THE CHALLENGE by SCORCH:

1) Buffy & Angel find a way around the curse by separating him from Angelus.
2) Angelus must agree to ‘fight the good fight’ and is monitored by the PTB.
3) Scooby Gang freaks out with Angelus running around.
4) Angelus doesn’t care about the ‘good fight’, but ends up saving Cordy one night. She’s scared witless of the vamp.
5) Angelus goes after Cordy in a big way…cards & flowers no less…in addition to doing anything he can to impress her.
6) Hot, steamy C/Aus results.
7) B/A starts to deteriorate despite sex no longer being an issue d/t mistrust and the slayer/vampire dynamic.
8) The following scenes have to be included:
a.) Buffy and Cordelia meeting in the mansion kitchen. Buffy is fully dressed, but Cordy is only in Angelus’ robe.
b.) Angel runs into the bedroom after hearing Cordelia screaming.
c.) Angel & Angelus walking in the library together, Buffy running up to Angelus thinking he’s Angel. He pushes her away in disgust. Cordy can tell them apart, but Buffy can’t.
9) The rest is up to you.

  1. This fic is *the* CA fic for me. It has everything I could ever ask for. Cordelia/Angel *and* Cordelia/Angelus *and* there’s a happy ending.

    I have read this more times than I can count. There are scenes in here that I literally count amongst some of the most romantic moments of all time, and that’s counting TV, movies, books, etc, everything.

    For example, the “You own my heart if you will have it.” scene just gets me every.single.time I read it. Ugh, so good.

    Thank you so much for lending your incredible talent to this fandom and to the C/A pairing.
