Title: The Big Premiere
Words: 100
Rating: G, I'm afraid
Summary: 19th century. Crowley and Aziraphale go to the opera.
Author's note: My experience with opera is very limited, but I have seen this one. And...crossover alert! "Celebrity" cameo.
Crowley couldn’t believe he’d let Aziraphale wake him for this. Aziraphale couldn’t believe he’d let Crowley “improve” his wardrobe – those trousers weren’t meant for sitting so long.
Still, it was an Event, and Aziraphale clutched Crowley’s arm whenever he was assaulted by an orchestra blast or violated by a soprano. Ludicrous story, but the music certainly had a je ne sais quoi, or at least an ich weiß nicht.
“She doesn’t look like any Valkyrie I ever met,” Crowley said.
Aziraphale, moved anyway, dabbed at his eyes.
“So melodramatic,” muttered a one-eyed man across the aisle. “I only grounded her.”
If that doesn't do it for ya, have a picture of Senator Obama trying to do something athletic in very nicely-fitting jeans.
That was swiped from this image thread at Daily Kos that made my eyes water from laughing.
OK, now back to work.
