Spontaneous Drabbles

[roruna]

I know I posted some quite recently but I had my music on shuffle and a song started playing that I've been wanting to write a drabble for and I thought 'awww, man!' and then when that one ended another song that I've been wanting to write a drabble for started. The universe is enabling me.

Am I going to have to put a choking hazard warning on my drabbles from now on? But I gotta admit I got quite attached to the 'he's not gay! he's a watchman!' line.

I've had that happen to me online actually, in a play-by-post rpg and it drove me Absolutely Bananas because I couldn't figure out if I just taking the RP too personally or if I had reason to genuinely dislike this person. Turned out my intuition was right and he actually was a prick.

- She bit her tongue for years about not really liking them, and here comes someone who doesn't mess about when it comes to letting them know they're upper class twits. -

I do have this notion that one of the things she likes about him* is that he does and says things that she doesn't think she can get away with. For a given value of 'get away with'. Vimes' mouth does get him in trouble. I suppose just getting past his mental filters counts as 'getting away with it' to her. My point is, with Vimes she gets to be a bitch by proxy.

*besides him being a total fox, I mean.
