Prompt: Aziraphale/Crowley - Religion.
Words: 343
Domestic fluff - Aziraphale and Crowley filling in the census.
Religion was a tricky thing, especially when you were a fallen angel and the original snake of Eden.
It probably wasn’t any better for Aziraphale, Crowley thought, tapping his pen against the census form. He’d be expected to fill out the religion question on it and do it properly.
“Have you finished your part yet?” Aziraphale said, being his cup of tea with him to the table.
“No. What’s the point. No one reads it,” Crowley replied. “I could put anything. It wouldn’t be right if I filled it truthfully, now would it?”
“You're supposed to. There’s no reason not to. It’s not like you’re going to get in trouble.” Aziraphale glanced down at the census paperwork. “Obviously you’ll have to make something up for your age and where you were born. Just so it looks right.”Crowley slouched back in his chair. “But where’s the fun in that? That’s boring. I want to write something fun. You could even think of it as a good deed, something to prevent whoever has to read these from being bored to death.”
“You just said you didn’t think anybody would look at it.”
“Can change my mind, can’t I?” Go
“Writing in any old thing isn’t right. After all that's why there was that whole problem with that space film religion thing last time,” Aziraphale said, a little peevishly. He took a biscuit from the decorative tin that had suddenly appeared on the table, and gestured towards the form with it. “Gabriel was most put out by it.”
“Gabriel is put out by everything that’s not holy choirs and righteous smiting.”
Aziraphale shook his head, but smiled fondly at the same time. Crowley wasn’t wrong about a certain Archangel. “So what are you going to write?”
Crowley took a moment, smiled, and quickly wrote something before turning the form round so Aziraphale could see.
Lapsed satanist.
“Crowley! You can’t put that.”
“Just did.” He flipped through the form for the section about employment and wrote, ‘Great tempter and part time snake.’ Just to see Aziraphale’s reaction.
