Main Points:
Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Constantine|Hellblazer
Summary: faster to read
Word Count: 175
Rating: Teen, with the warnings and a little bad language. because it wouldn't be constantine or hellblazer without the warnings or the bad language.
warnings: the usual touch of self-loathing

        “What, are you a fan?” the vampire sneers, and two can play at that game.
        Constantine smiles, promise of hell in that look.  “Nah, you wish, mate.  If anything, it’s the other way round.”  While the vampire reels a little, clearly not expecting the scouse, however faded from a stint across the pond, he continues.  “I’ll give you one chance.  You and yours, sod off, now.”
        “Or what?” the undead laughs, covering unease with bravado.
        The magician pours the contents of his lighter over his hand, then turns it over and lights it.  “Or we find out how much hellfire is needed to get to the center of your Tootsie Pop.”  He curls his tongue around the end, flirtatious and dangerous all in one, because if there’s anything he’s learned from bullies the world over a little flirtation is all they need to fly into a rage.  There’s a part of him, the self-centered bastard, that finds him attractive, of course, in the way one would fall in love with a mirror.  But as much as he flirts with evil, trying to kill innocents isn’t exactly a turn-on, even for a sorry soul like his.
