cordelia is all of mark's worst traits amplified. she's mean, she's petty, she's antagonistic. she loves the idea of doing things because they make people angry.
and if anything is to go by, it just means she needs a good influence in her life. too bad she probably won't accept it.
i'm not gonna bite your head off. her shoulders relax, just a fraction. she hardly has time to notice, though, before cordelia speaks again and the tension coiled behind cyn's neck ratchets right back up. she's able to stop herself before a no, i don't that would sound entirely too petulant comes out. instead, she exhales an exasperated " jesus. "
she doesn't know why it catches her so off-guard, the nonchalance, but it does. it feels, ironically, so adolescent. she was expecting to be shamed and feel like she deserved it– to be admonished. because she can imagine it, loosely. what it would be like to learn that an estranged father had a girlfriend young enough to be her junior. cyn would be angry, too. she'd have questions. but this feels different– suddenly, the curiosity doesn't feel genuine.
her eyes flash to cordelia's at the mention of daddy issues. not her kindest impulse, but she's a little less concerned with that now. " yeah, well. you haven't had much time to get to know him yet. " it isn't meant to be a dig, really– perhaps why she uses the word 'yet.' but the question does make her feel protective of mark. guilt has so often crept up on cyn when she thinks too long about the impression of mark people might form, seeing them together. it frustrates her, that anyone– much less his own daughter– could spend a second thinking he's some dirty old man when he has punished himself enough for several lifetimes over it. " look, " she says flatly, " if you're interested in having an actual conversation about it, that's fine– but i don't need to be psychoanalyzed, thanks. " she's aware that that sentence sounds fairly damning, but cyn is hardly willing to give up information about her father now. that vulnerability might have been a peace offering, if this conversation had taken a different turn. instead, the drawbridge is going up.
i don't need to be psychoanalyzed. and there it is: something cordelia can pry her fingers into, like something precious underneath the floorboards. she blinks once, twice, smooth smile pressing to her mouth. getting cynthia (thank god she remembered it) to be angry is what she wants. get people running on their baser instincts and they'll say and do things that reveal more of themselves. it's not a very clean method, but it works. cynthia says she doesn't need it. cordelia's going to do it anyway.
" 'course i don't know him. didn't even know he existed 'til like, three weeks ago. didn't know you existed 'til yesterday. sorry if 'm a little shaky on how everything works around here. "
it isn't as if she hasn't been looking around this place (an antique shop? how boring. cordelia expected more). it'd be easy to take a few things out of here without anyone noticing. she doesn't think cynthia going to do anything about it. she's more worried about fucking her father (who, mind you, is younger than her)— and not even that, but actually defending it. unbelievable.
" fine. y'wanna have an adult conversation about it? we can. it's just ... why go for someone so much older? that's an actual question. nothin' mean behind it. boys your age not doin' it for ya? i get it. 's just so disappointin' sometimes. "

hm. professional thief cordelia lawrence. heists are her bread and butter, of course, but she isn't too haughty to completely forget about the fun of a smash and grab.
the question doesn't seem like it's particularly meant to intimidate her– but even so, cyn feels the air grow thin. something crawls over her that's flighty and embarrassed in a way that she doesn't like and certainly doesn't understand. people stare at them all the time, have even said things to them on occasion. and yes, this woman may be mark's daughter, but she's still a stranger. so why does it feel like the floor's gone?
somewhere in the back of her head, though, she knows. it's that this could be the bubble bursting. this could be the thing that scares him off. not the ghosts or the judgement or the enormity of cyn's need.
just the math.
cyn feels two feet tall and about fifteen years younger when she speaks. just about anything would be easier than looking cordelia in the eye right now, but cyn figures she owes her that much. " i mean, it's not... about anything. we... " but there's no way to couch it that might magically make it okay in cordelia's eyes. " we fell in love. " and she feels stupid saying it, and that is the worst feeling of all. " trust me, we both know how it looks. "
" 'm not gonna bite y'head off, if that's what y'were worried about. "
cordelia worries about the optics. she knows she looms over cecelia (loud incorrect buzzer) cynthia (pting pting) in her platforms, her shoulders sturdy. hell, the poor girl can't even look her in the eye properly (though she worries if that's a mental thing or a physical thing).
" y'look more like his daughter than i do. "
she doesn't mean to blurt that out, but it sits there, heavy in the air. cordelia's always had the issue of speaking without thinking (almost like someone else we know very fondly). it means a lot of people don't really like her. she's alright with that. " 's all a bit perverted, if y'ask me. issit some deep-seated daddy issues or what? "
and there she goes again, making the worst first impression.
listen, she's trying to be Nice And Polite, but something about ... all of this really puts her teeth on edge. still, cordelia's mouth twists into a smile, something pained for a moment, before she speaks. " how old is she? " laura, she means. she's trying to get to know ... all these lovely people (lovely being a ... well, it's certainly an adjective). @spiritdreamt
" so. you and him. " there isn't any malice (even though she has plenty of reasons to be angry— half her father's age and five years younger than her. cordelia would laugh if it wasn't sad). instead, she's looking at her with curiosity. not as if she has any reason to stake any claim. her father didn't know she existed for 35 years. it wouldn't be nice to come in and say she deserves the attention.

really enamored with an offhand remark i heard where folk horror was described as "pragmatic". i love that. horror that doesnt have time to waste on "but ghosts arent real! but monsters cant exist! what is happening! how can this be!". horror where you hear a howl in the distance and go to gather the wolfsbane and silver because six inch fangs ripping into your neck dont care if youre a believer or not. horror where the impossible nightmare is real because its here and, as is often the case in folk horror, it has been here much longer than you.
ohhhh we're talking about children? tegan's the only one who canonically has a kid (solveig). it's not that they're all childfree it's just that ... many situations have happened that don't lead to children.
