    Summary

    “Rocky not explain question?” asked Adrian slowly.
    “Busy,” said Rocky, sheepish.
    “Had four years on ship.”
    “Busy then too.”
    Adrian skittered back and forth, which I think equated to a human throwing both hands up in exasperation. “With what question?”
    “Science!”
    “Whole time science question? Four years!”
    “Is much science in universe!”

    --

    Rocky has neglected to explain some very important cultural context to Grace.

    Summary

    It was going to kill him, this sense of calm, this willingness to let things go, Lord Vetinari thought as he stepped into the carriage outside the Assassins Guild.

    Summary

    Despite how level-headed and rational Drumknott usually is, when it comes to Lord Vetinari, it would seem, he cannot always think in a straight line.

    Takes place after The Truth. For the prompt ‘remedy/cure’.

    The Seamstresses' Guild Ball by for FormlessVoidbeast

    Summary

    At the annual Seamstresses' Guild Ball, Drumknott observes something about the Patrician that makes him question his relationship with Lord Vetinari...and a whole lot of other things. But events overtake them. This isn't set at a particular timepoint, but it's after Moist is introduced. I'm rather lax with authenticity over the timeline and people's exact ages; I don't see it as hugely important for this.
