❝ okay, so what if the last car i actually drove was a model t. it’s the same basic principle! don’t tell me that you humans have made driving cars that much more complicated in the last century. ❞ honestly, he didn’t see what the big deal was. he didn’t even need to drive! god had given all the angels their wings for a reason, and it wasn’t just to look pretty and menacing!
and if his displeasure and reluctance stemmed from his extreme dislike of cars, then that was for him to know, and no one else.
gabriel may be able to appreciate them from a distance, but that was it. cars were too confining and too slow for the archangel’s liking, and he’d never really trusted them after a little hiccup with the previously mentioned model t. if gabriel had to be the one at the wheel, he preferred using the little cheat code that was his grace. which he didn’t exactly have at the moment, or his wings, which was why he was even in this situation.
❝ This is literally why I shouldn’t trust you. ❜ How can Gabriel not see that this is a goddamn problem ? Driving is an experience ; hell , people buy cars for a reason besides from transport from Point A to Point B. Winged bastards won’t get it , but they have to at least try and appreciate the aesthetic , the function , the POWER his Baby has.
❝ I can’t trust a man who drove a grandpa coach like that in what , 17th century ?? ❜ Nose scrunches , eyes returning to the road to make up for the split second lost just so he can give the archangel a questioning , judging stare. ❝ I trust people like how I trust them to respect me and my car first. And trust me , you’ve failed step one . ❜
Angels might have lived long , but they haven’t lived enough. Or not at all , if they literally did not even try having the satisfaction of appreciating simple mundane things like driving ; which would be very useful to them in case of emergencies like this that they’re in a meatsuit with only two legs and two arms.
❝ Self - driving cars are not a thing yet , don’t stress yourself. Whatever ‘ complicated ’ shit you think about cars , you still need to ride one every time you bust out a wing anyway. ❜
