Why this must be read:

*puts hand up* Okay, I'll admit it. Something Blue is my all-time favourite Buffy episode. It's got witty dialogue, a great plot and very little Riley for a season four episode. Er. Right. On with the rec. Well, Answering Machine Blues is set during Something Blue. It's a short series of messages left on Cordelia's answering machine as the effects of Willow's spell begin to make themselves known.

It's funny. And short. Go read it - your boss will never know.

And the last message is the best.



*ring* *ring* *ring*

Hello, you've reached Cordelia Chase. I can't come to the phone right now, since I'm too busy achieving my goal of world superstardom. Leave your message after the tone.

*beep*

Late night, Cordy? I hope Angel gave you a raise. Which is actually kinda why I'm calling again. If you see Angel, could you ask him if he'd come? The groom's side is pretty empty, so we need Angel to fill it out a little. Spike is really against making him one of the ushers, so do you think Doyle would go for it? He seemed like a pretty nice guy. Call me soon!
