Cordys große Stärke, aber auch Schwäche ist ihre Scharfzüngigkeit. Zuerst reden, dann denken. Doch im Grunde sind ihre Worte selten wirklich verletzend gemeint. Wenn man einen witzigen Spruch für die eigene Sig sucht oder ein bißchen "Farbe" für Insider-Gespräche, wird man bei Cordy sicher fündig.
City of
" So are you still - grrr?"
"It was nice seeing you, but I've got to get mingly. I really should be talking to people that *are* somebody."
"I am somebody. I matter. People will be drawn to my positive energy and help me to achieve my goals. I am right where I am supposed to be (she falls forward to the bed face down) and not dying for something to eat!"
"Hey, I'm from Sunnydale. We had our own Hellmouth!"
"You don't know who he is, do you? Oh, boy! You are about to get your ass kicked!"
"If that was my gift, I'd return it."
"Yeah, like High-school. It was easy to date there. We all had so much in common. Being monster food every other week for instance."
"Well, a couple of hundred years ago all you had to worry about was a hang over. Today, because of your curse thingy, - you can't sleep with anyone - or else you might feel a moment of true happiness, lose your soul, become evil again, and - kill everyone."
"The last thing I want is to show up at the office and find that I'm working for a homicidal monster."
Lonely Hearts
"Hi. Being harassed by someone or something? Just dial us up, day or night. (to the guy) You look troubled. Are you troubled - or is that just your lazy eye? - Anyway, call us, we are very discreet."
"I'm an actress, a student of the human animal. I don't need to talk to people to know their story."
In the Dark
"This is one of those times when I should just shy away from the topic, isn't it?"
"Doyle would celebrate the opening of a mailbox with a drink at the pub."
"This is not a needle in a haystack, this is a needle in Kansas."
I Fall to pieces
"Well, as vampires go, you're pretty cuddly. Maybe you might want to think about mixing up the black on black look."
"You are a lot smarter than you look (Doyle looks at her) - Of course you look like a retard."
"What is stalking now a days - the third most popular sport among men?"
Room w/a View
"Get this. I tried to call Doyle. I have sunk that low. And there was no answer. So, here I am. Not that you're the last resort. It's just that I have nowhere else left to go."
"I - actually smell! Smell me. I never smell. I didn't know I could."
"You know what? I get it. You're a ghost. You're dead. Big accomplishment! Move on! - You see a light anywhere? Go towards it, okay?"
"I'm not a sniveling whiny little Cry-Buffy. I'm the nastiest girl in Sunnydale history. - I take crap from no one."
"Back off! Polygrip. - You think *you're* bad? Being all mean and haunty? Picking on poor pathetic Cordy? Well, get ready to haul your wrinkly translucent ass out of this place, because lady, the bitch is back."
Sense and Sensitivity
"OK, am I wrong in thinking that a ‚Please' and ‚Thank you' is generally considered good form when requesting a dismemberment?"
"You want to know what I think? I think he *uses* his tortured creature of the night status as a license to be rude and insensitive! Sure, he is polite to the helpless and the downtrodden, but he ignores the people that are the closest to him. The people that matter the most, you know? Can you say clueless?"
The Bachelor Party
"And the whole night I was bored silly. All I could think about was: if this wimp ever saw a monster he'd probably throw a shoe at it and run like a weasel. Turns out the shoe part was giving him to much credit."
"I swore when I went that road with Xander Harris, I'd rather be dead then date a fixer-upper again. Still, maybe you're right. Maybe Doyle does have - hidden depths. I mean, really, really hidden, - but depths."
I Will Remember You
"Let me explain the lore here, okay? They suffer, they fight. That's business as usual. They get groiny with each other, the world as we know it falls apart."
"Oh, please! They've got the forbidden love of all time. They have been apart for months. Now he's suddenly human? I'm sure they are down there just having tea and crackers."
Heroes
"And who needs a license when we have no clients?"
"What ever you saw just now - did they look like they could afford to pay?"
"I've rejected you way before now! So, you're half demon. Big Whoop! I can't believe you'd think I'd care about that. I mean, I work for a vampire! Hello?"
"Would you ask me out to dinner already?"
Parting Gifts
"Well, I got news for you, broody boy. We're all we've got now. You may not like sharing your grief with others, but that's the normal, healthy way people deal with loss. I'm not going anywhere, so get used to it. I'm staying right here! (the alarm on her watch goes off) Oops! Got to go. Commercial audition. If it wasn't a national I'd blow it off."
"I thought our kiss meant something, and instead he - he used that moment to pass it on to me! Why couldn't it have been mono or herpes!"
"If kissing is the only way to get rid of it I will smooch every damn frog in this kingdom!"
"I hope you like your coffee black, because the only lightener the boss has in his refrigerator is O positive."
"He's a good cook for someone on a liquid diet."
The Somnambulist
"You look half-dead. Which for someone, who's completely dead, would be - kind of neat?"
"Vampires can't sleepwalk. He'd take one step out of the front door and his p.j.s would burst into flame!"
"My glamorous LA life, I get to make the coffee and chain the boss to the bed."
"If your wondering why this vein on my temple is doing the cha-cha, it's because I just had one of those bone-crunching, mind-splitting vision headaches. New job."
"I learned something, too. I learned, uhm, - men are evil? Oh, wait, - I knew that. I learned that LA is full of self-serving phonies. No, - had that one down, too. Uh... sex is bad?"
She
"I'm so glad you came. You know how parties are. You're always worried that no one is going to suck the energy out of the room like a giant black hole of boring despair. But there you where - in the clinch!"
Warzone
"I like David. It's such a - strong, masculine name. (Nabbit grins at her) It just feels - good in your mouth."
Sanctuary
"Well, if it's any consolation it really does look like you were - tortured by a much larger woman."
"People always get a little funny right after they've been sadistically tortured."
To Shanshu in LA
"I ever meet these Powers That Be - I'm gonna punch'm in the nose! (Wesley tries to suppress a smile) - Do you think they have a nose?"
"Angel faces death all the time - just like a normal guy faces waffles and French-fries. It's something he faces every day like - lunch."
"Typical. I hook up with the only person in history who ever came to LA to get older."
