Terry Pratchett, you goddamn genius wordsmith. The world is poorer for your absence.

“‘That bastard has just walked into the place!’ she hissed. ‘Reacher Gilt! I’ll just kill him and join you for the pudding …’ ‘You can’t do that!’ hissed Moist. ‘Oh? Why not?’ ‘You’re using the wrong knife! That’s for the fish! You’ll get into trouble!’”

ok but the way Aziraphale and Crowley are the main characters despite contributing absolutely nothing to the plot except making everything worse once or twice and then not helping anyone ever will never not be funny

Aziraphale/Crowley amnesia fic would be so funny because…of course it involves infinitely tender caretaking and softly angsting over “oh no this version of him that doesn’t remember is hitting on me even though real him doesn’t love me so I must control myself” but also on the other hand it also involves the absolute comedy of whichever one of them doesn’t have amensia having to cover for the other with head office,,,,aziraphale doing crowley voices at the tv screen like “yes, I’ve been a very VERY wily serpent. wiling around. much much sin to be had by all, absolutely corkingly diabolical schemes…such as, uh, causing more poverty” and everyone in hell is really impressed like “oh usually you just make the tube delayed in the morning. really great change of pace!”

“You know what day it is, Ping?” Said Colon.

“Er…25th of May, Sarge.”

“And you know what that means, Ping?”

“Er…”

“It means,” said Nobby, “that anyone important enough to ask where we’re going-,”

“-knows where we’ve gone,” said Fred Colon.

The door slammed behind them.

It’s the Glorious 25th of May! For the first time, I’ve done art in advance. Out of all these, I’m proudest of the first one.
