“Commander Vimes didn't like the phrase 'The innocent have nothing to fear', believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like 'The innocent have nothing to fear'.” -- Discworld (Snuff)

I do think that William 'I only tell the truth' de Worde and Moist 'I only tell lies' von Lipwig are physically incapable of being im the same room. There is a forcefield.

this headache bestows me rage even god should be afraid of

im just someones weird mutual

don't worry i will be that one note on your terrible fucking posts. Because i love you. you fool

hello beloveds ☺️

yes there are the horrors but at least im aro

So I read Snuff ages ago when I was picking up a few PTerry books at random deciding if I wanted to read more. I loved Vimes in that, but didn’t realize until some time after that was the last Vimes book. I also gathered the impression that Snuff Vimes is very different than he is in his first starring role, but. I’m 75 pages into Gaurds! and I am kind of losing it?!?!!!! I want to wrap him in a blanket and give him tea that he’ll probably refuse to drink and tell him that I’m SO proud of him and even though he won’t believe me yet someday he will be too!!!!

god anon i know EXACTLY how you feel every time i reread guards guards i go a tiny bit little bit a lot insane about how much vimes changed and how far he's come and also the message terry was sending with his character that your life DOESN'T just end in your thirties and you can still turn it all around if you just try. and he DID. i love him sooo much

yes there are the horrors but at least im aro

The horrors persist but so do the aros

can we please get goofy silly aromantic people in our media thank you

Hhhhave this. A fmkwer flower i mean sorry im broken i cant type- you're definitely gonna overfeed me with all these vetvimes posts but keep up the good work. :3

STOOP ILY

i think the craziest thing about "someone got past his guard. i'm his guard and i didn't see it coming" is that vimes is not ACTUALLY vetinari's guard. its stated multiple times in the books that vetinari has his own personal palace guards yet vimes CHOOSES to think of himself as vetinari's guard. as HIS. like. it's never really been his responsibility to protect vetinari and still he has SINCE GUARDS GUARDS taken on that job bc he's the only one who he TRUSTS to do it. he would literally take a bullet for vetinari and say he did it bc its his job but IT'S NOT!!!! ITS LITERALLY NOT. he's a CITY WATCH COMMANDER. NOTHING to actually do with protecting the patriarch. AND if someone else anyone else would be the patriarch he wouldn't be doing it. vetinari is HIS, his to kill and his to protect. insane
