah more.
my OTP: Angel/Cordelia.
my OT3: Cordelia/Wesley/Gunn forever, tbh.
my cross over ship:
my kink:
a head cannon fact:
my gender bend:
