"Isn't it lovely?"
Crowley looked at the... *vehicle*, eyebrow raised. Aziraphael beamed at him.
"I bought it to potter around town in, like you with your Bentley. I might even take a trip to the countryside..."
Crowley barely supressed the urge to clap his hands over the Bentley's ears, partly because it was undignified and partly because he wasn't *entirely* sure where such ears would be located.
"I do not *potter*," he hissed. "My Bentley doesn't *potter*."
"Well pardon me, I'm sure. I bought mine to potter in."
"It's a mini, angel. Those things will never do anything *other* than potter. The Bentley, on the other hand, is a beautiful machine, and to describe it as pottering is an insult to it!" He pushed his sunglasses back up his nose and tried to relax, uncomfortable at the hurt look on Aziraphael's face. "Isn't white a bit of a cliche?" he said at length.
"Well yours is *black*," answered the angel, in a subdued tone of voice.
"Yes, but black's *stylish*."
"I *like* white." Aziraphael sounded stubborn now, but there was still a faint wounded edge to his voice.
"Oh for Heaven's... look, angel, I didn't mean to shout at you. I'm sorry, alright?" The smile that lit the angel's face was almost worth the taste of humble pie. He swallowed his pride.
"It's a very nice... car, angel." He mentally apologised to the Bentley for bracketing them together.
Aziraphael smiled smugly at him. "That wasn't so hard, was it Crowley?"
I have No Idea what the heck that was about. A random GO snippet with no plot, no point, and a mini. The mini has a name, but it hasn't been mentioned, and now I feel obliged to write something slightly more substantial about it.
Kill me.
And yes, this was all an excuse to use my new Good Omens icon. *g*
