Goddess & Vampire
(opens in new tab)
Who: Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) and Angel (David Boreanaz)
Where: Angel
Angel, like most vampires, had a propensity for brooding, and Cordelia “I think it, I say it, that’s my way” Chase was his perfect foil, puncturing the worst of his pomposity and keeping him grounded when he lost perspective of the big picture. Cordy was very much the heart of Angel Investigations, and her need to help the helpless, and ability to remind him of his humanity formed the core of their relationship. It is also one of the funniest pairings on our list with both giving their fair share of Whedon-quips.
Any other potential suitors? Lots. Cordy’s great love was Doyle, while Angel’s was some tiny blonde slayer or other, but over the years there were others – especially for Angel who was hundreds of years old by this point.
Star-crossed lovers or happy ever after? Possessed by Jasmine, Cordelia had a relationship with Angel’s son Connor, which is always going to be a difficult thing to get past. Returning briefly for Angel’s hundredth episode Cordy/Angel shippers finally got them to have their kiss and declare their love for each other – but the moment was fleeting as her meeting with Angel was actually a favour of the Powers That Be and her physical body had died, leaving Angel to move onto a werewolf and, yannow, the apocalypse.
Think of the children! Frankly having already seen Connor we’d really rather not.
