Guards..

[ode-to-fury]

Colon and Nobby outside of the Watch books are just them

[goalieflashflight]

Vimes:

You deserve a reward for putting up with me.

Sybil:

*smiles* You are my reward.

Moist:

(Not willing to be outdone) You deserve a reward for putting up with me.

Adora:

Yeah, you’re a real bitch sometimes.

Rincewind:

The path to inner peace starts with four words.

Rincewind:

Not my fucking problem.

Vimes getting a voice message from Sybil

Vimes imping back a text:

I’m a little busy, is it urgent?

Sybil imping a text:

No, don’t worry dear, just listen later.

Vimes in his office later:

*Presses play on voice message* Sybil’s voice: PUT OUT THAT FIRE FOR GODS SAK…

Background noise: Their newest hire Emily screaming and young Sam laughing

Magrat:

Hey, Granny! I made you this friendship bracelet.

Granny Weatherwax:

I’m not a jewelry person.

Magrat:

Oh, well, that’s okay. You don’t have to wear it-

Granny Weatherwax:

No, I’m gonna wear it. Forever. Back off.

Vetinari: I never tell people right off the bat my sexuality.

Vetinari: I wait.

Vetinari: I wait until they say some homophobic shit

Vetinari: And then I laugh and I’m like “you know I’m queer, right?”

Vetinari: And watch the look of terror on their face.

Vimes:

This is bad.

Vimes:

This is really bad.

Angua:

What is it, sir?

Vimes:

I kissed the patrician.

Angua:

Woah. I owe Cheery so much money-

Nobby:

I wanna make one thing clear. You mess with Fred you mess with me.

Colon:

Yeah

Nobby:

Because we’re boys

Colon:

…Yeah.

Nobby:

We’re friends!

Colon:

Yeah!

Nobby:

We’re boyfriends!!

Colon:

Ye…No. No we’re not. You can’t say that-

Nobby:

We’re boys and we’re friends

Colon:

Yeah that’s better.

Nobby:

So we’re boyfriends.

Colon:

No-

[pratchettquotes]

Colon didn't reply. I wish Captain Vimes were here, he thought. He wouldn't have known what to do either, but he's got a much better vocabulary to be baffled in.

Here's my discworld folder for music sheets. À la - what I did during my summer singing camp at the and of August. But hey it did wake up my artistic soul, even though not the type it was arming at xD.

[n64fan]

Just finished listening to Guards! Guards! again and the scene with the Watch asking for compensation really hit me this time around. Vetinari does his big speech about the absolute evil and darkness in humanity and then Fred Colon and Nobby Nobbs, who we know are not heroes, are not particularly nice people, are not, in short, “good” and they ask for barely any money and a new kettle and a dartboard and they worry that they’re asking for too much.

And Vimes just laughs and laughs at all the upper crust diplomats and Vetinari who can’t understand it. Can’t understand ten dollars a month raise. Can’t understand a kettle. Can’t understand a dart board.

I forgot how much I loved these books.

[aeshnacyanea2000]

Colon had always thought that heroes had some special kind of clockwork that made them go out and die famously for god, country and apple pie, or whatever particular delicacy their mother made. It had never occurred to him that they might do it because they’d get yelled at if they didn’t.

City Watch bring your kid to work day

Aunt Vetinari...

[ansatsu-sha]

Sergeant Colon owed thirty years of happy marriage to the fact that Mrs Colon worked all day and Sergeant Colon worked all night. They communicated by means of notes. He got her tea ready before he left at night, she left his breakfast nice and hot in the oven in the mornings. They had three grown-up children, all born, Vimes had assumed, as a result of extremely persuasive handwriting.

A Summary of Guards! Guards!

Carrot: I'm arresting you for doing crimes!

Everyone in Ankh-Morpork:

(later)

Carrot: I arrested people for doing crimes!

Vimes, Colon and Nobby:

Also, there's a dragon.

"We saw the fire--" Carrot began, running up. "Is it all over?"

"Mr. Vimes saved the day!" said Sergeant Colon excitedly. "Just went straight in and saved everyone, in the finest tradition of the Watch!"

"Fred?" said Vimes, wearily.

"Yessir?"

"Fred, the finest tradition of the Watch is having a quiet smoke somewhere out of the wind at three a.m. Let's not get carried away, eh?"
