Summary: After the Apocalypse comes, love, home, god, and loyalty are ideas stolen from fairy tales. But the love mecha named Kinky Dean - with Sam the mechanical dog by his side - wants to make the saddest angel in world happy in the only way he knows how. Together they will remake the Impala, the woman they all know as Mary, the future world itself. But can a home be found in a future where everything real is obsolete?

Author's notes: A huge thank you to
xxamlaxx, with all my gratitude, for beta reading. And for everything else! She is the best listener, and had to listen to me whine way too much this year. ♥ ♥ ♥ She is also all-around fantastic. I can't even say. She's the best. I hope she knows this.
Thanks to
karabou !!!! For being such a fantastic artist and deciding to take this on in such a crazy summer. She amazed me with her generosity and hard work (and then awed me with her idea for a gorgeous background). I'm so glad to have finally met her :)
