Beating people up in little rooms, he knew were that led. And if you did it for a good reason, you'd do it for a bad one. You couldn't say "we are the good guys," and do bad guy things.
Terry Pratchett, Thud (via Samuel Vimes)
........
Terry Pratchett's social commentary is impeccable as always. I love these lines. They're so simple yet so raw.

One little thing that Jon Culshaw does in the new City Watch audiobooks is that when characters talk, they often chuckle, especially when the situation is silly or when characters are worried. His Vimes does it a lot when he isn't in Commanding Officer mode / Angry. His voice goes all soft and he chuckles almost as a defense. Love little details like that!
Like, I'm listening to Thud! right now and Cheery and Vimes are talking about the exploding cabbage stamps and instead of sounding annoyed they're both like "lol, remember when they caught fire?" "Pffft yes, and I can still not get the smell off me" it's so sweet.

Dante: Hold it! There's something we'd better sort before this goes any further! Vergil: Yeah? Dante: Yes. We're both wearing nothing, we're standing in what, you may have noticed, is increasingly turning into mud, and we're squaring up to fight. Okay. But there's something missing, yes? Vergil: And that is . . . ? Dante: A paying audience? We could make a fortune.

the thud! girl night is one of those scenes that is like so unfunny on paper ("what's a screaming orgasm"/"looks like we got to you just in time, girl!") in the same way that bridesmaids type raunchy girl comedies of the same time period don't hold up.......and yet. the power of sally.

Remember when I predicted a character's death? Thankfully it wasn't my man's Quamar even though this is how he'd react to his own death probably. But damn someone did end up dying in the Deadwoods and its rough.
