First game of Talisker Theft Cluedo complete - hastily drawn, very unfair gameboard and all.

i love humphrey bc he’s not just stopping progress in his tracks, he’s putting so much effort into it. like he memorised newspaper cuttings and hansard transcripts about hacker to make a good impression. he memorised all the designations of those buildings, whether genuine or not. it’s not just like. underhand tricks of the trade and listing hypothetical problems, he works his arse off memorising and making sure he knows everything just to maintain the status quo. i want an episode where hacker or bernard take his jacket off the coat stand by accident or something, and find all the flashcards he’s got in there.

““You took an oath to uphold the law and defend the citizens without fear or favor,” said Vimes. “And to protect the innocent. That’s all they put in. Maybe they thought those were the important things. Nothing in there about orders, even from me. You’re an officer of the law, not a soldier of the government.””

— Terry Pratchett, Night Watch
