Disclaimer: None of it's mine, and even the pairing idea I nicked from [info]raistmimi.
A/N: Plotbunnies are Crowley's invention, I swear.


“Stop flirting with my car, you mechanical whore!” Crowley screeched at the slightly battered turquoise vehicle that was matching the Bentley’s ninety-miles-an-hour down a deserted English highway. It swerved in front of them, shaking its tail lights flirtatiously. The Bentley purred in appreciation, causing the demon to glare daggers at the dashboard.

"Don’t you even think about it!” he snarled. “I raised you better than that! Have you no class?” The engine whined mournfully, but relented to its master’s will.

The Ford Anglia was having none of it. “Stubborn wench,” Crowley growled as the car dropped back to sidle up to the Bentley’s passenger side. The demon raised his hand, and, (the Bentley’s engine hiccupping worriedly), snapped his fingers. There was a startled ‘put-put’ from the Anglia, and its tires squealed as it attempted to stay on the road. It stuttered to a halt, the engine revving desperately.

The Bentley was quiet all the way home, its rear view mirror focused on the turquoise car in the distance until it could see nothing but blacktop.



Aziraphale had always had a soft spot for pitiful, abandoned creatures. True, a Ford Anglia was not exactly a creature, and the angel was not that fond of cars, but it sputtered its engine at him so despondently that he could not help but want to take it home. “There, there, my dear,” he said, patting its trunk. “Let’s get you off this shoulder, shall we?.”

A few repair men, a miracle or two, and a nice robin’s egg blue spray job later, the Ford Anglia found itself happily parked outside Aziraphale's dusty little bookshop, feeling as if it were in the sixties again. It bathed in the sunlight, winking its headlights occasionally as particularly handsome cars that passed, and was quite pleased with the number of appreciative honks it received.

However, it was not until dusk that the Anglia knew it was in Heaven. There was a soft hum of an engine run by something much more persevering than gasoline, and the Bentley of its dreams came rolling down the street, its sleek black cover rolled back invitingly.



“ANGEL!” Crowley stormed into the bookshop, nearly taking the front door of its hinges. “Your car is humping my Bentley!”

Dear hell, I had to write a drabble-thing with that pairing once and it turned out awful. How did you get yours to work so well?!

Damn you and by the way, that was great.

. . . Okay. That is officially the weirdest thing I have ever seen, and I've read genderbenders, mpreg and that fic where Crowley and Aziraphale become My Little Ponies. (Sorry, lost link. Could anyone dredge it up for me?) But it was weird in a good way. Kinda cute. Car-porn!

You haven't by any chance seen this?

This is amazing. I was giggling almost the entire way through, because everyone was perfectly IC, the poor old Bentley was in desperate need of some loving and I just adored it. :D :D

Er. I think you meant rear view mirror instead of review mirror and you forgot to add the 's to Aziraphale in front of bookshop. Er, that's all. Sorry if I'm nitpicking...

Other than that, it was hilarious. :)

*facepalm* Thank you so much. This is why I need to get things edited before I let them loose on the world.

I'm glad you like it!

Indeed it is! And I object to the idea that either of the cars has a gender. I'm pretty sure they're gender neutral, cars lacking any difference 'under the carriage" so-to-speak.

I know there is a picture, pencil, hand drawn, of this fic (humping cars!) floating around the internet somewhere. Any chance someone could find it? I haven't had any luck.
